@ScottAdamsSays Was Dilbert guarding the old contacts? The cat might be trying to steal your identity!

@altprofileer @ScottAdamsSays I was wondering if I was the only one who saw BBB and immediately thought about"Build Back Better." Is the "Big Beautiful Bill" an intentional juxtaposition? Or is it just fun to say three words that start with "B"?

[Andre Miron @ironband]

@pulte I had such high hopes that you would help us. Surely you must realize that interest rates are not the only lever here.

[Andre Miron @ironband]

@ScottAdamsSays Truly sorry for your loss.

🧾🇺🇸 We're Not Broke Because of Math; We're Broke Because of Corruption

This week, Elon Musk declared his intent to step away from politics, citing that he's "done enough" and sees no reason to spend his money on politics. This has fired off a lot of speculation.

I haven't commented on the Big Beautiful Bill until now, mostly because I think both sides are right. It's not enough. But it is also the best we're going to get for a long while.

And that's the crux of the problem.

The most "responsible" plan anyone can come up with still adds trillions to our debt, just at a slightly slower rate. That's the hard truth. Even with the most disruptive leader in modern history, this is where we landed.

Interest rates are creeping up again. After Moody's downgrade, mortgage rates topped 7%, and 30-year Treasuries crossed 5%. In 2023, we collected just under $2.2 trillion in federal income taxes. At 5%, debt interest alone eats up 80% of that. What's left barely covers anything. And the rest of our revenue sources? Mostly payroll taxes, locked up in programs we can't touch.

We are out of money.
We are out of time.
And still, we act like it's not a problem.

I'm not saying this to sound hopeless. But we have to face the truth: this is happening because of a culture of corruption.

Both parties know where the fat is. But even the ones who campaign on responsibility won't touch foreign aid, defense waste, or pet projects. They'd rather swing at Medicaid.

This isn't a math problem; it's a cultural one.

So that’s where my focus is going. Who benefits. Who protects them. Who looks the other way. Because we don't fix this by balancing a budget. We fix it by telling the truth: loudly and clearly, until the rot has nowhere left to hide.

Al Capone didn't fall because the system held him accountable. He fell because someone followed the money.

I'm going to keep doing that.

@undisputedfrost @FntsyHeadliners All the time...

@FntsyHeadliners He is Risen Indeed!

@FantasyHdliners Terry and his 1.5 ppr points lost me my championship. But he also got me there. That said, I'm hoping to draft someone with a higher floor as my WR2 in 2025. His ability to drop 1.5 or 2 ppr points is just too risky week to week.

[Andre Miron @ironband]

@faithissosimple You will, once your eyes age and your receptors thin out. Check back in another 20 years and you might be surprised.

[Andre Miron @ironband]

@FantasyPros It started with drafting CMC at the 1.02. It ended with starting McLauren, Adams,Jacobs, and Charbonnet in the final.

[Andre Miron @ironband]

@FantasyHdliners Thanks. I'm going to need it after starting Purdy last night. Here's hoping there's no Walker so Chabonn....et can bail me out.

[Andre Miron @ironband]

@FantasyHdliners Playoff team as requested #HeadlinerNation

[Andre Miron @ironband]

@FantasyPros I need Gibbs to score 16 more PPR points than ARSB and LaPorta combined.

[Andre Miron @ironband]

@SleeperNFL Accurate

@FantasyHdliners Right? No transparency.

@ZiaErica @ScottAdamsSays Happy birthday! But why is the cat on the roof?

@WobblySlinky89 @isaiah489 @RussNRoses Said no well catechized Catholic ever. Mother of God as a title does not require divinity. We believe she was preserved from sin, and hence full of grace, but not divine.
