Mandami and AOC sharing a good laugh while the names of 9/11 victims are read is quite the visual

@ClayTravis I’m sorry I stole your land.

So you’re going to give it back to us?

Nope

Bill Clinton: “The Palestinians were offered a state. They refused. A state wasn't their goal. Killing Jews was."

[Thierry from arvy 🇨🇭 @ThierryBorgeat]

Railroads were once 63% of the entire US stock market.

Not 63% of transport stocks. 63% of everything listed.

The history of concentration, in order:

– Tulips, 1637. A single bulb traded for the price of an Amsterdam canal house.
– South Sea Company, 1720. Shares went from about £128 in January to above £1,000 by summer, then back near £150 by December.
– US railroads, 1840s. 63% of US market cap.
– Utilities, telecom and industrials, 1929. 36%.
– Nifty Fifty, 1972. 40%.
– Japan, 1989. 44% of global equity.
– Dot com, 2000. 41%.
– AI Big 10, today. About 40%.

Every one of them was built on something real. Railroads did compress a continent. The internet did rewire commerce. Being right about the technology was never the thing that protected you.

The tulip story is also less clean than the legend. Modern research found the economic damage was modest and the ruin was mostly literary.

The bubble was never in the idea. It was in how many people decided to own the same idea at the same time.

@johnarnold Don't forget about Austin and Houston. Massive growth in the financial communities there, too.

I remember reading Liar's Poker while growing up in Dallas in 1989. The book described “Equities in Dallas” as Wall Street’s version of Siberia: the least prestigious job in Salomon Brother's least prestigious office. Times have changed.

Hasan Piker calls on his followers to kill capitalists:

“Yeah kill them! KiII those motherfuckers and murder those motherfuckers in the streets. Let the streets soak in their fucking red capitalist blood, dude.”

Democrats are campaigning with him.

[Charles Murphy @lpcm_murphy]

@JLopas You're a beast, dude. Congratulations!

Chris Hohn: "There was a spiritual master once [who] said, 'Very few things matter and most things don't matter at all.' That could also apply to investing."

"What does matter? Competition matters."

"[Competition] makes predictability and valuation impossible."

"To me, competition and disruption are the whole thing. It's not about growth because you can have a first-mover advantage, grow for a period, and then a new technology or a new competitor kills you off."

Jews lived in Judea and Spaniards lived in Spain until both were conquered by Arab Muslims in the 7th century.

Spaniards regained their land in the 13th century, and Jews in the 20th century.

If Judea is "occupied", then so is Spain. If "Free Palestine" then "Free Al-Andalus".

My full speech at the @OxfordUnion debating whether the west is right to be suspicious of Islam.

I needed a security team to attend and we were spat at, bullied and heckled by a baying mob.

But I will not give up on free speech.

I will not submit.

With regard to "Judeo Christian":

The 10 Commandments are Jewish.

The great stories of the Old Testament are Jewish.

The Jews developed the idea of subsidiarity as the alternative to tyranny and slavery.

The Jews established the cultural preconditions for the rise of universal literacy.

The fate of Israel at the hands of the Islamists is the fate of the West.

This rising tide of anti-semitism sickens me. Those of you engaging in it for your oh-so-moral reasons—you're despicable.

And remember, you proud "Christians" objecting in all your purity to the term:

Christ Himself was a Jew.
