S Corporations have always been seen as a way to protect owner earnings from Social Security taxation.  The requirements are that the owners have to take salaries that represent a reasonable level of compensation for the services performed, with the remainder being seen as "profits" not subject to SS.

The Biden's took $800k as salary (and paid SS taxes).  Good luck arguing he's worth more when you're currently paying him $400k per year.

Should we talk about Trump's taxes?  I guess it's a good idea to try and establish some moral equivalency before Allen Weisselberg starts talking in court...

Ask your boy...that makes him smart.


This is probably the best take on the whole thing. It's not like he claimed a $24,000 a year salary.

Somehow people think it is wrong to use legal means to reduce your taxes, even if you recognise those loopholes are bad policy that should be changed. Lets see the republicans get behind reform to prevent this if they don't like it benefitting Biden.

The Mendacity of Joe Biden
So it has been incredibly painful to witness the treatment of the Haitians, and it has been impossible not to recoil in disgust or burn with outrage. And to think, “This is happening on Joe Biden’s watch.”

When it was reported that then-President Trump called Haiti a shithole country, Biden responded on Twitter saying:

“It’s not how a president should speak. It’s not how a president should behave. Most of all, it’s not what a president should believe. We’re better than this.”

But deporting these Haitians is worse, not better. The Biden administration — and Democrats in general — always seem to say the right things on racial issues, but too often their deeds come up short when measured against their talk.

As a justification for many of the deportations, the Biden administration invoked Title 42, which is a law that allows deportations based on supposed “health risks.” The Associated Press pointed out, “The Trump administration invoked it in March 2020 to sweeping effect, prohibiting entry by virtually anyone from Mexico and Canada and essentially sealing the northern and southern borders.” Isn’t that ironic.

What’s more, these particular migrants were being deported to a country many haven’t been to in years. Many of them didn’t leave Haiti in 2021; they left it years ago. And they were being deported into danger. Haiti has recently been devastated by an earthquake, flooding from a hurricane, and the assassination of the president.

The administration’s own special envoy to Haiti resigned Thursday, refusing to be part of the administration’s “inhumane” expulsions regime, citing the fact that Haiti is so dangerous right now that even “American officials are confined to secure compounds because of the danger posed by armed gangs to daily life.”

US is flying Central Americans to Mexico to deter crossings. Seeing Trump and raising, Biden still isn't doing what you want, I guess. "Choot 'em!" must be the only way, yeah?

Let me get this straight.

You need a passport to eat in a restaurant but anyone can waltz across the border without one and get hooked up with all kinds of goodies and freebies.

This is fucking bizarre and incomprehensible.

Fuck you Joe and everyone who voted for you.

Biden is far more competent and honest than Trump could ever hope to be. Trump set up the US for failure in Afghanistan when he negotiated with the Taliban and did not include Afghanistan's government.

If you still "mostly" support Trump, you really weren't paying attention to his presidency—-except perhaps his anti-immigration policies.

Good to know you still have a hard-on for a guy who can't stop lying and who incited a failed insurrection.  Oh yes: and who also set up our rushed exit from Afghanistan. So much winning...
