Logged out Twitter for the last time today, it definitely feels good. I don’t think I’m really going to use these notes unless there’s a good reason, because the dopamine treadmill is a huge part of why I left. If I’m gonna get likes and restacks at least let me earn it with longform content.
Even if it’s not all the way at the scale of violence, but you notice that he thinks Hitler mustaches are funny. He thinks, you know, that he’s expressing himself. You see him slipping down that rabbit hole. What do you do?racket.news/p/take-the-…? r=5mz1&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false

Low-income Americans ‘are easy marks’ for IRS, ATF, DEA while Biden pardons son for tax fraud, gun and drug crimes. By Dr. Simone Gold (12/05/24)
Dr. Gold describes America’s two-tiered justice system, especially for easy-mark Americans.
Key points:
Despite previous declarations that he would not, Joe Biden pardoned his son Hunter of tax, drug, and firearm violations and any other crimes he may have committed since 2014.
American taxpayers remain targeted by Biden's Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), and Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
Under Biden…
Taxpayers must report transactions of $600 or more on third-party payment platforms to the IRS
IRS has increased audits on low-income families
Inflation Reduction Act provided IRS with $78 billion and 87,000 more employees
Low-income Americans ‘are easy marks’ because IRS “doesn’t have the resources” to help them and they cannot afford to fight IRS claims against them
Tax policies and legislation, contrary to “taxing the rich,” affect middle and lower income Americans disproportionally
Small businesses ‘won’t fight back’ (because they cannot afford to)
