@MarioNawfal But killing innocent civilians in Israel is acceptable? It sounds like he just turned on the news and didn’t even try to see how they got here.

[Takeshi Nishikawa @Nishikawa1202]

@nayibbukele Very insightful especially given your situation and perspective.

@zerohedge Here is the catalyst for the next leg up in commodities not limited to CL and NG. Technical case could been made. Just needed a catalyst.

@hubermanlab @fbinegotiator Really enjoyed this episode as I am a big fan of both of your work. To be honest, I imagine sending @fbinegotiator to negotiate the peace in Ukraine and/or Middle East might have be more effective instead of USS Gerald R. Ford plus billions of dollars.

@JoePompliano That’s freaking insane!! I wish I could be half as fast as him lol

[Takeshi Nishikawa @Nishikawa1202]

@BrianJJi Incredibly well said. This was the favorite part of this @theallinpod episode this week for sure.

[Bill Ackman @BillAckman]

In 2012, @BarackObama set a red line with Syria on the use of chemical weapons. A year later, Assad gassed and killed 1,400 non-combatants. We did nothing.

In 2014, Putin invaded Crimea. We did nothing.

In September 2021, we abandoned Afghanistan in a sloppy withdrawal leading to the collapse of the country, handing our weapons and control to the Taliban.

In Feb. 2022, Putin invaded Ukraine. Since that time, we have slow-walked our military support for @Ukraine, failing to give them the armaments they need to win the war.

In our most recent budget debt crisis, we took @Ukraine out of the budget to keep the government temporarily open.

If Russia wins the war, we are handing control of the world’s bread basket to Russia, and Putin’s power and aspirations will only grow.

On September 18th, we agreed to release $6 billion to Iran, but ‘only for humanitarian purposes’ in exchange for five Americans. I remind us all that money is fungible. $6 billion for food and medical supplies frees up $6 billion Iran can use for terrorism and war. And I thought we had a policy of not negotiating with terrorists.

Why did Hamas invade Israel last night? Because the United States has consistently not kept its word on its foreign policy commitments and we look very weak.

Terrorism loves a leadership vacuum and we have created one.

We are politically divided. Our president is physically and cognitively challenged. And we are wavering on the commitment we made to @Ukraine to give them the weapons they need to win the war.

The world has become a much more dangerous place because we have not kept our word.

This needs to stop now or, dare I say, hell is coming. The world is a much safer place when the US leads, and it quickly can become a living hell when we fail to do so.

Now is the time for our government and Congress to show strength, solidarity and leadership and to follow through on our commitments to our allies and the world order.

We owe nothing less to our children.

It feels like US military involvement just never ends: Yemen, Syria, Afghanistan, Ukraine, and now Israel… Whatever we are doing doesn’t seem to be working. Maybe change our strategy to focus more in vital U.S. interests and domestic affairs? #nomorewars #peace

The opposite of illegal immigration is not no immigration. It is legal immigration. Why is it so controversial? Just work on immigration policy and regulatory framework. Sounds pretty simple. #meritbased #immigrationreform #immigration #SecuretheBorder

In the midst of a gene therapy and biotech renaissance, who’s the next to revolutionize our healthcare system? US has the highest insurance premiums, deductibles, and medical costs against global benchmarks. Living healthy is human rights but a privilege .@elonmusk @fridberg

[Takeshi Nishikawa @Nishikawa1202]

@WallStreetSilv This is offensive to all US taxpayers. This much capital could have been allocated to solve mountains of people here at home. Can we just stop fighting unnecessary wars at foreign soils? When was the last one we won??

[Takeshi Nishikawa @Nishikawa1202]

@VivekGRamaswamy Common sense for businesses but brand new concept for government. Love it!

@zerohedge If that’s prediction, what is he doing about it? Other than betting on this.

[Takeshi Nishikawa @Nishikawa1202]

@SITeslaTone Who is he again? This is literally his 25 seconds of fame and nobody will remember him by the EOY.

[Takeshi Nishikawa @Nishikawa1202]

@zerohedge It’s so ridiculous I can no longer tell if it’s serious or a joke.

[Chamath Palihapitiya @chamath]

The unions have decided to cut their nose off to spite their face.

This labor “deal” if it happens will destroy the legacy OEM automakers. Their only paths out would be to automate and replace unionized people with robots or de-unionize.

Neither are possible.

So if this plan gets implemented expect the automakers to bleed money - this is the tipping point towards structural long-term insolvency. And I don’t see how the capital markets will allow these OEMs to raise long term capital without paying exorbitant rates.

On top of this, the demand risk for these OEMs is that hyper automated/non unionized competitors like $TSLA can now completely run away with the car market because they will be able to aggressively lower prices while Ford, Stellantis etc will be forced to raise prices to pay for this labor deal.

[Takeshi Nishikawa @Nishikawa1202]

@zerohedge It’s not like there is huge demand internationally or domestically from the public to buy any of these vehicles so it won’t luckily affect the supply chain. Hopefully this will be the last strike before their insolvency.
