So, shooting a black assailant to save a black victim isn't allowed?

Anybody else think we've slipped into a bad episode of 'The Twilight Zone'.

^^ Well, that does tell you what Uncah Joe really thinks of black people, doesn't it?

Recall, Joe once said, "..... unarmed person with a knife."

Many people, including Joe don't understand that a knife is dangerous, which is another matter of ignorance.

Perhaps I don't know enough about the chain of command, but I don't understand why the Governors of TX and AZ (CA and NM are a lost cause) don't simply deploy their Guard and stop this shit.

Here’s Arizona governor, Doug Ducey declaring a “state of emergency” and acting unilaterally to send the National Guard in the absence of any responses from the biden administration.

NM is going to get hammered with criminals.

CA actually wants more welfare cases and is now asking people to foster unaccompanied minors. Knowing CA there is probably a waiting list.

Texas is having a tough go of it but we are saturated. We actually have a tent city set up here in town. Will try to grab a few photos of it. But the libtards here don’t seem to see any of this as a problem

NBC 'News' edited the 911 call to take out the references the caller made about the girl trying to stab them and also edited the video of the bodycam footage, taking out any shots of the girl trying to stab them. Then they report 'officials say' she had a knife.

'Authorities say' she had a knife:

Wasn’t it NBC also that edited the George Zimmerman 911 call, taking out the operator asking if the person was white, black, or Hispanic?

NBC seems to have a habit of editing 911 calls to make the narrative fit the left wing agenda.

They're right up there with the Washington Post, the New York Times, MSNBC, and CNN. I never click on their shit and wouldn't believe their weather reports.

Watch Live: Biden Unveils Plan To Slash US Greenhouse Gas Emissions By 50% During Global Climate Summit

https://www.zerohedge.com/poli...lobal-climate-summit

President Biden is reportedly aiming to reduce the US greenhouse gas emissions by 50% to 52% (compared with 2005 levels) by the year 2030, according to a flurry of leaked reports in the NYT and other media outlets Thursday morning.

These new measures will force Americans to transform the way they drive, heath their homes and manufacture goods as Biden drags America toward the distant goal of carbon neutrality.

The reports hit just hours before the start of President Biden's virtual climate summit, where he will be joined by a host of world leaders, including President Vladimir Putin, of Russia, and President Xi Jinping, of China. The virtual two-day summit is slated to begin Thursday at 0800ET. Biden planned the summit around Earth Day to help proclaim the US's "return to a position of global leadership on the issue" of climate change, according to the NYT.

Tell me a single one of these 'news' outlets that hasn't edited video and audio to lie to us. They're all the enemy. Treat them as such.

Ah yes, cripple the US economy, plunge its population into 3rd world status, so that other countries like China and India can pollute to their hearts content while churning out crap for the American consumer market. I hate this urine soaked POS and every single one of his America hating cabal of retards and grifters. There better not be a single Republican in Washington that sides or signs onto a single piece of this retarded agenda.

That's the plan!

Also, Russia and China will form a strategic alliance and as the US economy crumbles... the US military will fade into paper tiger status. It takes economic prowess to have military prowess.

Notice how little coverage the border is getting now? Not seeing much/any of the detention facilities operating at hundreds of percent overcapacity any more. Kids lined up like cordwood with space blankets.

Distract/deflect/repeat.

It's going to take decades to undo the damage that has occurred the past few months...

At some point the media needs common sense 1st amendment restrictions. If their intentional misrepresentation of facts causes violence they need to be held accountable. I am past the point of being disgusted with these feckless regressive fucks in the media attacking my 2nd amendment right while recklessly and clearly abusing their 1st amendment protections.

Biden Plans Capital Gains Tax Hike To Help Finance $1.5 Trillion "Human Infrastructure" Package

https://www.zerohedge.com/poli...frastructure-package

Hours after the NYT published its report about the details of Biden's "human infrastructure plan," Bloomberg followed up with a series of headlines that sent markets reeling: Biden is set to propose a capital gains tax as high as 43.4% for the wealthiest Americans. For context, the top rate is currently 23.8%.

BIDEN TO PROPOSE CAPITAL GAINS TAX AS HIGH AS 43.4% FOR WEALTHY
PROPOSAL WOULD MEAN 52.22% TOTAL CAPITAL GAIN LEVY IN NY STATE
TOP RATE WOULD BE PAID BY THOSE MAKING MORE THAN $1 MILLION
Markets puked on the news, likely because - as we explained earlier - expectations of a higher cap gains rate would incentivize investors to sell to lock in their gains before the higher rate takes effect. Of course, if the tax is retroactive to 2021, then there's no point in selling because it would already be too late to lock in a lower rate.

