What are we negotiating??

You could try reading the link I shared. “This last sentence pinpoints one reason for Mencken’s popularity among the black intellectuals of the 1920s. He seemed to know what they knew, that beneath the smug surface of American life was a core of rottenness. Like the child in the famous fairy tale, Mencken saw Uncle Sam without any clothes on, and he did not hesitate to laugh. His satire of southern culture (at a time when the South still reveled in its romantic myths), his identification with the literature of realism and rebellion — these facets of Mencken’s public and literary personality had a specific influence on the black intellectuals, but what they liked about Mencken generally was his personal courage.” “Several times Mr. Mencken has written on the race question, and although he has no special interest in the *****’s rights and wrongs, he always writes on the *****’s side, because he sees that on that side lies the truth.”

He was your average run-of-the-mill Nietzsche reader, though modern scholars pin his beliefs more on being an elitist. Black scholars of the 1920s liked him! https://muse.jhu.edu/pub/1/oa_monograph/chapter/2391692

We still waiting and seeing or are we allowed to have a reaction yet?

Was wondering when you'd show up. Enjoying the golden Trump economy?

I have nothing but respect for the men dying for their country in the face of foreign hostile aggression.

When you mess with a group of idiots like farmers, then you're going to find out really quick. "…Let the farmer, so far as I am concerned, be damned forevermore. To Hell with him, and bad luck to him. He is a tedious fraud and ignoramus, a cheap rogue and hypocrite, the eternal Jack of the human pack. He deserves all that he ever suffers under our economic system, and more. Any city man, not insane, who sheds tears for him is shedding tears of the crocodile. Yet we are asked to venerate this prehensile moron as the Ur-burgher, the citizen par excellence, the foundation-stone of the state! And why? Because he produces something that all of us must have — that we must get somehow on penalty of death. And how do we get it from him? By submitting helplessly to his unconscionable blackmailing by paying him, not under any rule of reason, but in proportion to his roguery and incompetence, and hence to the direness of our need. ..." - HL Mencken

Then take them back. They are not his. The US and EU continues to fund Ukrainian resistance. Give them whatever they like. Whatever it takes.

If Trump was so concerned about debt, he wouldn't be pushing a plan that RAISES the deficit. But I'm sure you knew that.

The war will end when Russia ends the invasion. It is Putin’s decision, nothing more. Something you seem to be conveniently ignoring.

What an atrocious attempt at a spin. Tariffs on building materials will make it near-impossible to build more housing. Young people are much more involved in the stock market than this person thinks. 15% of holders began in 2020. https://www.aboutschwab.com/generation-investor-study-2021 Trump is deliberately creating a recession. I have no idea why.

A lot changes in 16 years. What side do you want? Trump "works well" with Putin because for some damn reason, Trump really likes Putin. Putin likes Trump because he's happy to roll over and let him have whatever he wants. He's a weak soyboy.

Support is “non existent” thanks to years of pure, unfiltered right wing propaganda and brain rot. It started with Limbaugh and it’s reached its natural conclusion with clowns like Fuentes. Ukraine has enough supplies stocked up to last the summer. With luck, by that point the EU will send more and really deliver the boom. That loser pariah oligarchy will get its comeuppance. It’s a matter of time.

What’s your conspiracy here? That the war is fake?

And then they do it again down the line. No thanks.

If Elon keeps firing veterans especially, someone is going to get hurt. He’s messing with the bull.

Beautiful

Great stuff! America First!

Making farmers sell at a higher price to a smaller market will certainly go over well

Fine, run his phone over with a bus then

Dude, Pool was caught taking money from Russia to push a specific agenda. He’s a complete grifter dork.

I hope Tim Pool gets hit by a bus. Guy took thousands in Russian money to carry weight for a group of people that would have him executed against a wall if they got their way. Tell the stock market that

Damn that woke DEI reserve bank!
