My best advice: just say no to Fox News.

Still applies today:
“If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.”

Seconded!!
Individual investor of ~30yrs, who’s done well enough at it to validate resounding support of your point.

Buying into companies like (across time examples) Corning, US Steel, Ford, IBM, Amgen, Apple & Raytheon… Made good savings sense.

Chasing “bubble” value of intangibles, not so much.

This is the link to the story. They're just so "normal" like somebody's parents or grandparents trying to do something decent & live their faith. If ICE will terrorize them gratuitously w/ no reason, everyone will be prey sooner or later. Surreal.

This is how far out of control they are. They're going after elderly Minnesotan Catholic parishioners trying to stand up for Somali immigrants right in the church parking lot after mass. ICE is insane. No one in the US is safe anymore. Nazi Germany 2.0. Try to help anyone, they'll kill you too.

Oh my God it feels so good(?) to finally see someone else say this. ICE are domestic terrorists in an occupying force for a foreign-backed neo-Nazi regime.

Well, it’s a good thing that the American colonists weren’t averse to shooting the British at Lexington and Concord. ICE is an occupation force reporting to a Russian puppet regime in Washington. Treat it that way.

I missed this story!

Dem candidate crushed GOP rival, 59-41, becoming not only Miami's first Democratic mayor in 30 years, but first woman mayor in city's history!
