Listen up, MAGA f*ktards! You thought you were getting a sweet deal, but guess what? A Trump-appointed judge just blocked overtime pay for 4 million workers nationwide. That’s right, Judge Sean Jordan struck down a Department of Labor rule that would have expanded overtime eligibility to millions of salaried workers across the entire United States.
Here are the cold, hard facts:
– The blocked rule would have raised the salary threshold from $35,568 to $43,888 by July 2024, and further increased it to $58,656 by January 2025.
– Thanks to this ruling, the threshold reverts back to $35,568, which was set under the Trump administration in 2019.
And don’t think for a second that you’re off the hook for paying taxes on your tips. That’s not happening anytime soon, suckers!
You bent over and grabbed your ankles for a fascist who sold out democracy for his own gains, and for what? Some crumbs that never even made it to your table. You supported his bullshit, and now you’re feeling the burn of his betrayal. So, keep enjoying those MAGA hats and rallies while the rest of us are fighting to undo the damage you helped cause.
Wake up and smell the betrayal, MAGA morons! You sold out democracy for fucking crumbs, and now you’re getting exactly what you deserve: jack shit.
