They want to abolish the IRS just because some rich people have to pay some taxes. Imagine what they'd do if they had to live in the constant expectation that they may be pulled out of their car and have bear repellant sprayed in their face for no explicable reason.

Others have said this better, but when I see all the “no violence” appeals to protesters, I wonder if they also ask this of police.

RT @kevrector
If protests occur in L.A.:

Journalists are allowed to enter areas where LAPD has declared an unlawful assembly or curfew, and remain there without citation, according to CA law and LAPD policy.

Individual officers routinely ignore these rules. If they do, ask for a supervisor.

SCOOP! Many top donors to George Santos' 2020 campaign, uh, don't seem to exist. My colleague Noah Lanard and I tried to contact these donors and found addresses and names that could not be confirmed. Please read/share/boost.

The Ohio GOP knows that voter fraud in Ohio is extremely rare. It’s rare everywhere.

By the Ohio Secretary of State’s own account, all of 27 cases of voter fraud in the 2020 general election were referred for prosecution. Ohio voters cast a total of nearly 6 million ballots. The fraud rate is all of 0.0005%.

But the GOP will never miss an excuse to disenfranchise voters.

It’s important for Ohio voters to know about these changes and for everyone to follow state election legislation.

It’s also going to be important for anyone who can to help people get voter ID. Here’s a good organization to that end.

Elon directly ordered the takedown of the account of Chad Loder, one of the most prominent and effective antifascist researchers in the US.

(Not mentioned in the article: Elon did so at the request of Andy Ngo, a notorious far right stochastic terrorist.)

Nicholas Winton helped 669 Jewish children escape the Nazis. His efforts went unrecognized for 50 years. Then in 1988, while sitting as a member of a TV audience, he suddenly found himself surrounded by the kids he’d rescued, now adults.

I like to remember this every Jan 27th.

We now actually have confirmation rent isn't being paid at Twitter HQ (previous headlines mistook a different SF office where rent wasn't being paid for HQ). HQ is where Elon himself works.

I cannot for the life of me understand how the landlord is resisting the temptation to physically have Elon Musk, second richest man in the world, thrown out of their building in front of news cameras.

Here’s a picture of completely empty bookshelves in a Florida classroom after DeSantis ordered teachers to remove all books or else face felony charges

Chasing after criminals is part of a cops job. They shouldn’t get away with killing the person who makes them work when they catch up. Would be like teachers getting away with killing students who don’t behave in class or letting doctors kill patients who won’t stop smoking.

"Barr & Durham never disclosed that their inquiry expanded in the fall of '19, based on tip from Italian officials, to include a criminal investigation into suspicious Trump-related financial dealings... how they handled the investigation remains unclear" nytimes.com/2023/01/26/us/poli

Bill Barr pressured John Durham to discredit the investigation into Donald Trump’s ties to Russia.

John Eastman and Rudy Giuliani conspired with Donald Trump to overturn the 2020 election.

So much for "Law & Order" in the Republican Party.

This is more demonstrably false, more empirically discredited, than the very dumbest climate science denial.

The media has largely evolved past the "both sides" thing on climate science. Why not on this? Why do we have to pretend this is a credible approach?

Cut taxes.
Grow revenue.
Get big government out of the way.

That's how we balance the budget.
