The only business I engaged in was selling my paintings. I averaged about $225k per year in income over the 4 years of my Dad’s presidency. Now you may be outraged by that but where is your outrage over Don Jr opening a private members club next to the White House called the Executive Branch club where the stated purpose is to rub shoulders with senior White House officials and Cabinet members. And the initiation fee is $500,000. Where is your outrage over Peter Navarro calling from inside the WH to push the Pentagon to grant the largest loan it has ever made to any company for a rare earth startup backed by Don Jr. Where is your outrage when Donald Trump took a Boeing 747 from the government of Qatar. Four hundred million dollars. Over a billion dollars in tax payer money for upgrades. The most valuable gift any foreign government has ever given the United States. And when he leaves office, it goes to his library.
He sued his own IRS for ten billion dollars and settled. And the settlement declares the IRS, and I am quoting the filing here, is “forever barred” from pursuing its audits of him, his family, and his companies.
Today, a congresswoman lied to have me detained by Capitol Police.
Why? To try to silence our work against U.S. wars in the Middle East and sanctions on Cuba.
Instead of defending these wildly unpopular policies, members of Congress target the activists working to stop them.
Thankfully, I was released without charges.
No amount of intimidation will change that the majority of people in the U.S. want to stop U.S. wars and aggression. We won't be silenced.
@CommunityNotes are nice and all. But by the time they are approved, millions of people have seen fictitious information. Most of it comes from @WhiteHouse
Republicans are standing next to signs saying Democrats were “trans-ing the mice” because they don’t want people to realize they’re talking about transgenic mice—genetically modified mice used in lifesaving medical research on cancer, Alzheimer’s, diabetes, and neurological disorders. People could die because Republicans saw that important medical research has the word “trans” in it.
@MeidasTouch FFS. This year my refund was damn near nothing. I claim my dependents. It is my last year for 2 of the 3. I will again be paying in to the IRS.
.@bariweiss is sad, small person. She is trying to curry favor with the Trump admin and reporting facts do not mingle with that. @CBS was fine. Scott Pelley is a fine reporter.
