What a shame that our fellow Democrats are so pathetic at messaging. There’s a compelling story to tell here, about the stealth attack on ObamaCare. So sad that Dems are absolutely useless at telling it. I’m a regular small $ donor but will give $0 until Dems develop a coherent narrative.

in other words, if you disagree with me the only possible cause is your own ignorance.

he’s right, obviously.

Kansas City shows up…

yes. Before Trump’s crash BTC was touted as an alternative to gold as a store of value, as if it could just keep rising or at least not lose money. Whoopsie.

4) So bonds are simply a borrowing instrument whose interest rate fluctuates based on supply and demand. If the demand for bonds goes down at the same time as stocks it alarms investors because it’s not the expected dynamic as explained above. $ also dropping really freaks currency markets out.

3) What freaked Trump and market analysts out was that rates began to rise rather than fall as expected. This indicates that buyers are drying up, requiring higher rates to continue buying, which means eroding trust in US ‘full faith & credit’, which underlies the dollar as reserve currency.

2) When investors and countries get nervous about markets they sell stocks and buy bonds, known as ‘flight to safety’. More buyers mean prices rise, as with any limited commodity (eggs, for example). More buyers means the rate required to attract them can go lower; interest rates fall as prices rise

1) bonds are simply a formal way for countries, municipalities and companies to borrow money. USTreasury bonds are the global world standard (so far)due to their safety. investors and countries buy them for safety and to collect a fixed interest rate…

Not about tariffs anymore, shown by today’s market drop. Bond market is reacting now, as rates do what they shouldn’t; climb during risk-off. BTC, supposed safe haven, is falling in concert. Both ‘bond vigilantes’ and foreign USTreasury buyers, the ultimate decision makers, will desert US assets.

Forget about Trump’s credibility; what about the credibility of our markets? After this enormous wealth transfer by fiat, who would argue or believe that our markets, the most traded in the world, are fair and orderly? The relief rally doesn’t convince me, and the ultimate repercussions w/b fatal.

Who cares what this dogmatic sycophant says? He’s shown himself repeatedly to be a doctrinaire reactionary and a reason-free toady. Self-identification as a ‘patriot’ is a prime indicator of the opposite. Capitulation or manipulation? I’ll take B for the loss of $6T, Alex.

The largest expropriation of wealth in market history. Lost money this week? it has now been transferred into the accounts of Trump’s billionaire pals. They didn’t need to be tipped off for this to be manipulation; they and their lackeys watch the markets constantly, as workers and retirees can’t.

I’m always amazed when otherwise smart people ask “why is he doing this?” He tells us explicitly right here…they’re all coming to HIM begging for a deal! At the expense of our economy and your 401k, he’s succeeded…in putting himself at the center. That’s what it’s always about with a narcissist.

An absolute tell. Since their MAGATS are all, and only, about ‘sticking it’ to the reality-based community, they put that frame on everything. Glad to destroy our nation to stick it to their adversaries.

Many Jews voted for Trump as single-issue voters w the belief that he’d support Bibi and Israel no matter what. Never did they think that he’d adopt the old ‘cosmopolites’ language of the Soviets. Wake up time! He’s from an old-line German family and will pounce on Jews the minute it suits.

So disappointing that Dems can’t distinguish between effective resistance and spitting in the wind.Green’s behavior does nothing but validate Trump’s insults. Without a coherent argument every Dem Senator can jump up and down all day w zero effect. If this is Dem strategy we’re doomed.

2/ The strategy of Dems at this session is weak. No voter will be persuaded by their decision to sit throughout the session, and they’ve foolishly validated Trump’s characterizations by their behavior. If waving little signs is Dem’s resistance strategy, we’re more doomed than i imagined.

1/ The degradation of our public ceremonies was on full display last night. We’ve gone from civil decorum to Rep.Wilson calling Obama a liar to a full-on wrestling match atmosphere in a few years. Rather than upholding decorum Dems have degenerated along with Trumpers, waving signs and shouting.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Pundits keep repeating the media mantra that Democrats can’t devise a persuasive message. i have a simple idea; the message, repeated by all Dems every day, should be “ how is this helping you?”

2/ If you are naive and delusional enough to believe that the world will acquiesce to Trump’s imperial actions, i pity you when you wake up. The dissolution of the FBI, CIA, USAID, and Education threaten us all. Like Hinderberg and Von Papen, the shame of Republican enablers will be eternal.

1/ Anyone with the remotest understanding of 20th century history should realize that these Trump actions are prelude to war. Trump, like Putin, believes that, as a nuclear power, in the final analysis we can get away with anything by threatening nuclear retaliation to resisters.

Senator; Brooklyn doesn’t bow. Brooklyn doesn’t post. Brooklyn fights until the adversary is on their ass and can’t get up. Be Brooklyn for once.
