Do you notice? The Democrats always want to increase taxes but never stop fraud.

Whether Elon or Larry has a $500B or $1T does not impact my life in the slightest. If they were taking it from me, I'd be outraged, but economics is not a pie, and I'm busy baking my own. Good for them, I guess. At least we know the system works as intended: it's the American Dream we profess to care about, after all.
I'm delighted that Musk is a trillionaire. Anyone else happy for him?

Amazing how fast the climate scam disappeared as soon as these AI data centers started being built.

The only thing that would make me happier than John Cornyn losing his primary is Lindsey Graham losing his too.

The DOJ's deadline to charge Fauci for lying under oath about funding gain-of-function research in Wuhan is in 6 days. We can’t allow the statute of limitations to run out. He MUST be charged! Agree? RT.

They get NGO kickbacks. Immigration is money for campaign contributions.

Answer this simple question- If labor is in short supply why are wages down? Okay followup- If labor is in short supply why do we have 18 million working aged men out of the job market and why aren't college grads being hired?

I can’t believe @krakenfx still hasn’t released 1099-DA forms for their users. It’s almost one month before the tax deadline. Better extend if you’re a Kraken user!

You need to match the 1099-DA on your taxes or expect an IRS notice Just another layer of complexity and oversight

If the GOP, while holding the presidency and both houses of Congress cannot get the Save Act passed, then conservative voters really do have to reckon with the fact that they do not actually have a party that represents them. They just have people who exploit them for money and career advancement.

All answers sought from the silicon God must pass through the approved priesthood first. Very 1517.

Anthropic dropped a blog post claiming AI can finally break the cost barrier to COBOL modernisation. The markets panicked and dumped IBM. I think that's a dumb move. Anthropic claims that understanding legacy code always cost more than rewriting it. Now AI flips that equation. I see two problems with this. First, IBM already has a tool that does this. It's called Watsonx Code Assistant for Z. Purpose-built to modernise mainframe applications faster, with lower risk and lower cost. Second, "No one ever got fired for buying IBM." That old saying explains why banks still run on COBOL. They don't buy the newest and the best. They buy the lowest risk. And the lowest risk is leaving the estimated 800 billion lines of COBOL code in daily production use well alone. Rewrites fail far too often.

Total wealth of US billionaires = $8.1 trillion. If we confiscated all of their wealth, we'd only be able to run the federal government for about 14 months. Perhaps our problem isn’t how much billionaires have but how much politicians spend.

Katie Couric and George Stephanopoulos went to a dinner party with Jeffrey Epstein after his first conviction. Why isn’t that your headline?
At least half a dozen top Trump administration officials appear in the Jeffrey Epstein files. nbcnews.com/politics/justice…
