This affects us all

It all bothers me. You are talking to the guy that has repeatedly talked about how we should have more police dogs in this country. So yes, I have opinions on how we could better police citizens and non citizens alike.

These crimes being committed by non citizens are all mostly avoidable, which is why they bother people. Impossible to stop every assault that happens in every American home. Not impossible to keep criminals out of this country.

Why is it that the sharing of stories, and not the stories themselves, bother you? Using your own words, it doesn’t seem to bother you that young women are being attacked on American campuses. I guess that makes you twisted too!
It bothers me but I don't go looking for every rape attack on women in the country and post them. There would be hundreds if not thousands per day. I don't scan the internet to find every murder and post it, there would be hundreds per day. Why do you MAGA feel a compulsion to find and post illegal immigrant crime posts all day? I have life, work, family to focus on, rather than crime, children that are abused, children that are hungry, puppies out in the cold. Try it rather than hunting Illegal Immigrant Crime Porn all day. You might lead a happier more meaningful life.
 
JFC, now you are hunting for Illegal Immigrant Crime stories in Frankfort Germany. Get a life.
 
Old Jeff who needs a handout tells me the economy is doing great.


I'm pretty sure he said he doesn't receive a subsidy.

I don't think Obamacare is particularly good policy, but it's not as if the insurance carriers weren't heavily involved in crafting it. One of the primary reasons is that it brought them more customers.

The complaint here would be that other consumers are subsidizing Jeff (which is how things work when the government eliminates certain types of coverage exclusions).

Jeff is certainly right about one thing. The Republican refusal to push a market-based health reform - which they fear would be received poorly electorally even though it would likely work better than the current system - cedes a whole lot of ground to the Dems on the health care issue.

I know this might be hard to believe, but even a higher crime rate in NYC doesn’t make it unsafe relative to other American cities. Because in 2019, the crime rate there was extraordinarily low for a dense urban area in the US (it’s also why the percentage spike is higher, a lower baseline generates a higher spike).

That doesn’t mean the bail policy is good - I think it’s actually a really stupid policy.

But I do again note that everyone wants to keep comparing to 2019. What happened in 2020 that likely spiked crime and social disorder in the US? What could it ever be?
It is not just me. It is now 2024 and the Dem Gov of NY just had to roll out a new five point plan to protect people on the Subways. I am guessing even she believes things have become OOC or why bother 🤷‍♂️ I am not sure why you are downplaying this situation.

After DeSantis signs the bill, Florida will have a new law stripping any rights from squatters. Bill was passed unanimously by the legislature.
They have too many old people and rich people heading back and forth from various homes to allow squatters. It makes sense for Florida to nip it in the bud. I mean no state should allow it, but some liberal states make it difficult on home owners, because the Left has taken over their party and they don’t believe in private property rights, which is ridiculous and not even worthy to discuss. It’s hard to believe there are enough people who have tried to mainstream that idea.

From all I can tell, the NYC and the state of NY think there's a crime problem on the subway. There's probably more to this as well, subway revenues are likely important to the City's budget, and are almost surely way down due to changes from Covid (such as WFH). A loss of consumer confidence in safety only compounds the issue.

I feel like I am repeating myself. Crime is up in NYC from 2019, though it's almost certainly down from 2021/22 (at least the most serious crime is). NYC in 2019 was an extremely safe for a large urban city. It can both be less safe today and still considerably safer than most large urban areas.

Unintended Consequences: You have to laugh !

Facebook and Twitter and other social media outlets thought they were cancelling Trump.

So he opens up something called "Truth" (is that the name I've never looked ?) to be able to post.

Now, Twitter doesn't exist = X

Truth (or whatever) has put Trump on the list of the 500 wealthiest people in the world. (His first time ever !)

Yesterday's trading (up 59 %) has increased his wealth, by Billion$, so that he is now ABOVE George Soros and around Mark Cuban !

Yes I know it's restricted stock subject to the rules surrounding those holdings.

I left the Stock Brokerage business because my owner lied to me about a company that he was selling every time, his restricted stock was released.
He cost me about a million dollars in commissions and overrides.

Trump has a meme stonk out there. The "Truth Social" company posted - I am not making this up - like $4M in revenue and a nearly $50M loss in 2023. And that's the literal asset for this new stock offering.

This whole ordeal will end up with a valueless stock for Trump and his idiot followers, with massive lawsuits to follow. Hope Trump can cash out early enough to pay the coming legal bills.

I don't care at all about Trump's phony company or fake net worth increase on something that for all practical matters is worthless. It's a weird Internet talking point for the time being. If they can turn this into a real company, might be worth something. But it's Trump, so all signs point to a final value of $0.

