Using 2022 IRS data (the latest), a 100% tax on everyone making over 1,000,000 per year will balance the budget. Im sure that will last for only one year. People won't work for free.

You are going to raise taxes on the rich by 2.2 trillion dollars?

If the dems take the House and Senate in November, will they: A) Fight tooth and nail to cut spending and work towards a balanced budget. B) Increase base line spending,

This is also occurring in the USA with H-1B visas in the tech sector. In early July 2025, Microsoft announced it would lay off about 9,000 employees, marking its largest round of job cuts since 2023. This move is part of a wider trend in 2025, as Microsoft has already let go of more than 15,000 workers this year alone, with earlier layoffs in May and June accounting for over 6,000 job losses. The decision has sparked strong reactions across the tech industry, especially as it comes at a time when Microsoft is also submitting thousands of H-1B visa applications for foreign workers. https://www.visaverge.com/h1b/microsoft-lays-off-9000-amid-h-1b-visa-controversy-and-claims/

I figured the left-leaning people about this war.

Not really.. White House officials stated that if Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey agree to measures like honoring ICE detainers, turning over criminal immigrants from local jails, and repealing sanctuary policies, federal border agents would no longer be needed to assist ICE operations on the ground in the state.

I'm paid $100,000 per post.

Don't forget about all the supplies the USA sent to the USSR to keep them in the game.

You are lying.

It’s not accurate to say that more British and other Allied forces were killed by U.S. soldiers in “blue-on-blue” friendly fire during World War II than by any other country. Here’s what the historical evidence actually shows: 🪖 Friendly fire in World War II Friendly-fire deaths were a recognized issue in WWII for all major militaries, including the U.S., Britain, Germany, and the Soviet Union, but there are no reliable statistics showing that U.S. forces killed more Allied troops than enemy forces did. The total number of such incidents and casualties is not comprehensively documented, and scholars caution that estimates vary widely. There is no authoritative figure showing that the U.S. was responsible for the majority of Allied friendly-fire deaths in WWII. A U.S. Army study from 1982 found that friendly fire accounted for a small percentage of U.S. casualties in WWII — less than about 2%, with most of those occurring on the ground. That doesn’t directly translate into deaths of foreign Allied troops, but it does indicate that friendly fire was a small slice of total combat losses for U.S. forces overall. WWII friendly fire incidents included tragic events like bombers accidentally hitting Allied ground troops or aircraft, but these were isolated incidents rather than a systematic pattern. Notable single incidents (e.g., the Niš incident, where American aircraft mistakenly fired on Soviet troops and killed 30+ Soviet soldiers) did occur, but they were exceptional and not part of a large, systematic pattern of cross-Allied fratricide. 🧠 Why the myth doesn’t hold up Comprehensive data don’t exist: WWII was chaotic, and both battlefield confusion and poor record-keeping make it impossible to produce accurate totals for friendly fire deaths by nationality. All sides experienced friendly fire: Axis powers — especially Germany and Japan — also had significant internal friendly-fire losses; even Allied forces suffered considerable fratricide among their own units. Friendly fire was small compared to enemy casualties: Total Allied and Axis military deaths numbered in the tens of millions, and friendly fire made up a relatively small proportion of combat fatalities. 📌 Summary Friendly-fire (“blue-on-blue”) deaths did occur on all sides in WWII, and there were tragic cases where U.S. forces accidentally killed soldiers from other Allied countries. There is no credible historical evidence showing that U.S. forces killed more Allied soldiers in friendly-fire incidents in WWII than other Axis forces did as a result of enemy action. Friendly fire fatalities represented a small fraction of total battlefield deaths, and reliable overall numbers for such incidents in WWII simply don’t exist.

The US could have done this in seven days.

Enough to get it done with no losses.

Really? How does one know what they are getting?

I'll wager this never happens.

OMG...whatever dude.

The "Resistance" LOL.

Like this?

I created a calendar invite to revisit this thread on Nov 3, 2026, so I can mock all of you.

You can't afford it.

Where are they going? No one wants them.

Beef is also linked to heart disease. Choose your poison.

I support the plans.

What exactly does this have to do with fraud in CA, MN, or any other state? The fact is, fraud across the country is occurring through these federally funded programs administered by the state. The Dems are doing their best to hide the fraud. Look at this proposed bill in Virginia. Virginia State Delegate Jessica Anderson, a Democrat, proposed House Bill 1369, which would prevent the state from verifying nonprofit eligibility for federal benefits . Here is the text of the bill https://lis.blob.core.windows.net/files/1092398.PDF

Yea, no fraud in CA The thefts still amounted to more than $4 million a month last fall in both the CalFresh food assistance and CalWorks cash welfare benefits programs, according to a press release from Newsom’s office. That’s down from two years ago, when public benefits recipients were reporting $20 million a month stolen from their accounts. The state uses taxpayer money to reimburse victims when they report theft. https://calmatters.org/politics/2026/01/california-welfare-fraud-improvement/
