@JaylenRMabin @jjmaples55 Everything you are mentioning, with no student loans and possibly $25k left over to start out adult life with will put them ahead of the super majority of the US population entering the workforce.

@jjmaples55 You think they are saving that $500k? Maybe walking away with $100k after taxes, agents, new car, a vacation for the family and some jewelry.
English
75K salary with 500k as a windfall with no student loans is an absolutely wonderful place to be at 23 years old lol.
This is what out of touch looks like

Ding. Ding. Ding. It’s not the top kids that this system will fail. It’s the kids who make $500k and then $600k. They graduate, their careers sputter out and then go to get an office job and make $75k. What are they going to do then. The ncaa won’t care…

Trump is asking Congress for the biggest counterterrorism budget in years to implement NSPM-7, the national security directive targeting "anti-Americanism," "anti-Christianity" and "anti-capitalism" kenklippenstein.com/p/fbis-new-pol…

@kidzrevil Agreed for the masses. People still gonna vibe to what they want when it comes around. Personally, I’m no longer tuned into what that man has going on. Stage designs look cool from what I’ve seen but I couldn’t care any less about what music or clothes he’s peddling

Every position Trump has taken on the Strait of Hormuz. In order. In 35 days.
"We will escort tankers as soon as possible."
"It would be an honor to keep the strait open."
"I'm demanding these countries protect their own territory."
"This is the last time. I will give Iran 48 hours."
"Iran is begging for peace. We will give them more time."
"Open up the Strait of Trump. I mean, Hormuz."
Reopening Hormuz is "not a core objective."
"We don't need the strait. Get it yourself."
"The strait will open up naturally."
"Open it immediately or I'll bomb your power plants."
"Back to the stone ages."
"Take the oil and make a fortune."
"We have no role in Hormuz."
"Bridges next, then Electric Power Plants."
"48 hours before all Hell reigns down."
Oil was $73 before the war. It closed Friday at $111.
Fifteen positions. One strait.

What Iran is doing is admirable. They have used measured proportionate responses (militarily and via the media) to control the narrative. They are succeeding in illustrating that key allies will be on the wrong side of this if they enable the aggressors (US and Israel).

BREAKING:
France, China, and Russia are blocking the UN’s plan to authorize military action against Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

BREAKING: Iran says Israel will never be allowed to pass through the Strait of Hormuz, even if the war ends.

@Fyodor_Spooner @briebriejoy Why would we be funding a defense system for another nation that has free healthcare?
English
@briebriejoy or, hear me out, the state stops stealing our property(our money) and we can all afford it on our own.
English
Maybe Israel can fund the Iron Dome with their free healthcare money, and we can use the billions we send to Israel to fund healthcare for Americans.
Guy Benson@guypbenson
Iron Dome (purely defensive) saves so many innocent lives and AOC is now apparently committed to defunding it. Wrong types of lives that system is saving, it seems.

@prkyk71 @mkhalili @bbcnickrobinson @ZackPolanski The legal allegation is allowed to proceed in court because the factual allegations (if proven) amount to a genocide (the legal allegation). If they weren’t, the court would have dismissed. So the ICJ is allowing the claim to proceed so SA can try to prove their “facts.”
English
Amnesty International say what is happening in Palestine is a genocide.
The UN Special Rapporteur say it's a genocide.
Countless genocide scholars say it's a genocide.
How are we still doing this? And why is the BBC doing this?

@prkyk71 @mkhalili @bbcnickrobinson @ZackPolanski You don’t understand difference of a factual allegation & the resulting legal allegation. Killing a race of people indiscriminately is genocide. The ICJ allowed the allegations to continue (despite Israel’s arguments) because the SPECIFIC allegations SA (if proven) = genocide.
English
@FourtyFOURTY @mkhalili @bbcnickrobinson @ZackPolanski You seem confused.
The allegation before the ICJ is that Israel is violating the 1948 Genocide Convention.
The ICJ has drawn no conclusions on the merits of the case and it certainly never said the allegation is 'plausible'.
Thats it.

@RogueCfpb People assume revolving credit and “open end credit” are synonymous just because the market has historically treated a periodic interest rate applied to an outstanding balance as the best way to monetize revolving credit.
English
@RogueCfpb Ability to repay test argument under TILA Ais a loser. Open Credit exists if a fee may imposed on outstanding unpaid balance, which Klarna doesn’t. Installment fees calculated at the time of origination don’t count. Allegations 109 + 161 (intentionally) concede this point.
English
Hard to draw an ideological line between this activity by Klarna and overdrafts, generally, which are, by these standards, a form of credit.
The “infantilization” of America’s consumers continue (ht to a real nerd out there for that characterization. I’d tag him but I’m not sure he’d want to be tagged on this. But you know who you are)
Rob Freund@RobertFreundLaw
A class action filed today against Klarna alleges it extends revolving credit with no income check, targets the financially vulnerable, and then locks them into mandatory autopay, so it gets paid before rent or groceries. The complaint draws parallels to pre-2008 subprime mortgages, even calling Klarna "Collateralized DoorDash Obligations."
English
@prkyk71 @mkhalili @bbcnickrobinson @ZackPolanski No, the allegations are about the killing (specifically the way it is occurring, and the intent behind it), the conclusion (according to the court) is that the allegations (if true) amount to genocide. It’s really not that confusing, you seem to not like this.
English
@FourtyFOURTY @mkhalili @bbcnickrobinson @ZackPolanski That is just nonsensical. The allegation is genocide, so obviously if its 'proven' then its genocide.
What you said originally was that the 'plausibility' related to the allegations.
It doesn't.
And you've accepted that you were wrong.
Thanks and have a good day yourself.
English
@prkyk71 @mkhalili @bbcnickrobinson @ZackPolanski For the 7000th time, nobody has said allegations prove anything. That’s what the trial is for. The point is, after looking at the allegations, the court thinks what has been alleged (if true) could be genocide. Now we wait for trial to prove those allegations. Have a good day!
English
@FourtyFOURTY @mkhalili @bbcnickrobinson @ZackPolanski Allegations prove nothing because anyone can allege anything.
In this case, Iran has engineered SA to make a bad faith allegation of genocide.
That those involved are now trying to broaden the definition of genocide shows the weakness of the case and their utter desperation.
