  1. I still have the 257 Roberts my dad gave me when I was 11. Built on an FN Mouser action. Damned precise rifle. Mine still has an 3 or 4x old Lyman Challenger with the German style post and crosshair reticle.
  2. This is how bubbles are made. People with inflated home values cashing out collateral en mass to buy vacation/rental investment property driving up the price of every house. Tech Boom Enron
  3. Tariffs - They won't raise taxes on Americans, trust me I'm in Business Medicine/ healthcare - Horse paste, shine light on the inside of the body, inject bleach, post term abortions Crypto - We'll write 35 Trillion on a little piece of paper and pay off the debt (Maybe he knows how crypto works) Mexico - will pay for the wall but they're not making any cars War - would not have started if I was in charge, those dictators love me Oil - Drill baby drill, companies will lose money on every barrel but they'll make up for it in volume Inflation - Will drop interest rates on credit cards and that will help people with inflation (Only if he means on existing debt but people will lose credit or maybe he's trying the student loan forgiveness plan but for people with 20K in debt from buying Trump branded junk)
  4. Also got the rear interior done
  5. Couple of cars I saw yesterday
  6. How do you make up for losing money on this trade? Simple answer, volume.
  7. Like we're winning a football game by 2 points with 6 minutes left. Gotta play offense and defense. If you play it right you win by 9 and it looks good. I've heard some judges like RVs and all inclusive trips to foreign resorts.
  8. You forgot about the condition of having to hire Elder Bob’s roofing company to do it.
  9. Trump’s angling for the Haitian Votes. Yes, while wearing a Never Surrender mug shot t-shirt
  10. But was she still in the window for one of those Trump special post birth abortions?
  11. “I won more votes than any sitting president, 75 million” Narrator: Biden won 81 million
  12. Trump = Pro Inflation He'll set up a crypto based mail order service too bad the perfect name is already taken, Amazon. We need to workshop the names, Glamazon, V-bay, realdolls, Epsteingirls, Alibabes...
  13. Interest Rates are one of the Fed's tools in managing the two main economic indicators they track, Inflation and Unemployment. My observation may be wrong but it seems they weigh Inflation as the more important of the two and would tolerate slightly elevated unemployment over high inflation. Raising rates was a move to make borrowing more expensive to get people to spend cash instead of borrowing, this would reduce demand and lower demand would help bring prices down. The balance is to slow spending enough to get inflation in check but not enough to spur mass layoffs from demand falling too much. Driving the economy is more like a boat than a car, you can't stop or turn on a dime, you have to use momentum and velocity changes to make gradual moves to stay in the right ranges. Timing is critical. Both indicators have hit a point where they have to act now or the opportunity to avoid recession will pass. Inflation is near the target 2% and job growth has slowed to where it could get dangerous. From a pessimist POV the 50 point cut could be a signal that they waited too long, they see recession coming and they are trying to overcorrect.
  14. Bill Engvoll had a bit for these people. "Here's your sign"
  15. Yeah, why not alcohol or other drugs that have been around first? Is there something about Fentanyl that lends itself to this vaccine defense that alcohol, heroine or meth doesn't? Or is Fentanyl just in the news enough to get the research funding?
  16. The indictment has some pretty juicy details. https://www.cnn.com/entertainment/live-news/sean-diddy-combs-arrested-nyc-09-17-2024/index.html
  17. I think that New Congress gets seated before January 20th so if Dems win the house we should have Speaker Jeffries in the House.
  18. Reminds me of that IP Lawyer in the weird group sex thing up in the Park Cities a few years ago. She ended up getting hospitalized but she tore everything down first. I hope Loomer tears everything down around her.
  19. I don't think they were polling per say. They were watching engagement clicks and targeting messages at certain susceptible groups. Basically creating the warped dual reality where some people just parrot things like radical left, border, and woke without knowing anything about the issues just that they need to have a guttural/emotional response of fear and hatred that motivates them to vote. There wasn't any polling on it just building the legions of braindead facebook zombies. This.
  20. So would you say California is emptying their prisons and insane asylums and sending them East? We need a wall. Exactly. They have cognitive dissonance because the head coach of their team is a shitheel getting DUIs and cheerleaders pregnant with a bonus case of syphilis after spiking their drinks and it reflects on them but they can’t ignore it and don’t want to switch teams. Think of all the Penn St fans and Paterno.
  21. Remember that Trump was fired by 81 million voters
