Bi-weekly Bullshit 7/19/17: Philly Latinos, How to be Alt-Right, Trump Tax, McCain Brain Cancer7/20/2017 Good Evening, Patriots! Coffeewithcomment, here - and welcome to the first part of this week's Bi-weekly Bullshit - your source for performance analysis, sarcasm, aaaand ridicule of the fake news. Today July 19th, 2017. Speaking of the fake news, Lionel nation is declaring it the "Dead News"- meaning it's completely irrelevant at this point. I'd like to offer a little pushback on that- because as you'll see with one of our stories about the Philly Latino community, people are still paying attention to the drivel and scare tactics. But we'll get into that in a moment. Here are today's topics: Latinos in Philly How to be Alt-Right Trump Tax Plan McCain Brain Cancer Latinos in Philly Philly.com reports on the general fear and anxiety among Latinos in Philadelphia in an article titled "So many immigrants fear Trump that Comcast's Telemundo is running a phone bank". Granted, part of this problem could be related to a ... let's just say "lapse" ... of education when it comes to learning English, because the information is available on Trump's immigration stances. Specifically, he wants to: - Deport ALL Illegal Immigrants - Detain all illegal immigrants until they are deported - End Birthright citizenship So... if you're here legally, there shouldn't be any questions or fear or any of that. In Philly, most of the Latinos are actually from Puerto Rico- I know I've touched on that before, but since they are from Puerto Rico, and are thus US citizens, they have no reason to freak out. Still, it's interesting that Comcast's local Spanish station Telemundo62 is hosting these phone banks, but I'm curious to know what they are actually telling people. The conversations aren't televised, for obvious reasons... so this will require some investigation. To that end, I did some digging on Latino non-profits in Philly, and came up with Congreso. This is one of several Philly-based Latino organizations, and Congreso seems to be focused on providing education as a means of lifting these peoples out of poverty. Not a bad goal. Also the CEO is apparently a Trump supporter and I've reached out to her for comment on this - article and to get a better insight on the Latino demographic in Philly. She's also a Trump supporter, so there's that. The only real insight we have into what the lawyers running the telephone bank are saying is the following section of the article, quote: "In the past, immigrants called the Telemundo62 consumer line mostly about bills. Now, they often ask about federal crackdowns, what papers to carry, or how to help a family member." End Quote I don't know if a lawyer performing free services in this way can ask if they are here legally or not, so I'm really not sure where to go from here short of calling the line and finding out. If you're a local Latino who wants to help get to the bottom of this with me, my contact information is linked below. How to be Alt-Right Here's a short clip detailing all you need to know about being alt-right: [[Satire with terrible gym etiquette and milk drinking]] Hah hah... obviously that's satire. But I realized that I don't even know what the hell Alt-Right is anymore. Is it white nationalism? Is it classical liberalism? I've been labelled as "Alt-right" but I have no idea what it is other than Hillary Clinton called me that. Or half of me. Who the hell knows with that old bat? I just want freedom and I'm averse to killing people for it. Not averse to getting punched or pepper-sprayed for it, however. B T DUBS, Fuck you Antifa. Comment below and explain to me what Alt-Right really is. Trump Tax Plan Congress is giving up on the fight to replace Obamacare because no one can work together. And it's good in a way, anyway, since the GOP wasn't able to come up with anything good anyway. Obamacare will fail under the weight of its own bullshit eventually, so since we couldn't put anything better in place, that's what we're left with. I wouldn't care at all what happens with the Affordable Care Act except it's been almost as bad as NAFTA in the way it kills jobs and opportunities. Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. This shit's not free- it's costs jobs and it costs opportunity. The current tax proposal, as reported by The Hill, is as follows, quote: The tax plan the Trump administration unveiled in April proposes individual tax brackets of 35 percent, 25 percent and 10 percent. It also proposes a rate of 15 percent for both corporations and small businesses known as “pass through” whose income is taxed through the individual tax code on their owners’ returns. End Quote. One thing to note is that the actual bracket limits haven't been set or discussed in current proposals in Congress. However we might assume the bracket limits are along the lines of what was disclosed in his campaign proposals. The first bracket is 10% for $0-$38,600; 25% for 38,601 - 115,900; and 35 percent for 115,901 and beyond. I'm assuming this is only for filing as single, but if it includes, say, married filing jointly, you can see the difference this could make by comparing it against the current brackets. Anyway, in my job search, I'm looking to make between 45k and 60k a year; so the limits of these brackets are of particular interest to myself and I'm sure many other 30-somethings as well. I still think taxation is theft but the information needs to be out there regardless. McCain Brain Cancer Well, we knew SOMETHING was wrong with him - you may have noticed lately his slurring or just making NO SENSE AT ALL when talking. And while you may take issues with the way McCain has repeatedly fucked you, your children, and the nation at large - it doesn't mean you go around tweeting he should die. I mean, the way you hear Washington Post tell it, you'd think Senator Diana Orrock was hoping he'd die from the brain tumor. This is what happens when you have tabloid media that strives to have a monopoly on increasingly retarded bullshit to act all offended over. Quote: "Diana Orrock, a national committeewoman for the Nevada GOP, shared a story headlined “Please Just F---ing Die Already.” In retweeting the piece, which was published on Medium, Orrock wrote “Amen.” Several hours after posting the now-deleted tweet, Orrock apologized to McCain and to the Nevada and national GOP, calling the ailing senator “an American hero” — and her own post “disrespectful.” End quote Seriously, this is what media has become. A whiny bitchfest that feeds anger and unrest to the unwashed "normies". I'd agree it's tasteless to tweet this kind of thing out, but it's also twitter... why are the so-called Bastions of Journalistic Integrity trawling Twitter for "news"? If they'd stick to factual reporting they could save themselves... but they can't and they won't because they're retarded. Anyway, McCain had a glioblastoma, which is a cancer that affects astrocytes; a type of glial cell that provides structure and nutrition in the brain. Glial cells are actually quite a fascinating subject of interest, because it's only recently that neuroscientists have discovered they also play a role in the transmission of information- although likely not to the extent of the neuron. Fun fact: The abundance of glial cells coating neural axons is what gives "white matter" its name. Fun Fact number two: because of the extensive branching of astrocytes, a cancerous glioblastoma is extremely difficult to remove completely. So McCain's probably not out of the woods yet.
