Yet another data point supporting the view that there is change afoot in the global financial system.

I know it's trite, but this is all "how to dismantle a reserve currency."

The dollar as the go-to haven in times of crisis, well, that appears (again) to be shaky.

No joke! I have a friend (who is my age) who grew up outside Harbin in a one room hut with no running water. Needless to say, she is made of tougher stuff than I am.

This something I want people to understand. If you don’t get their names, they’re just gone. There’s no arrest record and the snatch-and-grabs can last seconds. People simply disappear and we can’t find out who they are or what happened to them.

Just want to make sure that people understand, this guy isn't saying this because he's ignorant or stupid, he's saying it because he does not believe we should live in a free society. That is the entire Republican Party. They do not believe in living in a free society.

the dems dont want to oppose this because they dont want to look anti law enforcement

Worthwhile thread on Mr Rogers who was f**king awesome and the sad de-evolution of the GOP in America as reflected in Meghan McCain.

The Fed’s job is to take away the punch bowl. If presidents can fire a responsible bartender, don’t be shocked when the party ends with a hangover: higher inflation and bigger booms/busts.

When actual operational & financial performance collides with speculation on a Trump Admin bailout.

Whatever performative bullshit Jeffries did with respect to his own vote notwithstanding, not whipping this vote and allowing Democrats to be the difference between it passing and failing means that Jeffries doesn't give a fuck about what ICE is doing.

No one in the media will call him out over this lie or any of the others he spouts.

This happened AFTER we recorded BUT we jumped on and re-recorded that segment to address this.

GOD HIMSELF CANNOT SINK THIS PODCAST

They hate it being talked about because it undermines the Big Lie that the rise in inequality was due to the "free market." There is nothing free market about government-granted patent and copyright monopolies. But you aren't even allowed to say that in major media outlets.

Worth noting that among those participating in ICE/DHS watch in Minneapolis today — who Emmer appears to frame as “chaos agents” here — are literally hundreds of clergy.

Screenshot from STAT article that says "What we're going to have is a real-world experience of when unvaccinated people get measles," he said. "What is the new incidence of hospitalization? What's the incidence of death?"

RFK Jr. appointee Kirk Milhoan has just clearly stated, out loud, that he wants to experiment on the people of the United States by seeing what happens as vaccination coverage plummets and infectious diseases spread.

Burying the Bruises The White House insists Donald Trump’s visible bruises are nothing, but medical experts say the explanation doesn’t hold up. Why are the country’s biggest newsrooms silent?

Professional athletes on average consistently disappoint when you learn anything more about them other than their stats.

It appears Trump really did not like Dimon saying it was wrong for ICE to assault grandmothers this week in Davos.

You may not like Dimon or think he deserves it, but this is a terrible development for freedom in America—the Trump administration is broadcasting its intent to silence all criticism.

I called this one easily.

I fought in Afghanistan as a Marine.

Danes were in Helmand before Marines were.

43 Danes gave the last full measure of devotion because the U.S. asked and we had been attacked.

I’m ashamed this man is the commander in chief. This isn’t how you treat friends who bled with you.

"Trump did eventually walk back his threat of issuing tariffs on the eight European countries which he considered to be standing in his way on Greenland, but by that point, things were already too far gone." www.politico.eu/article/eu-l...

"They are willing to fight, and penalize, and doxx, and even insult our law enforcement officers."

Not the insults, anything but the insults!

Hearing Vance speak like this it's clear that they *know* they're losing on the ground in Minneapolis and also losing the narrative.
