That Red Blip? 🤔
A plea for common sense fiscal responsibility... we got Commies in the House & Senate 🗳 for more of the same by overriding the Veto 🔥
FYI- the BEARS aren't the only one to flee, just the latest in a long line 🇺🇸
LETTERS FROM THE FRONT-
#JBtheHutt explodes the number of illegal voters to force actual citizens to pay for foreigners getting a free ride in his Commie 1 Party dictatorship.
He blames #Trump incessantly when this pic shows its his policy destroying the Land of Lincoln 💯
Pritzker’s Springfield Mandates Trigger $3.1 Billion Cook County Tax Explosion
Governor J.B. Pritzker is directly driving the crushing property tax crisis hammering Cook County families. Since Pritzker took office in 2019, the county's total tax burden has skyrocketed by $3.1 billion, reaching a historic $19.9 billion for the 2025 tax year.
Illinois' crushing state-level policies are directly causing individual bills to spike:
Unfunded State Mandates: Springfield routinely forces expensive operational rules on public schools and local governments without providing state cash, legally forcing local districts to hike property taxes to cover the bills.
Expanding Pension Debt: Pritzker has repeatedly signed off on expanded public-sector pension benefits, ballooning the state's legacy liabilities. Now, nearly 50% of Cook County's property tax revenue, $9 billion annually, is devoured entirely by pension and municipal debt instead of local services.
Homeowners Pay the Price: Instead of cutting government spending when commercial properties lost value post-pandemic, local taxing bodies capitalized on state allowances to shift the burden. Homeowners are now stuck paying for 80% of all new tax increases.
To reverse this decline, Darren Bailey's campaign platform explicitly vows to prioritize immediate property tax relief to ensure families aren't taxed out of their homes. A centerpiece of the Bailey/Del Mar planincludes a bold proposal to cap property taxes at 1% of a home's purchase price. As Bailey states, "The American Dream is owning your own home. Not renting it from the government forever." By cutting waste in Springfield and auditing state grants, conservative leadership aims to provide meaningful relief and put thousands of dollars back into the pockets of Illinois homeowners.
@RealSpitfire Hey @CivilRights we probably should see the rest of Maine's "Mailing List", right? 🤔
Everyone with a functioning brain knows there's more than one of these boxes getting sent 💯
If Microsoft is offering buyouts and early retirement to 60,000 employees, then I guess they won't need any H-1B visas this year or next year?
@StephenM can you let us know if Microsoft is cancelling all of their H-1B visa applications?

First Round
Abstentions: 33.5 million (21%)
Blank votes: 2.3 million (2%)
Invalid votes: 3.7 million (3%)
Voter turnout: 125.3 million (79%)
Other candidates: 9.5 million (8%)
Second Round
Abstentions: 30.4 million (21%)
Blank votes: 1.4 million (1%)
Invalid votes: 2.7 million (2%)
Voter turnout: 128.1 million (81%)
Lula: 64.1 million (51.8%)
Flávio: 59.7 million (48.2%)
Between abstentions, blank votes, and invalid votes, they somehow found 5 million additional votes.
Add that to the 9.5 million votes cast for other candidates in the first round, and you have a pool of approximately 14 million new votes.
Flávio gained 4 million votes, going from 56 million to 60 million.
Lula gained 10 million votes, going from 54 million to 64 million.
All figures are rounded.
Of this pool of 14 million votes, Flávio received 29%, while Lula received 71%.
And this happened despite the fact that 10 million of those 14 million votes came from voters who had supported other candidates with more right-leaning political profiles.
The whole thing is so extraordinary that it is extremely difficult to believe.
It’s as if, in just three weeks, voters who had signaled a turn to the right suddenly made a sharp turn to the left.
It’s hard not to think about those two extra hours.
Stealing elections is what #Commies do... the governmental authority responsible for ensuring a fair election was subverted, muted, & eliminated by the corrupt henchman of a dictator
#Bolosonaro was robbed 💯
