@hondo:
So, I might mention that the Democrat tactics are right out of the Communist playbook.
First keep the opponent off the ballot. That didn't work so__
Put the opponent in jail. That didn't work so --
Kill the opponent. That didn't work either …
@Crash- Sir: Speaking as an older average "Joe" I take extreme exception to your slanderous and unwarranted remarks. :(
OJ, then you clearly misundertook me. My remarks were pointing to the Orange Kool-Aid Winos. No logic, no learning, no Critical T…

Well, Part "A" has already been accomplished, and Part "B" is underway.
We will have to ORGANIZE and MOBILIZE in order to resist the onslaught. I recall the hippie days. The resistance to the Establishment was huge. Sometimes organized, as in protes…
Sure, I could.... But that's the view I prefer. M* is always slow and late, anyhow. I like to go here for (very often) real-time quotes on stocks or ETFs through the day:

We are living in the time of Nero...There is no sense in understating the depth of the disaster. This is a crisis like no other in our lifetimes. The government of the United States has been delivered into the hands of a gangster...
So give him some time
@hondo
Yes, he's transparent. I am fixed upon the news. I think we can admit some level of decline with Joe. I certainly did not like all of Joe's policies. I find almost all of Trump's policies distasteful. He doesn't hide any…
Waiting and hoping re: my one foreign holding. BLX, an international business exchange bank based in .... PANAMA. Oy. Still in the black, there. So much political blustering re: the canal. Indeed, there may be better buying opportunities... Mr. Mark…
The Oath Keepers and Proud Boys are now his foot soldiers forever. Wouldn't surprise me if they became a thug unit comparable to the Brownshirts, a la Hitler.
My thought, too.
...And there are going to be a great many victims, once the pogroms begin in earnest.
And here it comes:

Motherlover. Lying Orange Lump. But... Is anyone surprised? It's all double-speak, bait and switch. Smoke, mirrors and... Oh, yeah. Another really BIG lie we'll get people convinced is true. Just repeat it enough times, they'll fall for it. Too many…
Can't argue with hiring the best people for the job, rather than maintaining quotas or "affirmative action." I don't care if you come from Pluto and your skin is plaid, if you're the best one for the job. And of course, it's often NOT the case that …
Good selection there, @hank. The bishop yesterday spoke straight at him. Good. I don't need all the woke stuff, myself; but she had the moxie to say what most preachers steer clear of. As for illegal criminals, I have zero sympathy. Illegals who cam…
Thank you, David. Yes, I've offered some bucks toward fire relief via my favored outfit. My son is fine, but still evacuated from his rented room in Altadena. He'll be an itinerant beggar for while, with this friend and that friend. Not sure how soo…
Surely, this has already been mentioned: with fewer, if any, rate cuts to come, ostensibly it makes sense to hold paper that matures further out. My junk carries a rolling maturity of less than 3 years. My "mainstream" I.G. WCPNX holds stuff up to 5…
A more haunting (?) way to say it is attributed to uncle joey goebbels. Say the lie often enough, they'll eventually believe it. The environment is going to get very dark, coming up. Don't let go of Truth along the way.
Rule of Law and ethical behavior requires those involved being able to look past self-interest. That's just gone. Joe was singing Bernie's song. Correct. But way too late. Recall the campaign lead-up to the 2020 election? Bernie was in a pretty good…
I sold XLE (from trading account) on Friday in anticipation of today’s order. Oil services investment may be better instead. I also changed portfolio on the margin for drop in yields and thus dollar, though this is a tougher call for me. It is…
Isn't Saturday Night Live already doing that?
Yes, but the deplorables do not tune in.

Putin is wanting to restore the former Soviet "greatness." By the same token, Trump is literally attempting to regurgitate Manifest Destiny, a polity modele…
@bee. ...Or you can go to this link and scroll down to "company reports."

AMEN to all of that. Still, it's barely a drop in the bucket That's how gargantuan this Economy has become. Oversight can decide to pick out only several egregious cases and deal with them. Federal agencies are horribly under-funded. The Repugnant m…
@hank. A lot classier than his past Inauguration dance-song with his wife at the various balls: "I Did It My Way." And a lot of us will sing the blues on 20th January. Yup. A lot of us will be grieving the loss of moral decency, which obviously mat…
