🚨 White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt today:
“Our nation was founded, almost 250 years ago, on Judeo-Christian values.”
The Treaty of Tripoli. 1797. Signed by Founding Father John Adams. Ratified unanimously by the Senate:
“The Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion.”
Thomas Jefferson — who wrote the Declaration of Independence — was a deist who literally cut the miracles out of his Bible.
James Madison — the father of the Constitution — explicitly warned against the “diabolical hell conceived principle of persecution” by state religion.
The First Amendment’s opening words:

I'm working on a blog post for this theory but I generated this chart to show how the percentage of capital deployed daily through weimar hyper inflation actually behaved erratically even though it overall favored certain asset classes.

“If we continue to accumulate only power and not wisdom, we will surely destroy ourselves... If we become even slightly more violent, shortsighted, ignorant, and selfish than we are now, almost certainly we will have no future.”
