The chat agent wondered if the 2 missing pennies were in any way connected to the (literally) 2 cents sitting in wifey's cash section of her IRA. But I told him that I just never did anything with that account. So, the a…
Whack-a-mole. Shit. Nevertheless, the tariffs were instituted under an Emergency Declaration where no real emergency exists. It could be correctly asserted that is where the coup d'etat from within the government began. The "emergency" was manufactu…
I hope to Gawd SCOTUS doesn't lie down for this. The country and the world need these Orange suck-tariffs to be REVERSED. Bessent was crying on tv about what a mess it would be to attempt to correctly refund the companies. Of course, you and I get..…
FD has responded with nothing substantive to rebut much of anything in here for a very long time. Quoting Scott Galloway, in a back-and-forth between himself and Kevin O'Leary: "I find that people who use the term derangement directed at me, do so b…

The lovely and wonderful and splendid and beautiful Dem. Establishment won't dare to nominate anyone with a REAL, progressive vision for positive change. Jefferies, Schumer and the other dinosaurs are still in control. I'd love to see AOC in the WH …
...Assuming we do have "free and fair" elections? The Orange Criminal disruptor has no intention of leaving, it's very clear. And the Red States are creating new Congressional districts by just pulling them out from where the sun don't shine. ICE an…
... I was also just reminded via a recording of the play, about that umpire's blown pitch-call. Ball, then strike. The runner was strolling to 1st base. It turned into a double play for the Dodgers. That was a major bunch of junk. That umpire needs …
A service provider I use sent me a bunch of stuff to fill out recently, which they already had, and I knew it. I filled out SOME of the stuff; other items they were asking for got a "you don't need to know that" reply from me.
