@DrJStrategy if you would be so kind... It seems that the Strait is another strategic chokepoint against China oil supply. Operating under the assumption that the "war" is at least partially, if not entirely, for this aim, would Trump allow/desire the Strait opened to ease prices? Or will he damn the consequences and keep it closed? Or has he sent a sufficient message to China with his aggression and bluster?
@Masrii21@LawrenceLepard@SimonDixonTwitt@SimonDixonTwitt is great and I agree that at times you are a year ahead of the news as a result. That is, however, negated by the fact that it takes a year to watch one of his videos.

@angeldadjoe@GovPritzker More people need to be able to communicate like you. Thoughtful, articulate, reasonable... And of course my deepest sympathy to your and your family. Congratulations on turning at least a portion of your grief into a just cause. 🙏
.@GovPritzker, I saw your post honoring lives lost in Minnesota—standing publicly, naming Alex Pretti and Renee Good, and laying flowers in their memory.
But where was that same compassion on January 19, 2025?
That is the day my 20-year-old daughter, Katie Abraham, was killed here in Illinois. She was innocent. She did not knowingly put herself in the middle of an ongoing law enforcement situation. She was not making a dangerous choice.
She was simply living her life—and it was taken from her.
You have never said her name. You have never come to where she died. You have never acknowledged her publicly.
And beyond that—you have never even responded to me.
I sent you a simple, non-political letter. Not for attention. Not for headlines. Just a father asking for clarity, for answers, and for understanding of the state’s position.
You never replied.
And now, in the wake of another tragedy here in Chicago, your public display of compassion elsewhere—while remaining silent about victims in your own state—feels deeply disconnected from the reality families like mine are living every day.
Instead, you continue to defend sanctuary policies that create the conditions where preventable tragedies like hers can happen.
This is not about politics. It’s about leadership and accountability.
When you choose to publicly mourn some victims while remaining silent about others—especially those lost under policies you support—it sends a message.
Whether intentional or not, it tells families like mine that our loss does not matter the same way.
So I am asking you directly:
Where is your compassion for my daughter? Where is your acknowledgment of victims here in Illinois? And when will you take responsibility for the consequences of the policies you defend?
Say her name: Katie Abraham.
Stand where she died. Show the people of Illinois that every life matters.
Just saying my understanding of the stoics is that their teachings do not lead me to the conclusion that professing your greatness to any and all who see your profile is in line with their philosophy. Also as a student of philosophy I am aware that my interpretation (and the generally accepted perception of stoic dogma) could very well be illusory, and your self-avowed annotation could indeed be in concert with their feelings on self-aggrandizement.
Interesting, in my travels around the world I've found most people are proud to admit where they hail from, regardless of whether or not people from different places care for their current leader or not. Here in the US, not one Persian or Russian or Chinese I've ever meet stateside has "whispered" their nationality, although to a man each and every single one that I've conversed with on the topic hates the Ayatollah or Putin (the Chinese don't let the subject stray to Zi for the most part)... I guess all my American friends have collapsed into a bunch of snowflakes, equating their mere existence with the rule of Trump. Or perhaps they're all whispering because they're sick of people judging them because they live in America under Trump, so it's a reflection of the toxicity of the reaction they get, not just the president. But whatever the reason, they have abandoned all of what I believe to be the essential quality of freedom and human existence. Instead of proudly proclaiming their Americanism, they have shrunken into to sniveling tourists scared of the shame that they receive or that they perceive will be heaped on them for living in a country with a crappy leader. Sad commentary on a great nation and its citizens' behavior abroad.
@Your_NLP_Coach I see a range between 62k and 72k with a deviation or two. Wait for a full candle or body outside the range then find your entry. In the meantime, short here for a range play until the market shows us something else.
Put $1000 in this account last week. Scalping perps nonstop. Life is good. Going to start live streaming trade sessions soon. Gotta find a camera first.🤣
@SimonDixonTwitt In the two decades prior to WWII, the Jews were well aware of Hitler's antisemitic platform and did not participate in his accumulation of political and military capital as was customary of the Jewish bankers prior to 1920. There is no historical documentation that I am aware of to substantiate this claim. Could you shed some more light on why I should:
1) believe these emails are authentic?
2) believe Ariane is being truthful?
3) have any reason to ascribe to the notion that the Rothschilds would fund a man dedicated to the extermination of their people?
I am open to changing my mind, but this is a significant revelation and needs to be extensively scrutinized as you are well aware. I recommend The Origins of Totalitarianism by Hannah Arendt as an absolute must read on the subject. It's a bit of a grind but such an epic work of philosophy and history.
