@mrddmia Todd Young gets reelected by appearing to be everybody’s friend, doing nothing, and avoiding any serious primary challenges. He is a Hoosier John Thune. If Ken Paxton wins in Texas, it will show that Todd Rokita would get elected in a landslide in Indiana.
@EOTW2024@infraa_@TFTC21@jackmallers Nobody considers throwing out the entire system and having everyone start from zero since there are two sides to these debts. Your credit card balance is somebody’s savings account. Your mortgage is somebody’s pension. Go watch Jimmy Stewart in “It’s a Wonderful Life”.
@BankUnlimited@infraa_@TFTC21@jackmallers I don’t think the chart says the workers have $250k in savings. I think it says the average worker has to work about two years pretax or three years after tax to retire his/her share of the national debt. Vote accordingly.
@infraa_@TFTC21@jackmallers Bitcoiners see crypto as protection against dilution. But what if Trump or Mamdani decide to pull a FDR and force you to exchange gold and crypto for dollars at a fixed rate and then dilute to protect the banking and credit system?
@infraa_ Kevin Warsh feels like the second coming of Paul Volcker. Guys who bought a lot of stock on margin will screech like their pants are on fire, but put up with them for 18 months and you can likely buy a house without selling one first.
@AndrewDesiderio If 80% of the people want the Save Act to pass and Thune is correct when he says the votes are not there, the inescapable conclusion is that a majority of the Republican Senators represent something or somebody other than the American voter. We better find out who this is.
@DailyCaller So, some Senate Republicans hate Trump too much to pass a bill that 75% of Americans and 85% of Republicans support. Can the Senator kindly give us the names so we can vote accordingly?
@infraa_@SimplyBitcoin The bitcoin guy didn’t claim cattle were a good store of value. He only said they reflected inflation well. Cattle require inputs like feed and pharmaceuticals which also reflect real world inflation and thus costs are hard to hide.
@libsoftiktok Sen. Wiener is the lawmaker who pushed a tax on soft drinks in the name of “healthier foods” but also sponsored legislation reducing legal penalties for failing to inform sex partners of a positive HIV status. His priorities and judgments are suspect.
@sfchronicle In the 1960s The SF Chronicle and the Berkley Barb preached sticking it to the man and standing strong for your principles. Now they are against, of all things, defacing your official uniform. But it was never about principles, was it, Karl Marx?
@Scott_Wiener You are correct Senator Wiener. Violation of an employer’s rules based on employees beliefs or values should be grounds for employee discipline. Abolish unions.
@RWMaloneMD Actually, the SPLC fact pattern closely resembles a typical surprise ending to a Hollywood “thriller” while being nothing like straightforward investigative reporting.
@infraa_ The Vice President has issued a statement calling Reuter’s announcement false. His claim is that the $300 billion figure is an amount Kuwait has agreed to fund contingent on Iran meeting agreed upon benchmarks necessary to enhance Kuwait’s future security.
@SenToddYoung This action is not meaningless, however it is inconsequential. Thus, I’m not surprised that you are the member of Congress calling attention to it. You, Senator Young, specialize in press releases calling attention to the inconsequential.
@KonstantinKisin The first time I questioned the legitimacy of the country? When the FBI started raiding political rivals of the Administration in office.
@theblaze Actually Pete, The US Supreme Court is the least “rogue” court in the country. Ya want to see rogue? How about New York and the way that court coordinated with E. Jean Carroll? Maybe Atlanta and Fani Willis? Spare us the drama.
