#idiot47 #republicans #GOP #tarrifs #illegaltariffs ##TaxationWithoutRepresentation I hope every voter in the United States realizes that they, consumers, have paid illegal taxes imposed by a tyrant and will never receive a penny of those illegal taxes back. Meanwhile, Amazon and all the major corporations involved in importing received huge refunds. Remember that 250 years ago American colonists started a revolution with the rallying cry, “NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION!”
The Trump administration has paid $100 billion in tariff refunds. Consumers shouldn’t expect to see much of it. https://www.nbcnews.com/business/consumer/trump-tariff-refunds-consumers-unlikely-rcna591129

Please copy and paste into the forms on the websites of your members of Congress and share with friends.
Dear Senator / Representative --
I would like you to support the Termination Resolution that Senator Chris Van Hollen and Congressman Jamie Raskin introduced Tuesday. Van Hollen and Raskin’s Termination Resolution is a provision within the Home Rule Act that allows Congress to move quickly to overturn the policing overreaction in Washington DC being pursued by this Republican Administration. I ask that you support this resolution as quickly as possible.
A quick review of national crime statistics shows a dozen cities across this nation with higher crime rates than Washington DC. Were this Republican Administration serious about reducing crime in cities, they would fully fund the dozens of successful programs already proven to counter violent crime.
Please work to put an end to this political stunt and pass legislation to hire police, create diversion programs, and restore balance to the policing of the nearly 700,000+ residents of Washington DC who lack full representation in Congress (unlike the 500,000+ residents of Wyoming - no offense intended to Wyoming).

#idiot47 #tariffs #GOP #republicans #TaxationWithoutRepresentation Here it is fellow US voters. Our taxes just went up about 10% — all by the whim of one man. Congress did not pass a new tax, but Congress just rolled over and let this one man usurp the most dangerous power in government, the power to tax. Now idiot47 is using that power to destroy homes, families, and the US economy. I hope all those libertarians who voted for the idiot and his party let this reality sink-in.
New tariffs snap into effect, putting Trump’s global trade reset into high gear https://www.nbcnews.com/business/business-news/trump-tariffs-latest-round-takes-effect-thursday-august-7-2025-rcna223461

Recently heard an interview where the director of the Independent California Institute said, "Californians are second-class citizens in a third-rate democracy." We deserve better.

@5klp471 If you check out the voting/voter history of the District of Columbia you'll find that argument doesn't accomplish anything. #DistrictofColumbia #TaxationWithoutRepresentation

This is your aperiodic reminder that the population of Washington DC is 671k and the population of Wyoming is 581k. Why is Wyoming a state and DC not?
