    Unless you are mind reader, you are guessing, you don't know what he was thinking or pointing out when he retweeted that post. And regardless of what his motivations for retweeting it, his repost of it, in conjunction with his current position is making a comparison of US public sector workers to people who carried out some of the most heinous crimes in recorded history. That in itself makes him unfit to be in a position where he is deciding their worthiness to work for the govt.

    It worked for me. I got lazy and hungry the past few years. I’m 5’10 and on December 1st I weighed 183. I got rid of empty and liquid calories and made my self weight train every other day. I weighed in this morning at 164

    I actually get what he’s saying and he’s not defending Hitler or the Holocaust. He’s pointing out that one man couldn’t have carried it out; it took the German bureaucracy, He is also implying that the larger the state, the more oppressive the state, hence the need for severe cuts to the public sector even beyond the question of waste (which is, prior to this tweet, the main justification Musk has offered for his actions.) This is an ideological argument, and from a libertarian standpoint I understand it. But I think it’s misapplied to our society. While our federal government has proven to be wasteful at times, it’s not been oppressive (despite Kafkaesque anecdotes to the contrary). We are not Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union.

    There is however a country out there in which the vast majority of its citizens DO wish to be the 51st state: it’s called Puerto Rico.

    A great book. Have read a bunch of his golf ones that are also good. He was a classic old school prickly guy who could spin a yarn.

    The guy who obsesses about him suddenly forgot about him? The guy who posts about him constantly? Always has to reply to him? Holds a complete dossier on his life including an archive of posts across multiple forums and apps, forgot about him? You're a funny guy. Pathetic, but funny.

    Watching Maddow is like watching a "One trick Pony" with Bell's Palsy. The show is the same night after night. What worked in 2016 is not working anymore.

    Dude is like a fart in a crowded room. Can't escape it when it happens, but once it's gone easily forgettable. Like I said, good riddance. Back on topic, you're a serial reporter and slap fight queen with countless bannings. Squid has gotten emoji, words and avatars banned from his toddler tantrums. Too close to call imo.

    That's smart advise for novice investors. Weaklings and those that don't know any better might get weak stomachs and panic sell. That's what's happening right now. Don't be a weakling and panic sell. If you're not smart enough to understand what's happening just live your life and forget about it for a while. Turn off CNN and go outside, everything will be fine. Otherwise you might find yourself posting nonsense and crying about OMB online from your work from home dead end job. Suddenly you'll realize you're poor and have lost at life.

    Yeah, I could definitely see this happening. Raiders have a QB in Geno Smith for probably a couple of years and I think they might grab one of the rookies in the 2nd or 3rd round. They don't need a TE with budding superstar Brock Bowers so the Raiders need weapons on offense. Clearly Jeanty is the top runningback in this draft class. The Raiders are going to have to put points on the board in a division with 3 other pretty good teams. Broncos should be better and if the Chargers land one of the 2 top TEs they'll be much better. So as I look.at it now the Raiders are on the bottom of this division so they need an offensive player who's going to help stay relevant, if that's possible, in this tough division. Enter ASHTON JEANTY. If they draft him then they'll at least be able to provide better competition with the Broncos,Chargers and Chiefs. Plus grabbing Jeanty means that Dallas can.scrap their notion of getting him. I guess that's why they brought Javonte Williams in knowing that Jeanty would be gone when they pick at 12. So if the Raiders have any aspirations of trying to keep pace with the other 3 teams in their division then I think it's imperative that they draft Ashtkn Jeanty with their first pick at #6.

    You really don’t understand liberals at all do you? Not everything is transactional. Liberals are opposed to this because the Canadian people don’t want it.

    I'm learning more from this thread than I realized.... one surprise is how many people heard of this and know WTF they're talking about. I could stand to lose about 80 pounds. Since I'm always behind the times in all things anyways, I'll give you guys five years to see how much cancer you get and maybe look into this myself.

    Calorie deficit google TDEE calculator. Plug in your height, weight, age, and activity level. It will spit out a caloric number for you to stay where you are. Consume 500 calories less than that number per day and you will lose 1lb a week.

    This simply isn't true. You are getting your info from left leaning media that hates Trump. We have had a couple of very good years in the market and we came into this year a little overvalued. Pullbacks of 10% are normal and the underlying fundamentals of the economy such as the labor market are strong. Corporate earnings are expected to grow a healthy 8% and the AI boom will continue to be a growth catalyst. Volatility was expected with the initiation of Tariffs but they are more of a negotiating tactic and I do not believe they will be on long enough to cause any sustained economic damage. The Atlanta GDPNow report you seem to love showing estimated -2.4% for 1st quarter is severely flawed. Yes, consumer spending was down in January but that is normal after December as it was down last January as well. More importantly, there was a surge in gold imports that GDPNow counted that actual GDP does not count. That alone would increase the estimate by 2%. Add in that with impending tariffs there was a huge surge in imports in January which distorted the trade imbalance and negatively affected the estimate. Finally, the March 6th Labor report showed resilience in the Labor market and will add another .5% not reflected in that estimate. In summary, the media and apparently liberals like you are assuming the worst with the tariffs. Allowing other countries to apply tariffs on us for years made no sense and the reciprocal tariffs seem logical right?

    Great read. Thanks for the link. The events of the past two weeks have shaken my political paradigm to the core.
