@PauloMacro You know the funny thing about that screenshot? It was grabbed within 53 seconds of being posted. By an account with 329 followers. That just doesn't seem normal. Unless, @BarakRavid just made it all up, screenshotted and cried wolf. "Sources say"

In the movie Casino, there is a scene where DeNiro fires a floor boss because a slot machine hits a lottery three times in like 30mins. The guy he fires is clearly a moron, but he is connected to the nevada gaming commission so firing him would create a problem. Still, DeNiro can’t hire him back, saying A) Either he was in on the scam or B) he was too dumb to see what was going on Either way he had to go. Here’s the thing about Barak. We know he is intelligent, because he is clever enough to try to deflect the shtstorm his stories have created (with the insider trading and manipulations that a 1st year analyst on a floor would notice) by gaslighting and playing the racism card. So we know it’s not B.

@eersten1 @CBSSportsGolazo He did not! There's clear angles of that. x.com/fchollywood9/s… Also, the ref did not make a move to blow or stop play after Laimer controlled the ball and only blew after Mendes handled it.

@CBSSportsGolazo Laimer used hand to keep possession of ball before Mendes had the upper arm had ball … which is what ref called. the hand ball by Neves is ball kicked to his arm by team mate clearence, therefore not a penalty. see rules. this was one of best refereed games of the tournament.

TWO huge handball shouts from Bayern Munich ✋ The referee gives neither ❌

Naftali Bennett was the artillery officer who massacred 106 women and children in Qana, Lebanon in 1996 - a massacre bin Laden cited in his first declaration of war a couple months later, which convinced Mohamed Atta, future 911 lead hijacker to join al Qaeda.

Posted earlier today: It’s beyond oil. While assessments of the economic fallout from the Middle East War have focused on energy production and shipping, other factors also warrant consideration. They include, as discussed in my latest FT column, the implications for international capital markets: ft.com/content/bdc2ad… #economy #markets #middleeastwar @FT

Advanced Asia + Europe are short oil and oil prices are soaring GCC, who usually run massive surpluses (ie huge creditors to RoW) are having those decimated from SoH closure & decline in tourism revenue US is a *huge* net debtor, requiring external financing Who will fund it?

Is there a SINGLE thing they did not flipflop on?

This is a spicy flavor of cognitive dissonance.

@Piotr__Panasiuk So it's an indirect loan to yacht makers. Wonderful

Ruszyły wypłaty kredytu 90 mld EUR dla Ukrainy! Żona ministra obrony Ukrainy, Fedorowa, nabyła nowy jacht na Lazurowym Wybrzeżu. Jacht o wartości 26 000 000 dolarów został zakupiony wspólnie z inną francuską firmą.

@lucasaganronald He's had enough of stupid questions

HE DIDN’T SAY IT 😭😭😭

@zitoameriki__ @MaxBlumenthal Helma Ahmadizadeh, 10, was killed in a strike that hit a sports facility in the town of Lamerd while it was being used by a women’s volleyball team, killing at least 21 people. x.com/neginbagheri91…

@NOTMONGO @notrfkjr @SenFettermanPA He's an Israel first so he's naturally aligned with the orange blob

@notrfkjr @SenFettermanPA LOLz.. Fetts received his orders… wtf does this admin have on him?

We were there front and center. That venue wasn’t built to accommodate an event with the line of succession for the U.S. government. After witnessing last night, drop the TDS and build the White House ballroom for events exactly like these.

@chamath I hope they impound your crooked ass

The Billionaire Tax is actually an Everyone Tax. The Billionaire Tax is a new tax proposal written by four professors who don't believe in the American dream. Some of them aren’t even American…go figure. Despite its name, it applies to every California resident who currently has assets or ever will. The creators named it the Billionaire Tax so you would get into a froth andwouldn't look closely at what it actually does to you. On page twenty-six, it explains how the government can convert to an Everyone Tax without voter approval. They can also adjust the tax to be a yearly tax, not just one time…again, without your approval. Here's how the tax would work: As a voter, you're being asked to approve a tax that would require you to: 1. list all your assets and the value of each, then submit them to the California Franchise Tax Board. 2. authorize the tax board to appraise your assets and confirm the value of each. 3. pay a penalty of up to forty percent of your tax bill if the board determines your reported value was too low in their opinion. 4. allow the tax board to subpoena your financial records from every one of your financial institutions for auditing. This Everyone Tax runs 34 pages of shifty language describing how the government plans to take your assets. Read the fine print and decide for yourself. If this were truly a billionaire tax, it would be 3 pages. It’s 34 pages so that it can create the mechanisms to steal from all of you.

