Should Gaetz be AG.

@JV3MJD

Remember when Trump said he was going to fight Boko Haram?

Now the US government is Boko Haram.

AI is very dangerous.

I made a pop song with it. It’s not terribly good. But I can’t get the damn thing out of my head.

I hate myself.

@JV3MJD

Remember when Republicans passed a bipartisan anti-sex trafficking bill and Gaetz was the only one who voted against it?

Now he wants to assure sex trafficking is legal.

Republicans are the problem-rape and pro-child sex party.

Looked her up and still never heard of her.

Is her claim to fame being an asshole?

Because, my goddess, a good chunk of Texans are assholes.

@Horrrflmlvr

This was within my lifetime. I remember all black schools.

Just admit you aren’t protecting women. You aren’t afraid of transgender women.

You’re just an asshole.

What next? Whites only drinking fountains?

"We're not anti-anyone. We're pro-woman. I think it's an important policy for us to continue. It's always been, I guess, an unwritten policy, but now it's in writing,"

I’m sure racists said that as well.

Oh, look who said AIDS is caused by a “gay lifestyle” and not HIV?

“BlackRock, the world’s biggest asset management company, faces a complaint at the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) for allegedly contributing to environmental and human rights abuses around the world through its investments in agribusiness.”

We will have a dead planet, but at least we will be able to retire. 🤦🏻‍♀️

That was NOT due to tax cuts, it was due to a bubble economy created by the dot com. This bubble economy burst (and 9/11 didn’t help) putting the economy on life support up to (and through) the Great Recession. It wasn’t until Biden that actual work to improve the fundamentals (ie not depend on bubbles) happened.

Of course, Trump will break things again.

“The legislation comes after the lawmaker who wrote one of Texas’ recent abortion bans wrote an op-ed in the Houston Chronicle defending the current exceptions as ‘plenty clear.’”

Yes, it’s clear they want to kill women. The law is written that you MUST be on the edge of death (“to save the life” clause)—it does not allow an abortion UNLESS it’s to save your life. Not potentially, NOW. Otherwise it is a crime.

BTW, most (if not all) Boomers are immune to monkey pox.

Why? Because smallpox vax were mandatory. Because science was trusted.

We eliminated smallpox.

Monkeypox won’t hurt seniors.

So explain to me why RFK Jr is smart?

… reducing the deficit.

You can’t give tax cuts and maintain or increase spending. Yet this is the very thing Trump has promised.

If you think it will work, feel free to explain it to me.

… expendable income.

These short-term tax cuts are bogus. They do not help the economy and reduce what Congress can spend which results in MORE borrowing.

BTW this is why REPUBLICANS increase the deficit. They want to give tax cuts but keep expenditures high. In other words they use other countries as a credit card while avoiding paying it back. That ALWAYS ends well, right?

Democrats at least WANT to pay (hence taxes). This is why NOT A SINGLE REPUBLICAN has managed to come close to…

Everything is flat again? Why, because companies adjust to the new normal. If you recall, there was sporadic growth after Trump’s tax cuts but not SUSTAINED growth. This is the same thing we saw under Reagan. Like getting a raise, your salary goes up, you may feel better, but it quickly goes back to sameo-sameo.

In order for businesses to get juiced, you need another tax cut. You should be able to see where this is going.

The REAL solution? Higher wages for workers (which increases
