@john_e587@JimOrr57@historyinmemes Reagan had an obsession with jelly beans. Supposedly to help him kick smoking. I am reasonably certain this exchange took place when Clinton visited Reagan. It does show much more good spirit than we see with Trump. Trump is a manifestation of societal problems.
120 Harvard Jewish affiliates signed an open letter denouncing the U.S. DOJ’s latest lawsuit, accusing the Trump administration of weaponizing antisemitism complaints to curb free speech.

@Bumdogmilli@ABC I don’t get that - it is a cultural landmark and important for a city so tied to film and TV. It is also in single family residential neighborhood. Putting density in that neighborhood - isn’t allowed nor desirable.
@Matt_Pinner CORPUS - Les Moutons - essentially why Canadians have far better humor than Americans. Sick bastards here politicizing this fine troupe’s . https://t.co/XNrJ7MnW0w
@AngelaBelcamino Think about rephrasing-the MAGAs claim common sense. I find that common sense, is trivial and still isn’t so common and what people typically call common sense seldom is. I have the rare sense and get paid well for it. Rare sense requires experience, knowledge and training.

@LindelSmith@MakeTexasBlue22@SoldTheMoon Markowitz - half seriously would say, “you don’t want your mother pushing a shopping cart”. Essentially-Social Security provides a low risk source of income. It is best that it is only part of the portfolio, however for far too many this is all they have got.
@LindelSmith@MakeTexasBlue22@SoldTheMoon Employer contribution as well. That is 2 x 6.2% or $8680 in your scenario per year. However equating it to the stock market is wrong, it is supposed to be a safer defined benefit. As a student of Harry Markowitz, I could opine on risk vs return and the efficiency curve.
@TallJohnSilver@The_Briterican@AP Speak to an attorney - he can appeal, but as right now the 34 felony convictions in New York State - which is a serious matter that can result in prison and/or fine. Given his current status - it is more likely a fine as New York is unlikely to jail a sitting President.
A second Trump term comes with unacceptable risks https://t.co/hpi2KySt4h from @Economist - Highly regarded Economist takes a position - I am 100% in agreement.
