Good thing the child has no association with conservatives or the driver might have a gofundme page.
Bill Maher asks how the government is “failing the poor so badly” when he pays “60 PERCENT” of his earnings in taxes.
“Last week was tax day… I paid the government probably almost 60% of what I earn. That’s a lot.”
“And I… wouldn’t mind if Bernie Sanders would stop saying the rich don’t pay taxes.”
“The top 10% pay 72% of all federal income taxes. And the bottom half, 3%.”
“The Democratic Socialists talk about socialism like we don’t already have a lot: Social Security, unemployment, Medicare, nutritional assistance, Medicaid, Obamacare, disability, housing subsidies.”
“How can you be soaking the rich and failing the poor so badly? How can it be that the federal government alone took in over 5 trillion in taxes last year, and we still need that?”
“Are we really this incompetent and corrupt?”
Based on recent history (especially 2025–early 2026 under the current Trump administration), there is a good chance of some meaningful accountability—primarily through funding cuts, terminations, and reviews—but "true" accountability in the sense of clawbacks, firings, prosecutions, or personal consequences for executives/lobbyists remains unlikely or rare.
A hospice location in Signal Hill, California has been operating for 9 years but their phone goes to voicemail, location is empty
Despite this they quadrupled their patients from 2022 to 2023 and billed Medicare $1.2 million in 2023
This is right next to small building with 700 companies headquartered in it
“Take a look at this quiet building in Signal Hill, California. Doesn't look like the headquarters of hundreds of trucking companies right? But federal records show nearly 700 freight companies tied to this single address”
Los Angeles is the fraud capital of the world
@WallStreetApes When you prioritize blaming external factors (other people, circumstances, "the system," luck, etc.), making excuses, or feeling perpetually powerless, it leads to stagnation rather than growth.
After all the whataboutism & rationalization & partisanship, it comes down to this: You can vote for a sexual predator, or not vote for a sexual predator. #ALSenate
No, Trump did not give Iran cash — not pallets of money, not a direct U.S. government payment, and not anything like the $1.7 billion Obama-era settlement (which was Iran's own frozen funds from a pre-1979 arms deal, delivered in cash due to banking sanctions).Here's exactly what happened instead:
On March 20, 2026, the Trump administration (via Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent) issued a temporary 30-day general license/waiver.reuters.com
It only applies to Iranian oil already loaded on ships at sea (roughly 140 million barrels worth).
This lets buyers (e.g., allies in Asia like India, Japan, Thailand, Vietnam) purchase and take delivery of that existing oil without violating U.S. sanctions.
The goal: flood the global market with supply to drive down skyrocketing oil prices (which had surged past $100–$112/barrel amid the U.S.-Israel conflict with Iran and disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz).
At current prices, that volume could generate around $14 billion in revenue for Iran if they get paid for it.

@nycDSA@GovKathyHochul@BernieSanders When you interview young communist indoctrinated by the system you can expect them to preach what they were taught.
@Jaybefaunt@mehdirhasan Establishment candidates always kill more Americans and love endless wars. Then they use the media to keep us uninformed, divided and partisan.
@ControlAI@JOEBOTxyz Impossible and to expensive to regulate. Just educate and expose. Require full transparency as the only regulatory policy and actually hold people accountable
In short: A real $2B EPA grant went to a coalition loosely linked to Abrams (via one partner org), it became controversial under the new administration, funds were frozen amid probes and lawsuits, and full recovery remains unresolved. But the post inflates it into "Abrams founded a shell NGO → got $2B personally/politically → zero consequences," which aligns with recurring conservative critiques but doesn't hold up to scrutiny from neutral sources.
This fits a pattern of amplified claims around Biden-era green spending (e.g., Elon Musk's comments on similar cases), but the Abrams-specific version is more distortion than fact.
