(I guess he thought he could write off face paint, leather jackets, and bass guitar strings as work related expenses).

CHT it is ok he is a Socialist Democrat.
Like Luddite Cortez owing back taxes.
I can't think of anyone who has had such a bad start to a political campaign.
This is the exact opposite of the Kennedy magic touch.
Fox town hall.
Bernie Sanders , health care will be free with higher taxes.
Lol.
I saw that on Fox News. His partisans actually bought that nonsense.
@JHWeissmann
Here's how much of their income 2020 Dems gave to charity in 2017:
Beto - 0.31% (no, that's not a typo)
Harris - 1.4%
Gillibrand - 1.7%
Klobuchar - 1.9%
Sanders - 3.4%
Inslee - 4%
Warren - 5.5%
Why does it not surprise me that Warren leads the pack?
CS it was a comedy. But, Fox threated him very well, respectful and zero "got ya" questions.
We know Trump gives $400,000 a year in giving at a bare minimum .
Oh look even the NYT says fatty’s a liar
Experts are divided on whether the tax law was a good idea. But there is little disagreement on this core point: Most people got a tax cut.
The Tax Policy Center estimates that 65 percent of people paid less under the law and that just 6 percent paid more. (The rest saw little change to their taxes.)
Other analyses reached similar conclusions. The Joint Committee on Taxation — Congress’s nonpartisan team of tax analysts — found that every income group would see a tax cut on average. So did the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy, a left-leaning think tank that was sharply critical of the law. In fact, that group went even further: In a December 2017 analysis, it found that every income group in every state would pay less on average under the law in 2019.
So far, tax season seems to be playing out more or less as the experts predicted. H&R Block, the tax-preparation giant, said last week that two-thirds of returning customers had paid less tax this year than last (excluding people who owed no tax in either year). Taxes were down, on average, in every state.
“The vast majority of people did get a tax cut,” said Nathan Rigney, an analyst at H&R Block’s Tax Institute. That’s been clear all along, he added, “just now we have real data to back that up.”
Love the "Experts are divided" line.
The New York Times would rather have root canal then admit Trump was winning.
Look at the headline Face It: You (Probably) Got a Tax Cut, it’s pitiful
This old woman is out of touch.
"I do reject socialism as an economic system," Pelosi said in an interview with "60 Minutes" that aired Sunday. "If people have that view, that's their view. That is not the view of the Democratic Party."
"I do reject socialism as an economic system," Pelosi said in an interview with "60 Minutes"
It's going to be awkward when they nominate a socialist for president.
Jane, Roger and Dennis have not gotten a tax cut.
At least BERNIE Sanders admitted he got a Yuge tax cut on the Fox Town Hall, but he attempted to save face by saying.
"I voted against it"
He took and kept the Trump Tax cut.
CS, the Socialist Democrats have no choice. The only one that isn't a full on Socialist is Biden, and he will not run.
His corruption while VP is being leaked by some one on the Socialist Democrat Party side to knee cap him.
His business deals with his son, with Sec State John Fraud Kerry and his son are seeing the light of day. Not good.
@JackPosobiec
Did You Know:
Hillary is trying to snipe Joe Biden out of announcing bc she knows Obama isn’t supporting him
Obama is behind Kamala/Beto
Team Clinton is trying to clear the way for Terry McAuliffe to announce
Funny. President Trump winning .
"New York Mayor Bill de Blasio threatened to sue the Trump administration if it sends illegal immigrants to New York City, a “sanctuary city.”
Violent crimes and other acts of hate by right-wing extremists and white nationalists are on the rise in this country and around the world. We can no longer ignore that they are being encouraged by the occupant of the highest office in the land. Counties that hosted a 2016 Trump rally saw a 226 percent increase in hate crimes in the months following the rally. And assaults increase when cities host Trump rallies. This is particularly concerning given the president's visit to my home state of Minnesota on Monday," Omar said in her Sunday statement.
"Violent rhetoric and all forms of hate speech have no place in our society, much less from our country's Commander in Chief. We are all Americans. This is endangering lives. It has to stop," said Omar.
The president of the United States shrugs off death threats toward a member of Congress, threats arising from his own hateful words. In fact, he doubled down, saying, “She’s got a way about her that is, I think, very, very bad for our country.”
Go ahead and kill her because she's a Moose Limb.
Trump: "The Mueller Report totally exonerates me!"
US: "Can we see it?"
Trump: "NO! But my finances are clean!"
US: "Can we see them?"
Trump: "NO! But I'm a stable genius!"
US: "Can we see your grades?"
Trump: "NO!"
Hi loser
Did you order your 3rd wife.
Your Facebook page is a joke.
Alky doesn't like real politics so he listens to the voices in his head. But, Roger your using your outside voice loser.
Trump aides are in panic mode. They were all interviewed by the Muller investigation team.
A redacted version of the Mueller report will likely be released on Thursday, and both current and former Trump aides are reportedly in freak-out mode. According to multiple witnesses in the investigation, many are worried that Mueller’s report will expose them as the source of damaging information about the president and are afraid of the potential retribution. “They got asked questions and told the truth, and now they’re worried the wrath will follow,” one former White House official said.
Kput'z, you are an embarrassment to the blog.
Daisy is mooing in pleasure for you.
"Thousands of people were cheering’
Perhaps Mr. Trump’s most incendiary use of the terrorist attacks as a political point was made at a campaign rally in Birmingham, Ala., in 2015.
Mr. Trump, then a presidential candidate, told supporters that on the day of the attack, in Jersey City, just across the Hudson River from Manhattan, “thousands and thousands of people were cheering as that building was coming down. Thousands of people were cheering.”
Mr. Trump said the celebrants were Muslim. Mr. Trump continued to use the talking point throughout his campaign, even as reports of such celebrations were repeatedly debunked.
He has been lying repeatedly about 9/11.
He claimed that he knew hundreds of the people killed in the 9/11 attacks. Once in a debate in the primary and only one more time in the television interview with Chris Matthews. He has never claimed that again. He dishonored the victims of the terrorist attacks on 9/11. He didn't attend a single funeral for any of the thousands who died on that day. And he does the same thing every single day of his term.

Has the Nancy Pelosi and Cuck Shimmer released theirs?
Bernie did, Yuge mistake.
But those are districts that are solidly Democratic,” Pelosi said, picking up a glass of water. “This glass of water would win with a D next to its name in those districts.”
Luddite Cortez is a empty water glass.
When house dems biggest win in their first 100 days is delaying the SOTU a week while no fewer than 18 are running for the presidential nomination and party leaders continue to embrace antisemitism, its easy to conclude that the party is out of control.
Trump wins again.
Trump aides are in panic mode.
Really? Let me guess.
More anonymous sources providing the second hand hearsay to WaPo, NYT, CNN, and MSNBC?
How did all those anonymous sources get the collusion delusion wrong?
AG Barr is kicking illegal aliens ads.
Nice to have a real AG back in the Office and using the power.
What a dumb Socialist Democrat.
"Mayor Pete Buttigieg will stop calling Vice President Mike Pence and other Republican evangelicals “Pharisees” after Jewish critics expressed concern about using the word."
He did not know of what he speaks.
It is not April 1st, 2019.
But it should be.
"Former Secretary of State and failed 2004 presidential candidate John Kerry is reportedly thinking about making another White House run, but he told the New York Times on Tuesday that he is waiting to see if former Vice President Joe Biden will officially enter the 2020 race.
“I want to see what Joe is going to do,” Kerry reportedly told the Times. Kerry reportedly “acknowledged that he had given some consideration to making a 2020 presidential bid of his own.”
If he runs he is Alky's "landslid" choice.
