#10679my God how triggered you radical Lefties get at anything Trump says while pretending everything was fine when Biden could barely finish a sentence which you couldn't even understand what he was talking about and needed help walking off the stage.
Watch the actual quote. He said much more than that but of course you rabid fools won't care because that's not what they are telling you to believe. The dumb people I am referring to.
“I watched Sheldon sitting so proud in the White House when we gave Miriam the Presidential Medal of Freedom," Trump said at his New Jersey resort.
"That’s the highest award you can get as a civilian. It’s the equivalent of the Congressional Medal of Honor," Trump continued, referring to the highest military honor bestowed for valor in combat. The Medal of Honor is often mistakenly called the Congressional Medal of Honor. "But civilian version, it’s actually much better because everyone [who] gets the Congressional Medal of Honor, they're soldiers. They’re either in very bad shape because they’ve been hit so many times by bullets or they’re dead," Trump concluded. “She gets it, and she’s a healthy, beautiful woman, and they’re rated equal, but she got the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and she got it for — and that’s through committees and everything else.”
Did you read above? Her award is better because, the other medal is only for soldiers, who were wounded or died. Do you need an interpreter??
AND Why did he give her the award?? Because her deceased husband, Sheldon Adelson donated record amounts of money to his campaign.Comment -

CLAIM: President Biden and his fellow Democrats claim crime is down based on an FBI report.
VERDICT: False. Biden and his fellow Democrats do not mention that thousands of police precincts are not reporting crime data to the FBI.
On June 11, 2024, Biden told an Everytown for Gun Safety gun control gathering:You know, the year before I came to the presidency, the murder rate was the highest increase on record. Last year, we saw the largest decrease of murder in the history of (inaudible). (Applause.) And those rates are continuing to fall faster than ever. Last year, we also saw one of the lowest rates of all violent crime in nearly 50 years. Murder, rape, aggravated assault, robbery all dropped sharply, along with burglary and property crime.He did not mention that 2021 and 2022 witnessed a decline in crime reports from police precincts around the country.The Marshall Project explained that that in 2020, “almost every law enforcement agency was included in the FBI’s database.” However, in 2021, the FBI went to a new system for compiling data and would only accept police precinct reports through the new system.
The result? “Thousands of police agencies fell through the cracks because they didn’t catch up with the changes on time.” Thus, in 2022 there were far fewer police precincts turning in crime data; the Marshall Project reported in 2023 that “more than 6,000 law enforcement agencies were missing from the FBI’s national crime data last year, representing nearly one-third of the nation’s 18,000 police agencies.”

#10685It has recently come to light that TFG accepted $10 million from Egypt shortly after the election in 2016.
As The Washington Post recently reported, “Five days before Donald Trump became president in January 2017, a manager at a bank branch in Cairo received an unusual letter from an organization linked to the Egyptian intelligence service. It asked the bank to ‘kindly withdraw’ nearly $10 million from the organization’s account — all in cash.”
That sounds totally legitimate,
The Post further reported that the discovery of the $10 million withdrawal intensified a secret criminal investigation that had begun two years earlier with classified U.S. intelligence indicating that Egyptian President Abdel Fatah El-Sisi sought to give Trump $10 million to boost his 2016 presidential campaign.
The Justice Department had been examining whether money moved from Cairo to Trump potentially violating federal law that bans U.S. candidates from taking foreign funds.
Investigators had also sought to learn if money from Sisi might have factored into Trump’s decision in the final days of his run for the White House to inject his campaign with $10 million of his own money.
And that totally tracks if you believe in coincidences.
Of course, Bill Barr, TFG’s Attorney General, stepped in and blocked prosecutors and FBI agents from obtaining bank records that might serve as corroboration.
So, what did TFG do for Egypt in exchange for $10 million? As the Post reported, while he was in the White House, he “shifted U.S. policy in ways that benefited the Egyptian leader, a man he once called ‘my favourite dictator.’”
In 2018, Trump’s State Department released $195 million in military aid that the United States had been withholding over human rights abuses — a move that had been opposed by his first secretary of state — followed by the release of $1.2 billion more in such assistance.
It looks like Sisi got his money’s worth out of TFG.
Yesterday TFG spoke without taking questions for nearly an hour, and then only answered maybe 5 questions
And not a single one of the selected "reporters" in attendance asked him anything about this story!
Clearly they know if they did they would not receive accreditation for any more of his "press conferences"

