Wait, so state tax deductions are back in?
I need to not fucking pay income tax twice.

Partially back - you can deduct up to 10,000.

Phew. I can relax a little. But mostly still really mad about this total shit sandwich.

Who did he do that with? I'm forgetting. Too many firings.

I'm pretty sure he was very supportive of Flynn before he left. The same with Priebus.

And Price

Somewhere on FB I read 45 threw a coffee pot down a hallway and I giggled with glee.
Also til that they have never prosecuted anybody under the Logan act.

I love the visual but there's no way Trump gets his own coffee

You know what I bet we won't see?

Partially back - you can deduct up to 10,000.

I thought it was just property taxes?

No word on exemptions, though... doubling the standard deduction does not account for those additional exemption monetary value your family of 3+ have that will equate to an exemption higher than $11,400 (since the current standard deduction is $12,600 for married couples)

And this was already included in the house bill. Omfg Collins.

[cp3]

So the new tax bill is almost 500 pages and includes handwritten edits that are unreadable. This is insane.

Insane just brushes the surface. Honestly pushing this bill through in this manner should be considered criminal.

Desperate more like. They know they have a limited amount of time to make their rich friends happy, so they're trying to push it through before their opportunity is lost. Thieves and liars, the lot of them.

Garrison always gave me the creepy old man vibe. For whatever reason, this story did not surprise me in the least.

I say don't let the door hit you in the @zz. I cant stand that guy, or Prairie Home Companion. Im a die hard public radio listener and supporter. But weekends were wrecked cause that guy. So long.

[Deleted]

WTF is this shit. For fuck’s sake.

[piratecat]

I mean wtf. Each senator should have to take and pass a quiz to prove that they’ve read and understood the bill in its entirety to be eligible to vote yay or nay. It’s not like this is their job or it will have significant impact on people’s lives or anything.

This is where I am at right now. It is unacceptable that they are trying to pass this with handwritten notes changing it. And yet, here we are. It would never fly in other settings.

If this bill was so great they wouldn't need to be all cloak and dagger with it
