Funny how the IRS would take forever to get your refund back but the moment you are having to write a large check on top of what you have already paid they cash that check the second you click send.

If MAGA primaried everyone they dislike, they'd be down to like 20-25% of Congress that they do like. Pretty funny. BTW, MAGA was very happy with the way Paul challenged Fauci on the source of covid & vaccines. Paul sure is a POS, now isn't he?
They're going to fafo alright. What they are going to find out is that the US isn't going to throw the full weight of our military behind the effort, if any at all. If Russia takes the gloves off and rolls their asses then so be it.
Lol... ok, really scared of who the dems are going to run against our good nominee. The last three you've put up were McGrath, Booker and Grimes. Get serious.
NFL running backs rank right up there with WRs in the impregnation game. Travis Henry and his 10 baby mamas plus Willis McGahee and his eight baby mamas say hold my beer.
Don't know how you think like you do, but I didn't put up any of those. Haven't voted for a Dim since Ken Lucas for Congress vs. DA Gex Williams. So pound salt.
400M people. More than 110% of our population.
HOWEVER, they need to be careful not to simply TURN OFF all payments for these ss# without looking into each specific reason.
Widows and others who were eligible to receive spousal or parental social security benefits upon the death of the primary wage earner are dependent on this money, and may be included in the "false" death category. A stay at home mom of 5 with a husband who worked to support them would have no ss benefits accumulated under her ss# and so should still be eligible to receive payments from her spouse's contributions.
Filing electronically, I get my Fed Return back in 3-4 weeks. Won't be a concern anyway though since we'll owe way more than we ever have this year.
I’d venture to guess that 2-4% of payments (not totals) are to dead people (not spouses). For how long that goes on who knows. Do they catch it in a year? Do they claw anything back?
They are. Even if they divorced after 15+ years & never remarried, they are eligible too in those circumstances. I pointed this out to neighbor woman whose ex died. She didn't know till then.
Professional athletes as a group all have insane levels of dedication to their craft. They train, eat right, and study film.
Its always crazy to me they often have almost the exact opposite approach to their life off the court/field. I guess they really need all that structure to manage their life.
A guy in the neighborhood was caught continuing to get & cash mother's SS check. He wasn't an illegal, but should be deported for this anyway.
No different than the ER doc who is pulling 16 hr days, the chef at a 5 star restaurant, the mechanic who can work on Audi engine w/ his eyes closed, etc, etc, etc. The difference being pro athletes embrace and adopt the all about me lifestyle (there are exceptions in both categories)
Meh... pro athletes have to be athletic. They don't have to be smart or have impulse control. Take DeShaun Watson and Justin Tucker for example.
This is nonsensical. There was 4 million measles cases in the US in 1963. There was 200k cases in the US in 2022.

My brother went to Yale and had a professor who claimed that the link between HIV and AIDS was correlation not causation. Point is, there are a lot of really dumb "smart" people out there.
Probably been about 15 years ago, but as a "special report" one of the TV stations here in Evansville bird-dogged a panhandler, with the reporter and cameraman following him to his vehicle a couple blocks away after he was done "working" for the day. They asked him some basic questions, like why he was unable to find regular work, how much money he made panhandling, etc. Not surprisingly, he was pretty evasive and didn't like being confronted.
The best course of action is just to ignore them.
Totally is. My point is that this isn't a one off. Look at cases for each of our vaccine diseases. Mumps down, polio down, smallpox eradicated. Don't believe in or think the efficacy of flu or covid vaccine is worth getting? That's fine, but don't take your beliefs in these and extrapolate it to actual lifesaving vaccines.
Correlation. Plain and simple. Unless someone is "anti-science" like yourself. Can you even comprehend the difference between causation and correlation?
Edit-
Double checked your data, because it didnt sound anywhere close to factual, and you're pulling sht out of your ask to support your belief.
"In 2022, more than 9 million measles cases occurred worldwide, and an estimated 136 200 people, mostly children, died from the highly contagious disease, according to a recent report from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO)."
Most of these cases come from regions where there are consistently the same pollutants in the environment due to similar industries and lack of environmental standards. Same goes for "polio" and associated myelitis. You've probably never looked into that, though, because you're anti-science and uninterested in facts. The symptoms of measles are also the same as symptoms of overexposure to certain chemicals and chemical treatment of products.

I don’t believe those accusations for a second. Everyone should be hip to this shit by now.
I watched the SNL special last night, and this scene was a major buzzkill. I've pretty much always knows that Tom Hanks was left-leaning, but this was a big F-you to Trump voters. I've lost a lot of respect for him over this. I'm not hardcore MAGA by any stretch, but this sketch is representative of SNL's disdain for conservatives since at least 2015-16 when Trump came on the scene.
Overall, I'd give the special a C+/B- grade, mostly because it was cool to see of the older sketches and performers that made the show so great when it first started out. That said, i'm certainly not planning to start watching the show again.
The drastic shift downward in cases of ALL of these dis eases occurred BEFORE the jabs were introduced. There's been very little change in their severity and occurrence since the drastic drops BEFOREHAND. It's inconvenient truth rearing its ugly head again.
The drastic drop occurred relative to indoor plumbing and electricity and other favorable health, sanitation, and environmental waste handling improvements to communities.

The Justin Tucker ones coming out the first time he has an off year is pretty odd, I'll give you that.
I didn't understand that skit. Why did Eddie Murphy just leave all of a sudden?
Hanks is so compromised that he'll do anything at this point. He has no choice. There are so many pos actors just like him that hate Americans, but seem to always want to profit from them. Liam Neeson is another, but there are plenty.
They're still milking the older stuff to get people to watch the newer bullsht that sucks. I won't ever watch more than clips of it on unofficial pages or channels, for this reason. I'm not tuning into NPC, CCPBS, CompleteBS, or ApeBC for any reason anymore. No point in subjecting myself or anyone else to the propaganda.

This is the part that should immediately show what this is
- The manager/owner signing a statement saying no such things were ever brought up to her and she has received zero complaints about Tucker. Then the girls saying “We feared for our jobs.” Oh STFU.
The goal is to overwhelm with numbers so you can’t spend all of your time attacking one claim. This way they hope you settle. This has been used as extortion.
If DOGE cannot access it, it is against the American people. Period! Trust NO ONE, block ALL money spent, THEN let in what is legitimate. Kind of like an Ironport server and also likened to network Zero Trust implementation. Do you know how to implement it??? Block it ALL and then allow what is legit!!!
DOGE all the way...
In 2026, my order of preference for McConnell’s replacement will be something along the lines of:
My wife’s dead cat
A democrat possessing anything above a dead animal’s cognitive capacity (a big stretch, I know)
Anyone McConnell supports

The Justin Tucker ones started before this season, IIRC. Just became news during this one.
I don't believe any of it because I haven't seen any evidence and no one filed any charges on anything ever going back to when they claim it first occurred. The closest thing to it is when ONE therapist made a claim to their superior at work in 2015. Nothing other than that in employee records or customer files over the 10 yrs they say it was taking place.
Worse than sketchy, considering the "me too" movement came and went with Deshaun Watson being skewered publicly for years relative to the same thing. You'd think they'd have spoken up then, if there was anything to it.
But, just as I don't believe it did happen, and I'm the exact OPPOSITE of a raven's fan (or even an NFL fan these days), I don't believe it didn't happen. That's what the court system is for. If it comes out in the press without a case in the courts over the past 10 years, it's definitely not inspiring any confidence in its validity.
