I’m sure they’re “investigating the incident”

Israel executed baby Sam today with a bullet to the face in the occupied West Bank.

They killed his mother too.

Sam was only 7 months old.

They murdered a mother. And her infant.

266,000 jobs under Biden:
“slowed”
“muddled expectations”
“fell short”

172,000 jobs under trump:
“upswing”
“vigorous”
“strong sign for economy”

This is the double standard Dems have had to deal with for the past 10 years.

When people say "I'd do anything for my child," everyone praises them, but when a parent risks crossing a border to save their child from war, poverty, or danger, suddenly they're treated like criminals.

There’s a very obvious smear campaign against Ireland being run out of Israel

They are incensed that we dare to stand against them

Propaganda doesn’t work on us

Fuck you, Free Palestine 🇮🇪🇵🇸

The world's richest centi-billionaire oligarch used his power to change the rules, so he could dump his garbage company (which is cartoonishly overvalued, unprofitable, and incinerating cash) on retail investors, using trillions of dollars in retirement funds as exit liquidity, all in order to become the first trillionaire.

This is the perfect metaphor for the US economy as a whole, which is entirely based on bubbles and scams.

[VitruvianTrader @JukeboxJunky]

Zero notes. And this is how this lying, cowardly slaggard should have been dealt with at every turn.

During his campaign for first term, Donald Trump was asked how he showed $916 million net operating losses in 1995 and setting it off for next 18 years without paying any federal taxes.

Not knowing what to answer, Trump said:

​"I absolutely used it, and so did Warren Buffett. Warren Buffett took a massive deduction."

We've to learn from Buffett as to how to deal with facts and data without being emotional or vindictive.

The very next day Buffett shared his income tax returns and said:

​"I have paid federal income tax every year since 1944, when I was 13. Though, being a slow starter, I owed only $7 in tax that year. I have copies of all 72 of my returns and none uses a carryforward."

He further noted that while he made $2.85 billion in charitable contributions in 2015, tax laws properly limited his deductions, meaning more than $2.85 billion of his donations were not taken as deductions and never would be.

He asked Trump to share his tax returns in public. Not knowing what to do, Trump said he is under IRS audit and cannot publicly share his returns.

For which Buffett responsded:

"I have been audited by the IRS multiple times and am currently being audited. I have no problem in releasing my tax information while under audit. Neither would Mr. Trump -at least he would have no legal problem."

Buffett then invited Trump to any place, any time before the election so they could both bring their tax returns, sit down, and let the public ask them questions.

Trump never accepted the invitation.

From then on Trump never once even uttered the name Warren Buffett.

Looks like Trump no longer even eat buffets.

A $25B fund just refused SpaceX at any price.
It says the company can't be worth more than $1T, half the $1.8T IPO target, and Musk's 85% control makes it impossible to fix from inside. https://t.co/j6sRxoAT08

@simon_schama Simon…be honest; what is the Israeli gov position regarding Palestinian children? The same for majority of Israel citizens? Your own ignorance needs interrogation.

[VitruvianTrader @JukeboxJunky]

@elikowaz Man you think that’s bad, wait till you see what your gov ministers and the vast majority of citizens think should happen to Palestinian children.

Rule changes for the SpaceX $SPCX IPO:

Index providers waived the profitability requirement and cut the seasoning window from 90 days to 5.

This forces over $30 trillion in passive 401k and retirement money to buy SpaceX at IPO valuations.

Bloomberg Intelligence estimates S&P 500 funds must absorb 19% of SpaceX's float within 6 months.

Russell 1000 and Nasdaq 100 funds will absorb 24%.

The rules built to protect passive investors:

1. S&P 500 has required 12 months of trading and 4 quarters of GAAP profitability since 2002. Both waived.

2. Nasdaq cut its inclusion window from 90 trading days to 15.

3. FTSE Russell cut its to 5.

All three benchmarks are now structured to buy SpaceX at IPO pricing.

@WeimarClub You all pontificate on the virtues of Capitalism without ever addressing the environment it’s exercised in. All systems have weaknesses. Capitalisms are rampant now, and unaddressed.
