baddog Posted February 17 Report Posted February 17 On 2/17/2025 at 8:32 PM, Reagan said: First of all, sorry for your loss. Second, I actually heard Elon say there were 150 year old people receiving checks. At this point he wasn't sure how many were being cashed or remained uncashed. He said if there are 150 year people, we need to highlight them as impressive! Expand This article says millions. Not sure which is correct, but if this one is true, this is a big part of Biden’s voting base. Quote

Big girl Posted February 19 Report Posted February 19 On 2/10/2025 at 11:11 PM, Reagan said: From the article: "Elon Musk said Monday that his “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE) team discovered that FEMA spent nearly $60 million to house illegal immigrants in “luxury” New York City hotels last week. In response, acting FEMA Director Cameron Hamilton said the payments had been suspended, and the employees who authorized them would be disciplined. “The [DOGE] team just discovered that FEMA sent $59M LAST WEEK to luxury hotels in New York City to house illegal migrants,” Musk posted on X early Monday morning. “Sending this money violated the law and is in gross insubordination to the President’s executive order.” “That money is meant for American disaster relief and instead is being spent on high end hotels for illegals! A clawback demand will be made today to recoup those funds,” Musk added." This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up Expand This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up don't.

baddog Posted February 19 Report Posted February 19 Economy is the flow/circulation of money. Better to circulate it here than a foreign country. You don’t agree? Quote

Just like democrats have always done, you know, the party you never criticize, lol. Folks that think the economy is booming because they got a little money back are low information and are voting democrat anyway. Quote

A single man making 56K, taking standard deduction would owe $4700 in taxes every year. If we can agree that the waste has been going on for AT LEAST 2 years, the average person would have paid $9400 in taxes, so a one time 8K refund would seem reasonable. In normal circumstances I would say no way anyone is getting a refund........but this is Trump, nothing is off the table lol Quote
