GOP leaders ask U.S. Supreme Court to halt Pa. voting extension The two top Republicans in Pennsylvania's Senate petitioned the United States Supreme Court on Monday to put a halt to the three-day extension for counties to receive and count mail-in ballots this November. At issue is the Pennsylvania Supreme Court's ruling this month that mail-in ballots postmarked by 8 p.m. on Election Day and delivered to county offices by mail during the three days following the Nov. 3 election — as long as they're received by 5 p.m. Nov. 6 — shall be counted. Arguing that the state Supreme Court violated federal law and the U.S. Constitution by altering the rules of the election and superseding the legislature's authority, Republicans are asking the nation's highest court to restore the original received-by ballot deadline — 8 p.m. on Election Day — pending the outcome of their forthcoming request for the court to review the ruling. </snip>

You are not alone.

This is much more concise and a better explanation than my babbling:

That is betting a lot on an "if."

Ummm wow.

When will accountability happen? WILL accountability happen? (And the NYT tax story was written in 2016 with a lot of er, interviews and non-tax return data points)

Another day, another peace prize nomination for Trump: The ‘Trump Doctrine’ earns President third Nobel Peace Prize nomination Eminent law professor David Flint is among four Australian law professors who are nominating US President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize on the basis of the “Trump Doctrine”. </snip>

Pelosi begins mustering Democrats for possible House decision on presidency The speaker sent a letter emphasizing local races, in case a tie in the Electoral College requires state delegations to vote. Speaker Nancy Pelosi has begun mobilizing Democrats for the possibility that neither Joe Biden nor President Donald Trump will win an outright Electoral College victory, a once-in-a-century phenomenon that would send the fate of the presidency to the House of Representatives to decide. Under that scenario, which hasn’t happened since 1876, every state’s delegation gets a single vote. Who receives that vote is determined by an internal tally of each lawmaker in the delegation. This means the presidency may not be decided by the party that controls the House itself but by the one that controls more state delegations in the chamber. And right now, Republicans control 26 delegations to Democrats’ 22, with Pennsylvania tied and Michigan a 7-6 plurality for Democrats, with a 14th seat held by independent Justin Amash. </snip>

Twitter Not sure if the warning will show here, so here is the image:

Sleepy Joe is "preparing for a debate." If he cannot campaign at the same time, how will he have the energy to run the country? That 3am wake-up call? Heck, he'd be napping for a 3pm call.

AtC is not an idiot, but she is bombastic. Anyhoooo still not sure the report is more than a guess at his taxes. 🤷‍♀️ They examined "employee compensation" wtf!? "Draws on interviews" shesh... Her take: The comments to her tweets (as I recall, she is an attorney) are interesting from CPAs and the like saying how this has been twisted. Duh. That is the point. They do not follow politics.

If they are going to be a disaster this year (new coach or not), may as well embrace it and get a generational talent as a result.

What is being done to our children under the guise of "save grandma and grandpa!" is criminal. The teacher's unions the "msm" and the colleges all need some time on the rack. I just hope the cynic in me that says November 4th this is all over, is correct.

He’s purdy no matter what he does/doesn’t wear. Mmmmm 💕

It would not surprise me at all. Possibly a way to "force" Trump to release his real tax returns to refute the NYT claims? And as a bonus, people keep repeating whatever it is the NYT is reporting as the gospel truth. A win-win for the Biden campaign. Trump denies New York Times report detailing his tax returns and financial problems: 'It's totally fake news' * President Donald Trump fielded questions from reporters on Sunday following an article by The New York Times that delved into his tax returns and detailed his financial woes. * "It's totally fake news. Made up, fake," Trump said. * Asked by reporters to be transparent about how much he paid in taxes, the president replied: "It's under audit, they've been under audit for a long time." </snip>

If I was sure no one would ever track me down...

No, not so... and carry forwards are also helpful

There is a big difference between a loss (no profit) and a paper loss. 🙂

I have spoken to the idea of Trump's taxes many times in this forum, and I will say it again: 1) Most people have no idea how real estate taxes work in regards to depreciation and what you pay, when. 2) The Feds ALWAYS get their money. You can delay as often aspossible while alive (including depreciation, 1031s, etc), but the Feds will get their taxes eventually. (Note: some years you owe. You may not have made any money, but due to circumstances you owe, and owe big. The Feds do not care, they want their check. They have zero ***** to give on where you get that money.) Now, since Trump is so many years into this, I would hope he's been paying next to nothing due to depreciation and exchanges for many years. If he is not, he needs to fire his accountants. 🙂

No idea where to put this... Synopsis: Trump finds a legal way to pay less taxes. And, while the article was definitely unflattering:

He's definitely growing as a QB. The next 10 years should be fun! I still have him as 0 interceptions. That "interception" was bull####. How that call was not overturned is beyond me.
