@Peter_Coogan@RedWaveForever1@aintscarylarry Nope. U can’t indict a sitting President. Then da SC ruled u can’t indict him for “official acts” while in office
So Jack Smith issued a , "superseding indictment”, not against “President Trump” but his crimes as “Candidate Trump”
The BBC will use that same path against him
@GuntherEagleman 2) Somebody posted that the only reason Mamdani was able to balance the city’s budget was because he got a $3B “bailout” from the State.
Perhaps
Meanwhile, NYC is also responsible for about 55% of the State of New York’s tax revenue, to the tune of nearly $70 BILLION!
@GuntherEagleman 1) Ok
“And now, the rest of the story”:
NYC has an annual budget of about $120B
And 90% of its revenue comes mostly from local sales property n business taxes
@John_Beckham14 Man, I miss her
She was one of my favorite nightly news n information journalists
She was soo smooth, highly intelligent, but “folksy” n relatable to average folk
Side note: NGL, I thought she was kinda cute too! 😍
🤣😂🤣
@Sassafrass_84 Well, I’m no lawyer, so correct me if I’m wrong, but the plaintiff in a civil lawsuit is usually deposed by the defendants attys
UNDER OATH
And perjury is a CRIMINAL offense
But hey, go n do it
And I’ll get my popcorn
🤣😂🤣😂🤣
@OohWah90@7Veritas4 Ok
But to be fair, how much does NYC pay in taxes to the State of New York? 🤔
“New York City taxpayers contribute 54.5% of total New York State revenues, which translates to roughly $68.8 billion annually”
So who b bailing who? 🤔
😂🤣😂🤣
@ULTRA_MAJESTY@fire_starter457 How did that one work out?
They didn’t practice wat they preached back then
Just like what Christian nationalist are doing today
@PatsKam I went to Catholic school and in 4th grade, Sister Naomi showed us a picture of Jesus standing at a door. She asked us, “Whats missing on the door?”
A: There was no knob or handle
Moral: It’s up to YOU to open the door to have Jesus enter into YOUR life!
Amen?!!

They’re take whatever it is THEY want to satisfy n fill THEIR bellies. throw the rest of it away, n dare ANYBODY touch what’s left!
This is NOT the AMERICA I grew up in! 🇺🇸
FUCK EM!😡
@BeingJWood There are many States (mostly Red ones too) that receive MORE in Federal funding than they pay into Federal taxes.
I call it, “ Federal redistribution of wealth and assistance to states in need, in order to support their people n economy.”
In other words:
“Socialism!” 😂
