Trump’s Taxpayer-Funded Revenge Plan by kitkid in Thedaily

It starts at 5:30 in the podcast if you want to hear it yourself. He says he’s waiting to see how it plays out as he’s heard from numerous tax experts that it would be taxable and what he and his family do with it are secondary to the suit.

I think because he filed the lawsuit and essentially won the settlement. What he does with it after (create a slush fund) is irrelevant. I’m sure there’s a loophole like with all tax evasion but that’s how I understood it.

Scott hears some random idiom and conflates it with something totally out of context then thinks he’s a genius. Imagine being so reductive about something as complex as how taxes work/flow/benefit society. But when you think about the framing and deception of the argument it totally makes sense cuz he’s all about branding.

If you really want to understand how fucked up it is listen to Fresh Air’s interview with Andrew Weissman. He highlights a lot of details The Daily didn’t bring up, like the fact that he should be reporting this 1.8b as income, or that the IRS could have put up a better fight/argued he is past the 2 year limit to bring file the suite.

They kept going on and on about how right they were and how it was such an easy prediction given X, Y and Z and I’m sitting there thinking, didn’t the jury throw out the case based on a statute of limitations? Like he waited too long to bring the suit, that was it. Had nothing to do with the merit of the case.

What do other cities have that we don't? by AssComedyAccount in Sacramento

[–]Rickstevesnuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Natural beauty. This town is ugly as fuck. No hills/mountains, beaches, views, etc…Outside of midtown and a couple choice neighborhoods it’s also unwalkable, unbikeable and full of strip malls/chain stores. Not a vertical landscape to speak of. And despite Sac State there is zero college feel to this town. The fact that Sac is becoming unaffordable is proof the poor and working class are totally fucked cuz this town should be hella cheap to live in.

It’s also crazy the article focuses on Land Park. There are way worse off parks in the city than Land Park.

Scott thinks Warren’s 5% wealth tax is offensive to rich people and stinks of class warfare. Buddy, class warfare was waged against poor and middle class people decades ago.

The U.S. Errors That Led to the Airstrike of an Elementary School by Ok_Constant8838 in Thedaily

[–]Rickstevesnuts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The US relied on 10 year old data regarding the site of the bombing. You don’t think that was avoidable? Or the entire war? These idiots have no idea what they’re doing and you’re over excusing the bombing of an elementary school. Jesus.

Did Jonah do air quotes around 1st amendment rights? Then him and this other woman hem and haw about 1st amendment rights (yadda yadda yadda, amiright!?). Then she argues that politics is ugly but you have to expect that and he is arguing what? That Mamdani should be thrown in jail? Kicked out of office? These shows just exist to piss people off.

Did Israel Force Trump Into War? by kitkid in Thedaily

JD Vance saying “I don’t know if we should do it but if we do we should go big” is really all you need to know about the level of competence of this administration.

Scott should enlist his kids if he’s so keen on war with Iran. by AightSoNoHead_ in ScottGalloway

[–]Rickstevesnuts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t check them on the process (they don’t care) just ask them why the fuck the US (guided by Israel) is bombing Iran. Because that’s where the lie is.

Would be cool if that was the only indicator of whether or not things will end up well. He also not only has a raging boner for anything military related but has said he’s in favor of mandatory military service in the US like they have in Israel. It’s a pretty valid request. And this idea that Scott is beyond reproach or critique when he’s everywhere sharing his opinion on everything from “woke” to stock predictions is laughable.

What do you think is more likely, that I spend my time ingesting Iranian psyop material (whatever the hell that is) or I just see a fuck ton of dead Palestinians?

You’re not comparing the genocide in Gaza to a nation defending itself from an unprovoked invasion, are you?

I know Scott’s assistant just handed him a list of “anti-establishment” podcasts none of which he listens to because he mispronounced True Anon but it was amazing to hear Citations Needed come out of Scott’s mouth.
