Marjorie Taylor Greene - terrorist cunt!

[Pertinacious Tom]

You can buy and hold property and even pass it down to your progeny.  It is not because you sit out there all day and night with a damn shotgun.

If the property in question is an (assault weapon, ordinary .22) or an accessory for such a tool, no, you can't pass it down to your progeny in some states. They're trying to make that the law and/or put it in the FL constitution, but hasn't happened as yet. In CT, for example, billy backstay is the last legal owner of his scary magazine. Other states have similar delayed confiscation programs.

A physical asset is just a different form of Cash.

The biggest delayed confiscation program is the Estate Tax.

Do you have a problem with that as well? (Note, that's a question, not an assumption) 

I do have a problem with it. I think it should be MORE confiscatory.

Would 200% work for you?

US Experience, first $12mill is passed on untaxed.

Rest, at some low rate. 

Creates trust fund babies who fund insurrections. (and whine about the loss of white privilege)

Just wondered if you had a percentage in mind is all. Or were doing an Olsonist whining about how things are sooo unfair but when asked what would be fair, run a mile and never answer.

I likely agree on taxing intergenerational wealth transfers with caveats. Just thought I'd toss a number out there, see what the counter-number was.

So far there isn't one which makes for a boring discussion. Shrug. I'm trying to avoid doing any actual work.

It's actually slightly under $12mil, and the rest is at 40%.

And that's just the feds. Your state may have its own taxes as well. (Washington starts at just over $2mil.)

Is Mitch growing a spine, at least when it comes to keeping Team GOP a viable brand?

He was referring to all Team GOP who are crazy, and doesn't want to single out Green.

From the news story:   "McConnell didn't mention Greene by name in his three-sentence statement"

“GOP Sen. Tommy Tuberville says he doesn't know anything about Marjorie Taylor Greene because bad weather has prevented him from reading the news”

https://www.yahoo.com/news/gop-sen-tommy-tuberville-says-201400141.html

There are no words. Is this the dumbest Senator ever?

 

[Fakenews]

Checked in on her Twitter.  She’s fundraising like crazy off the threat of being booted from the education committee.

Allegedly got a $100k today.

Dart board, 30% and ramp up to 70% at say $100million

So.... It's been bad weather here, so I couldn't read the news.... Did McCarthy ream out MTG,..... Or.... Er...... I mean talk to her?

 

[AJ Oliver]

While y'all are nibbling away at the edges of the irrelevant , the barbarians are storming the gates . . 

Some of us (well, me at least), have been calling this fascism for a good while. 

Mike Gerson finally gets it. 

Welcome to the party . . (no pay wall on this article)

". . some have adopted a very different political philosophy than the Founders held. This approach to government promises the recovery of a mythical past. It feeds a sense of White victimhood. It emphasizes emotion over reason. It denigrates experts and expertise. It slanders outsiders and blames them for social and economic ills. It warns of global plots by Jews and shadowy elites. It accepts the lies of a leader as a deeper form of political truth. It revels in anger and dehumanization. It praises law and order while reserving the right to disobey the law and overturn the political order through violence." 

 

[Olsonist]

Careful about making sense. We’re talking about really nutty people. The GA state GOP may want her to run against Warnock, knowing she’d likely lose. That would get her off the stage and out of the House. The other choice is to push her into a tougher seat via redistricting. But she's in rural GA, in GA-14, NW corner of GA. I don't think they can redraw her out. FWIW, GA will probably gain a seat.

There is no question in my mind that MTG is trying to absorb as many of Trumps MAGA to her cause in support of a presidential bid in 2024.

Sounds like there's going to be a crowded field. I count about 3400 declared candidates right now.

You need to seek help.

Seriously.

Well that should be weird.

I sincerely hope she runs as a Republican and wins their nomination.

I think she has dynamited the bridge with the R's at this point, unless she can have MM whacked.  She'll run for the new Patriot Party.

Supposedly McCarthy is going to remove her from the education committee.  I doubt it because he has even less of a spine than Miss Lindsey.
