@seanmdav My grandparents came over "only" 100 years ago, but they worked hard and helped build this country like so many millions of others like them. Ditto for my parents and me. If I'm not as American as everyone else, I'd like a reduction on my income taxes

@RudyHavenstein Everyone thinks God is on their side until they get punched in the face. I think Allah has probably had it with everyone

Fed has been creating about $5-10b/wk since the end of supposed QT, which in % terms is about average for the past 100 years, so policy is neutral. This will increase at some point to accommodate exploding gov spending.

@chesscom Ng6? Protects the king, threatens the bishop, and pins the knight because the bishop is loose

@RudyHavenstein Just heard that the great Neil Sedaka died. Is it just me, or did he bear a striking resemblance to @SenTedCruz in their younger days? https://t.co/0tv4EqZjch

@jimiuorio I was at one of those 1986 playoff games against the Celts. He was unbelievable (so was Bird). Somehow, I managed to park on the street right outside of Chicago Stadium, walk in, and buy a ticket the day before the game. There were only 2 people in line ahead of me.

@RobertlewisIR @chesscom 4 looks right. Rxf7 Kh8, and there's no mate next turn.

@mtaibbi When I was 15, I was charged with criminal trespassing on the NYC subway, a misdemeanor. The judge made me tell my father about it and bring him to court the next day. It was worse than being deported

@hassanalshama @michaeljburry This is all correct, thanks for posting it. I'd only add w/r to #2 we (and Russia) already have launch sites that are even closer than Greenland - they're called submarines

@chesscom I love Arjun's reaction

Recent buy of $STZ at $138. Close to adding to positions in $CE and $STNE. Keep watching $PYPL, but just don't think it's ready yet

@antlopang Driving in Italy takes guts. I was once at a roundabout in Sicily, and every third car was going the wrong way around because it was shorter

@jimiuorio When I lived in Chicago 40 years ago, it was a great city. I hope it becomes great again

@chess24com Favs have to be Fabi, Naka, Pragg. Long shots Sindarov and Wei. Any one of them would have a decent shot at Gukesh. Candidates and world championship wide open and will be exciting to watch

Seems like a good entry point for $META

@DavidBCollum 1. most energy stocks are cheap; 2. Brazil; 3. not a well run company. It's not too hard to find US oil/gas stocks at similar valuations but much less risk

@jimiuorio What a lovely doggie
