@toberrrrrr @atrupar @grok Fucking grok retards

Q: The premier of Greenland said today, 'We prefer to stay with Denmark.' TRUMP: Who said that? Q: The premier of Greenland TRUMP: Well, that's their problem. I disagree with him. I don't know who he is. Don't know anything about him. But that's gonna be a big problem for him.

@sircryptotips We don't want Russia or China as a neighbour...Russia is almost within swimming distance of Alaska, while Greenland is more than 2000km away

Get Ready For War👇 Trump just said: "We are GOING to do something on Greenland, whether they like it or not" "If we don't do it the easy way, we're going to do it the hard way" Remember that central banks print more currency during war than any other time.

@NickSzabo4 Nick since when you went from being the cool kid to parroting retarted shit like this. The main issue here is not "the accident by itself", but the premises that allowed such a situation to unfold in the first place, and you should know it.

Leftism is the pretense of empathy, devoid of its reality. Anybody with empathy would understand that the agent is not looking at the tires and calculating where scientifically one should expect the car to go. He's looking at the driver and observing the current direction of the car: headed towards him.

@GStanley71 @Vtxt21 @jimstewartson @grok Or a hooker

@Vtxt21 @jimstewartson @grok Turns out he's racist too

.@grok please remove the pedophile, the hooker, and the racist from this photo.

@Captain_0f_Alts Dude that's insane

Between the wife’s corp and us, we have paid close to $100k in medical insurance over the last 4 years without ever seeing a doctor…

@RealNotSol @DaleboutWilliam @redpilldispensr @LionelMedia The building was held up by steel columns, not concrete. Concrete was used primarily for the floor slabs and had no critical structural role.

@DaleboutWilliam @redpilldispensr @LionelMedia No one wants to admit the truth the concrete was subpar. The building most likely would have survived the impact if the concrete wasnt faulty. Why no one but me has ever talked about this is strange.

9/11: A quarter of a century later and the government still can’t explain how steel columns were launched outwards from the Twin Towers and impaled themselves into a building hundreds of feet away.

@piscinas55 @grok please confirm the statement above

GROK confirme cette bizarrerie. Oui, il y a bien une liaison directe : la synagogue orthodoxe Beit Yossef Crans-Montana et le bar Le Constellation se trouvent dans le même bâtiment, à l'adresse Rue Centrale 35, 3963 Crans-Montana (Suisse).

@Captain_0f_Alts You could add to your diet a few dishes that require lots of eggs like carbonara (the italian way not the american), zabaglione, etc. All delicious

I need ideas for eggs at this point. Wife did a batch of pickled eggs that turned out great. We are getting enough to share with our daughter’s house but not really enough to make it worth selling any. What do?

@quietcoyote99 @NuryVittachi Sanctions only apply to companies from countries who signed such sanctions, and China did not

@NuryVittachi This ship isn’t sanctioned…… But the OIL is sanctioned!!! Next…..

BREAKING NEWS: The US seized a ship belonging to a China-based oil company, it was reported today. The Chinese ship, called Centuries, was snatched in an operation using military helicopters which illegally landed US Coast Guard officers on board. In a classic “piracy on the high seas” operation, the armed officers went to the ship’s bridge, took the crew hostage, and gained control of the vessel. The ship is NOT on the list of US sanctioned ships, the New York Times reported this morning. This makes the seizure illegal under US law as well as international law. “The ship is flagged, insured, and unsanctioned — proving conclusively that the US couldn't care less about so-called ‘international law’,” Will Schryver, a popular US geopolitical commentator, said today. The ship transports Venezuelan crude oil to China for refining. The US is expected to now steal both ship and cargo, taking it to a US port, as happened with an oil tanker called Skipper, a week ago. US government and media are using the word “confiscate” because it implies punishment for wrongdoing – except there was no wrongdoing. The ship was licenced and flagged and engaged in legal international business. The move follows a statement by President Donald Trump that Venezuela’s oil was stolen from the United States. “We want it back. They took it from us illegally,” the president said. This is despite the fact that oil would have been formed in the Mesozoic age, which ended 66 million years ago.

@adam3us Can you please elaborate? A computer magnitudes faster than the current, could, theoretically, find a private key for an address. Isn't that the risk?

pro-tip for quantum FUD promoters. bitcoin does not use encryption. get your basics right or it's a tell.

