Washington, I know this ballot is confusing as hell. And that is on purpose. Politicians in our state are trying to confuse you becuase they don't believe in democracy. The only reason we get to vote on this is that enough brave people stood up and demanded it. Otherwise, the governor would have signed this into law like the King of England, treating us like serfs with no rights and no power. Well, I won't stand for being tricked, lied to, and treated like a child. Just to be crystal clear, if you vote "Yes," it will repeal the illegal income tax. It will not reduce funding to schools or human services because the tax doesn't go into effect until 2029. So we aren't taking anything away. Starbucks left because of this. Microsoft has threatened to move jobs out of state. Amazon now employs nearly 15,000 fewer people in Seattle than at its peak. Seattle is second to last in the number of VC deals that closed in Q3. Holding a small number of companies and rich people hostage, when they have options, is a foolish strategy that is already backfiring spectacularly. The solution? Reduce taxes on businesses and income. Why even tax people under 25 at all? Give families with children a HUGE tax credit. Make this state an incredible place to do business and have a family. Encourage entrepreneurs to come here. Get startups, agencies, and smart, motivated people to build here. We can increase overall state revenue if more people make stuff, employ people, and create more value for everyone here. Not by chasing them out of the state and creating a hostile environment for business. Remember this: governments and taxes don't make jobs. Entrepreneurs do.

BREAKING: Meta, Amazon, Microsoft and Google are expected to pour $750 billion into capital spending this year, mostly on AI data centers, per Bloomberg. That’s enough to write a $5,500 check to every household in America. It’s up more than 80% from last year’s $410 billion.

This is basically a threat. "Leave us alone or the economy will be destroyed," which is what they're already doing.

Maybe ESPN should’ve kept him as an analyst instead of some of the nonsensical people they continue to put on during the week.

Why are all the rural states governors, senators and congressmen selling out their constituents at the exact same time in the exact same way?
It was a wonderful evening celebrating Diwali with Bismarck’s Indian community! Diwali reminds us of the power of light over darkness and the importance of choosing hope, even in challenging times. We are grateful for the opportunity to celebrate this meaningful tradition, experience such a vibrant culture, and recognize the many contributions the Indian community makes to our state. Thank you for your warm hospitality and for allowing us to share in this special celebration. We are grateful to have you as part of our North Dakota community and honored to serve you!

Got my ballot. Went straight to I-645. It repeals the 9.9% tax on income over $1 million. And it bans an income tax on the rest of us. Then read the last line the AG put on it. Repealing it "would decrease funding for public K-12 education, higher education, and human services." Not a fact. A warning label. Written by the side that wants the tax. It works, too. One poll asked it two ways. With that sentence, keep the tax 57%, repeal 35%. Without it, 44% to 40%. One sentence. 22 points. They start with millionaires. They never stop at millionaires. Read the whole thing. Then fill in your bubble like you mean it. What line on your ballot made you mad, Warriors?

I’m voting YES on all 3 ballot initiatives. - yes to repeal a state income tax - yes to protect girls sports - yes for parents rights in schools The ballot language is intentionally confusing and untruthful, help out your friends and neighbors.

This man urinated in his own grandson’s mouth after months of sexually abusing him. But when he wasn’t doing that he was writing legislation addressing “antisemitism” and limiting your free speech. These people should not have freedom, much less the ability to limit yours.
The same man helping to make antisemitism laws restricting, your speech has been arrested for molesting his own grandson. The affidavit says that he urinated in his grandson’s mouth, but for whatever reason, the law that he helped pass is still on the books. Should people who are molesting children, especially members of their own family, be able to make laws that put restrictions on your speech?

Make no mistake, people who travel from city to city to partake in riots are terrorists.
Een Syriër die in de UK woont, reist naar Parijs om mee te rellen. Tijdens zijn livestream roept hij op om hetzelfde in het Verenigd Koninkrijk, London te doen. Dit heeft het Westen massaal geïmporteerd.

You have no choice but to save the United States. There is literally nowhere left to go. This is it. The last bastion. The Alamo. Last stop Saloon. If the US completely falls, it's checkmate Earth. There's nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, you can't opt out. There is no Shire.
