@adamcarolla Looked at the 2005 and 2020 studies. Among the elderly, all cause mortality didn’t move much as a result of getting the flu shot even though the shot did reduce death rates from the flu by 47%. Contraction? No… the flu doesn’t kill many people, so the drop isn’t noticeable.
@CBSNews@bariweiss It’s an interesting comparison. But if I recall, the rising power (Athens) overplayed their hand when they invaded an island (Sicily) and lost to Sparta. Maybe Xi shout think again.
Eighty years ago today, during a freezing Moscow winter, a US diplomat, George F. Kennan, sent a 5,500-word cable that would shape the next half-century. "The Long Telegram", is a remarkable read. https://t.co/LOZdmSZMXJ
@VGSchoonover@QCompounding This take only works if you don’t know the history. Bogle created index mutual funds, not ETFs, made no founder fortune, and compressed fees across the entire industry. Vanguard is mutualized/ owned by its investors. Few people gave more to regular investors than he did.
@scottlincicome@stephenfhayes The notion that trade deficits diminish national wealth seems to be shared by Warren Buffett. https://t.co/jlVxESOHLX Thoughts?
@nytimes Names… what are the names of the government officials that authorized and carried this out??? They should not be allowed to hide behind the anonymous name of their agency.
Went to NY Comic-Con, and met Alex Hirsch! Jos and I dressed as Mabel and Grunkle Stan, and she made both costumes herself. She was so excited to meet the creator of her favorite show! #BookofBill#GravityFalls#Falloween2024@_AlexHirsch
@j_puignau Yes, the Justice Dept should go after Biden with exactly the same way. But I read the 49 page indictment of Trump. I challenge anyone who wants to defend Trump to read it. He deserves to be toast.
@mitchellreports@nytimes Mr. Barnes’ seems credible. But Connally’s adventure seems more like something he devised than something he was directed to do. Offering this deal in one world capital after another is amateurish. If Reagan had tasked him with this, Connally would have gotten the role he wanted.
