But lawyers familiar with Trump's rhetoric said they expect the former president to wade into commentary, and personal attacks, on people involved in bringing him to justice across four separate criminal indictments in four different jurisdictions.
Uhhh ... he already has - Jack Smith, Tanya Chutkan, Fani Willis - you don't have to "expect" it.
MA (and much of the US) has a multi-level tax system where they all stack up.
Let’s tax someone in Boston, MA making $1.5m/yr
Local = 0% State = 9% (previously 5%) Federal = 37%
So on their final dollar of income they’ll be paying 46% income tax now. Note of course because of graduated income tax schemes, that 46% is not applied to the entire $1.5m but instead only to the amount that fits into the highest bracket.
So overall income tax in Boston, MA for the highest bracket is 46%. That’s comparable to many european countries. Although brackets are probably very different.
Misleading title - they’re not doing this by applying 4% tax to the income of mere millionaires, they’re doing it by applying 4% to the incomes of those with annual incomes one million and over.
That’s a much, much wealthier cohort than the title implies.
Remember that this is a marginal income tax rate, i.e. it does not apply to the first $1 million of taxable annual income, only to the amount in excess of that threshold.
He’s not “testing tolerance”. He is violating the terms of his release. Flagrantly and repeatedly. If the justice system wants to continue to command respect, they need a show-cause hearing followed by remanding him to custody until he stands trial. Just as would happen to literally anyone else intimidating witnesses or threatening the judiciary. It would be controversial only with people with no respect for the law already. It needs to be done.
does it matter where the immigrants come from? What makes them illegal immigrants? They are immigrants fleeing for their lives a lot of times. If they want to come over here and start the process of becoming legal that's great. If they want to work illegally no skin off of my back. There are no social services for illegal immigrants it doesn't cost you anything and don't pretend they are taking your jobs because we both know you aren't going to do the jobs they do anyhow. Idk why I'm even commenting.
naw man. jesus has always been about believe in me and alls good but fuck those poor, they be that way from sinnin and grab anything you can while you can because its all about properity.
Moore believes part of the problem is that "almost every part of American life is tribalized and factionalized," and that has extended to the church.
Does this "top official in the Southern Baptist Convention," current editor-in-chief of Christianity Today magazine, and author of a book on "finding a path forward for the religion he loves" know a single fucking thing about the history of religion in general or Christianity in particular? Because religion/Christianity has been "tribalized and factionalized" literally forever, long before America even existed.
Fuck this guy pretending to be some kind of expert or authority on the subject.
