If it weren’t for insider trading, she’d be living in a trailer.

I don’t get what the point of saying stupid shit like this is. She had been speaker of the house for years, and in Congress for decades. Making 170-190k/year. That’s not trailer money. Her husband also was wealthy prior to this.

Did they abuse her position for personal gain? Yes.

Would they be poor without it? Fuck no

Is she the worst offender? Also no, but Republicans refuse to admit their own politicians do the same shit, more blatantly and more often. Do she gets criticism from all angles while Republican politicians get it only from the opposition. Being the most prominent member of the house also gave her advise more visibility.

If you are a w2 worker, your shit is basically automated. They’ll process your w2 file and then automatically send you the bill.

If you’re owed a refund, it’ll be your problem as they fired most of their state and it’ll take 3 months to process

OVER HALF the States have the software already installed to be able to provide FREE state filing DIRECTLY on their websites…but can’t because they’re trapped in a contract with Intuit/The “Free-File” Alliance

But China IS a space-tier power…

Why are you pretending that guy didn’t just steal his ideas from the Sumerians?

She did overcount the initial report by 3x

The correction from 200k to 73k is a massive reduction.

You think most salary jobs aren’t giving you specific working hours these days, which generally span 9 hours a day but pay you based on 40 hours a week?

Yeah it used to be like that here, too. But billionaires have been attacking union power for decades to the point they were able to pull this bullshit

The recent budget bill massively increased the deficit.

Weekend at Donny’s

They didn’t leave already when they gave millions to bag of human shit Joe Rogan?

It’s dumb. These aren’t mobile devices.

She’s commenting in support of a Republican’s bill. This is Hawley. It’s performative. They all know it won’t pass.

There are professionals that make millions a year trying to figure this stuff out while managing their funds. Just to eek out an extra percent or two over A&P. Do you really think they never thought to look at the text of potential bills before?

But congressmembers routinely vote those returns out of the water. And that’s just something they do on the side, from their full time job as a politician…

You actually believe that?

It wouldn’t have changed her retirement plans when she blocked the last attempt several years ago

You can get those numbers reading options. If you know a company is about to get a $100 million government contract, which might bump up the stock like 10-20%, you can buy options that multiply those returns because you know how quickly it will jump

She’s barely in the top 10.

They’ve clearly not been enforcing that very well. Sure, they now submit their trades a month afterwards. Nothing happens unless they’re very obviously telling other people to also trade on that info

She blocked it when it had a chance of passing. Of course she supports it now that she knows it won’t
