If people want to know why Gen X is always mad, it's because we had to replace our record collections with a tape collection and then replace that with a CD collection that we slowly replaced with an MP3 collection and now need a subscription to listen to music.

@OneNickADay @gottlebee I guess the close to $20k that I was paid when I consolidated my TSP, Merrill Lynch and Charles Schwab regular brokerages and JPM Chase IRA wasn't real money….just imaginary?

@gottlebee Robinhood is for kids and beginners, Fidelity is where people with real money invest

I transferred my Robinhood account to Fidelity. Did I make a wrong move?

@DevotedDividend @gottlebee You realize Robinhood is regulated by the SEC/FINRA and carries SIPC insurance just like every other major broker? They are in the S&P500 so they aren't exactly a startup. Go where you want, but don't shit on Robinhood out of some sense of superiority. $HOOD

@gottlebee Nope, I did the same after my portfolio hit $500K+ years back I don't trust $HOOD with big $ personally

As everyone starts talking about the massive fraud here in California...many are taking the state's numbers as factual. No...California did not lose $32 billion in COVID fraud. California has lost more than 100 billion in COVID fraud. Much of it left the state and country.

@KinggTrades You still butt-hurt about this? It was an extraordinary event and the T+1 settlement that Robinhood was a proponent of largely made situations like this incredibly unlikely in the future. Get over it. $hood

Robinhood fucked over so many retail investor back during the GameStop short squeeze. Let’s not forget that.

For those of you not familiar. The A-10 Warthog is the ugliest, most absurdly beautiful killing machine to ever take flight. A flying chunk of titanium molded around a gatlin gun style cannon; the equally absurd 30mm GAU-8. It commands the adoration of troops on the ground as the sound of its unmistakable mating call the “brrrrrrp” overhead means several enemy fighters have been neutralized. It flies low and slow delivering death more intimately than any other fighter jet could fathom. Cloaked in armor, it’s rumored to be able to take damage to 70% of its airframe and still land with ease. It doesn’t need a long or even paved runway. The uppity nerds running the Air Force have decided to “phase them out” this year… yet here they are continuing to “get some”. I personally think that @USMC should take the them over… they fit perfectly in our “take old shit and make it great” culture.

@Braveheart_USA @real_Stephanie It's really not. Try again.

@mattforney @real_Stephanie USAA is now owned by Charles Schwab. Just trying to help.

EXCLUSIVE: an insider at USAA provides footage of the company's recent Diwali event. It looks like a Tim and Eric skit. Remember, while USAA throws parties for Indians, it ignores American holidays and its veteran employees are committing suicide from stress and layoffs.

@megynkelly @Average_NY_Guy Yet you can somehow get away with it? Another opportunity to admit you got it wrong and move on. Of course your pride and arrogance won't allow….so in that case, you can GFY.

@Average_NY_Guy You don’t put another country’s flag on the USA flag, ever. We don’t share it. We treat the flag as inviolate. It’s extremely inappropriate.

Holy shit is this real?

@RepThomasMassie @CarriePrejean1 You think that's something to brag about? What exactly do you support?

I support Carrie Prejean Boller 💯! She stopped by my office today with her husband, and I gave her one of the debt badges that I invented to show my appreciation for her bravery with respect to the White House Religious Freedom Commission. I’m inspired by her resolve.

@RepAngieCraig Take it up with the judge

Denying Liam Ramos and his family asylum is not only cruel, it’s political retribution. This decision should be overturned. Liam’s family came to this country in search of a better life. That’s the American Dream - something the Trump Administration seems to have forgotten. cbsnews.com/minnesota/news…

@KaiMvla @TVGrimReaper AOL was a dial-up (remember that?) internet company buying out a movie studio and cable news network. This merger at least makes sense synergistically and the IP is far more valuable today. Time will tell but those salivating at its demise may be a bit premature.

@TVGrimReaper Paramount Skydance/Warner Bros. Discovery merger makes AOL/TIme Warner merger looks good in comparision.

Paramount/ WBD is going to be an amusing failure. An interesting question is whether it replaces the AOL-Time Warner deal as the go to “biggest deal failure” media reference.

@TVGrimReaper So your thesis is that the Ellison's are investing billions of their own money to turn around and lose it? They will be owner operators which will have them put more skin on the line than any other media company. And all these other investors are along for the ride…because?….

@jokertwothree @RobProvince @JBlunt1018 Yep, Used to have them for home, auto and banking. Don't use them for anything anymore. I know I am just a single datapoint but they have lost a lot of business.

@RobProvince @JBlunt1018 I looked into USAA a while back. They were more expensive than everyone else. I heard that it was worth it because of the service you got. Then I started reading story after story after story of them refusing to pay claims.

HUGE NEWS and honestly, this is long overdue. For the first time in a while, it feels like the left is actually stepping up to push back against the H-1B misinformation and the growing anti-Indian rhetoric online and in real life. Hasan Minhaj just dropped an excellent breakdown on the whole H-1B / “Indian narrative” and it hits on a lot of the misinformation that’s been floating around unchecked. I’m attaching a clip below + the full YouTube link. This matters. For too long, protectionist narratives have dominated the conversation often driven by fear, bad data, or outright misinformation. And it’s had real consequences. It’s time to: — push back on the rhetoric — correct the misunderstandings — stop letting one side control the entire narrative Good to finally see someone with a platform call it out.

@RobProvince @JBlunt1018 USAA lost their soul and sense of mission and purpose over the last decade.

@JBlunt1018 Just cancelled all my USAA polices and credit card because they fired all their US employees and replaced them with foreign labor.

@HoshisBlues @geraldposner @bariweiss Not hard to find articles going back 10 years. Fraud has been a known known for a long time in Minnesota washingtontimes.com/news/2024/aug/… sahanjournal.com/news/autism-ce… action4liberty.com/dhs_not_invest… minnpost.com/good-jobs/2019…

@flankspeed_ @geraldposner @bariweiss Show me an article of news coverage about a discovery of tens, if not hundreds, of fake childcare and hospices reported before Nick.

Seeing a lot of criticism on X about @BariWeiss and CBS following Nick Shirley on this story. Why not credit both? Independent journalists often surface the story. Legacy outlets can bring resources, scale, and verification. That’s not “copying.” It's how investigative journalism is supposed to work

@RyanSaavedra @EHamiltonEsq I still prefer the "Micro Caucus."

@EHamiltonEsq Gonna start calling them "6%"

lmfao

Kathy Hochul to Republicans in 2022: “Just jump on a bus and head down to Florida where you belong, OK? You are not New Yorkers.” Kathy Hochul to Republicans in 2026: “I didn’t mean the rich ones! Come back! Be patriotic New Yorkers! Give me your money!”

@MiragliMike @SquawkCNBC @JoeSquawk How is he wrong?

Watching @SquawkCNBC and there is @JoeSquawk pushing his forever trumper views. “Europe should be grateful for what the US does for it.” It’s a much more enjoyable show when Joe is out. He can be so disrespectful to the guests.
