@business Becoming?

US allies have privately warned President Trump that his war was quickly becoming a disaster bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

@BarackObama I remember it well, i was in my 20s as a healthy young person and my premium doubled

The day the Affordable Care Act passed was one of my proudest moments as president, because it meant that millions of Americans would have access to health care, some for the first time. The ACA also prevented insurance companies from denying people with pre-existing conditions coverage, allowed young people under the age of 26 to remain on their parents’ plan, expanded Medicaid, and so much more. But the ACA was always meant to be a first step. We still have to do more to expand access and make health care more affordable for everyone.

@masterminedusa It does not have a right to my tax dollars

Jews demand you agree "Israel has a right to exist" because they know it doesn't. Just like the phrase "black lives matter".

@The_Real_Fly Trump cheats on all his wives

Trump on Joe Kent: "I'm not a fan of the guy ... His wife was killed. He remarried fairly quickly."

@E055Michel1842 @zerohedge Tough to even trade it.

@SotCommonwealth @zerohedge That’s why i decided to be in gold and out of equities ( even though it has its fair share of manipulation) This has become a trader’s market not an investor one

This is the third Monday in a row futures tumble overnight than blastoff on headlines/chatter during the day.

Tough to invest in manipulated markets

@zerohedge Dude has zero problem lying

*TRUMP: WE'LL GET TOGETHER WITH IRAN PROBABLY BY PHONE

@NavyStrang 1945 america was the largest shipbuilder in the world by far

If you want to bring shipbuilding to the U.S. at the scale of China or South Korea or even Japan its not only going to take massive capital investment, but you also have to fundamentally change the way these businesses operate. You have to change the workforce. You have to change transportation. Change neighborhoods. Change waterfronts. This isn't a money problem, it is whole of system problem.

@MaxDieselRI @scottlincicome @cpgrabow @CatoInstitute You know nothing about us shipbuilders. Lets start there.

@SotCommonwealth @scottlincicome @cpgrabow @CatoInstitute US shipbuilders don't build freighters and tankers and haven't for decades so what does the Jones Act protect?

"You can't make this stuff up" - @cpgrabow #EndTheJonesAct

@cpgrabow @scottlincicome @CatoInstitute You know nothing about ships or ship building. Get out of your office and talk to actual sailors or ship builders. Seems like you want the chinese to dump on the market like they have been for 30 years. Very suspicious. Thats not free trade.

@SotCommonwealth @scottlincicome @CatoInstitute It has been destroyed, and the Jones Act is complicit.

@Osint613 Can we get someone else to do the negotiating

BREAKING 🔴 According to Axios: The Trump administration has begun initial discussions on what peace talks with Iran might look like, involving Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. No direct U.S./Iran contact in recent days. Egypt, Qatar and the U.K. have passed messages between the two sides, with Egypt and Qatar telling the U.S. and Israel that Iran is interested in negotiating. The U.S. wants six commitments from Iran: 1. No missile program for five years 2. Zero uranium enrichment 3. Decommissioning of bombed reactors at Natanz, Isfahan and Fordow 4. Strict outside observation of centrifuges and related nuclear machinery 5. Regional arms control treaties with a missile cap no higher than 1,000 6. No financing for proxies — Hezbollah, Houthis, Hamas "Our view is we've stunted Iran's growth," a U.S. official told Axios.

@hkuppy This is the dumbest take i have seen today. Congrats to you

Trump can TACO, burrito and chimichanga, but nothing will open Hormuz unless Iran wants it open. We can’t go home with Hormuz shut and missiles raining down on our friends. The only way out, is through Iran.. As scary as that sounds, I think we’re going to mobilize serious boots on the ground. That takes 6+ months. No one’s portfolio is positioned for half a year of this chaos…

@ChrisVanHollen Please end this war!

I will not vote for another dime for Trump's war. This war is making us less safe. It's taken 13 American lives. Killed thousands of civilians. And is costing billions in taxpayer dollars. The best way to protect our troops, save lives, & end this war is to cut off funding.

@disclosetv Thats crazy

@politvidchannel Go for it!!

BREAKING: Democrats are planning "Project 2029," a plan to jail Trump, his family, and members of the current Trump administration.

Remember when trump said the war would be over soon

@zerohedge If it is so simple why doesnt he do it himself

Trump calls NATO "cowards" and "a paper tiger"
