@PeteButtigieg Still got more than 2 1/2 years to go. Check back then

The president’s number one promise was to drive inflation down. Instead, he drove it up.

@jdawsey1 @DougKass I’ve been to the winery, it’s nice.

Here’s invite for Trump’s $1 million per person fundraiser tonight, per person who received. (Names and contact info of Trump group’s staff members redacted.)

@BreitbartNews The main reason he’s running for Congress is to get the million back

George Conway fights back tears as he recalls how he decided to give nearly $1 million to Biden's Victory Fund in 2024 — which would have otherwise gone to his children. He says he started crying and had to pull his car over. "I want my kids to inherit a democracy."

@ptuomov @verdadcap I propose 100% energy, that worked really well YTD

THE NEW 60/40 PORTFOLIO Due to the increased stock/bond correlation, I propose a new 60/40 institutional benchmark portfolio. Instead of being 60% stocks and 40% bonds, the new portfolio is 60% stocks, 60% bonds, and -20% in privates. The 20% private investments short position is implemented by buying CDS protection on leveraged buyout companies’ covenant-light debt and shorting the private-equity and private-credit manager’s publicly traded stock. Would have worked YTD!

@carlquintanilla You are embarrassing yourself.

Broken man.

@Mericamemed @BillAckman @DavidSacks

Now this is one wild story. The amount of lawsuits coming down the pipeline with stories like this is going to be astronomical.

@GovPressOffice You misspelled dementia

RT if you miss having a President with empathy

@C__Herridge @DowdEdward @SecWar @DougKass

NEW: @SecWar has asked Gen. Randy George, the Army Chief of Staff, to step down. A covid vaccine injured soldier says Gen. George "ignored" her case until our investigation exposed military records linking her three heart attacks to the mRNA vaccine. At the age of 24, @StancikKaroline’s heart injuries were so severe she needed a pacemaker. During the Biden Administration, Stancik was wrongly throw off orders and lost her military medical insurance. After our investigation, Stancik was finally medically retired and received some back pay. Stancik says she is still working with the @DeptVetAffairs to resolve her medical debt.

@DougKass @TheStreetPro Doug, Congress has been daytrading forever on inside information and nobody seems to care

@thestreetpro Iran, Insider Trader? Equities ripped right before the public announcement of a possible drafting of a deal in which Iran and Oman may be establishing protocol to "monitor" the Strait of Hormuz's traffic.   Iran must have joined the ranks of insider traders! With "everyone" now trading on inside information... what a confidence builder for the markets. (Tongue in cheek!) @tomkeene @CGasparino @business @guyadami @ScottWapnerCNBC @carlquintanilla @WhitneyTilson @andrewrsorkin @BeckyQuick @pboockvar @SquawkCNBC @CNBCFastMoney @HalftimeReport @Convertbond @gnoble79 @KeithMcCullough @SamofAmerica @HedgeyeDJ @dougkass

@HeathMayo Magazine covers, seriously?

The United States was never a “dead and crippled country,” Donald. When you took office, our economy was the envy of the world. This was the Economist cover in October 2024. Don’t lie.

@carlquintanilla Carl, if you watch Trump speech tonight, what makes you think he’s broken?

Broken man.

@RichardHaass NATO is like the 25 year-old kid living in your basement playing video games and not paying rent. Time for them to figure shit out for themselves.

I don't know what if anything Pres Trump will say about NATO tonight, but the damage is already done. The reliability at the core of this or any alliance is gone. Europeans no longer have confidence in the American pledge to come to their defense.

@Scaramucci Please get back to running your fund

After years of telling everybody else how to run the country and months of deliberation, I have a special announcement: I’m running for President of the United States in 2028. I am aware of what happened the last time I worked in the White House. But I do believe I can help guide this country in the right direction. Join me and help me heal America. Mooch 2028 🇺🇸

@JavierBlas Curious

In a vote earlier today, Italian lawmakers have formally approved to delay the closure of the country's coal-fired power stations until 2038.

@TheDemCoalition Amazing what you can do if you pay people

@HeidiBachram @BillAckman @WhitneyTilson

If your anti-fascist march has people holding the image of the Ayatollah who slaughtered thousands of peaceful protesters then you’re on a fascist march.

@jason_meister @BillAckman @WhitneyTilson

Imagine throwing a “No Kings” protest after your party refused to hold a primary, coronated Kamala without a single vote, sued to keep RFK Jr. off the ballot, and attempted to remove Trump from state ballots only after your illegal lawfare scheme failed. If there was a modern day monarchy in America there would only be one party you could point to. The Democrats.

@Doranimated @BillAckman @jmurtazashvili @WhitneyTilson

The world is truly upside down! The Washington Post has published a brilliant article, written by, get this, a professor! To give you some flavor, here are a few choice lines by @jmurtazashvili: 1) "We are living through the first alt-war: a conflict in which the war fought online and the war fought in reality have diverged so completely that they might as well be happening on different planets. It’s not that people lack information, it’s more that they are constructing an entirely different alternate reality — one that confirms what they already believe." 2) "What worries me more than the fake videos are the people who cannot fathom that this war is going well for the United States, for Israel and maybe even for the long-suffering people of Iran. The strategic picture is more favorable than the online narrative suggests." 3) "Two weeks into the war, I watch otherwise reasonable analysts sprint to catastrophe. Former officials, thinktank scholars, credentialed professionals who are supposed to know how to read a conflict. Within days they had written the obituary: quagmire, overreach, disaster." 4) "The liberal internationalist left and the isolationist right — two camps that have agreed on almost nothing for decades — have suddenly found themselves in lockstep, racing to declare the war a failure before it had barely begun. This is the new blob: not the old foreign-policy establishment that the term originally described but a new amalgamation that has arrived at the same conclusion from opposite directions. Together they are the most powerful engine of the alt-war." The truth. In the mainstream media. By a professor. And written well. Four things I thought I'd never see again in my lifetime.

@SenMarkKelly And he’s now working with Trump’s kids.

General CQ Brown is a dedicated military officer, combat veteran and was a very effective Chaiman of the Joint Chiefs. Tonight, Trump is purging decades of experience from the highest ranks of our military for no good reason. This is disrespectful to the service and sacrifice of everyone who’s put their life on the line for our country. The military must be above politics.

@steve_hanke Of course, he supports Bernie Sanders

Distinguished UChicago Prof. John Mearsheimer on the war in Iran:  “We’re stuck in a war that we [the US & Israel] can’t win and that has the potential to do enormous damage to the international economy.”
