Trump Voters FREAK OUT After Realizing They Aren’t Getting Tax Cuts - The Ring of Fire Network 

Trump Voters FREAK OUT After Realizing They Aren’t Getting Tax Cuts - The Ring of Fire Network  | Operation Deimos | Scoop.it

Trump voters have taken to Twitter to express their outrage over the fact that they aren’t getting those lofty tax cuts that the Republicans promised them.When the legislation was passed, middle class and working class Americans were told that their taxes would go down starting in 2019, but so far...

The Swarm's insight:

It was only a matter of time until the vampire Republicans in the GOP leadership incurred the ire of their taxpaying, working class and middle-class constituents because nobody likes getting double-crossed. Nobody.

The Abyss of Behemoth - Occupy Hades

The Abyss of Behemoth - Occupy Hades | Operation Deimos | Scoop.it

No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. Luke 16:13 (KJV)

 

You shall not steal; you shall not deal falsely; you shall not lie to one another. Leviticus 19:11 (ESV) 

 

Wealth is treacherous, and the arrogant are never at rest. They open their mouths as wide as the grave, and like death, they are never satisfied. In their greed they have gathered up many nations and swallowed many peoples. Habakkuk 2:5 (NLT)
