Probably never been easier to help save lives.

Get thee to a CVS, take the free jab. Do it again in a month.

The end.
I'm with Hudson on this one. Nuke 'em from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

I'm sick of seeing hundreds of Americans still dying every day from a disease we can now easily prevent.

McConnell decries Biden's plan to tax the unrealized capital gains of millionaires when they die, calling it "a second estate tax" that could be "a devastating blow" to some families —>
bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
“These are not necessarily rich people," McConnell said. "These are people that worked hard throughout their lifetime and would like to be able to leave behind a family farm or their small business to their children.”

*BUT*, Biden has a family farm/small biz exemption, so...
Bloomberg reported earlier that the heirs of Jeff Bezos alone could face a tax bill of tens of billions on his ~180B unrealized, untaxed capital gain at death under Biden's plan.

Jeff Bezos' heirs would have to pay tens of billions of additional taxes on his ~$180B untaxed capital gain at death if Biden's tax plan becomes law bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
ceteris paribus
40% estate tax would also apply after ~43% cap gains and Medicare taxes plus potentially some state tax too. Under current law, the never-taxed capital gain goes to zero at death no matter how large.

I haven't heard this complaint about Fox News before.
Apparently a senator getting his news from Fox News ... chyrons? That is if I'm reading this tweet correctly. Not 💯% sure.
Also, I think if Google had been named Goggle we still would all be using it and we'd all be Goggling everything. "What have you Goggled today" and so on.

One proposal with few visible opponents among the voting public but never seems to get anywhere in Congress:

A la carte cable.
There are conservatives who would love to stop paying MSNBC every month and liberals who would love to stop paying for Fox; people who wonder why their bill includes a massive payment to some billionaire team owners for a local sports network they never watch, and on and on.
You can cut the cord, but streaming services don't yet offer rifle shot a la carte subscriptions to each of the channels you want.

Biden targets a tax break for rich real estate investors that allows them to avoid ever paying capital gains tax bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Folks may not know this, but real estate investors can often flip their profits into new properties without paying tax through this tax break. And when they die, all their accumulated cap gains winnings die with them.
So Biden would nix the tax break on real estate gains above $500K, and then, when you die, unrealized cap gains >$1M would be taxed.

Smaller-time investors wouldn't see a change.

Biden tax plan expands marriage penalty for some wealthier two-income couples on combined income north of $509K bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Admin says tax hike will hit ~1% highest earning taxpayers + corps. The big cap gains hike is limited to taxpayers with income exceeding $1M/Year - about 0.3% of taxpayers.
There's an existing marriage penalty for some very high-income couples written into Trump's tax law.
