About time.
“By raising corporate taxes, the whole package is paid for” so it’s no surprise the rich republicans are saying this is hurting the working class. Trickle down economics is a scam.

Good, the Dems have now sealed their political demise this winter, that’s the real silver lining in all of this. More good news for the GOP!
The Avenger
McConnell has done more harm to Americans than just about anyone. Sadly most can't recognize the years of abuse they have taken from him. He needs to leave and now. He is a power hungry spin doctor.
bass4funk
Lol
Well, he should leave but not because he was ill effective, but because he’s just too much of a swamp creature. We’re it not for McConnell we wouldn’t have over 300 young lower court justices which is a huge deal going into the future.

Just change Dems to Repubs and you nailed it - even Trump saw it....

Trump has nothing to with this thread. Stay focused on the story. Dems leadership in blue states and for the increase in gun sales, assaults and homicides.
Mayoral and gubernatorial races, most definitely and that’s coming to fruition.

Clean energy would be fostered with tax credits for buying electric vehicles and manufacturing solar panels and wind turbines.
Stop this madness.
Bob Fosse
Increase in gun sales and homicides have something to do with this story?
“Stay focused on the story”
Any thoughts on better healthcare and clean energy? I don’t need to hear about bald eagles, thanks.
bass4funk
Guns, guns and homicides are the story
Always
Blacklabel
I agree, this story has nothing to do with Trump.
Unless its mentioned that Dems passing this ridiculous tax and spend further helps Trump backed candidates to win in 2022. and Trump to return in 2024.
Did you see the nonsense where all the Dems who are projected to lose in November voted FOR the Republican amendments? knowing they wouldnt pass and it was safe to pretend they were in support of that issue?
Same group of 4-5 Dems, over and over. Because they knew it wouldnt pass the 60 votes. When it was only 50 votes needed, they voted against the exact same thing. Bernie said none of this will impact inflation AT ALL. He still voted for it anyway. Hypocrisy all around.
But Jan 6th!!!!! or something....
Blacklabel
actually you DO need to hear about bald eagles. because its factual.
They are killed by wind turbines. Why dont you care about that?
"Energy company to pay up to $35 million after turbines killed eagles"
lincolnman
Interesting you prefer not to talk about your hero.....embarrassed he accurately predicted overturning Roe vs Wade will kill Repubs in the Fall?
Better take your own advice. Point out where "gun sales, assaults, and homicides" are referenced in this article about the Inflation Reduction Bill...
The only thing coming to fruition for the Repubs are more subpoenas and indictments....ROFL...
Bob Fosse
Read it (again?) then explain where guns are relevant to this story.
They are not an endangered species and I eat meat. So it would be hypocritical of me to oppose wind turbines because a small percentage of one species of bird get killed by them.
How many get hit by trucks? Don’t you care about that?
Blacklabel
No I am not aware that this is a problem for bald eagles and many other types of birds.
wind turbines are.
Bob Fosse
Illegal shootings is actually the main cause of death for bald eagles. Maybe bass was onto something with his ‘guns’ bit after all.
wallace
Texas has the largest number of wind turbines. 4,137 megawatts. The state's total capacity now stands at 32,686 MW, and nearly 20% of its electricity now comes from wind.
The new wind turbines have different blades which greatly reduce the number of birds killed.
The death of 150 Bald Eagles is sad
https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2022/04/09/eagle-turbine-deaths-settlement/
But not all turbines are in the location of Bald Eagles.
Trump's Wall is also killing low-flying creatures by the many hundreds of thousands.
Blacklabel
I thought he didnt build the wall. Interesting.
How would a wall kill birds?
bass4funk
As well as illegals from entering in the country.

You take my comment out of context for your own snidey remark.
The discussion was from Blacklabel about wind turbines killing Bald Eagles which is sad and needs to be prevented. With our living, we are also killing millions of important creatures like birds and insects which are a vital part of our food growing.
So Texas has the largest number of turbines, shall they stop?
I did not see that in the article.
Blacklabel
The wall like in many other locations, Israel, for instance, kills a wide range of creatures including low-flying birds. We have to think about the impact we have on nature.

Wind turbines cause cancer too, right?

When he’s the focus of the thread, of course.
Definetly won’t reduce taxes and another blow to the inept DNC
Hurry! Time is running out for the left.
bass4funk
No, I did not.
With more faulty and flawed Chinese technology??? Why?
Yes!
Blacklabel
2019 April and about Trump, who is not the subject of this article.
ROFL indeed, my Trump obsessive pal.
lincolnman
So, do you agree or disagree with Trump when he says the Roe vs Wade decision will hurt Repubs and benefit Dems?
https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-scotus-overturning-roe-v-wade-bad-for-republicans-report-2022-6
Uh-huh - so once more, where is "gun sales, assaults, and homicides" mentioned in this article? Point it out please...or just man-up and admit you were wrong and off-topic...
Time is running out on Trump's freedom given his upcoming indictment, by both the DOJ and the Georgia AG....LOL...

Uh-huh - where is "Trump, Roe v. Wade" mentioned in this article? Point it out please...
Blacklabel
this is great because all this supposed "success" means Dems have to keep Biden and have to let him out of the COVID basement.
I was really worried they were just going to hide him until after the midterms. Lets get him back out there in front of the people! So many teleprompters to read and invisible hands to shake.
bass4funk
I disagree
No, and the Dems know it, not unless they want to really make it bad for themselves next year.
lincolnman
So Trump is wrong, off-base, incorrect...after Nov's Repub drubbing, I assume you'll flip and agree with him...
What about wind turbines causing cancer - disagree too?
Yes, just ask Cippolone...
Third time - "gun sales, assaults, and homicides" - where in the article?
blimeylimey
I know, and it's going to be glorious.
