fox news pro walz piece??!
It does make him out to be the ideal candidate. But Iād guess that itās more āanyone but Trumpā motivated.

itās sad that both sides have such weak candidates.
Both President Trump and Senator Vance have substantial private sector experience, which should be required for political office. Vice president Harris and Governor Walz have zero private sector experience. All of them have substantial experience in government.

I donāt believe Kamala is qualified. Having said that, Iāve worked with people that have 30+ years experience in industry and I wonder how on Earth they didnāt get fired before. It isnāt just about experience but what you know and what you do. Trumpās rhetoric is getting old and has historically been counterproductive. If Trump were an employee in an organization, heād be labeled a toxic co-worker and promptly given his pink slip.

+1 Look at the track record of his co.s. Itās funny how some on this group are ok with multiple corp. BK, just not personal BK.
The only people left willing to lend to him were Russian/ German banks. Then he ran for president I wouldnāt consider his years as President āPublic Serviceā. It was a publicity stunt so he could sell more stuff.
Again both sides have weak candidates. Iām even considering voting for RFK. He should have picked a good republican VP candidate. Oh well I hope the GOP getās it act together for 2028!

someone hacked the Trump campaign and leaked their internal assessment of VP Vance, including his shortcomings.

Kamalaās search promoters are making their sponsored ads look like they come from reputable, well, at least recognized news agencies and describe some non-existent article headline favorable to her.
https://www.axios.com/2024/08/13/harris-campaign-google-poltical-ads-news-publishers
The Harris campaign has been editing news headlines and descriptions within Google search ads that make it appear as if the Guardian, Reuters, CBS News and other major publishers are on her side, Axios has found.

Apparently, he ran sweatshops in KY (literally, people passing out in the heatā¦)
Her parents where Marxists, her voting record in the senate was the most far left in 2019 before she became VP of anyone there (until it was memory holed as part of her campaign blitz), and now weāre getting her policy:
News: Kamala Harris will on Friday propose the first ever āfederal ban on corporate price gougingā in the food and grocery industries on Friday, the campaign says in a statement
Will also announce measures on housing & prescription drugs
I guess thereāll be one vote for Marxism and one vote for capitalism on the ballot in November.

Iām sure this will stop inflation too:

No longer protected, not yet pardoned, the First Artist was obviously an unregistered foreign lobbyist - something numerous Trump officials or campaign staff were prosecuted or threatened with by the Biden regime, in a new expansion of crimes previously not considered for anyone. Sadly for Hunter, heās no longer important in the post Kamala coronation media world, so now NYT who hid his crime ridden laptop from voters a few short years ago can do an expose on his crimes.

- Hunter Biden is in the hot seat again. DOJ prosecutors are now alleging the presidentās son and two of his associates accepted payments of up to $3 million from a Romanian businessman who was āattempting to influence U.S. policy and public opinion.ā The new detail emerged in a filing related to the younger Bidenās federal tax fraud case, where he faces up to three felonies and other misdemeanors for allegedly failing to pay his taxes.

Ah! The Brainiac behind the Democrat party candidate has no history education (Iām shocked). He/She/It should ask Tricky Dick, Athletic Gerald, or āIām the smartest man in the roomā Jimmy about price controls, because thatās what this is attempting to be without self-identifying as price controls.

I stand corrected. After seeing and hearing the speech, It appears that whoever wrote it wants prices to be measured. Jeez, all they have to do is ask the BLS. Theyāve been gauging prices and calculating the CPI for decades.

Give us evidence for your statement rather than simply asserting it.
This implies the opposite of your statement
Audit trends vary by taxpayer income. In recent years, IRS audited taxpayers with incomes below $25,000 and those with incomes of $500,000 or more at higher-than-average rates.

DNC releases their 90 page platform of their official election season talking points. The most important thing to start with isā¦ a stolen land acknowledgement 
.
Havenāt read through all of it yet. Meanwhile, at the actual convention, the Democratic elite decide walls for them are a good idea.
In a move that would be laughable if it werenāt so hypocritical, the Democratic Party is set to erect an impenetrable wall around their convention venue in Chicago and require photo ID from everyone who wants to attend. Yes, you read that correctly. The very party that has spent years branding walls as racist and denouncing voter ID laws as discriminatory is now embracing both

Democratic National Convention Land Acknowledgement
The Democratic National Committee wishes to acknowledge that we gather together to state our values on lands that have been stewarded through many centuries by the ancestors and descendants of Tribal Nations who have been here since time immemorial. We honor the communities native to this continent, and recognize that our country was built on Indigenous homelands. We pay our respects to the millions of Indigenous people throughout history who have protected our lands, waters, and animals.
While we meet in Chicago, we also recognize and honor the traditional homelands of the Anishinaabe, also known as the Council of the Three Fires: the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi Nations.
We acknowledge the many other tribes who consider this area their traditional homeland, including the Myaamia, Ho-Chunk, Menominee, Sac and Fox, Peoria, Kaskaskia, Wea, Kickapoo, and Mascouten.
Democrats continue to support tribes as they advocate for the United States to uphold treaty and trust responsibilities. We applaud that in 2024, under the Biden-Harris Administration, the Prairie Band of Potawatomi Nation became the first federally recognized Tribal Nation in Illinois in 175 years, when the U.S. Department of the Interior placed 130 acres of the Shab-eh-nay reservation in nearby DeKalb County into trust.

You first. The article you posted does not provide evidence of sicāing IRS agents on tip workers. I expect most tipped workers make more than $25K/yr. And I have some evidence:
https://www.bls.gov/oes/current/oes353031.htm
Iām also guesstimating that food service has the largest number of tipped employees, so this evidence seems valid.
BTW Iām opposed to the idea of not taxing tips. On the one hand it may simplify compliance for everyone ā employers, employees, and IRS, and this is great. But on the other hand, it creates an incentive for states where minimum wage for tipped and non-tipped employees is the same to change these rules and adopt the federal minimum wage for tipped employees ($2/hr?).
I hate the idea of tipping, with a passion. Itās extremely stupid and counterproductive. We should be trying to get away from it, not run towards it.