@BigSrb1389 @SamaHoole You should post your comments behind a paywall, way too funny Spermski

@Kokodima2 @SamaHoole Cope more Azerbaijani.

In 2022 a team of Czech and Montenegrin anthropologists published the most comprehensive height survey ever conducted in the Western Balkans. They measured 47,158 people across Bosnia, Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro, Albania, and Kosovo. The result overturned an assumption that had stood for fifty years. The tallest 18-year-olds in the world are not Dutch. They are from Montenegro. The average 18-year-old male in Montenegro is 182.9 cm. In Dalmatia, 183.7 cm. There is a continuous belt running from the Adriatic coast through Herzegovina into central Montenegro where average male height exceeds 184 cm. In some towns it is over 187 cm. This is the highest mean stature ever documented in any human population. The strange part is that the Balkans are not rich. GDP per capita in Montenegro is roughly a fifth of the Netherlands. Protein intake is well below Western European levels. By every conventional metric, the Western Balkans should be producing average heights similar to Bulgaria or Romania. Instead they are producing the tallest men on earth. The explanation is genetic. Y-chromosome haplogroup I-M170, present in over 70% of men in Herzegovina, correlates with male height across all 55 European and Near Eastern populations the researchers tested. Wherever the haplogroup is common, the men are tall. The haplogroup is descended from the Gravettian culture of the Upper Palaeolithic. The Gravettians were big-game hunters. They specialised, for roughly 15,000 years, in killing mammoth, bison, reindeer, and aurochs across Europe. They ate, in caloric terms, almost exclusively animal products. The most meat-heavy diet documented in the European archaeological record. Hundreds of generations of selection pressure for converting animal protein into skeletal stature. When the megafauna disappeared, most Gravettian populations dispersed and intermarried with incoming farmers from the Near East, who carried different haplogroups associated with shorter stature. The Western Balkans, isolated by the Dinaric Alps, retained an unusually high proportion of the original hunter genetics. The men of Herzegovina are the genetic descendants of mammoth hunters who spent the Ice Age eating fat and meat in quantities no modern population approaches. They are still tall, on a sub-optimal modern diet, because the genes were selected for height by 15,000 years of animal-based eating. If their nutrition reaches Northern European levels, the prediction is that average male height in central Herzegovina will reach 190 cm within two generations. Six foot three. As an average. The Dutch built their height in 150 years on dairy. The men of the Dinaric Alps built theirs over 15,000 years on mammoth. And the variable, in both cases, was the animal.

@zebulgar The retardation in this post is too funny.

The doomers have doubted our country many times Every time we prevail We beat the Russians to the moon The Soviet Union collapsed The Chinese economy stagnated while we rocket forward & birth silicon gods We will beat the Chinese to building a lunar base Pax Americana 🇺🇸🇺🇸

@BigSrb1389 @vijay_1768 @SamaHoole You started with shaky genetics and ended up relocating an entire population to Azerbaijan. We’ve officially left “wrong” and entered “fan fiction.”

@vijay_1768 @SamaHoole No. It’s because “Albanians” actually come from the mountains of Azerbaijan and Turkey

@BigSrb1389 @SamaHoole Confidently wrong on history, genetics, and statistics in one sentence. Efficient, I’ll give you that.

@SamaHoole Wait a minute. Illyrians were said to be the tallest and I thought Albanians were “Illyrian” lol. How are they the shortest people in Europe then? Albanians also have the lowest IQ in Europe.