* * *

The NYT has just published the first "official" leak detailing the outline of President Biden's "American Family Plan", the second part of his administration's signature "Build Back Better" proposal (the first part, entitled the "American Jobs Plan", was unveiled during a live press briefing in Pittsburgh earlier this month).

The second phase of Biden's sweeping "Green New Deal"-inspired program centers on what administration officials call "human infrastructure".

Should it pass in its current form, it would entail spending hundreds of billions of dollars on universal pre-kindergarten, expanded subsidies for child care, a national paid leave program for workers and free community college tuition for all.

While the overhaul will raise taxes on investors and millionaires via a proposal for a top marginal income tax rate at 39.6% (up from 37%, the level it was reduced to under Trump) a controversial increase in capital gains tax for individuals earning more than $1 million per year (raising the rate to 39.6% from 20%) was also included as part of the package described by the NYT.

Of course, any change in capital gains rates could have potentially profound implications for financial markets: if the new rate taxes effect next year, there could be serious selling pressure on stocks before year-end 2021 as investors seek to lock in gains at the lower rate.

What's more, the plan in its current form will also propose eliminating a provision of the tax code that reduces taxes for wealthy heirs who sell assets they inherit, like art or property, that have risen in value. As he discussed during the rollout of pt. 1, the package would also raise revenue by increasing enforcement at the IRS to bring in more money from wealthy Americans who evade taxes. All provisions under discussion would keep the tax rate on individuals earning $400k per year or less steady, in keeping with a promise made during the campaign. During his briefing in Pittsburgh, Biden said he would remain open to all revenue suggestions, so long as they don't violate this one rule.

Other tax provisions regarding the estate tax and capping dedications on the wealthy are also in play. While rich Democrats demand that Biden find a way to remove the cap on SALT deductions that was included in President Trump's landmark tax cuts, the NYT reports that the plan would extend through 2025 an expanded tax credit for parents (essentially a monthly payment from the government for most families) that was created on a temporary basis by the $1.9 trillion economic aid package signed into law last month.

Some Democrats have pushed Biden to make that tax credit permanent, arguing that it would dramatically reduce child poverty. Those pushing Mr. Biden include Senators Michael Bennet of Colorado, Cory Booker of New Jersey and Sherrod Brown of Ohio, along with Representatives Rosa DeLauro of Connecticut, Suzan DelBene of Washington and Ritchie Torres of New York. Conservatives worry that expanding the child tax credit would incentivize poor mothers to have more children out of wedlock.

The family plan will also include some type of extension for an expanded Earned Income Tax Credit, which was included in the earlier aid package on a one-year basis.

“Expansion of the child tax credit is the most significant policy to come out of Washington in generations, and Congress has an historic opportunity to provide a lifeline to the middle class and to cut child poverty in half on a permanent basis,” the lawmakers said this week in a joint statement. “No recovery will be complete unless our tax code provides a sustained pathway to economic prosperity for working families and children."

Previous iterations of Biden's "human infrastructure plan" circulated inside the White House called for raising revenues by enacting measures to reduce the cost of prescription drugs purchased by the federal government via medicare and medicaid, but these measures have been set aside for now; they might make an appearance later in a plan to expand Medicare that's still in its incipient stages.

All told with tax credits and spending, the plan is expected to cost $1.5 trillion. When combined with the $2.25 trillion "American Jobs Plan", the total cost of the overhaul is slated at just below $4 trillion.

President Biden will propose a hike in the capital gains tax

The new rate of 39.6 percent would apply to wealthy taxpayers with incomes over one million dollars. The 3.8 percent investment income tax that funds part of Obamacare would also apply, bringing to top rate to 43.4 percent.

Biden has also indicated that he favors raising the top marginal tax bracket to 39.6 percent for those making more than $400,000 a year. The top rate was reduced to 37 percent in Trump’s Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Prior to that, it had been 39.6 percent since 2013, when it was raised from 35 percent. Biden has said that he wants to tax capital on par with labor.

Capital gains rates apply when an asset—such as a house, shares of stock, a business—that has been held over a year are sold for a gain. The current capital gains tax rates are 0 percent for a married couple earning less than $80,000, 15 percent for couples earning more than $80,000 and less than $496,000, or 20 percent for wealthier households.

In addition, a married couple filing jointly must pay the investment income tax of 3.8 percent if their combined income crosses the $250,000 threshold.

The tax hike would hit particularly hard in high-tax blue states that already impose stiff capital gains taxes of their own.

For wealthy New Yorkers, the combined state and federal capital gains rate could be as high as 52.22 percent.

For Californians with incomes over $1 million, the rate could be 56.7 percent.
