Not just pathetic; it’s also incredibly bigoted. Advertise as family bonding a job that often – most of the time? – is about ripping families apart… jfc

I’m not surprised in the slightest by such hypocrisy but fuckin-a, I find it just as galling as ever

I consider it a bellwether for reactionaries. So if South Park is getting explicit in its criticism of Trump, it’s a good general cultural sign against Trump and MAGA

“I thought the parody was just in bad form and certainly, certainly bad timing,” Homan said on Cuomo.

Boo-fucking-hoo you ghoul

The actual title of this article is: Trump’s mental decline is undeniable — so what now?

Your editorialised headline, @cm0002@lemmy.world, is much less engaging. If you want to give a different headline than the actual one, maybe make it: Dementia: The spirit of Biden lives on at the White House. As it stands, your title makes it seem like the article is going to be about some plucky Biden term bureaucrats are putting up the “good fight”, which I’m not sure anybody would actually believe. I almost didn’t click on your post because I found it a stupid premise. Imagine my surprise when it was actually about the clear signs of dementia Trump is putting out.

I can’t stand this kind of comment. You’re mad that people don’t see things as your do but then also complain that it wouldn’t matter anyway.

If you think it doesn’t matter, shut up and let the people trying keep on keeping on. It definitely won’t change by spreading your shitty attitude

You remove it from their paychecks under what ###?

Their individual taxpayer identification number, or ITIN. If you had read the full reply I gave you above, you’d see this:

If you are a US citizen, you can use your Social Security number (SSN) to file your income taxes. Immigrants who do not have a valid visa or other proof of legal status are not eligible for an SSN. Instead, these workers can apply through the IRS for an individual taxpayer identification number, or ITIN, to file their taxes. As of January 2021, there were an estimated 5.4 million active ITINs.

Don’t be intentionally stupid. It’s done via the exact same mechanism that your taxes get paid when you get your paycheck. Payroll systems are automated; virtually no employer handles payroll themselves, just like virtually no website handles credit card transactions themselves.

This is a very google-able question. From the Tax Policy Center:

Yes, Undocumented Immigrants Pay Taxes—and Receive Few Tax Benefits

An estimated 11 million immigrants live in the US without authorization. Contrary to some claims, they pay a considerable amount in taxes. Some estimates suggest undocumented immigrants paid nearly $100 billion in federal, state, and local taxes in 2022.

Like all US citizens, undocumented immigrants must pay taxes

Immigrants of any legal status are required to pay the same taxes as US citizens. Most have income and payroll taxes deducted from their wages. If they purchase a home, or any goods and services, they pay state and local property taxes or sales taxes like others in their community.

US citizens and undocumented immigrants interact differently with the federal tax system in the forms of identification they use to file their taxes each year.

Thought that was a headline from The Onion. I’ve eaten the onion too many times lately, but this is the first Not The Onion moment I’ve had in awhile
