Nick Fuentes is still around and these guys were given high ranking cabinet jobs https://www.npr.org/2025/05/14/nx-s1-5387299/trump-white-house-antisemitism -
were talking about the 30 year T bill. Its yield hasn't been this high since 2007. It's rise has serious implications Since bond prices move inversely to yields, rising yields indicate investors are selling bonds. This behavior runs counter to the typical flight-to-safety response during market turmoil and has fueled worries of a broader "sell America" trade. Wall Street analysts say the volatility reflects a shift in investor sentiment as recent optimism around trade developments gives way to renewed concern over the nation’s ballooning debt. And while markets initially shrugged off the credit downgrade, analysts caution the bond market isn’t out of the woods, pointing to rising fiscal uncertainty and stubborn inflation as key factors likely to keep long-term yields volatile in the short run.

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/bond-market-jitters-rise-on-narrative-shift-from-positive-tariff-news-to-mounting-us-debt-crisis-080046279.html The 30-year Treasury yield (^TYX) is now trading at its highest level since 2007, climbing above 5.1% following a weak Treasury auction and renewed fiscal concerns. The latest leg higher came early Thursday after the House approved President Trump’s sweeping tax reform package, reigniting investor anxiety over the country's worsening fiscal trajectory.

Firstly, it's not a major party. It's a fringe group. And the S African leader condemned them for the song but noted that they have the right to free speech there just like hate groups have it here, in Charlottesville for example. Yes, the Jim Crow south set an American precedent for extreme racism just as apartheid did in South Africa. Both have led to continued hatred and violence. -

and I can show you KKK and other white supremacist propaganda calling for killing blacks (and Jews). Pictures of brutal lynchings, hangings and draggngs from the not so distant past. trump would never present those in the oval office. But your fictional chem eng friend apparently had no problems there and made his vast fortune. -

amazing that when D's bring up racial inequality or injustice maga's call it "playing the race card". But when they do it, claiming they're being discriminated against, they offer full throated support. the oval office was used yesterday as a propaganda movie house. Re the crosses, whether or not they were actually filmed in S Africa, they were clearly not graves as trump insisted. Ya think the racist who choreographed this vile side show didn't know that? Steven, Steven Miller is that you? The presidential way of going about this would be to discuss it in private. And have both sides listen to each other. barring that, why not discuss a solution together. Asked about solutions trump just said "I don't know". He truly is the great divider. No doubt SC is correct that he gained some soccer mom votes and solidified his white working class male vote. Some now envision a black mob with machetes screaming through their subdivisions or trailer parks. Fear has been successfully used for political gain by unscrupulous leaders forever. -
How will Trump’s tax INCREASE affect you?
Joe Ferguson forever replied to BillStime's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I think you're correct but just as on Jan 6, the constitution and the decency of the majority of Americans will prevail. Sadly, and honestly, I'm not that confident. -

How's it affecting me? The biggest issue is health care. Hospitals are going to close. "Providers" are going to be less available and less well trained. Kind of a big deal. The walmart and target price increases suck but not the most important thing. The market is also very shaky. All in all, it's wonderful -

Firstly, I'm not at all ashamed of my heritage which is as WASP as it gets without the P. But I don't feel the need to fight for my whiteness. Sorry you do. -

I'd put afghanis who we promised asylum first.. But my list would be based on actual risk. Don't believe Afrikaners would be in the top 25. 4 and 5 are not met. Ukraine certainly does. -

Bullshite. There are many, many more people at much greater risk of murder in multiple countries, Sudan for example. They’re not being welcomed here. They’re not white. Just another show for stupid MAGAs put on by trump. The video is Afrikaner propaganda https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-seizes-videos-fringe-south-202452531.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall&guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly9zZWFyY2gueWFob28uY29tLw&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAALM2dLpAm-egyM8_m3AcE99FusOoqePW_djlBtiRl1bYjtdDRTGmsVEAl_VToNhb6EF9yaKjLbXzdfN82D3lCl8yuMqscuMd0lhNkwEP54iYYKlLK8vRiBiH2RCMByVRjVPHbsidE3qKXbeQDyTkd4vpImfclAsmKdd4uSAGDgF5 -
at least you're consistent(ly)....incorrect' looks like he stopped screening for prostate cancer after age 70 consistent with guidelines. BPH actually causes many false positive psa's. A history of this makes psa even less useful. TURP, the surgery most often done for BPH, has nothing to do with cancer and wouldn't be a factor in deciding whether to do further screening psa's

bs. every one of my nieces and nephews of age have college degrees. one has a recent Chem Engineering degree from Berkley. He has only worked independent contractor jobs from big pharmaceutical so far. No benefits, both sides of social security, no 401k match etc. Big companies do this routinely now to save money (make more money). The days of working for a company with full benefits for your entire career are gone. If a president can tell Walmart to eat tariffs, he can also demand that companies treat their employees better.
