Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
Looks like "False Equivalence" are the key words today for DCP talking points.
LOL. "DCP."
The Repugnant Party are the ones morphing the country into a Soviet-like oligarchy, hollowing-out the middle-class. From another perspective, we are fast …

83% of those polled say the Prez must follow SCOTUS rulings.
...Only 83%???
Rule of Law? Three co-equal branches of g…
Hey Crash!!! +1. That’s too insightful to be lost in off topic land. Wonder what happened to Pete ‘s big talk about bring back the warrior and lethality? Our adversaries must be very happy this month.
Indeed.
Bought just a handful more of shares in ET midstream oil/gas (LP). The Q4 '24 Earnings Report disappointed the "experts." The stock price fell, two days in a row. Numbers look good, just not as good as those "in the know" figured they should be. My …
Waste, fraud and abuse is the DEFINITION of the Orange Babyshit's "Administration." Mainstream media outlets have been removed from gummint news briefings in favor of friendly, crazy-ass, Right-wing entertainers. That's downright Hitlerian. Trumpste…
@crash. Back in the day,,, and I mean way back,,, I used to say that the two parties were actually the right and left wings of the capitalist party. Nowadays ,,, to say the dems aren’t much better is really wrong. Because the repugnants are so ho…

It brings me into some serious despair that enough voters serious…
Beyond the Free Speech issue, to FORCE the use of the new, silly, stoopid designation is COMPELLED speech. How many fingers am I holding up, Winston?... Ah, but what if The Party says 2+2=5?
Motherloving Orange Disgrace. We are totally screwed.
Over on the Big Bang forum there is a cadre of folks who "... fail to grasp the controversy about Elon Musk" (their own words), have no concept of false equivalence, and insist Trump is honest because he is keeping his campaign promises. If you wan…
Agreed. We are already living through a coup. When uncle Adolf became Chancellor, he prohibited all but his own Party. I'm waiting for THAT shoe to drop. The Orange Fuck-head is deliberately doing illegal junk, just to see how much he can get away w…
Maybe there's hope for the world yet, @hondo.
I suppose I'm not the only one, but I'm having a crisis of conscience, still holding onto a Trump-voter-friend. ... In days gone by, the Parties had disagreements. But the Repugnant Party has become a t…
what is wrong with buyouts offers in principle? Private companies do it all the time. No one is required to accept them.
Take the offer or get terminated WITHOUT any severance? That's no deal. That's blackmail.
...a rising tide raises all boats.
Trickle down? Is that what you're selling? What a mountain of goat shit lies. Uncle Ronny Ray-guns foisted that on us, decades ago. It will never work. Been there, done that and bought the T-shirt.
Orange Kool-Aid Winos. Keep those damned FACTS away from me. I'm happy being brainwashed. I'm not impressed with the Dems, myself. But the Repugnant Party has become a spineless Trump-cult. He's just busy blowing things up. His whole Admin. is a cri…
I own no crypto, a la Charlie Munger. (R.I.P.) But the transparent criminal junk from one who has twice taken an oath to UPHOLD the Law, the Constitution, makes me rage.
...Well, then. It was put out there in the news simply as a tit-for-tat item. You did me. Now I'm doing you. How d'ya like THEM apples, Joe?
Childish Orange nutjob. OF COURSE the Trumpster could not be trusted. No one else who has held the title o…
So, the insurrectionist is in charge and firing back at those who actually took their oath seriously. What a galactically monstrous Orange mountain of defecated wet slop.
Trump's plan is to build his hotels in Gaza and have the US military do the work for him. Everything done by him is for his own benefit.
THAT'S the truth!
Finally got rid of him for Biden but they hated Biden because he didn't end the Gaza war.
Joe did more than that. He was fueling the genocide. A big reason he did not get my vote. Neither did the Orange Goop. And by the way: don't look now, but whi…
Because of the Panama City location of its HQ, I offer this re: BLX ("Bladex").
Founded in 1979, Bladex's mission is to promote foreign trade and regional integration. Its network includes offices in Panama, Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, the …
From "The Hill:"
Panamanian President José Raúl Mulino on Thursday rejected U.S. claims that American warships and boats can transit the Panama Canal without paying a standard fee.
In a weekly news conference, Mulino disputed a statement from the S…
