AT&T said they are giving $1000 bonuses to 200,000 employees because of the tax bill so if you have AT&T expect your bill to go up a few dollars in the future.

It's extra comical because AT&T's effective tax rate was already low, at 8%, so the cut likely doesn't do much for them. It's all about sucking up to Trump to get the AT&T / Time Warner merger approved out of court. Yet, they're still better than Comcast.

I HAVE GOOD AIDS posted:Meanwhile, Nikki Haley says we’ll be “taking names” of whoever votes against the US in a non-binding UNGA vote calling for the embassy to not be moved to Jerusalem. I guess we’re just gonna go to war with everyone to be on the safe side. The hate squash really is as dumb as his supporters isn't he. He really thinks that foreign aid is some chump's game where we just hand out billions of dollars for no reason at all. I wonder if China expected us to make it this easy for them to replace us as the predominant superpower.

Donnie Dumbfuck said the quiet part out loud again, instead of just zeroing out the individual mandate and moving on with celebrating the tax plan he's patting his own back about how Obamacare is repealed now. So while the MAGA CHUDs will forever suck his dick about bigly owning the libs it's a really great way for everyone else to be reminded that the GOP owns the economy and health care when anything goes wrong.

And an estimated 13 million people are going to lose healthcare because of this, because the bill repeals the individual mandate part of the ACA. This, of course, will let people choose to not buy health insurance, and they won't be penalized for it. This will completely change the risk pools that insurance companies create, which will of course increase the cost of insurance premiums for millions of Americans. Millions won't be able to afford insurance any longer because the premiums will go up. Not to mention the fact that Susan Collins completely hosed up and got duped by McConnell, because there is absolutely no way that McConnell is going to vote to increase the payments to insurance companies to stabilize the markets, because those markets are now going to be completely hosed over. As are an estimated 13 million Americans. gently caress McConnell, gently caress Ryan, gently caress Trump, gently caress all the Republicans that voted for this piece of poo poo bill. But especially gently caress Jeff Flake and Susan Collins. I can't believe that dumb oval office has the gall to say and complain that the coverage of her getting duped by McConnell is sexist.

So I know it's California and all, but this seemed to be rather short sighted... https://twitter.com/Fightfor15LA/status/943549809260052480 At least three of these guys are in flippable districts. Five if you want to be really generous.

Specifically, fly into the new airport in Lome, Togo, which serves as a hub for western and central Africa, or drive down a few freshly paved roads in Bissau, Guinea-Bissau, or check out the new Bank of Central African States building being built in Bangui, Central African Republic. All of these things were paid for by Chinese money and built by Chinese companies. We may have a few SF teams doing SFA/FID in some places and some JSOC stuff going on in the Sahel and the Horn, but the Chinese are letting it be known they are investing big and are there to stay. You can’t blame this all on Trump, but he really hasn’t done anything to stop it or try to reassert American influence there.

Bit of a sticky wicket in some of these places and projects no? China doesn't have a problem supporting lovely projects and regimes. Not saying you are wrong but there's no real clear path forward for the US there.

We have embassies in all of the places that I mentioned, minus Guinea Bissau but we still engage with their government from Senegal. And we were also really involved in providing the diplomatic and political backing for South Sudan, which is one roiling cauldron of war crimes, official impunity and other sundry horrors. You’re totally correct that China isn’t going to care about human rights violations or lovely regimes. At least the US has continued to put the screws to Kabila and the DRC over the former’s forgetting to hold elections last year.

I'm dreading Christmas dinner at my future-in-laws because I know someone is going to loving bring this up and I'm gonna have to bite my tongue incredibly hard so as to not ruin the holiday for myself and my fiance. It took her awhile to understand that the estate tax isn't officially called the death tax and that her parents are loving scaremongering about it to her and her siblings when it likely won't affect them and if it does, barely (they are very well off but not THAT well off). The other day out of left field, my future FIL drops this gem "The economy in 98 was good because of the internet, not because of Clinton or anything the government did" No  big enough for that statement.
