I am blown away at the idea that the US president and both houses waste their time on what a post office is called.

Like - I literally can't conceive how no-one thinks it's an irrelevant waste of everyone's time, regardless of the name being used. Why is this a fucking bill?

At the end of the day, even the most "Liberal" cities in America are still part of a free market society, and in a free market society, there will always be income inequality, and even if San Fran went full blown Libertarian Wild West, it would still exist.


i know i shouldn't be entertaining an argument fucking sephyg made but yeah, this is what it comes down to.

lol @ the idea that san francisco is a "liberal utopia." no city in the US comes even close to being liberal.

Good. Mattis wanted endless wars in the Middle East and home defense should be a priority of any sovereign nation.

I liked Mattis. But, he maybe is better overseeing the military itself and not the foreign policy dictating what the military does abroad.

Idk it is tough to say. I liked Mattis, and I like bringing the troops home

Also, there was concern that Trump might fire the Federal Reserve Chair (current word is no but also it clearly didn't come from Trump because it included that Trump "doesn't believe he has the right to fire them".)

Also, Mnuchin met with top bank CEOs and assured us all that there isn't a problem with liquidity, for seemingly no reason because I don't think anyone was worried about this.

...The market reacted as you might expect.

Oh, and Kelly is out/will soon be out but that might have been earlier than this past week, I can't tell anymore.

Yeah, the more I thought about it the more I was thinking this was the case, but:

1. Time feels different under this administration. You could tell me things happened in October and I'd be like "the hell that was this year?"

2. There's been like 20 "Kelly is out" stories going back to 2017 I couldn't be sure I wasn't mixing the real one up for the frauds.

None of his supporters want him reining in jack.

The stock market is a normal correction and interest rates being raised, anyway. Since when do liberals care about big corporations making money in the stock market? Wasn't there a big Occupy Wall Street movement protesting exactly that not too long ago? An actual crash, as opposed to a correction, would mean no jobs available plus a recession. This has simply not happened.

Even a recession isn't the end of the world if you're smart with your money, because it's the best time to buy assets.

I mentioned a long time ago (pre-midterms, I think) that this is one of the pettier reasons I had for supporting Pelosi, but it's coming through already and often. She's going to drive Trump crazy:

https://twitter.com/kylegriffin1/status/1077945912289300481

"The fact ... that he says, 'We're going to build a wall with cement, and Mexico's going to pay for it' while he's already backed off of the cement - now he's down to, I think, a beaded curtain or something, I'm not sure where he is."

lmao

And I guess so there's something more substantial here. It was obvious to everyone, but the Democratic House will have a bill to reopen the government on January 3. Not sure the GOP House will go for it, but it'd be great to see the first thing the new Congress do is pass a veto-proof budget/CR.
