Imagine the number of homeless people who could be housed with the King’s latest fancy…
If there was a way to withhold my tax dollars to the federal government and only pay state taxes without getting trouble with the IRS, I would do it in a heartbeat. I’m already fucking disgusted that my tax dollars likely helped fund worse things like “Alligator Alcatraz.”
There is a way: emigrate and give up your citizenship. That’s what I did when Dubya started the fascist shitshow after 9/11. I didn’t want any of my hard-earned funneled into torturing innocent people in Gitmo or funding the DHS Gestapo. So I left. I’m glad I did.
FYI. Harder to do that now than ever. Good job getting out when you did. But it’s not like Americans have good options. Most don’t have enough to pay rent let alone emigrate.
Yeah it’s not for everybody: you have to have the means, have the guts to make the jump and not hold any hope for America. Most people lack at least one of those necessary criteria. But if you can do it, it’s a good option: life is much better outside the USA. Trust me on that one.
Oh I agree. I’m a citizen. But traveled a lot for work between 2005 - 2015. The second you experience what Healthcare is like outside the US it radicalizes you. And that’s if the thousands of other tiny and much better experiences don’t enlighten you to how backwards the US is. Tipping alone is so unnecessary.
Also, those 3 criteria are solid. Certainly my experience as well. The only difference being my personal optics. (In that I’m waiting to see what gets built on the ashes of Trump before leaving) So I guess I have molecules of hope? Eitherway, you have solid advice!
I think I would have a harder time because they want people still pay taxes when they live overseas, and would reject me just because I don’t want my taxes to go to bad things.
they want people still pay taxes when they live overseas
That’s why you have to give up your citizenship. The US is one of few countries in the world that run this scam of demanding taxes be paid by people who live abroad.
You can adjust your W4 and hope the IRS is so underfunded they can’t go after you.
That it’s a distraction from the Epstein list and that the sitting president rapes women and children alike?
Also, he’s spending at least 1 billion of our tax dollars on his bribe plane.
That they are “donating to his presidential library” afterwards… Because… reasons…
Man, I sure hope his library is large enough to land a Boeing in it. Maybe he should get an airport for it for free as well.
Don’t worry, I am sure Ted Cruz and John Cornyn thought through the logistics just like they did when saying they were going to steal the space shuttle from the Smithsonian.
And the stolen election: https://thiswillhold.substack.com/p/ex-cia-whistleblower-the-nsa-audited
+1…Does not surprise me and thanks for the link.
Unfortunately, Fascism won because it’s controlling our country. Pointing to fascist and calling them out for cheating will not make fascist stop being fascist.
I’ll be honest, I haven’t looked into the election stuff much because I see it as an effort that goes nowhere. Even if I think it very likely.
Like, we’re black bagging people and shipping them to foreign countrys prisons. Like, if we can’t rally people around resistance to that then how are we going to make people care about election results in a system most people feel like has never worked in the first place?
Fascism is here BECAUSE this “democracys” structures are meant to serve the wealthy and ruling class. That’s how they were written since this nations foundation. This time it was just in your face so plainly because they realized they dont need to pretend anymore.
The people of this country don’t need election investigations to understand that the system is not democratic. They’ve felt that their entire lives in some way or another.
Trump made the ruling class of America realize they didn’t have to keep pretending the systems were democratic. Literally spitting on the ballots is not what brought us here. Its just the point we finally reached.
Consider for a moment Trump dies or is removed over Epstein. JD Vance can’t keep the show going.
More important than that consider the international implications. The illegitimacy has cost.
There’s an NSA report to be subpoenaed. There may still be physical ballots to count.
Cool. It’s not going to amount to anything. You can quote me on it.
Being stuck with a bunch of defeatists is a handicap but it’s fine, you don’t have a use here.
I’m genuinely curious what you think the end result of or even goal of this would be? Like in your mind what is the scenario that plays out to you?
Subpoena of NSA report followed by recounts. Making more of an international pariah of the USA in the short term and providing a legitimate route for removing the current regime.
That’s the super short version for someone fundamentally disinterested in objective truth like yourself. Lemmy.ml …
Im so fucking sick of this. Why are you so easily distracted. Grow the fuck up and learn to pay attention to more than one thing at a time.
Fuck off pedo
The Jeffery Epstein Memorial Ballroom.
I’m utterly embarrassed to be a US citizen. What a shitty fucking country we live in.
I am embarrassed FOR you! Yeesh. I hope the revolution happens eventually and that it is swift… It will do the whole world good.
Until then I’ll remain high so I don’t have to be sober (and in a lot of pain) in this shit hole
Hit the streets this summer and protest this shit… aaaaand its over.
is expected to be completed “long before the end of President Trump’s term,” the White House said Thursday.
Because he will never leave willingly.
The grim reaper will get him eventually, Like Chaplin said, as long as men die, liberty will never perish.
Don’t care. Release the Epstein files.
Will the ballroom be full of underaged girls?
He’s gonna pardon Diddy and make him the official “Minister of Baby-Oil” and put him in charge of running the “ballroom”
The dude who is covering the whitehouse in gold is the same dude bitching about the price of the fed building.
I’m willing to bet he’s just gonna give 200 million to an associated construction company, take back like half for himself and we’ll never hear about it again.
Hope everyone remembers this and his “free” billion dollar sky palace when they are struggling to pay for groceries and get healthcare because of all his cuts.
… he wants a palace …
And who has palaces? Only two kinds of people have them these days…
Well well, look who’s making himself a kings court. Wonder if Count Epstein will be attending
