    Mr Trump, we know you&amp;#39;re a convicted sexual assaulter and pathological liar, and generally just an asshole. But you&amp;#39;re doing badly on this Iran business and inflation, which affects gas prices. Now we&amp;#39;re pissed.

    I wonder how long it&#39;s going to take to convince enough MAGA folks that the story they&#39;ve been fed that &quot;there are massive numbers of hardened criminals here illegally in the USA from other countries&quot; is bullshit. At least enough of them to make change in gov&#39;t possible. What I&#39;ve seen as far more likely? Women and children and grandparent-aged folks forcibly taken into custody and shipped to a prison far removed with their homes. Most worked normal jobs and simply min...

    Welp, here in the USA, we&#39;re easing into the early income tax filing period. I&#39;ve read that the Trump White House has killed the service that helped lower income taxpayers file their returns. But I&#39;m still seeing the Free Fillable Forms link on irs.gov.

    @julieofthespirits@kolektiva.social Let&#39;s not forget the propaganda engines that Trump/MAGA have that Hitler and Mussolini (and, incidentally, the USA) didn&#39;t have. Oh, and I would&#39;ve said we don&#39;t want things at the early 1930s level.

    RE: https://mastodon.world/@jeffowski/115974321408376157 I totally agree with your sentiment! This HR Mgr response is a fairy tale, though. They would never divert from the corporate line. They are there to justify management decisions well enough to keep the company from losing a lawsuit.