@Techemist @JordanW18571371 @BGatesIsaPyscho Don't worry about it, all these headlines may give the wrong impression, but Australia is generally still a more welcoming and safe place than the US.

@JordanW18571371 @BGatesIsaPyscho Still a risk at this point. "We saw your social media history, please come with us"

🚨🇦🇺 Australian Government to introduce strictest ‘Hate Speech Laws’ ever seen “Increase penalties for hate speech” “Making hate an aggregating factor when adjudicating crimes online” “Hate based on Race or advocating racial supremacy” Listen to PM Anthony Albanese - bringing in tighter speech laws, as well as gun reform in the wake of the Bondi Beach shootings.

@inversebrah Jeez, that's brutal

10k lieks off the cuff liek its nothin'

@SCHIZO_FREQ This is how I'm still married, zero communication whatsoever, besides the most superficial stuff, like "do you have a coffee?"->"yes"

Have a friend who was a perma-bachelor till a few years ago when he magically learned how to have a perfect relationship Asked him what changed “I no longer believe in the hoax of verbal communication Whenever she asks one of those questions designed to get me to say something she’ll bring up resentfully every 2 weeks for the rest of my life, I just refuse to respond” “What made you change?” “Watch a couple that’s been happily married for 30+ years and you realize they feel zero meed to share their every thought. If one of them seems like they’re getting mad they’ll usually just leave the room” Lmao

@JonnyMoeTrades I always found it very normal to sit on the floor to watch a movie, regardless of gender

Can we talk about the phenomenon of females voluntarily choosing to sit on the floor

@PeterSchiff @grok tell me in 30 words or less WTF is peter on about this time

I meant that I would do it today, Nov. 24th. So I'll do it tomorrow instead.

