I've been wondering if WB let the portfolio go static and the cash build up to go out on a calm note and let Mr. Abel take the reins of a fresh horse. It will be interesting to see what transpires although it could just be business as usual.
"Can the government shutdown again at the end of January if the Republicans do not negotiate on heath care to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credit?"
I take it that this was a serious question. I would hold no hope at all of that happening when…
And then there's this:
"The Trump administration recently instructed states to “immediately undo” any measures taken to provide full food stamp benefits to low-income households through SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program). This directi…
Candy Dulfer, Dave Stewart: Lily Was Here.
You'll see lots of Ulco Bed, too.
@Crash - Too Cool!
And I agree with @Observant 1 on Levon Helm: Ophelia at The Ryman. Fun stuff!
From a WaPo email I received written by Shira Ovide - The Tech Friend:
Bonkers dollars in AI
Maybe you’ve heard that artificial intelligence is a bubble poised to burst. Maybe you have heard that it isn’t. (No one really knows either way, but that…
They should start by grounding all private aircraft. The shutdown would be over tomorrow or Monday. (Can't remember if those clowns work on the weekend.) It's been 37 days since they even showed up in DC.
"Gosh, the way Republicans are carrying on about Mamdani, you’d think he had been convicted of 34 felonies, had a trail of legal penalties for various frauds, and lost two civil rape trials or something."
Mamdani quote In todays Letter From an American:
“And while we cast our ballots alone, we chose hope together. Hope over tyranny. Hope over big money and small ideas. Hope over despair. We won because New Yorkers allowed themselves to hope that the…
I somewhat agree with you OJ but what good has the programs of those more entitled done for the bulk of the everyday residents of NYC? Let the people have some hope or a vision of same that someone with some power (mayor) is looking out for their in…
If SCOTUS and the putz declare that it's ok for him to run I'd like to see Obama come back to run against him.
Barring that, I believe that the Dem's need an in-your-face fighter who will attack and call out and the lies and misinformation being sp…
If it makes you feel any better (and I'm doubtful) even the most savvy get it wrong sometimes. See BRK and its investment in AAPL. Granted they made a huge pile while they held it but look what's happened since they started selling.
I'm sure the repugnant's will present this as token of their concern labeling the radical and extremist dems as the ones holding back the other half. Such posturing when people can't feed themselves or get healthcare is inexcusable.
"The American people have a right to know the full truth about their felon president. We deserve to see all of the evidence that Smith accumulated and we deserve to see it now!"
Sums it up quite rightly. Ms. Cannon is one of several squirrely judge…
Michael Jochum On the 60 Minutes Comedy Hour:
"60 Minutes of Lies
Donald Trump sits down on 60 Minutes, the supposed premier showcase of “serious journalism,” and lies his ass off for an hour without being challenged once. He claims he “ended seve…
Tina was simply the BEST in my opinion.
As for S&P 500 funds I don't/didn't have time to suss out all the various idiosyncrasies of all the options available and just went with FXAIX in my Roth and XLG in my taxable account until I change my mi…
Woody Guthrie Old Man Trump
Woody Guthrie's "Old Man Trump" is a powerful critique of Fred Trump's racist housing practices and discriminatory policies.
Hopeful video
because these do not usually go well for me.
I am a child still, old school rock-n-roll nearly always with a good dash of the blues. From the hippie and Woodstock days up to the 80's classic rock. Springsteen, Seger, Stones, Eagles, BB King, Dylan, Tina, oh man way, way too many to mention.
Well since the current commander-in-chief refers to them as suckers and losers I wouldn't expect much more than thoughts and prayers.
Also compare what our military men and women earn in comparison to what Noem offers to her squad of thugs, goons a…
