Any FinTwit refugees have good recommendations for how to invest going forward if securities regulations won’t be enforced and federal spending is going to be primarily directed towards friends of the kleptocracy?
Obvious answer: the two pro-kleptocracy stocks (on a tear), but I can’t support them.

Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office.
If you're represented by one of the squishier centrists, be sure to make a call. Now.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Today, the Dems will make a deal to reopen the government.
Tomorrow, Trump will illegally withhold appropriated funds, send his masked armed thugs to kidnap people off the streets, and order the military to murder civilians without due process.
So nothing has changed.

if the Democrats are willing to accept this deal, in particular, i don't think a single Senator should make it through their primary. this just makes health inequity worse and lets Trump send out checks with his name on them!
"A development that appeared to break the logjam: Republicans proposed that healthcare funding be provided directly to households rather than used to pay for a 1-year extension of ACA subsidies. That involves sending federal money into FSAs instead of insurance companies" www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
Republicans Pitch Alternative to ACA Extension to End Government Shutdown
A proposal by GOP senators to send money directly to consumers’ health accounts rather than to insurance companies showed signs of breaking a stalemate on negotiations.

fwiw i think one reason why Trump is avoiding negotiating with Dems or really meeting with Dems is that they're hiding his condition.

Also, was Trump somewhere really windy or did his handlers let him leave the salon with his hair looking like that on purpose?

Any comment from the hysterical billionaire crowd, who are so terrified of “socialist Democrats,” on this senile mob boss president illegally demanding ownership transfer of enormous shares of public companies—billions of dollars he’s functionally stealing from existing shareholders?

Relieved that voters resoundingly rejected this fascist bullshit.
Angry that we still have at least another year of it, probably another three, and that we're by no means in the clear.
Livid that it all could have been avoided if we had simply not reelected the asshole who tried a coup.
