White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre emphasized to reporters during her latest briefing how "aligned" Biden and Harris have been during Biden’s term and how the vice president has been a "critical part" of all the president's accomplishments. "[Harris is] going to lay out her vision. But again, they've been aligned, you know, they've been aligned for the last three and a half years. There's not been any daylight," Jean Pierre said.

Cash-Strapped California Inches Closer To Handing Taxpayer Home Loans To Illegal Migrants
California lawmakers are one step closer to making hundreds of millions of taxpayer-funded home loans available to residents living in the country illegally.
“Once again, California has chosen to prioritize illegal immigration and fiscal irresponsibility over the needs of its citizens, all while facing a $60 billion deficit that will ultimately be passed onto taxpayers,” San Diego County Supervisor Jim Desmond said.

There must be some method by which that state can be expelled from the Union for crimes against the Constitution.

Looks like time for a "dis-like" button to get added.
We've discussed that, but with other sites they've said it gets crazy being used.
We can discuss it some more though.

This would be the result if the Dems get their way on the "tax cuts given to Billionaires" that they want to let expire. The "average" taxpayer across the country would pay almost $3000 more a year in taxes.
Where taxes would rise the most if Trump's tax cuts expire
These cuts are due to expire at the end of 2025, and most Americans will see their tax bill jump as a result.
According to Tax Foundation, taxpayers in Massachusetts will see the biggest rise in their bill in 2026 if the cuts expire and business taxes increase as scheduled - with an average hike of $4,682 a year.
Those living in Washington will see their bill go up an average of $4,429, while an increase of $4,312 will be the norm for taxpayers in Wyoming.
In Washington DC, the average taxpayer will have to fork out $3,746 more a year if the legislation expires as planned.
Across the country, the average taxpayer would see a $2,853 increase if the tax provisions expire all at once, according to the think tank.
The Tax Foundation also calculated the typical change in taxes paid per taxpayer across each congressional district in the US.
It found, for example, the congressional district covering the San Francisco area would see an average tax hike of $16,127 per taxpayer - which is the highest in the US.

The new August jobs report shows employment numbers of U.S.-born workers and foreign-born workers going on two very different trajectories.
Data released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, an arm of the Department of Labor:
As of August of this year, there are 129,712,000 native-born workers compared to 131,031,000 in August 2023, meaning a plummeting reduction of 1,319,000 jobs.
In comparison, there were 31,636,000 foreign-born workers in the U.S. as of last month, compared to 30,396,000 in August 2023, a surge of 1,240,000 jobs.
The figures do not differentiate between foreign-born workers who entered the country with authorization, i.e. Green Card holders and those with working visas, and those who entered without prior authorization.
