Cool Link. Thanks @Mona. I had to pretty much scroll through 100-50 before I started to recognize the songs and artists. Cripes I'm getting old but still putting up a good fight when it's called for.
@davidrmoran - facts are facts, what can I say.
@hank - no need to fuss, just do what I do and move along when enough becomes enough. IIRC we went through 4-yrs of his preposterous nonsense the last time around. Think we'll get lucky this time?
@FD1K - who said "BTW, any time someone mentions Hitler or Nazis, they lose the debate, IMO." Apparently you haven't been paying attention. His tactics are right out of the Hitler/nazi playbook. Spend a little time educating yourself instead. One do…
Did I miss the memo? I thought that any equity shares which are publicly traded in any exchange must be completely public and transparent. So are most of these alternative platform trades confined to non-listed equities? Are they pink sheet stuff, p…

Does anyone here think that if the Georgia appeals court had a taped conversation of you or anyone else, saying the things trump did in this matter, could avoid a trial or jail time please explain how or why. We are truly screwed.
"1) No admission that CA leaders did anything wrong while there are plenty to go with"
Mother Nature will do what she does no matter what preparations you think you have. Handling a wildfire seems to me to be a nearly unsurmountable task from the g…
Well Musk just got himself another tax deduction for donating a bunch of fire bombs/trash cans (cyber trucks) for LA fire relief efforts. Maybe his auditors can use that to add to his earnings or bottomline.
It is my belief that people voted for this turd for two main reasons: 1) they thought he would make them richer and 2) they were afraid of a female president. Sadly it's okay to rape and violate a women but we sure don't want them running a country.
