US US Politics General - Discussion of President Biden and other politicians

It means I get a hell of a standard deduction on my taxes.

Don't marry a stupid bitch and don't be a lazy asshole to your wife. The first one is a little harder than the second, but it is doable.

Just be alpha, bro, if you have enough alpha male energy you can totally drown out the society-spanning brainwashing apparatus designed over many decades with the express purpose of breaking apart family units through the application of persuasive tactics spanning the entire continuum of human emotional responses. If you're cool enough your wife won't notice any of the countless messages being fed to her through her phone, TV and social circle that have been precision-engineered by the most devious Jewish psychologists to sabotage her ability to pair-bond.

 

[Xarpho's Return]

So apparently the last month of the election cycle is going to have King Nigger and the Cheneys doing the rallying for Kamala, this video is from two days ago though. I don't know what to think to be honest. I don't think people care that much about someone who has already had multiple terms. I can't recall if Obongo had to do rallies for Biden, if they did any at all.

The 2020 campaign was very low-energy on Biden's part and I think someone pointed out that about this time a lot of resources were redirected to starting to farm the ballots. Meanwhile, I got quoted on the DJT thread (who says KF is right-wing) mocking the concept of more pro-Trump signs in Florida. I don't know why the numbers are thinner there.

The problem is I can't separate signal from noise, and with the fact that a bunch of Biden ballots materialized from nowhere which was never caught and became a "disproved" conspiracy theory in the eyes of the left isn't exactly instilling me with confidence. I guess since Kamala is actually campaigning there's less harvesting going on?

Are those who still listen to Howard Stern already going to vote for Harris? It's not like she is going on SiriusXM Patriot.

He got renewed by SiriusXM with a generous sum but I don't anyone listens anymore, definitely on the right wing. He takes vacations a lot and is only on three days a week. Other than that, subscriptions for SiriusXM have been plummeting (and Stern has famously refused to make any alternate channels outside of a "best of" channel (2.3M subscribers, which is pretty low for a channel of that caliber), his show is unlistenable according to former fans, anyone under 30 has correctly clocked him as being irrelevant, and so on.

I can't even stand to look at this loser anymore much, but jeezus christ. Just charge your $350 per graph and go away finally.

Let them have the artists. Trump has the people.

David Pakman is somehow a bigger faggot than destiny. I don’t know how it’s possible, but it is.

This is why he is known as "10-time Bathhouse Bukake World Champion David Pakman" on the Hard Bastard news streams.

Speaking of which, HB prestream just started.

Guess he didn't get the memo about the "weird" thing being retired.

It'll never not be amusing that the pro-tranny, pro-abortion, pro-foreigner corner of politics has the nerve to call anyone 'weird' as an insult.

Thank you.

Filing as head of household is more beneficial in terms of the standard deduction and tax brackets, but you cannot do it unless you meet all the conditions. You have to be unmarried, you have to prove that you shoulder more than 50% of household expenses (specifically rent/mortgage, taxes, utilities, home insurance, and groceries - nothing else counts), and you have to prove that your dependent lives with you more than 50% of the time in a taxable year.

Filing jointly as a married couple is easier and more straightforward.

So a trivial amount of coordination with someone you cohabit with? "Yeah the mortgage/rent and utilities come out my banking account" is usually all it takes for 2 people with a kid to sort that out.

Counterpoint: he may like her as his idiot but he might find her ultimately retarded. I think even for Obama’s puppetry standards she’s too stupid.

This is obvious to me because of how long Obama took to endorse Kamala, only to end up doing so in a somewhat lowkey manner. They’re was many speculation about it and rumors behind the scenes and even Gehenna mentioned that Obama doesn’t like her.

His speech (alongside Big Mike’s) during the DNC felt so forced I find it hard to believe he’s actually enthusiastic. Also, Obama is not the guy I would consider for complementing a woman given that he’s married to a hideous nigger.

Obama is a piece of shit who thinks high of himself. He sees everyone below him. Obama has said nice things about Biden too, but that doesn’t mean he likes him.

I still remember when Trump baited him into endorsing her via a truth post.

I mean... you can try this, but you're absolutely fucked if the IRS audits you.

Gold Star lipstick lesbian here to report - it seems this season, butch lesbian hairstyles (i.e. short layered bob haircuts) are "in". Here's an article from a few days ago promoting said haircut.

So, that cut made a comeback.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

The DJT thread is a hug-box for TDS posters.

The DJT thread is a hug-box for TDS posters.

It's a tiny piece of Reddit inside our very own forum. I don't even bother to enter that thread for fear of catching their stupid.

KF is "right-wing" because it is one of the last safe havens for righties to shitpost and discuss stuff without being culled over dubious claims of Nazi-fascist ties.

