  Biden Will Seek Tax Increase on Rich to Fund Child Care and Education President Biden is set to detail the full proposal, which will set up a clash with Republicans, next week. Al Drago for The New York Times WASHINGTON — President Biden will seek new taxes on the rich, including a near doubling of the capital gains tax for people earning more than $1 million a year, to pay for the next phase in his $4 trillion plan to reshape the American economy. Mr. Biden will also propose raising the top marginal income tax rate to 39.6 percent from 37 percent, the level it was cut to by President Donald J. Trump’s tax overhaul in 2017. The proposals are in line with Mr. Biden’s campaign promises to raise taxes on the wealthy but not on households earning less than $400,000. The president will lay out the full proposal, which he calls the American Family Plan, next week. It will include about $1.5 trillion in new spending and tax credits meant to fight poverty, reduce child care costs for famil

  A big step forward was taken in confronting America's original and biggest sin with the conviction of ex police officer Chauvin on all three counts in the murder trial of George Floyd.  The 12 jurors made the correct and therefore moral decision based on all the evidence presented. America has the opportunity to finally and completely face its ugly past regarding its historically racist treatment of people of color. Time and time alone will tell if America will finally grow into actually living its professed ideals of liberty and justice for all.

  Today, in America, Justice was served. Let this be the beginning of the journey to finally create the more perfect and just union ALL Americans are entitled to. I n America it is EVERYONES birthright and after 234 years of systemic racism let the process of rectifying evil and healing begin. Justice cannot bring George Floyd back but tonight The Floyd family felt justice. America, white America, should join them in celebrating justice and honoring George Floyd's legacy. Chauvin Found Guilty of Murdering George Floyd Mr. Chauvin, a former Minneapolis police officer, was found guilty of second-degree murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter. The death of Mr. Floyd spurred the largest civil rights protests in decades.

  While The "Oath Keepers" have been around for awile tRump, FAUX Snooze, and other extreme rightwing media gave these terrorists the green light and encouragement to go mainstream. Insurrection at the Capitol on January 6, 2021 was the result. Unless these terrorist vigilantes are brought to heel Anerican democracy remains in peril. Wake up America! h/t: Progressive Eruptions

  Marjorie Taylor Greene Forming Caucus To Promote ‘Anglo-Saxon Political Traditions’  Suppprters Of Trumpism, Anti Democracy, and Inequality Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) are starting a right-wing caucus in Congress that seeks to “follow in President Trump’s footsteps,” which could prove yet another thorn in the side of Republican leaders already struggling to unite a bitterly divided party. According to a  seven-page policy platform  published by Punchbowl News, the group wants members to display “a certain intellectual boldness” and be willing to “step on some toes and sacrifice sacred cows” – in other words, break with the GOP on some issues. Among the group’s positions are a belief in unfounded claims of widespread election fraud and support for voting restrictions, as well as an effort to roll back all coronavirus safety measures and “make sure we do not overreact to a pandemic in this same way again.” A lengthy passage on immigration says the U.S.

All Very Good News... May America Trash The GQP Trumpublican Party!

  Lawmakers Who Voted Against Certifying Biden’s Victory Saw Drop in Business Contributions WASHINGTON—Republican members of Congress who voted against certifying President Biden’s victory after the Jan. 6 Capitol riot saw a sharp drop in donations from business and industry political-action committees in the first quarter of this year, new federal filings show. PACs for companies, trade associations, unions, cooperatives and membership groups gave $1.3 million in the first quarter of the year to the campaigns of the 147 Republican election objectors, according to a Wall Street Journal analysis of quarterly reports filed by Thursday’s deadline. That was down about 80% from $6.7 million donated by such groups to the lawmakers in the first quarter in 2019, a comparable period in the last election cycle, the Journal found...

A Very Brief History Of Speaker John Boehner...

  A case could be just as easily made that like Senator Byrd (the one tine KKK member) Speaker Boehner has had a sincere change of heart as he begin to realize the errors of his former ways. Then again. Only time will determine whether Mr. Boehner has really had an honest sincere change of heart. Like I've been known to say from time to time, a leopard can't change its spots. But rational humans really aren't leopards now are they.

The Fraudulent Economic Claims Of The Con Republicans...

  Middle class America, do not listen to the economic plans of the con republican/conservatives. If you do you are willfully and foolishly ignoring your own economic interests. Trumpublicans economics are absolutely the most egregiously anti egalitarian economic hodgepodge ever thrown together by modern American president.

Charles Rettig, the commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service, said during a Senate Financ Committee hearing that the agency lacks the resources to go after tax cheats. Credit... Anna Moneymaker for The New York Times   The United States is losing approximately $1 trillion in unpaid taxes every year, Charles Rettig, the Internal Revenue Service commissioner, estimated on Tuesday, arguing that the agency lacks the resources to catch tax cheats. The so-called tax gap has surged in the last decade. The last official estimate from the I.R.S. was that an  average of $441 billion  per year went unpaid from 2011 to 2013. Most of the unpaid taxes are the result of evasion by the wealthy and large corporations, Mr. Rettig said. More BELOW the FOLD .

Restricting The Right To Vote By The Trumpublican GQP (aka G-GOP) Part Is An Immoral And Evil Act...

  Hundreds of Companies Unite to Oppose Voting Limits, but Others Abstain Amazon, Google, G.M. and Starbucks were among those joining the biggest show of solidarity by businesses over legislation in numerous states. It is good to see reputable responsible companies in the hundreds opposing the Trumpublicans efforts to limit (restrict) the voting rights of minorities in America. The insidious plan by the Trumpublicans to disenfranchise certain voting demographics is immoral and evil. Period. On to the article... The New York Times - Amazon, BlackRock, Google, Warren Buffett and hundreds of other companies and executives signed on to a new statement released on Wednesday opposing “any discriminatory legislation” that would make it harder for people to vote. It was the biggest show of solidarity so far by the business community as companies around the country try to navigate the partisan uproar over Republican efforts to enact new election rules in almost every state.

The scourge of Trumpism will survive, unfortunately. Along with its irrational logic and anti American "America First" lie. Trumpism's agenda is all about preserving white priviledge and supremacy as well as insuring the very wealthy and corporations remain firmly in control of ...  everything.                                                    Duh... Duh... Duh, and Duh Again Axios -   A constellation of Trump administration stars today will launch the   America First Policy Institute , a 40-person nonprofit group with a first-year budget of $20 million, and the mission of perpetuating former President Trump's populist policies. Why it matters:  Two top Trump alumni tell me AFPI is by far the largest pro-Trump outside group, besides Trump's own Florida-based machine. In coming months, the group plans to take a large office space near the U.S. Capitol as a symbol that it'll fight to be a muscular, well-heeled center of the future of conservatism. I'm told

The Stench Of Mitch McConnell and the Trumpublican GQP (aka Q-GOP)...

Reed Galen of The Lincoln Projec t has it exactly right. With any luck, likely won't come for some years, the goons of the Trumpublican GQP (aka Q-GOP) will disappear and their anti democracy pro white supremacy stench will be gone from Washington DC.   By Reed Galen I n Washington, it’s rare to see or hear Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) visibly upset.  In remarks and a statement  earlier this week, a clearly perturbed McConnell told Corporate America to mind its own business when it comes to democracy and stay out of politics. To the layperson, his demeanor would appear no different than the thousands of other monotone, barely audible threats the Senate Minority Leader has muttered over the years. But this was different. McConnell was enraged. The very core of his still-considerable power is under threat from a Corporate America that understandably wants nothing to do with a growing list of voter suppression bills McConnell’s allies in the states are ramming through legislatures a
