I was awoken by the most incredible explosion, I think around 4am. Our entire apartment shook
Nobody yet knows how many are killed, first estimate I am hearing is about 90 dead and hundreds injured. Desperate rescue attempts ongoing.
No warning. An entirely civilian block.
@bskhung I keep get in and out, I was all in last week and now %30 cash. Will probably increase to %50 next week and get some interest for a while, until I see something really cheap.
@jkatulak For me one concern is what's going on with the international customers. Too much focus on the US and no transparency for the state of international customers. Or maybe I missed something.
For clarification, I'm referring to risk assets like tech and crypto. Stagflation is still the biggest risk, so cash is not safe. So value, dividend paying stocks, as well as gold and the miners are still buys.
Markets are now pricing in a near 100% probability of a 50 basis point Sept. rate cut. I think that comfort caused a knee-jerk reaction to buy the dip. But that's too little, too late, especially when any hotter than expect #inflation data could lower those odds. Sell the rip!
This is a video of Peter Thiel, the PayPal billionaire who helped launched the political career of JD Vance. This video is so cringe as Peter deep down knows what he supports is categorically wrong ...just look at how much he stuttered in his initial response before bluntly stating the truth:
“My bias is to defer to Israel.”
More defense spending? No debate.
Massive tax breaks to billionaires? Not a problem!
But when it comes to paying our teachers a fair wage, oh my – an impossible task.
Give me a break.
Shocking that the CEO of Palantir could make a claim as bold and ignorant as "there is no tech scene in China and Russia". I won't speak for Russia as I've never visited the country, but I hope one day this CEO would travel to Shenzhen and other cities in China. He would be absolutely shocked by the development and tech coming out of China's Silicon Valley! This possibly might be one of the dumbest statements I've ever heard about China.
Given Israel’s scale of war crimes over the last 7 months, how are we are even debating whether this rogue state should be allowed to finish ethnically cleansing Gaza?
I find it extraordinary that Congress is very quick to bring forth bills and resolutions condemning student protesters, but there has been minimal discussion about what these young people are actually protesting.
Some of the 400 bodies discovered in mass graves at Nasser Hospital in Gaza.
According to reporting, these bodies include children with their hands tied behind their backs — murdered while in captivity, a direct breach of the Geneva Convention.
BREAKING: An explosive investigation by @yuval_abraham exposes some of the AI machines the Israeli army uses, which have killed thousands of innocent civilians.
The operators of the AIs "Lavender" and "Where's Daddy?" speak to @mekomit and @972mag here:

"It's much easier to bomb a family's home. The system is built to look for them in these situations."
Built to look for them at home. Built to. And yet the person saying this is not a critic of the Israeli regime. It's an intelligence officer describing business as usual.
Remember when we were told children were being killed in Gaza because Hamas was using them as human shields? Now we know the real reason. When Israel wanted to kill someone, they waited till he went home, then dropped a bomb on the building, killing the whole family.
Please stop with all this. You don’t get to keep giving weapons to Netanyahu, in defiance of American law, to kill innocents with, including innocent Americans, and then pretend you’re ‘pissed’ at Netanyahu. Come on. We weren’t born yesterday.
🚨Hostages are having their legs amputated from being zip-tied by all 4 limbs for months; they're being forced to defecate in diapers & fed through straws.
Those are Gazan hostages at Israel's Sde Teiman "concentration camp", so you won't see one word about it in Western media🧵
