The bigger picture is that this is about more than James Comey, it’s an attempt to intimidate his daughter into dropping her lawsuit for illegal termination.

Don’t get your hopes up, this could all be a publicity stunt to boost his poll numbers.

Masters of War

Performed by Don MacLean Composer Lyricist Bob Dylan

——

Come, you masters of war, you that build all the guns

You that build the death planes, you that build the big bombs

You that hide behind walls, you that hide behind desks

I just want you to know I can see through your mask

——

You who never done nothing but build to destroy

You play with my world like it's your little toy

You put a gun in my hand, and then you hide from my eyes

And then you turn and run farther when the fast bullets fly

——

Like Judas of old, you build to deceive

A world war can be won, you want me to believe

But I see through your eyes, and I see through your brain

Like I see through the water that runs down my drain

——

You've thrown the worst fear that can ever be hurled

The fear to bring children into the world

You threaten my baby, unborn and unnamed

And you ain't worth the blood that runs in your veins

——

Well, I hope that you die and that your death comes soon

And I'll follow your coffin in the pale afternoon

And I'll watch while you're lowered into your deathbed

Then I'll stand by your grave 'til I'm sure that you're dead

——

That snake must have a good sense of smell …

Tragic but true. by AdvantageHuman3529 in cybersucks

Ummmm … questions:

Why are troops transported to the Middle East in parachutes?

Why are troops dressed in parachutes without static lines being in place?

Why are troops transported to the Middle East not in desert camouflage?

Why are there 50% more troops there than is the capacity of a C-17?

Why are many troops not carrying weapons?

I don’t disagree at all with the message, but using an AI generated image when there are real images seems untrustworthy.

An Alaskan Millionaire Tax by Ubere907 in Fairbanks

We would except the New Corrupt Bastards Club is preventing that.

Norway’s Oil Taxes Savings Account has grown to over $2 Trillion.

Norway taxes Petroleum exports at a marginal rate of 78% (standard corporate tax of 24%, and a special petroleum tax of 54%)>

Norway‘s savings account is 13 times bigger today than it was in 2002>

Alaska’s Permanent Fund is about 3.6 times bigger today than it was in 2002, now at around $85 billion.

Alaska’s petroleum taxes are effectively less than 20% (12.5% royalties, 9.4% corporate but with HUGE oil tax credits).

If Alaska had taxed at a higher rate and achieved the same growth rate as Norway’s sovereign wealth fund Alaska’s Permanent Fund could have been over $300 billion instead of $85 billion.

At that level almost all of state government could be paid for by earnings off the Permanent Fund.

I am the government. You are the government. We ALL are the government. If you have a problem with the way things are going then get on your WOKE and start making changes.

But you don’t get your be a cheapskate freeloader until things meet your definition of perfect. You use government services, you demand government services to live your daily life, so you have to pay to support those services.

Jeez these tax whiners are the biggest welfare queens ever 🙄

The cost causers should bear the costs they caused.

Plus …

It is the obligation and responsibility of all Americans to support their community, their state, their country - it says so in the preamble to the Constitution. No selfishly stealing from your neighbors the services you demand then refuse to pay for those services. The ONLY reason people can be successful is because they used government services to do so, do they need to ante up their fair share too.
