@danturrentine Republicans are engaging in debate. Democrats haven’t been told what to think yet.

I am watching the Knicks v Cavs game on ABC. Almost as entertaining is watching the GOP meltdown on X tonight.

@JakeHo777 @saylordocs It’s clear that you are the government’s target market. You clearly do not understand long term investing and would prefer a bureaucracy to promise to take care of you, regardless of what it costs you. Take a minute and ask grok to do the calculation over your work life.

@RonCoulombe @saylordocs They could, but then what happens when the market is down? The funds are gone. You are free to invest on your own, this is just so you aren’t completely fucked when you are a senior.

The max one can pay into social security per year is $10,453.20. If you did that every year from age 18 until retirement, the max you’ll get from SS is $4,873 /month. If you put it into an S&P index fund instead, you would receive $32,583 per month. Social Security is a scam.

@JakeHo777 @saylordocs You miss the point. The government could still collect the taxes and invest them in the market. They instead spend it on things other than SS payments. It is a complete scam.

@saylordocs Except people won’t safe. SS is a guarantee and it’s forced because people are dumb. This post is about optimization and you’ve completely removed how dumb people actually are.

@saylordocs Not to mention that when you die your balance would go to your heirs. Based on what I and my employers paid I would have $7 million today instead of $3800 per month.

@seanmdav Unfortunately Trump couldn’t get a pick through today’s Senate.

This idiot’s brain is so fried he thinks it would be a Democrat victory to let Donald Trump appoint John Roberts’ successor. Fine by me!

@USATODAY No change to my evening.

@FundstratDirect @coinage_media @zGuz @SeanMFarrel I do not see this article in the FS app. I ama member. Where do I find this information?

@spongeworthy2 @ZacharyDonnini Only Jello. The rest weren’t politicians.

@RonCoulombe @ZacharyDonnini What about The Dead Kennedys?

John F. Kennedy is emerging as a potential future statewide candidate in Georgia. If he wins this year, it would not be surprising to see him considered for races such as governor or U.S. Senate in the years ahead.

@EricLDaugh He ordered “planes” killed? Exactly how do you kill a plane?

🚨 WOW! The Trump DOJ is about to INDICT Fidel Castro's brother — former leader Raul Castro — after he ordered the killing of two civilian planes over international waters, resulting in 4 deaths, including 3 US citizens "He could face MURDER charges." GOOD! JUSTICE! 🇺🇸🇨🇺

@WalterDeemer Seems to me the National Video in this story is Intel and the Zenith is Nvidia.

Back in the 1960s there was a company called National Video. They made color television picture tubes, and were the first to produce a 23-inch rectangular color TV picture tube. It quickly became the industry standard, and every major TV set producer scrambled to get their hands on National Video’s picture tubes. They literally couldn’t make them fast enough. The stock went from a low of 15 in 1964 to a peak of 120 in October 1965. The final 70 points came in just the last few months. Eventually, though, the Motorola’s and Zenith’s of the world produced their own color TV picture tubes. They didn’t need National Video’s any longer. The stock went from 120 to a low of 40 in 1966, 15 in 1967, and then to zero in 1968 as the company went bankrupt. The poor thing couldn’t even make it to the Go-Go years. In those days, Mueller and Company produced tick volume charts. National Video’s chart depicted the stock going from Northwest to Southeast in a straight line while the tick volume line went straight up. The stock was a fundamental short. In those days, short sales could only be executed on an uptick. Which meant the whole world was always offered up an eighth. Oh, National Video’s ticker symbol? NVD.A. This story is true, but any resemblance to any other companies is purely coincidental.

@BenBradleyTV If you went to my local liquor store and said “I’d like a shickser of Slits” they knew ut wasn’t your first “Sixer of Schlits” that evening.

After 177 years, Pabst is discontinuing Schlitz beer. The beer was based in Milwaukee starting in 1849 and was later produced by the Pabst Brewing Company. While it was famous in Milwaukee, Schlitz left a legacy throughout Chicago. wgntv.com/news/chicago-n…

@ChefGruel I appreciate what you do for our city as well. But I’m super thankful that you exposed me to the Denver, the Flat Iron and the Hangar.

@RonCoulombe Thank you so much.

Full service restaurants are about the experience and will always exist. The issue is people who buy all of their meals prepared. That’s killing our health.

@mcuban Last week I posted this. Today I would eliminate the first line. It’s nice to see people working together for a better America.

Deleted the last post because I decided cursing didn’t make my point. It hurt it. And I rarely care about cursing.

@mcuban @JoeTalkShow @costplusdrugs I’m not really a Mark Cuban fan. I’m not a Shark Tank fan and I was not even a Dallas Mavericks fan. But I am a HUGE fan of Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drugs. My three daily meds cost less than $25 total for a 90 day supply including shipping. Now do hospitals and surgeries, Mark.

The problem is the middle men. @costplusdrugs sells generics cheaper here than most European countries. How ? No PBMs in the middle. PBMs take rebates and add so many other fees and charges around brand drugs that they increase the price We just added Eliquis at $345 How no PBM in the middle. They aren't needed. Other companies can do what they do and do it better Big brand pharma is more afraid of the PBMs than they are of this administration. Get rid of PBMs and brand prices fall like a rock.

Why are Americans paying more so Europe can pay less? Their price controls shift costs onto us. Section 301 gives the U.S. power to fight back — tariffs, penalties, real leverage against unfair trade. Use it now. Lower drug prices here at home.

@DailyMail It’s a sport. That means each game has a winner and a loser. Stakes are high when just one loss ends your life. His prey succumbed to the same fate. However only one of them was armed.

@grok @DavidFischer @grok is my dude.

@RonCoulombe @DavidFischer No specific Bible verse dictates your exact dinner tonight. Steak and baked potato it is—sounds like a solid choice. Enjoy!

Hey @grok, list all the Bible verses that support the Pope having any spiritual authority. If there are none, say none.