 

[LeChampion1992]

That's just sad

In their CBS assisted worldwide reality maga are these irredeemable white supremacist bigots who at best ate stupid inbred hicks and at worst evil people who want to oppress brown, queer people, and women.
The new cope is that if not for those pesky Russians and their evil propaganda ie giving right wing people a platform from the US they're doing more damage to the liberal world view.

The ultimate cope.

Remember these people do exist, go to any gentrified area of a city ie where the rich liberal hipsters live and these people will rage at how Trump or Republicans or Christianity is still the problem while they shame you for driving an older diesel truck.

This is me legit asking not arguing.

If you are paying a mortgage your home insurance, taxes, are all included on that payment for most people. Utilities are drafted from a bank account. So ample proof audit time.

The only category that is "iffy" is groceries. I mean groceries have gone pretty crazy lately. I can concede you might be higher if you got a good mortgage payment from 10+ years ago and utilities in your area. But for most people i would say housing + utilities beats out their grocery bill.

Where IRS will drop the hammer on HoH is if 2 people claim it for the same address, but otherwise the Irs knows who lives in the house, what each of them are claiming and if their bullshit lines up or not.

This is in comparision to your "set up a trust" advice. Thats way more complicated than "make sure the strong majority of the bills are in one persons name and they are paying for them out of their bank account".

It just seems to me that the current situation is that Kamela just doesn't have the political capital or the groundswell support to actually pull off major shenaninagns like that. The whole thing really requires both top down obfuscation and collaboration, and bottom up hands on fucking with votes from volunteers. If you're missing a sufficient quantity of either, you end up unable to cover up enough ground game fuckery, or you don't have enough ground game fuckery to achieve anything.

On the bottom up side, Kamela is not anything anyone wanted, and we're four years off from the peak of antitrump - he's old news to the vast majority, and you really do need to be hitting the vast majority as getting people who'll fuck with the game to do so is a big old numbers play. I simply doubt there are enough true believers who either love here or loathe trump enough who are willing to stick their necks out to fuck with things this time. There will still be people who play inside the rules and the grey areas, but I don't expect to see a 3am spike like we saw before, just padded anemic numbers.

On the top down side, the political apparatus is looking really, really weird. Ever since Biden dropped out, they seem really listless - Kamela might be the recovery bit from part of the puppeteer group, but it really looks like the rest has fucked off to focus on their own foundations and goals, and don't see the presidency and the control in such as critical to those means. The media and business cabals won't mind a Trump Presidency, the former gets his ratings boosts and the latter seem to be going towards neutrality with conservatives and wouldn't object to a business friendly administration either. The deep state seems to be sort of paralyzed, The intelligence agencies really don't seem to have a collective goal or direction, the judicial capture is breaking down, and the fiscal and administrative agencies seem to be struggling with all their duties under profoundly unqualified leadership. They're all focusing on their own wounds and plans, and seemingly none of that requires major central control and coordination to advance - they musta fallen pretty hard.

The actual party apparatus seems to be mostly behind her, but their own assets seem incompetent. They have completely lost the political plot, they don't have a platform or a plan, they have some funds but they don't seem to know how they want to mobilize them, and every time they open their mouths publicly it hurts them. They're so detached from it all that they left the steering wheel in the other room.

And I have to say, I was not expecting the October surprise to be "The Federal government literally leaves people to die after a major disaster while saying 'We're too broke to help you', while also publicly spending hundreds of millions on foreign countries". Seriously, if you'd told me they'd let that happen right before an election, I'd have laughed at you for being way too optimistic about trumps chances. What a wild fucking time we live in.

Dems embracing a Cheney endorsement and using her to campaign is almost more funny than Killary's campaign, almost.

Nothing will ever top Hillary going to war against a cartoon frog in the middle of an election for me.

And I don’t want to hear another fucking word from them about Trump being a dumbass. I wish the heart attack killed Cheney. And no not in Minecraft.

 

[The Last Stand]

the classic "soulless vs soul" comparison
it's pretty funny though seeing the "MENTALL ILLNESS | MENTAL ILLNESS | MENTAL ILLNESS | SHE/HER" crowd trying to dunk on Elon for being an aspie tho

Like they care about that, if you have the wrong opinion, all bets are off.

My general advice is to never try to pull one over on the IRS. If you've thought of it, then a thousand other people have tried it.

The IRS will absolutely notice two people claiming head of household at the same address. They are used to people trying these kind of schemes to save money. You must be separated to claim head of household, not just unmarried - I guess I didn't mention that in my other post.

Trusts are a pain in the ass, especially irrevocable trusts, but they are very useful for protecting assets you intend to pass onto your beneficiary. If you do it right and well in advance of a potential divorce, an irrevocable trust is pretty much divorce-proof. Not even a court of rainbow-haired hamplanets presided over by the putrified zombie corpse of Andrea Dworkin can touch it.
