I recognize the name. Could it POSSIBLY be the General of the Army who chafed under George Patton's insistence upon beating Monty into Messina????

....Yes. Not to mention that his ICE masked, anonymous, lawless gestapo goons are making war upon our own people, citizens or not. Pass the teargas, please.

Good morning. Helluva crazy-ass thing to wake up to... At least I'm better informed, now. This madness in every direction must end. Excuse me. Going to vomit now. Is he dead yet?
Carney had to renounce two other citizenships to take the job he now has. That's a big price to pay. It was not REQUIRED by law. It was politically smart. Carney is THE MAN, now. The US and its leadership are, sadly, the joke.
@larryB:
This shit is not remotely normal. REMEMBER THOSE WORDS! And will there even be mid-term elections held? Will the Orange pile of Feces create a fiat emergency and declare himself the owner of some new Super Power that lets him CANCEL them?…
I dislike the Trump administration's policies and actions.
In my opinion, Donald J. Trump is an illegitimate president because he fomented the Jan. 6 insurrection.
Instead of "Making American Great Again," he has caused great harm—some of which may …
That picture-story is frighteningly true...
I pulled this from a guy on Facebook:
Alex Pretti was holding a phone, not a gun. His crime? Trying to help a lady that agents shoved to the ground. So they killed him.
He worked at the ICU at the Minneap…
"Just a week ago, Trump had voiced his support for Carney on the China trade deal.

If you can get a deal with China, you should do that,' Trump told reporters

Absolutely. And about that "Board of Peace:" Who do you think will keep the $1B from those who take the "Permanent Seat" option? The offer to BUY a place on an international "Board Of Peace" confirms what I've been saying, but I'm sure I was not the…
There were six or 8 of them and they already had him flat on the sidewalk. Nazi Gestapo Chickenshit masked scumbags.

It has been confirmed that Alex was a lawful gun owner and did not threaten ICE with a weapon. Early video report…
Every bit of news just makes me want to vomit. Tne badges and the guns are supposed to PROTECT us, not make war upon us.
The Orange regime cannot be sent off to the dustbin of history soon enough. Trump and his ass-kissers are sacs of pus on the a…
Easy for Crash and I to comment, sitting here in the warmth. But dammit, if we can get a general strike going my wife and I will be there.
Man, you SAID IT.
Howdy Crash,
Hope you're staying warm. I honestly don't see them ever coming back down. It's not that the r/EuropeFIRE are rising but that the fiat currencies are falling. Even Powell is printing money with low short term rates and TACO wants l…
I don't even have to ask if you really understand this stuff, sarge. My hesitation right now about putting money into P.M.is that there's already been such a run-up. The "late" money is "dumb" money. Do you really still think it's not too late? @ron…

Buy low, sell high. BLX has had a great run up, along with everything else in the past couple of days. (and prior, too.) I've got a sell order in for just over 4% of my total investment there. So, as Liz Ann Sonders has said: "trim high and buy low.…
"As Trump’s dementia worsens, several axioms are useful for interpreting his increasingly incoherent bloviation."
Axiom #1: Whatever he asserts to be a fact is either a wild exaggeration or a bald-faced lie.
Always disregard.
Axiom #2: Whatever he…

The irony of the title of this thread and just how historically bad the last week has been for the country is not lost on the patriots posting here. It’s so bad that in our house we are putting limits on news consumption and watching baking you tub…
After the Carney speech, the iShares Canada ETF (EWC) has jumped to a new 52-week high. Here at MFO, it's already been suggested that he could very well be the new leader of the Free World. I wouldn't mind a bit. And it looks as though he speaks a p…
"The Rover." Do you hear an evolution in the band's sound here?
"Freeway Jam." And Jeff Beck is not with us anymore. Everybody's dying. Shit.
