Stephen A. Smith says he was warned by his estate planners to leave California every weekend because the government would TRACK his phone calls, then uses that data to collect MORE taxes.
He thought they were kidding. - The Vigilant Fox @VigilantFox
Then he got his tax returns.
Then he got his tax returns.
- They weren’t.
What’s happening here is the “jock tax” in effect, which is California’s way of collecting more money from entertainers and athletes based on days worked or spent in the state.
- And here’s the disturbing part.
California’s tax collectors pull cell phone records to show where you were when you took your calls so they can prove you were still hanging out in Cali so they can hit you with another taxable day...

Biden FBI cited SPLC in taking thousands of actions despite knowing its deep flaws * WorldNetDaily * by Tyler O'Neil, The Daily Signal:
The Justice Department's new report on the Richmond Catholic memo reveals that the FBI had cited the Southern Poverty Law Center more than 22,000 times, at times without any caveats, even though FBI policies would require any SPLC citation to note potential bias and contested credibility.
The Richmond office of the FBI published the notorious memo on Jan. 23, 2023, claiming that "racially-motivated violent extremists" were seeking to recruit "radical traditional Catholics." The memo didn't just cite the SPLC, it did so without any caveats about the SPLC's questionable credibility.

To hear the Enemedia talk, Europe is Greenland's savior and all involved are having a love fest. Think again.
Greenland's Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen just confirmed that he has no intention of reversing the island’s 1985 decision to leave the then-European Community. - Rod D. Martin
Following a two-day visit to Greenland by the European Commission president, Nielsen said membership is “not currently on the table.”
Why it matters:
Why it matters:
As I reported in depth last week, Danish human rights atrocities in Greenland are far worse than anyone thought (and that's coming from Danish reports!).
Greenland has long wanted independence but can't afford it.
And like Iceland, it does NOT see Brussels as its savior.
- The logical solution to all of this is a Compact of Free Association between an independent Greenland and the United States, similar to those with Palau, the Marshall Islands, and Micronesia.

- Negotiations are ongoing. This story is far from over.

We think we’re a top-tier rich nation, but on a per capita basis, we’re not even in the top 20. - Konstantin Kisin
