This is the dynamic across most of America: Liberal cities generate revenue, which state governments then transfer to benefit conservative rural areas, whose residents despite city-dwellers and consistently vote to harm them. But politicians endlessly pander to rural voters and demonize cities.

Funniest part of an NFL football game is when the defense gets a turnover and very briefly the football team turns into the theatre club and they do their little performance they rehearsed that week.

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

Trump inherited 3 extraordinary assets built up over decades:
-the reserve currency of the world
-the world's safest asset
-the deepest, best regulated capital markets.
Today: Stocks, the 10-year & the dollar are all down.
Bonds & dollar dropping suggests further foreign loss of confidence.

Why just defense contractors? Members of Congress shouldn’t be allowed to trade stock, period.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib has called for a ban on defense contractor stock trading within Congress. At least 50 members of Congress own stock in defense contractors, with their collective holdings totaling as much as $10.9 million.
Tlaib: Congress Should Ban Lawmakers’ Ability to Trade Defense Stock and “Profit Off Death”
