Manchin and tax on unrealized capital gains

Someone needs to introduce Joe and his elk to the concept of property taxes. Last I checked the real estate investment in my home gets taxed every year, when the market goes up and when the market goes down. True, I can take out a loan on my home equity just like Bezos can take out a loan on his Amazon stock, difference is he does not have to pay any tax on his stock while he owns it. Sounds like another billionaire don't tax me don't tax me, tax that middle class, law abiding, hard working, family raising, not enough money to buy a senator guy who is not a member of the bourgeoisie.

Vindman

Lt. Col Vindman is a shinning example of the benefits America has reaped from immigrants and their children who have aspired and lived up to the "American" ideals of love of country, service before self, ethical government service and courage over cowardice. Today is a sad day as the republican party in both houses have shamed all that America aspires to be by putting self before country and cowardice over courage in their at best passive and at worst active efforts to destroy the career of Mr. Vindman. In a just world, every single one of these republican traitors would have to serve a tour of duty in Afghanistan knowing their beloved der leader DJT has put a Russian bounty on each of their heads in reward for their "service." STD (Stop the Donald) or this infection will spread.