The Fannie & Freddie Boondoggle: The Biggest Wealth Transfer From Taxpayers to Hedge Funds in U.S. History @BillAckman is pushing a plan to restructure Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and “release” them from conservatorship. He claims it will modernize the housing finance system and create a huge win for taxpayers. That is simply not true. It is a carefully engineered boondoggle that would hand Ackman and other hedge fund investors a massive windfall while leaving taxpayers with zero upside and exposing the U.S. housing market to even greater danger than before the 2008 financial crisis. The government cannot IPO Fannie or Freddie. To do that it would have to publicly disclose whether their debt is guaranteed or not. If it admits the debt is not guaranteed, mortgage rates would rise and home prices would fall, something Trump will not allow. If it explicitly guarantees the debt, Congress must approve it, and that will never happen. Ackman’s plan avoids this entire political problem by keeping the GSEs in conservatorship so the government never has to admit the truth. Nothing real is reformed. The guarantee remains. The public is kept in the dark. And private investors are given a path to cash out. The plan is not privatization. It is fake privatization. Before 2008 the guarantee behind Fannie and Freddie was implicit. After the bailout it became explicit in practice. Ackman wants the GSEs to remain government backed while distributing dividends to private shareholders. That is the most extreme form of moral hazard: private profits paired with fully socialized losses. Underwriting standards will weaken. Risk will rise. The mortgage bubble will grow even larger. And because the guarantee is now unmistakably real, the next collapse will be even more devastating. The truth is the best long-term solution for both the housing market and the broader economy is to shut the GSEs down entirely and get the government out of mortgage finance. That would bring real market discipline back into housing and end this cycle of moral hazard once and for all. But that solution is politically untenable because it would create short-term pain. Home prices would fall, affordability would improve, and the correction would trigger losses for lenders and homeowners who depend on inflated valuations. Given that political reality, the status quo is far superior to what Ackman is proposing. It is the lesser of the two evils. His plan does not reform the system. It simply inflates a bigger bubble, increases the risks, and hands hedge funds a windfall at taxpayer expense. But it gets even worse. Ackman wants to slash the capital requirement for the GSEs from the current 4.5% of their guarantee book to just 2.5%. This is one of the most dangerous parts of the entire proposal. The 4.5% standard is already low compared to what a normal financial institution would need to survive a downturn. Cutting it nearly in half virtually guarantees that even a mild decline in home prices will wipe out the GSEs’ capital cushion. Lower capital means higher return on equity, which drives the share price higher and enriches Ackman and other investors. But it leaves the housing market far more fragile than before the 2008 crash. It forces the GSEs to take on more risk to generate enough earnings to justify their valuations. And because the guarantee is explicit, there is no market discipline left. The GSEs take the risks and taxpayers take the losses. Right now taxpayers benefit from every dollar of profit the GSEs earn because all profits are retained and invested in Treasuries. Ackman’s plan changes that. The first phase does not alter anything because dividends to common shareholders cannot be paid until the GSEs rebuild capital. During this phase taxpayers still indirectly benefit from retained earnings just as they do today. The second phase is where taxpayers start losing money. Ackman owns junior preferred stock and its entire value depends on dividends resuming. Once the Senior Preferred is forgiven, the junior preferred dividends begin flowing again. That money is currently retained and invested in Treasuries, but under Ackman’s plan it goes straight to private investors. This is the first real wealth transfer from taxpayers to hedge funds. The third phase is the most dangerous. Once the GSEs are deemed fully capitalized, common dividends will resume. Treasury will technically own nearly 80% of the common stock after exercising its warrants, but it will not receive dividends on that stake. If it did, it would reignite the political firestorm that surrounded the Net Worth Sweep and hand Trump’s critics an easy attack. Treasury will therefore likely hold its 80% only on paper. That means private shareholders, who own only 20% of the company, will effectively receive 100% of the real cash profits. The government’s stake becomes economically meaningless. It produces no dividends, no cash, and no realized benefit of any kind. It exists solely for political optics so Trump can claim he created a multibillion dollar paper gain that cannot and will not ever be realized. In effect the GSEs return to the same economic structure that existed before conservatorship, except now it is worse. Private investors once again receive all the profits. Taxpayers once again bear all the losses. But the moral hazard is far greater because the guarantee is explicit and undeniable rather than implicit and theoretical. The GSEs will be encouraged to take even more risk because their earnings must support dividend payments rather than building real capital. That accelerates the expansion of the housing bubble and ensures that when the downturn arrives, the capital cushion will be thin, the losses will be enormous, and the government will be forced to step in again. When that happens the government’s 80% stake will collapse to zero along with the private shares. All of the paper profits Trump once bragged about will be wiped out. The dividends paid to private shareholders will be gone. The junior preferreds that were revived will be worthless again. And taxpayers will absorb 100% of the losses. The only people who will have walked away with real money are the hedge funds who got in cheap and cashed out during the brief window when the stock price was artificially inflated by the cancellation of the Senior Preferred. Ackman claims this plan is the first step toward true privatization. That is nonsense. If the GSEs are not ready to be privatized now after sixteen years of conservatorship they never will be. Ackman knows this. He will be long gone by the time investors discover that the guarantee will never be removed and that real privatization is politically impossible. His goal is simple: get the Senior Preferred wiped out, get dividends restarted on the shares he owns, push the common stock price higher, and sell his shares before the next crisis hits. The burden of the collapse will fall entirely on taxpayers. This is not reform. It is not modernization. It is not a win for taxpayers. It is a massive wealth transfer disguised as policy. It ensures private investors receive one hundred percent of the profits while taxpayers remain exposed to 100% of the losses. The next bailout will be larger than the last because the moral hazard will be greater, the bubble will be bigger, and the government guarantee will be absolute. This plan creates the most dangerous and irresponsible structure imaginable. It benefits hedge funds and politicians, and it leaves American taxpayers holding the bag. I’ll be hosting an X Space on Monday, February 24th at 9:00 AM ET, to explain how this plan works, why it puts taxpayers at extreme risk, and how hedge funds stand to gain billions at the public’s expense. I will answer questions, and expose the full truth behind this so-called recap and release. Anyone concerned about the housing market and the future of American finance should be there.

@crypto_bitlord7 It's kinda weird how most major alts are holding up so well, normally when btc dips like this they all go down the gutter very quick, but this time they barely budged.

This isn’t even a proper dip. Trust me this is stability. A nice steady and controlled dump. You can start to panic when we hit circuit breakers back to back and exchanges shut down. Imagine you can’t place orders, withdrawals are halted and it’s complete lockdown. Buy that.

@adamscochran Shit, are you saying that now I must remove my new swastika from my boat?

Coast Guard claimed that new policy wasn’t real. Then claimed it wasn’t going into effect due to pushback. And now has made a new policy specifically to over rule the policy which they claim wasn’t real. At least we can agree swastikas should be banned.

@Darrenlautf Sir this is a Wendy's
