Right? I mean that’s why we elected a billionaire who will let billionaires keep more of their billions… attempt to cut a massive portion of federal government jobs (you realize that means unemployed and likely a decent amount of welfare? Oh wait they’re just lazy but the billionaires… now, they’re just like you!).
Anyway, just another example as reported in todays Morning Brew
TurboTax finding you an extra 12 bucks each year is pretty chill, but perhaps not as chill as saving $8 billion on your taxes via an intricate network of ungovernable loopholes. According to a New York Times analysis, that is roughly how much Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, the US’ 10th-richest person, will save on his estate taxes by routing his wealth through a series of trusts and foundations.
Huang’s estate is technically supposed to pay 40% of his ~$127 billion net worth to the government, as per the estate tax law that dates back to the early 20th century, when the US realized it needed to keep dynastic wealth in check. But in recent years, the estate tax has become more of a suggestion and less of a rule as lawyers grow increasingly cunning about how to safeguard their clients’ riches and the budget-depleted IRS becomes powerless to enforce the law. A proper enforcement would have saved the government $120 billion last year, which the New York Times notes could more than triple the federal funding for cancer and Alzheimer’s research.—AE
Let’s just reiterate that last part, “could more than triple the federal funding for cancer and Alzheimer’s research.”… but yeah 🙄🤬

Not to mention endangering women’s lives with the overturning of Roe v Wade, really not being all there mentally (sorry, there should be a max age for a president – I’m including Biden), and just being a narcissistic asshole.
I seriously have no idea how any man with a daughter, nor how any woman could vote for the pig. And speaking of women… why is it that women seem to hate other women so much? Aside from all the other things wrong with this it just perpetuates the myth that women can’t lead. How is it that an entire sex couldn’t stand up for one of their own and make this no contest?
Does “the little guy” sitting out in BFE or even suburbia think this asshole really cares about them, or is anything like them? Or is it just that the “tuff guy” turns you on?
Or maybe, you “just didn’t like either of them” so you did a “protest vote”. Well great f’n job because what you really did was vote for Mr T you spineless sack. I honestly don’t love Harris all that much, but at least I understand the consequences of being an idiot.
And if I honestly ever hear someone that voted for this POS talk about “law and order” 🤬
It’s just a sad, sad day and I fear what’s to come for anyone that dares cross this POS the morons of this country elected.

Great article/interview w/ Ukraine’s First Lady, Olena Zelenska. As we celebrate Easter and the belief that all those who believe in “him” will be saved… At the expense of being judged, I just can’t help but disagree. Most of use make terrible mistakes (aka decisions) in our lives, and I do think the vast majority of times those mistakes are forgivable and redeemable. But that does not mean all actions are forgivable, and we must all live with our decisions/mistakes. For instance, I do not believe that those Russians who started and continue to wage this war are forgivable. They should not be “saved”. Maybe you do. Maybe that makes you a better person than me. But I’ll just leave you with a few passages from the article:
until the last minute it was impossible to believe that this would happen…in the twenty-first century? In the modern world?
Russia does not have mercy for peaceful lives.
How to explain to a child why she is not sleeping in her bed? This is a test you would not wish on anyone.
The line you are talking about was crossed on the first day—the first!
People killed on the street. Not military—civilians! Graves near playgrounds. I can’t even describe it. It makes me speechless. But it is necessary to look at it.
I hope we are not the only ones who see the message Russia is sending. This message is not only addressed to us. This is their message to the world!
Russia knows that the West will not cover the sky, and this fact encourages it to commit atrocities.
The main thing is not to get used to the war—not to turn it into statistics. Continue going to protests, continue to demand that your governments take action.

Hats off to President Elect Biden. As I’ve said before, I’m not really even that big a fan of the Democratic Party, but the actions of the crybaby in chief, his minions, 17 state AGs, and hundreds of Congressmen have guaranteed I will NEVER vote for someone in the Republican Party. I can only hope a majority of Americans feel the same.
Until then, the restraint, kindness, and generosity shown by the President Elect is admirable. Too bad his predecessor and minions are all pathetic weasels.