Then he said because soldiers were injured or died, which to him means they were failures. How many times do you need to hear him tear down wounded, captured warriors? He then said their supposed to be equal but are they really? WTF? A lady who gave him millions of dollars are equal to soldiers dying for our country? Are you serious? They are no way equal. Did you not hear what he said about John McCain???
Trump obviously has an issue with the military. He may say he respects them but he also said he knew more than Generals. Why would the guy he appointed, corroborated by others make up a story about him calling them suckers and losers?Comment -

#10688Josh - I'm not saying they didn't say this to you. I'm sure they did. And they may not be lying BUT they obviously are confused about their taxes. Once again, I am not a tax expert but taxes are on taxable income. Withholding of taxes is based on what you make and what you claim on your W-4. The IRS does not jack up taxes for some workers. You are not penalized because you work for tips. The negative paychecks take into account the money they made on cash tips. Maybe they're not telling you that?
Yes, food stamps are based on several factors. Low pay is one of them. Some bartenders make very good money working in high end establishments. Some barely eek out a living. Our tax code is clearly stated.
I can't prove millionaires finding ways to convert income into tips because there's no tax break on tips. But, some experts have said that this would create a loophole for the wealthy.
Okay, for those that question Taylor Swift getting tips.... How about a model on Only Fans. Her subscribers pay a monthly subscription but she makes most all her money by people tipping her. So now, you have these girls making hundreds of thousands of dollars get paid tax free? Come on.There's no incentive for a company to gift money to their employees. Sure, it would help the employee but you as a company would not be able to write off the expense. Walmart would not save money by gifting. They would lose $17k per employee. That's money coming out of Walmart's pockets. Think about it. What incentive is there for you to give me $17k? You may like me but you are now out of $17k. Now gifting to your kids or a relative is another story. Also, I think there's a maximum lifetime gift exclusion of like $13 million. Maybe one day I'll get lucky and someone will gift me the max. Haha
Tax lawyers will find ways. They will test the IRS. The IRS then tries to remove the loopholes. I am amazed how these lawyers can restructure businesses, processes, etc., to reduce taxes. They are much smarter than me. Several experts have already come out on this and have said that this no tax on tips would have very little impact on the poor and the wealthy would most likely benefit the most. I'm no expert. I really don't know because I haven't seen the plan, nor would I know what to do.Josh - according to this. https://www.workstream.us/wage-index...minimum%20wage.
The minimum wage in Nevada is $12/hour. Tipped workers are paid $3.35 per hour BUT they must also receive tips that bring their hourly earnings to at least the $12/hour. That's approximately $25k per year which those workers with a family already wouldn't pay any taxes. Any money withheld would be refunded.ONLYFANS
Other celebrities and well-known influencers have earned similarly large amounts at their peak too.
Bella Thorne - $11 million.
Although her monthly subscription is free, through tips and requests, Thorne has been able to generate massive revenue.
Cardi B - $9.43 million
Like Blac Chyna, rapper Cardi B is no longer on OnlyFans but when she was, she managed to bring in over $9 million.
Tyga - $7.69 million
The rapper deleted his OnlyFans account in 2021 but hit his peak at more than $7 million.
Mia Khalifa - $6.42 million
After leaving the adult film industry, Khalifa joined OnlyFans to take back her brand and post the type of content she wanted.
Bhad Bhabie - $5.2 million
The social media star charges subscribers $23.99 per month to see her exclusive content on OnlyFans making her one of the top earners on the platform.
Erica Mena- $4.49 million
The TV star allegedly made over $4 million per year through tips and exclusive content.
Gemma McCourt- $2.9 million
Known as Gem101 on OnlyFans, the social media influencer has become wildly popular on OnlyFans. She charges fans $30 per month for a basic subscription, earning her a spot on the list.
Walmart would save money by not paying payroll taxes. So why doesn’t Walmart make a 501c3, donate the salaries of its employees, get the write-off, and gift the money to the employees? Now Walmart can write that off, and pay no payroll taxes, I’m assuming the employees get all the money from the 501c3. The IRS won’t allow it! If you think this can happen, I advise you to open your own CPA or tax law firm.
Cocktail servers and bartenders tend to make than minimum wage more per hour. The people I’ve talked to are usually making anywhere from 6$-$12 per hour + tips, although they typically have to share 20% with a bartender.
Regarding onlyfans, as both of us posted, the person giving the tip decides to tip. I’m not sure how only fans works, but if there is a minimum tip required, then it’s not a tip by IRS standards. The other thing is that it’s easily traceable since it’s electronic.Comment -

#10689When tips are the primary or very large source of income, it should be taxed. Why should someone who makes 20k wages and 40k tips per year pay less than someone who makes 50k wages and no tips? Is there a rationale?

