Axios: Corporate Democrats Are Settling On 25% Corporate Tax Rate
Occidental Dissent - Apr 19th 2021 11:29am EDTThis is a joke. Axios: “The universe of Democratic senators concerned about raising the corporate tax rate to 28% is broader than Sen.

Axios: Corporate America Has Cut Off The GOP At Least For Now
Occidental Dissent - Apr 19th 2021 10:54am EDTI’m probably going to be called a Republican shill for noticing this.

Poll: “Mini-Trump” Andrew Yang Is Conquering New York City
Occidental Dissent - Apr 17th 2021 3:09pm EDTI’m still fond of Andrew Yang. The Yang Gang is the reason why we got three stimulus checks.

Joe Biden Retreats On Refugee Resettlement
Occidental Dissent - Apr 16th 2021 1:33pm EDTThis is a victory for the “far right,” boys. Joe is walking back his executive order on refugee resettlement.

Rising: Taxing The Rich Is Overwhelmingly Popular
Occidental Dissent - Apr 16th 2021 12:41pm EDTThe GOP doesn’t seem to realize this. Woke Capital is a big opportunity for them to dump a major albatross.
