On the other side of the question I asked @Mik and @jon-nyc, I also wonder how that income get classified by the recipients.
Getting paid for no service rendered pretty much means these are not "earned income." These are also not investment income. Not "royalty". Not winnings from gambling. Maybe they count as "gifts," so the recipients are not subjected to any tax on them. Anyone think the IRS will have a problem with the recipients classifying these as "gifts" and not pay tax on any of it?

I still pay my cleaning lady 140/wk. and she hasn’t come since early March. I even gave her her usual Xmas bonus of an extra 140.
Same question as I asked @Mik, what payment method do you use to pay for this sort of "in person" service when you do not actually get to meet this service provide in-person anymore?
We use Venmo, Ax.

Thanks, man. I've seen you and @89th and @jon-nyc all recently mentioning that you use Venmo. So I'll go read up on Venmo a bit and brush up on what mobile app based payment systems are like these days.

Now Trump can focus like a laser on his top priority, inciting a white nationalist riot in Washington on January 6.

What about all the black and Latino folks who support him...... are they "white nationalists" too?

For sure the white nationalist thing is overwrought. I should probably have edited it. But yeah, that’s now his focus. 1/6 and pardoning his swamp creature family and friends.

You seem to be confused as to just who the swamp creatures actually are.

In what possible world is Paul Manafort not a swamp creature?
I am 100% down for reopening all aspects of the Russia investigation. Would like to know what Manafort knew in trade for a much more complete disclosure of all FBI and other activities. Let’s do it and also figure out everyone’s dealings in Ukraine especially!

Do we even need to? The Meuller report as is would support an obstruction indictment of Trump on 1/21, if the DOJ so chooses. Biden is not thinking that way however.
But what does that have to do with Manafort? Most of his crimes predated the campaign.

Oh so they went after him for those crimes. LOL

I’ll remind you he was already under investigation when Trump descended the infamous escalator in 2015.

Soon enough the Russia Investigation won’t even be a thing I suppose. I always thought for Mueller if only/they could get Manafort to crack the floodgates would have opened. But oh no according to you his other crimes were the thing.

You didn't say Paul Manafort, you said his family and friends ALL. You painted not just his entire administration as well as his entire family with the same brush, now you want to claim you were only referring to Manafort.

In the same world where Biden didn’t win the election

Biden DIDNT win the election. I'm sorry you're not very good at math, but that's not my problem.

Let's see... typical voter turnout is like 40, 45%? What was it in 2020... 115%? 125%?.......