President Biden and Kamala Harris plan to celebrate the Inflation Reduction Act’s two-year anniversary this week. What they won’t mention in their exultation is the damage the law is doing to the development of new medicines.
A portent came last week from Charles River Laboratories, a top research contractor that helps drug makers with clinical trials. The company warned in its quarterly earnings report that pharmaceutical companies are slashing research and development owing to the IRA’s drug price controls.Comment -

Both parties do the same shit in an election year. If there’s a republican president, the Dems will say the sky is falling and vice versa. Everything Trump said about the Biden administration was untrue. The country is not exploding.Comment -

#10702Now, d2bets makes a fair point, but the opposite is also true, and is my main concern with this. Why should someone who makes $30,000 a year pay more than someone who makes $45,000 because the IRS assumes they’ll make $60,000? I think there’s a very good chance we’re in the early stages of a recession. If I’m right, what happens to people who have to choose between going to work and losing money every hour or having their hours cut back so much that they lose their benefits? Ultimately I’d rather have an elimination of all income & payroll taxes under $500,000 and a national sales tax and this whole argument is moot.
Most people would rather taxes be eliminated but if you only had sales tax, it would disproportionately hurt lower income people.Comment -

#10704This is what gets me. Republicans keep blaming Biden for the border but rejected the biggest border protection in our countries history. The program was so restrictive, even some Republicans said it went too far. All said it was tougher than when Trump was in office. They all agreed it was a great bill but Trump said no because he didn’t want Biden to take a victory lap. So now they’re blaming Harris. Wow, you can’t make this shit up.Comment -

#10705Dwight, none of what you posted means much. Why not talk to law enforcement. They will tell you that crime has gone down. Oh, I forgot, you live on an island.

Mac, I am a liberal at heart. There is no such thing anymore as a fiscal conservative which I considered myself as for quite awhile after the meaning of liberal had lost its way. When Obama won, I hoped he would be hope and change. I was very skeptical because of some of the things he said and the fact that he attended Rev Wright's church listening to that anti-American racist POS speak for decades. He lifted W's ban on stem cell research immediately after taking office which I applauded him for. Then it went kinda downhill from that point on. Forcing people to buy government healthcare was only one of the policies I was against. Like millions of people who either voted for or supported Obama initially, they eventually realized he was just an empty suit. Ya, good looking guy, well spoken, clean (as Biden called him. Imagine if Trump called Obama 'clean' LOL), and funny. I didn't care whether he married a guy or had secret gay sex. To each his own. He sucked as president. He was weak. Bad ideas.
Trump is different. He doesn't fukk around. He doesn't waste time. He gets shit done. He calls out incompetence and morons. Washington hates him for it. Its full or them. The MSM hates him for it for the same reason. I love that about him. So do millions of people from all over the world. America and the world needs someone like him more than ever, except they have that guy now! They will have to steal the election again or assassinate him. He's too much of a threat to the swamp and the deep state.
Trump is an modern day American hero. A fighter. An Asshole. A SOB. Trump 2024! Make America Great Again!

i do not like Trump. You know that. I didn’t like him many years before he got into politics. He is a charlatan, he has an illusion of success but really has failed at almost everything . fukks people over especially small business owners. I dislike guys who are always right, there way or the highway and never apologizes and blame others. I’ve never known anyone that gets into so many personal fights. I want a president who normally keeps his mouth shut.Comment -

#10710I am liberal in many things and conservative in others. I think I’m more normal than both parties. I’ve voted for more Republicans in local elections but more Democratic presidents. I like balance and don’t want either party to have all the power. I really want a third party but that looks like a pipe dream.

I don't want weak leaders. There are too many in the world. Biden, Obama, Justin Trudeau, Macron.
I want strong leaders. Fighters. Ones that put their country above everything else. Firm by fair. Ones that don't use pronouns and ones who can give the definition of what a woman is if asked. I mean seriously!!!
The world is a much better place when America is strong and leads by example. Where a leader calls out losers and grifters in any political party. One that calls out the dishonest media for what they are. Someone not beholden to anyone. A tough SOB. A Reagan type. A Thatcher type. A Trump. MAGA!Comment
