@TheChiefNerd Mick has it right! Springsteen is p.o.s. and the NYT is a rag.

@ProudSocialist What a bunch of horseshit. As soon as I hear someone whining about lived experience, I know I'm hearing the words of a fool.

Congratulations, @Fender! You're this year's @budlight & @CrackerBarrel. Way to turn what remained of 80 years of legacy into a smoldering pile of ash. Leo's rolling.

On 2nd thought, @gibsonguitar, this you?

A farmer dies in April 2026.

His son inherits the farm. The farm has been in the family since 1847.

The farm consists of: 300 acres of grazing pasture, a farmhouse built in 1892, a barn, a milking parlour, two tractors of varying ages, a Land Rover that runs about 70% of the time, and a herd of 180 Hereford-cross cattle.

On paper, the farm is worth approximately £3.2 million. This is because land near him has been bought recently by a London hedge fund looking for carbon credits, which has dragged the comparable value of every field within forty miles upward to a number nobody local can justify.

In cash, the farm produces a profit of about £28,000 a year in a good year. In a bad year it loses money. The son also works as a fencing contractor three days a week to keep the operation viable.

The inheritance tax bill on a £3.2 million estate, even at the reduced 20% rate, comes to approximately £140,000 after the increased threshold is applied. The son does not have £140,000. The son has never had £140,000. The son has £4,200 in his current account and an overdraft.

The son sells 60 acres to a developer to pay the tax. The developer puts solar panels on the 60 acres. The remaining herd cannot be sustained on the reduced land. The herd is sold. The barn becomes a holiday let.

A different family eats Brazilian beef this Christmas without knowing why the price went up.

The Treasury collects £140,000.

The land never produces British food again.

@vintagemapstore Cool, but based on 19yr old data. Wonder what it is today.

@JasonJournoDC @DailyCaller On the whole, agreed but his endorsement of Butch Jones isn't working well at this point. Didn't work so well for Hershel either. I'm sure there are others. In the end, the candidate matters.

@GovPressOffice Nobody doubts rail is a solid, reliable mass transportation solution. They just doubt your ability to deliver it.

@Crimsontider Hey, isn’t @RickJacksonGA self-funding his own campaign? Square that circle for us, then.

[Chris Collier @escapedTexan72]

Hearing today's news reg @RickJacksonGA 's announcement, I couldn't be more thrilled for Georgians. Mr. Jackson is a man of integrity & determination, lives by the Golden Rule & will serve honorably. He has my vote and full support!

A woman calls into the Persian Manoto News program, saying she is the daughter of a senior commander inside Iran.

Very disturbing conversation.

@IterIntellectus It’s bad. What’s the solution?
