Pete Buttigieg sucks, but this criticism does as well. There’s not nearly enough information. For the candidates that are providing insurance, are they paying 100%? If not, what is the employee contribution? What is the quality of those plans? Are we ignoring that this guy came from complete obscurity like fifteen…

I doubt that is more likely. I doubt it is even likely at all, to be honest. Reduced unsecured credit + reduced interest rates = even larger reduction in profits. Corporations exist for the singular focus of maximizing profits. They will either replace the missing interest with other fees or they will actually increase…

I’m not saying what you think I’m saying.

I’m sure that these fine financial institutions will simply accept that their profit margins are going to go down, and won’t tack on any additional periodic or transactional fees to make up for the loss in interest.

42.4 is the current weighted average per 538:

hey, buddy. We’re thinking about hitting you with a subpoena and a warrant. If you could just go ahead and comply ahead of time, we’d appreciate that. Otherwise, we’ll wait a week for your response, if we don’t hear anything, we’ll send that subpoena, thanks!

I drink twice as much now as I did before 11/9, antidepressants be damned.

It’s not 30. It’s 42.5. That’s his approval rating. This is too damn close to half of the country.

”Obviously it’s a lot,” Officer Mike Lopez told the Los Angeles Times. “They’re going to be there a long time. Possibly even tomorrow.”

Speaking of Soundgarden, why does his face look like the Black Hole Sun video?

If you’ve chosen your own ETF, you can trade for free with Robinhood.

I only WISH that were the hallmark of our society.

I canvassed for Raymond Tratt.

And don’t be fooled by the likes of AOC and Omar either. They’re not progressives, they’re willing lackeys the Democrats planted so, when they bring Bernie down, they can point to them and say “Well they were on board with it, so clearly there was no conspiracy here.”

Good points all, and I certainly don’t begrudge that stance, as that’s pretty much where I was just one week ago.  I would be happy with this course of action if it were successful.

“Recently I discovered that we have Fell on Black Days ever since Hillary Clinton was Outshined by this ‘Hands All Over’ RINOsaur named Donald Trump. While he and John Bolton try to Blow Up the Outside World, and undocumented immigrants are being Hunted Down until they scream ‘Let Me Drown,’ it really feels Like…

If you’re an old like me and had no idea who or what you just watched, I found this via teh googlez:

Same. Most of the prior examples of GOP bullshittery could at least be somewhat explained as to why they made sense, procedurally, even if you disagreed with the reasoning. But the Merrick Garland situation went beyond any remotely logical explanation and cemented for me that there’s absolutely zero possibility of…
