@scotus_wire First party to stack the court, wins

@Riley_Gaines_ They are truly one person. Do they ever disagree with each other? Its creepy, scary.

[ThePersistence @ScottPresler]

Our country is in serious peril.

We don’t have secure elections.

SCOTUS just gave the greenlight for illegal aliens to have children here.

Yet our Senate is on vacation right now & will soon take another vacation in August.

We aren’t a serious nation.

I don't know what broke in the matrix, but watching John Bolton not only plead guilty to a felony but the specific felony he spent decades depicting as the most egregious -- calling for life imprisonment or execution for it -- is a level of karmic justice I didn't know existed.

New Yorkers chose to vote themselves into communism two days after Colombians chose to vote themselves out of it. You can’t fix stupid.

Elon Musk just proved that ownership in America is a legal fiction.

Musk: “You get taxed on what you earn, you get taxed on what you buy, and you get taxed on what you own.”

Think about what property tax actually means.

You worked for decades. Paid it off in full. The deed is in your name.

Stop paying the government its annual fee. Watch them take it and sell it to someone who will.

You never owned that house. You were leasing it from an entity you never signed a contract with.

Income tax tells the same truth in softer packaging.

The government does not take a portion of your earnings. They decide how much of your own labor you are permitted to keep.

That is not semantics. It is a confession of who the system believes your time belongs to first.

Sales tax buries itself in the receipt. Two people exchange value voluntarily. A third party who contributed nothing takes a cut simply for allowing it to happen.

Now stack all three.

Taxed when you create. Taxed when you spend. Taxed when you hold. Taxed again when you die and try to pass it to your children.

At no point in that cycle does the system recognize your output as yours.

Because money is not an abstraction. It is crystallized human lifespan.

Every dollar taxed is an hour you already lived, already bled for, already gone.

The state is not managing an economy. It is claiming dominion over time you will never get back.

And spending it on systems you never asked for and actively oppose.

The institution extracting all of it faces zero obligation to perform. A contractor who delivers nothing gets fired. A bureaucracy that burns through trillions gets a budget increase the next fiscal year.

SpaceX pays taxes to the agencies that obstruct its launches. Tesla funds the regulators drafting rules to shield its competitors.

The builders are not subsidizing government. They are financing their own friction.

The tax code is 74,000 pages long. Not because the economy demands it. Because the extraction had to be buried in enough complexity that you would stop asking who it was designed to protect.

The past belonged to the people who taxed the world.

The future belongs to the people who build it.

53 Years of pain suffering & heartbreak and a guy who ain’t even from here steals the spotlight in 8 minutes & 19 seconds.

8 minutes, 19 seconds.
The mayor spoke longer than Brunson, longer than the coach, longer than the owner, and longer than Alicia Keys performed.
At a Knicks championship parade.
The parade was supposed to be about the Knicks.

[RiverDude @Martobo1]

@OANN How about lowering taxes? Maybe get a NJ Transit train to run on time?

[Nayib Bukele @nayibbukele]

It’s a very simple concept, really.

[RiverDude @Martobo1]

@TheNFLDrop Rebrand= good idea. Getting out of NJ = great idea. Moving to L.I.= worse idea ever. Also, winning first will make the whole process easier.