Hard to believe, because it is not true. Actually, squatters didn't have any rights in Florida. The only ones that were given a few weeks to a month in order to get them evicted were those that forged or lied about having a lease to the premises. All the new law does is allow the owner to file an affidavit stating that the purported lease is a fraud/lie by the squatter.

I am better at discerning internet RW Bullsh!t from reality. You can say you are not MAGA all you like, but your posts demonstrate otherwise. Kind of like the posters that claim that they are not racist.

Scam like every other endeavor he has had except the fake reality show Apprentice which for some reason some watched and even more incredibly believed. Do you really believe that his net worth increased in one day from fake Billionaire to richer than Soros or Cuban? Let me guess you believed the Apprentice also.

You could file an affidavit before the law but police departments were hesitant to do so. This law removes any hesitation to remove squatters. They also added criminal penalties as well.

I think they have taken a hit but they are still major players(Blackrock)…..

Yes, they are a major player. You won't get them out of the marketplace, but you can push them back into reality on the ESG stuff. Outside of a few activists, businesses don't push this stuff because they want it but instead because the want to get the crazies off their ass.

You should spend some of your leisure time learning about the RULES in the Securities industry.

He owns 58 % of Truth , which was bought out by another company. For example that 56 % went UP in value by about 50 % yesterday.

An easy math example would be if the stock was worth 4 Billion on Monday.
Up 50 % on Tuesday, which it was on the NASDQ ! That $ $ Billion is then worth $ 6 Billion. ( math ain't racist !)

It was actually MORE $

I have never watched an episode of the Apprentice, have you ?

Research the Milliken Brothers stock swindlers. Now the remaining brother is a so-called "expert". To me he and his dead Brother were and are swindlers. Paying off $ 600,000,000 millions in fines, (now that is a REAL number) hasn't rehabbed them.

Or the Koch brothers and their history of hating each other.

Trump is not swindling anyone at this point. I mean, it's pretty clear this is a worthless stock to anyone reviewing the financials, and the bet is somehow it helps him win the election. But that doesn't mean those involved are going to avoid problems when it inevitably tanks and exits the marketplace.

According to Wall Street the combined firm has 4 employees and 3 officers/directors. Where is the value coming from? Pump and Dump.

I took some time to create an account and play around with TS the other day. I am not an expert, but thought it to be pretty well done. I am guessing people will be shorting DJT successfully unless he uses his political platform to encourage his supporters to not only sign up, but be active users. That would be good use of his superpowers, so to speak. He has an extremely loyal base.

I have watched numerous companies print crazy red ink for extended periods of time as the stock treads water or even climbs. I am guessing there are some great examples like AI(until early this year) or Tesla.

I think I read somewhere he has restricted stock for the first 6 months. Can that be leveraged or bartered with? That is above my pay grade. All the restricted stock I own has a value and can actually be liquid for a price.

I believe he cannot leverage or barter it for 6 months, but the Board can lift those restrictions if they see fit.

There is zero doubt that there's a company with value here if properly promoted and managed. But not close to the current valuation, which is why I'm calling it a meme stonk. If you could get say 3M regular users and market to them, I'd think you'd have a real business worth not insignificant money. Probably not billions tho.

Trump's issue will of course be selling shares without tanking the price of the stock. That will certainly work with diluting his ownership interest, but if he did that substantially while company was deeply in the red, exactly what is the value going forward?

I genuinely don't think Trump intended for this, but right now the company's biggest upside is an influence peddling operation for Trump. "We'll take some stock off your hands for a favor" ... lol. And yikes! Of course that's all premised on winning in November ... we all know what's going to happen with this media venture if there's no winning that occurs.

So you didn't look up how restricted stock works ?

The NASDQ symbol is NOT TJ, it is DJT, but I'm not here to tout his stock on a daily basis.

I knew a guy that was getting a divorce. He was selling a restricted stock as it came off restriction to the tune of 5,000 shares @ around $ 5 .00 a share a day, That went on for about a month till she was happy with the $ amount.

She remarried his ex-best friend. His new "friend" was "awarded" a new attached townhouse/condo, where he got a new Rolls as a perc from the seller for closing.

I took 30 seconds for today's activity on DJT.

UP approx 14 % ( 8 plus points) or about ANOTHER $ Billion for Trump on paper.

32,000,000 + millions shares traded today Wed.

Be a MAN of your convictions and SHORT the stock.

Huh? I know what the restrictions are here … 6 months. It’s widely published.

I’m sure different restricted stocks have different restrictions tho.

You’ve been wrong so much, you aren’t believable. BTW, if I wanted to actually search out posts about crime and illegals, i would post it a lot more. These posts just pop up. It literally takes no searching. This didn’t use to happen…Venezuelan. The people coming over the border now are not looking to blend in with our culture. They just found a different landscape in which to be a criminal. And speaking of criminals you are also wrong about the bill that was passed. It does more than just allow an owner to file an affidavit.
