That is Pepper, my cocker waiting for the mailman.
@yogibearbull Maybe they will reorganize the TSP-G fund into the TSP-Cryto fund. During his last term Trump said something about getting rid of or changing the G-fund.
Media this morning is saying that the Supreme Court would probably be satisified if Congress simply delegated their tariff power to the President. Since this lies in my sphere of ignorance, I don't know, but the talking heads, at least, are saying i…
Hey @anna, it gets better/worse... it's not just crypto they're launching:
"In February, Trump Media applied to trademark six investment products that track bitcoin and the U.S. manufacturing and energy sectors. The trademarks include Truth.Fi Bitc…
@rforno You made me look and what I found de-bagged my eyes, de-crepyed my skin, de-greyed my hair, and financed my eternity while making me want to live forever. I want to go to TruthFiDJT-ven when I die and dance in the tulips and memes.
About Tru…
The professional class, those with marketable skills, of America might move to another country so their children have opportunity for a better future. Hopefully, for those who can't, some of the religious public schools will allow training in all ar…
Just a natural spinoff of his Casino business, albeit without even the fun night out aspects, but, apparently, it favors the house even better than his gambling business and, definitely, favors his pocket change better.
I do wonder: If he were to s…
I checked this before my May check and it still gave the same deposit date. Now it gives June's deposit date and there is no change. For some unknown reason, I get mine on the 3rd but have never found that I fit the categories given to get it on thi…
I went and played at your link. The second thing I tried was just a portfolio generated from putting in "supply chain". The most interesting thing that seemed to emerge was that extreme dips in the S&P tended to be preceeded by dips in the AI ge…
The types of security breaches that have arisen make it seem that there is an ongoing attempt to sabotage the security of the United States in a way that fear expressed by citizens might lead to an excuse for a decrease in ordinary, non-security rel…
I have been wondering a couple of things. What would the markets do if the interim tariff levels for both countries was set at zero? What if the period were 180 days at current agreed levels?
Maybe it is just part of replacing dark state civil servants with right thought civil servants. It has already been established that actual qualifications for and experience in the subject matter don't matter. Subject matter experts are, afterall, w…
I am beginning to remind myself of the average American. I don't like "American Big-Money way !" but I do love, so much, my Apple Watch 10 and don't know how I ever lived without it. Yep, just ole me, the dirty American.
Well, he is leaving Congress out of the loop and, now, is threatening, ignoring or arresting members of the Court, so combined with also ignoring the Constitution, what is a citizen suppose to think?
I wouldn't think him important enough to attract a few seconds to sign a pardon so I guess it depends on whether he has friends that can submit executive pardons in the stack of executive orders signed, but probably unread, every day.
Peter Navarro is 75 years old. Maybe his day in the light of genius is fading and and his day in the cognitive scaffolding of his brain is emerging in an inflexible, narrow, misguided caricature of his former, more broader, genius.
Well, I guess people can just boil add disinfectant (bleach?) to their milk until the evaluation of alternative approaches (WTH does that mean?) kicks in next year.
This rhymes and has me scratching my head.
It was a mistake but we stand by it and will keep the Harvard money.
It was a mistake but we stand by it and can't bring him back and will pay El Salvadore to keep him.
Oh, now that I put it that, it sudde…
What's not to expect. The entire government web info structure will become just a political or social attack on enemies of the serial_killer/felonious_fuhrer.
@fred495 And I woulda have thought the answer would be: "don't know 'til I see the brown of their noses". Oh, I see, that's the new definition of instinctive in the new and great again Webster's.
Some great, recent stuff from Katie Stockton.
Left this old lady with the feeling that I may be too old to even hope to see a leveling off, much less a recovery, during my dwindling lifetime.
Something is not right. With the way I visualize money flows, exemption is paramount to subsidize. Since some companies have lower taxes (exemption from tariffs) and incentives to keep their manufacturing outside the US (exemption from tariff on par…
If I pay the tariff, can I still buy whatever book I want from another country or will I be having contraband shipped?
double OT:
How do tariffs work on Internet services? Can I link to a Canadian website or will websites that have not paid tariffs…
@Old_Joe "The Social Security anti-fraud team has worked around the clock in person to improve technological capabilities and they are now able to identify fraud on claims filed over the telephone."
OK, my computer guru, Does that mean robots will m…
Difficult to compute how Bullish even garnered a blip much less 28.5%. Where do those folks see the sunshine?
Tomorrow, tomorrow
I love ya tomorrow
