Did you know Social Security (FICA) taxes are only taken out on the first $160,200 a person makes in 2023? This means those making more don’t pay taxes on that income. If the rich paid FICA taxes like the rest of us problems with depleting the Social Security trust fund is solved

#ACAB "Cottes’ family says it took more than 30 minutes to get him help and they want to know why. 'He’s asking for police to help'...they weren’t allowed to visit David in the hospital before he died weeks later, so he took what happened to the grave."

Someone was breaking into David Cottes's condo, he had someone call the police while he got his licensed firearm and went to check things out. Police showed up and promptly shot David, handcuffed him, then dragged his body onto the elevator (video on page) local10.com/news/local/202

Socialism is a scare word they've hurled at every advance the people have made. Socialism is what they called public power, social security, deposit insurance, and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for anything that helps all people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Behold the wonders of capitalism. The benevolent corporation WARNS the hungry not to eat thrown away food. In a socialist country they would just feed them, you know. See how evil socialism is?

I wonder if anyone at the "Wage Against the War Machine" rally is going to have the guts to call out Tulsi for her own hypocrisy? This is why we can't defeat the system. These organizers are all about their own grift. Nothing serious about this at all!

I’m sure our state legislators who take money from United Healthcare are laughing right along with them as they are denying our single payer healthcare bill a hearing
Quote Tweet
ProPublica obtained audio of a UnitedHealth broker laughing about a severely ill patient who was just denied coverage. @UHC had flagged the young patient as a "high dollar account." The broker complains about his mom throwing "tantrums" to get him care.

You should see how much these folks at are being paid to pull African American Studies from the AP curriculum

Quote Tweet
David Coleman, the head of the College Board, said in an interview that the changes were all made for pedagogical reasons, not to bow to political pressure. “At the College Board, we can’t look to statements of political leaders,” he said. The changes, he said, came from “the input of professors” and “longstanding A.P. principles.”
The College Board Strips Down Its A.P. Curriculum for African American Studies
After criticism from Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida, the official course looks different: No more critical race theory, and the study of contemporary topics — like Black Lives Matter — is optional.
It is a disservice to not name this as fascist. The lack of courage by the College Board, its lying to the public about why it capitulated, and the failure of the corporate media to name what is happening is putting us on the very brink.

Today would have been Jaheim McMillan's 16th birthday. He died in October 2022 in Gulfport, MS. The family is still fighting to see the body cam and learn what happened when their son was executed by police in front of a store. fox8live.com/2023/02/01/fam
