The average American works 106 days to cover their tax burden.
3.5 months or 29% of the year.
Meanwhile:
Congress is in session less than half the year, with the House of Representatives averaging approximately 147 legislative days annually and the Senate averaging about 165 days annually since 2001.
🌭 Happy 250th America! 🇺🇸
Who’s the baddest bitch in crypto you ask?
Why @MoparGirls of course!
DISCLAIMER: Also the baddest bitch in too many categories to mention.
Facts matter.
Author Heather Mac Donald says “systemic racism” is not the reason Black Americans are underrepresented in colleges and professions, she says the real reason is a "skills gap”
“This is something that's very difficult to talk about, and I need to give a trigger warning. But the average skill level of black students is very, very low”
“According to the most widely used, objective, respected measures of student competence, The NAEP, the National Assessment of Educational Progress, which is given to hundreds of thousands of high school students and elementary school students every couple of years, 66% of Black 12th graders do not possess even the most basic 12th grade math skills”
She says it is not racism to notice and talk about these things. She says this is why DEI is so destructive
“That skills gap means that you can have meritocracy in an institution, or you can have diversity. You cannot have both. Am I a racist for bringing this up? I am not.
The facts are the facts. I don't care. The facts need to be looked at. They have been completely kept out of the public eye in order to keep this systemic lie of racism going on”
Let me just say that if the cause of black people not being proficient in certain things really was “systemic racism,” and it really was the White person holding them down, then that would be felt by all races
But it’s not, if you look at the test scores in universities, Asians are beating whites in every category
It has nothing to do with systematic racism
STOP Noticing!!
🚨🇺🇸🇮🇱 Nine Americans have been killed in the West Bank since 2022, and the Senate just voted against even asking why...
A 14-year-old from New Jersey was shot 11 times and a Seattle woman was shot in the head, and Chris Van Hollen argued Washington should at least ask why:
"In just over four years, nine American citizens have been killed on the West Bank by violent Israeli settlers or members of the Israeli security forces and there has been zero accountability."
The resolution only asked the State Department for a report, and it still failed 47 to 51, with Rand Paul the lone Republican yes and Fetterman the lone Democratic no.
Refusing to even document how Americans died tells their families Washington would rather not know.
If November flips Congress, this comes straight back, and it should.

By the time one becomes a Supreme Court justice they’ve been living on the dole for decades.
It is a conflict of interests for federally employed individuals to determine the constitutionality of taxes.
Social Security was sold as a program offering retirement annuities that American workers would buy for themselves.
FDR called the 1935 Act “compulsory contributory annuities.”
The Senate Finance Committee chairman said the worker would know “he himself is providing for his old age.”
The government’s own poster promised “a monthly check to you for the rest of your life.”
The sales pitch was successful, culminating in Congress passing the law that created the Social Security system.
Then when the government’s lawyers went to court to defend the program’s constitutionality, they told a very different story.
In Helvering v. Davis (1937), the Supreme Court—essentially adopting the government’s reasoning—upheld the program as a tax and a spending scheme.
Writing for the Court, Justice Cardozo explained that the payroll taxes go into the Treasury “like internal-revenue taxes generally, and are not earmarked in any way.”
The 1935 law left Congress at liberty to “alter, amend, or repeal” any part of it.
In 1960, the Court closed the loop in Flemming v. Nestor.
Benefits are not property and not a contract.
Paying the tax does not give you an account the government cannot touch.
Congress, in other words, can change the deal at any time.
That’s quite the bait-and-switch maneuver.
Social Security was sold as an annuity.
Then it was defended and upheld by the Supreme Court as a tax and a benefit—one that the government can dilute or modify at will.
Hey @grok is this photo authentic?
If so, how closely do the facial features and symmetry of the person on the left match with @MichelleObama ?
What are the odds that this person transitioned from a man to Michelle?
1833 loan to pay slave owners in Parliament for their slaves, finally paid off by the British taxpayers in 2015!!
Siddharth Kara just said it on Rogan: Britain paid the slave owners a fortune. Taxpayers finished the Bill in 2015.
£20 million.
Forty percent of the entire national budget.
Then they borrowed the money.
British taxpayers were still paying that loan in 2015.
Not 1850.
2015.
People who never owned a slave, never saw a plantation, were still on the hook for compensating men who treated human beings as property.
The Gladstones cashed one of the biggest checks.
Tens of millions in today’s money.
On top of the fortune they already extracted.
The enslaved got five more years of unpaid “apprenticeship.”
Then Britain just replaced them with Indian indentured labor and kept the machine running.
That’s the part that doesn’t make the museum plaque.
How I became rich in 2026:
I always carry lots of pennies. When the bill ends in $0.03 / $0.04, I pay exact change. When it ends in $0.01 / $0.02 I say: "Sorry, I don't have any pennies."
"Watch the pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves" - Benjamin Franklin
Inflation = Taxation = Theft
in 1971, the federal minimum wage was $1.60 an hour.
40 hours of work = $64
at the official $35/oz gold price, that was about 1.83 ounces of gold.
today, 1.83 ounces of gold is worth roughly $7,900.
to earn $7,900 in a single 40-hour workweek today, you’d need to make about $198/hour.
$1.60/hour then.
~$198/hour today.
measured in gold.
let that sink in.
But @ColdFormCrypto told me Trump daddy can't use his executive powers to arrest because militias of judges with BIG BEAUTIFUL guns are blocking the police he is in charge of!!
