He adjusted the standard deduction way up so that many people no longer needed to itemize because the standard deduction route resulted in lower tax, although my tax went up slightly, it was negligible.

I actually did that. Trump changed the tax code in his first term so that the deduction was no longer helpful. Still, I think it’s better to pay it off and eliminate debt. Interest rates for CDs had dropped to like close to 1%. They’re much better now of course. You have a good argument. Those high monthly mortgage payments suck though.

Dallas Mavericks are playing the Memphis Grizzlies tonight. Winner gets into the playoffs. Memphis leads 108 - 91 with 7 minutes left in the 4th. Anthony Davis went to the bench grabbing the back of his right upper calf. The announcer said they've seen him grab his left knee, he's been dealing with a groin injury this game, and low back. AD has 38 points and 9 rebounds so far so he is still playing at an elite level.

https://abcnews.go.com/US/wisconsin-teen-allegedly-killed-parents-extremist-plot-assassinate/story?id=120750496 Wisconsin teen allegedly killed parents in extremist plot to assassinate Trump, FBI says Nikita Casap, 17, is accused of killing his mother and stepfather. A Wisconsin teen allegedly killed his parents to "obtain the financial means and autonomy necessary" to kill President Donald Trump and overthrow the U.S. government, federal authorities said in court documents. Nikita Casap, 17, was arrested in March and charged with two counts of first-degree murder and two counts of hiding a corpse, according to Waukesha County authorities. Other charges include theft of property over $10,000 and misappropriating ID to obtain money. Court documents show investigators are pursing federal charges including conspiracy, presidential assassination and use of weapons of mass destruction. The teen's stepfather, Donald Mayer, 51, and mother, Tatiana Casap, 35, were both found dead inside their home by the Waukesha County Sheriff's Department on March 1, according to a press release from the department. The sheriff's department issued a search warrant and say they found material on the teen's phone related to "The Order of Nine Angles," which is "a network of individuals holding new-Nazi racially motivated extremist views," according to investigators. The Federal Bureau of Investigation reviewed documents allegedly written by the teen, which calls for the assassination of Trump and the start of a revolution to "save the white race," according to federal court documents. The alleged writings shows images of Adolf Hitler with the following text: "HAIL HITLER HAIL THE WHITE RACE HAIL VICTORY," according to court documents. "He was in touch with other parties about his plan to kill the President and overthrow the government of the Unites States. And he paid for, at least in part, a drone and explosives to be used as a weapon of mass destruction to commit an attack," investigators said in the federal affidavit. "Other parties, with whom Casap was in contact, appear to have been aware of his plan and action and to have provided assistance to Casap in carrying them out," according to the affidavit. Casap was in court on April 9 for a preliminary hearing on his state charges. He has not yet offered a plea and remains in custody. His next court appearance is for an arraignment on May 7, according to the Waukesha County court docket.

Can extraction marks from a non-fired round on one cartridge be linked to an exact individual gun? edited: to correct term previously typed as bullet to cartridge.

The Chief of Police said during this trial while on the stand that the neighbor of the land adjacent to where the girls bodies were found had his gun, a Sig Sauer tested and it was excluded. The truth is the lab found it to be inconclusive. Which also means the lab results were lies saying the testing showed the defendant's gun was a match to the found unspent round because you can't have a match to one gun and then not be able to exclude a different gun. Also, the police use .40 caliber S&W rounds as well. Also, several video interviews of witnesses and/or suspects were misplaced or lost per the County Sheriff. Also, several letters and video tapes from a prisoner were lost who stated that Ron Logan confessed to the murders with details (who was never charged, has since died, and lied about an alibi and had his cousin lie for him to establish an alibi before the girls bodies were even found, on his property no less, for the time period of when the girls were abducted (2 pm - 3 pm on 2/13/2017). One signed statement does exist explaining the confession. When that became public knowledge, the prosecutor quickly put out a statement to the news stations in the area that the prisoner failed lie detector tests miserably. Ron Logan's cell phone was used near either were the girls were abducted and/or bodies found at the time they were abducted. There's video of a man walking and instructing the girls to go down the hill. His former girlfriend, before she knew the man in the video was the suspected killer said it was her ex-partner in the video and it was his voice in the recording made by one of the victims. Both of Ron Logan's last two girlfriends said he assaulted them, one being punched, the other hit across the head with a wrench. One said he threated to kill her. Both said they were afraid of him or afraid he would kill them.

What evidence? Where is it show that Abrego was here legally? He was an El Salvador citizen. This? - Though Abrego Garcia illegally immigrated to the U.S. in 2011 at the age of 16, he had lived and worked in the country legally since 2019, when an immigration judge granted him "withholding of removal" status, a rare alternative to asylum, over the threat to his life from gang violence.

Top Trump advisor Stephen Miller: "DOJ called me after that Supreme Court ruling and they said, this is amazing. We won this case nine zero. We are an excellent standing here. So this has been portrayed wrong for 72 hours in the media." "They said the most a court could ever compel you to do would be to facilitate return, which would basically mean if El Salvador voluntarily sends him back we wouldn't block him at the airport. We would put him back into ICE detention and then he would be deported either back to El Salvador or somewhere else." "In 2019, he was ordered deported. He is a final removal order from the United States. These are things that no one disputes. Where is he from? El Salvador. Where is he a resident and citizen of? El Salvador. Is he here illegally? Yes. Does he have a deportation order? Yes." "A DOJ lawyer who has since been relieved of duty, a saboteur, a Democrat, put into a filing incorrectly that this was a mistaken and removal. It was NOT! This was the right person sent to the right place." "Now some have said, well, but he had a thing called a 'withholding order.' A withholding order means you've been ordered deported, but an immigration judge is saying you cannot go back to a particular country. Here's the thing: if you are a member of a foreign terrorist organization, you cannot have a withholding order." "Since he's in MS-13, there is no withholding order. Furthermore, that gang he is accused of being persecuted by doesn't exist anymore in El Salvador! The 18th Street gang is GONE." "So you have an illegal alien from El Salvador. Bill, where are we supposed to send the illegal alien from El Salvador? To what country?" HOST: Are you convinced he is still a member of MS-13? That was your original charge. MILLER: "Yes. Do you stand by But here's the thing, Bill. Yes, but not only am I convinced of it, not only is El Salvador convinced of it. Bill, he's an illegal alien from El Salvador with a deportation order! So his only options in life, Bill, his only options in life are to be deported to El Salvador or to be deported to some other country. That's IT."

That's up to Trump to explain, not me. I didn't make that assertion and I'm not saying that.

War can be started by one country without being the invading country. Depends on how people decide which side to blame and their reasoning.

I like there are names attached to this so at least we know some of the people who are the enemies of the people.

What about the fact that when they tested the suspect's gun it left no marks when he ejected. They had to fire it to get marks to be made on the extraction of the casing. 3 marks. Everything I've read seems to indicate this is a class characteristic, not an individual characteristic so it would only point to the type of gun, not a specific gun. I find it odd that his gun doesn't make any ejector marks when cycled, but the round they found did. How could the suspect's gun leave marks on the round ejected but when tested (for cycling, not firing) it doesn't leave any marks? I think I remember that round was partway in the ground when it was found. I wish I could see high magnification photos of the marks and marks from the guns tested.
