But I'm against antisemtism so I'm glad it stopped. That you chose to have a different stance is a weird flex.

Of course I admitted there was antisemitism in them. Not a flip flop whatsoever.

Sorry the peaceful resolution of anti-semitism happened to you.

Wow, that's crazy. I don't have the foggiest idea how long it would take to unwind QE, that's really interesting and not suprising. What I've always known is that QE is so so so so so much more impactful to the economy than something like a bill that purports to cost 3t even if it does inject a huge portion of that into the economy.

For me the Pumpkins get lumped into Seattle b/c of the Singles soundtrack. Their song on that album was one of my favorites at the time.

Blaming Biden for Gas prices? https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSKBN22C1V3/#:~:text=On April 12%2C under pressure,about 10% of global output.

Agree, there are a lot of other things that were happening, the pandemic obviously but people don't remember that QE was still happening all throughout the trump presidency and that's extremely inflationary to do when it's not necessary. He brought in tariffs (that Biden hasn't removed). Trump actually pressured the fed to keep QE and low rates. No doubt inflationary.

Edman, do I remember correctly that you had a very extensive google document of the articles/evidence around the Mueller investigation?

^ thanks for posting that. Seems like a long shot but worth the shot. I don't know if the two state solution part will work so it seems like the modified Saudi approach that is short of that mentioned in the article is more likely. The one Graham says can't get 67 in the Senate. Interesting it was modeled after the 2020 peace deals which I believe were the Kushner negotiated agreements, was he better at this than we thought? Lol

Having issues with peaceful resolution after months of arguing violence is bad is an interesting way to go. It's almost as if you were virtue signalling the whole time.

Less so but McCain gave the FBI the Steele Dossier, they say Hillary did.

Other total classics: it was trumps fbi that told social media companies that hunters laptop was fake before 2020 election. It's also trumps fbi that encouraged J6 rioters allegedly Another one is that Trump administration started the Mueller investigation

Seems like an easy demand to meet. Smart move by that administration to take the easy W.

The folks on msnbc make it sound like this hope hicks testimony is really really damaging for trump

LOL nice

hahaha I was thinking in terms of "at least there's a modicum of chance I could make money if I bought the stock" but this is obviously true as well and also funny

I know you didn't mean that Theil would do it, but as a side note, I think I recall reading that he may be pulling back from political donating.

Good call, yeah same reasoning I had earlier re: stock vs donating but for rich dudes instead of MAGA.

I'm not smart enough to know what that would do to the stock, maybe someone else does, but he'd also have to have buyers and if most people think he's going to raid the company why would they buy what he's selling unless they're just hard core maga (or don't think he's going to raid the company?)

LOL that popped into my head right after I pressed submit reply but then I almost convinced myself that Trump probably doesn't give a rats.
