Now do the actual rich and you’ll see the argument. You can walk and chew gum at the same time, so you can argue about taxing the rich and cutting wasteful spending at the same time.
Everyone shouts "Tax the Rich"... but look at the facts.
A $150k earner pays around $30,600 in federal tax.
A $25k earner pays about $1,200.
It takes 25 people on $25k to contribute what one person on $150k does.
So why drive high earners out of the U.S. when they already shoulder most of the burden?
The problem isn't how much tax is collected.
The problem is how much the government wastes.
Stop blaming the rich.
Start holding the government to account.
𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: Patriots HC Mike Vrabel and former NFL insider Dianna Russini rented a boat together back in 2021 while she was pregnant.
Vrabel and Russini were the only people on board for their 2- to 3-hour rental, according to a source.
Dianna gave birth to that child shortly after and named her son Michael.
The Russini - Vrabel files never end 🤦♂️

Introducing our proposed name for Cleveland’s new WNBA team… THE Ohio Wolverines.
The Midwest work ethic is a real thing. As someone who has spent a lot of time on both sides of the lake, I can tell you that Ohio and Michigan have far more similarities than differences.
We’re hoping Detroit follows suit with its WNBA franchise and embraces that same spirit of regional unity by naming its new team the "Michigan Buckeyes," as Cleveland and Detroit grow the game together from the shores of Lake Erie, the Midwest’s own Mediterranean.
Be sure to grab your official Ohio Wolverines merch—available online at https://t.co/tiG9WDIu00 within the next 60 days. Use code APRILFOOLS to receive 15% off your first order.
So… how do you like the name? We love it!

3. Wilt 62 (78-pt game)

The RnR HoF has long transitioned from a sacred ground for JUST rock and roll. So this take is dumb on multiple fronts.
You didn’t come from the ghetto, but rock and roll def came from them melanin folk…
“It’s not my music. I don’t come from the ghetto. It doesn’t speak my language. I said in print many times: Hip-hop does not belong in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, nor does opera, symphony orchestras … it’s called the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.”

Bad Bunny lost the most viewership from the second quarter to a halftime performance in the history of the Super Bowl. (Halftime viewership typically grows, he lost ten million viewers on NBC). This is a disaster for the NFL, but most left wing sports media won’t cover it.
This is how unintelligent people think the world works. They think seeing people of the same color on a TV or movie screen has real impact. Yeah, Asians dominate academia because they saw Bruce Lee in a karate movie. That's it.
The irony here is this guy’s listing off every country on the American continents, smugly suggesting we need a 1st grade geography lesson when he’s the one who doesn’t understand that in English, "America" is used as a shorthand for "United States of America," the only nation with "America" in its official name.
It’s kind of ironic how Bad Bunny was dancing on an electrical post at the Super Bowl halftime show.
Puerto Rico isn’t exactly known for having reliable electricity.
He could have highlighted the electrical grid crisis in PR and done some good with his platform, but he chose degeneracy!
Purposefully turning off the halftime show
Let’s rally together and show big corporations they can’t just do whatever they want without consequences
(which equals viewership for them)
You are their benefit. Realize you have power.
Turn off this halftime. A fake American citizen performing who publicly hates America. I cannot support that.
If it was just a normal rap battle, I’d get this take. What Kendrick/Drake did was insanely personal. It wasn’t about who was the best, it was literally just about tearing the other person down. Entertaining, but def wasn’t worth it
However, THIS is the part that Cole’s fans have a REAL HARD TIME grasping.
After what he did in 2024, real hip-hop heads will forever look at him sideways. No matter how good the bars are, they will forever give him that 😒
It’s the ugly truth..
