The fact that he couldn’t buy the stocks ? : He probably couldn’t steal that much money that quickly

The Epstein administration is great at corruption. Transparency not so much.

The corruption by these FOX-based fools and the criminal Trump family and ship of fools, is head-spinning!

Where is the “f-ing“ accountability?

There must be a Congressional investigation on Hegseth. This is too close to being real shady.

Earlier today, I wrote to my senator, Chris Murphy, because he is one of the few in Congress speaking out about the daily failure of this admin, Congress, and Supreme Court to honor their oaths of office to our Constitution, our country, and to their constituents. I asked if there are no longer ethics, no shame? We have lost the respect of the world! And...regular Americans are suffering because of these criminals! What will our children's future be? Will they even have one?

If even the appearance of people close to power positioning themselves financially around war is in the air, that corrodes public trust in everything we’re being told. This shouldn’t ever be about markets, timing, or leverage—it should be about preventing conflict and protecting lives. The moment war starts to look like it has secondary beneficiaries, faith in the system breaks down fast.

"It feeds a long-standing and dangerous suspicion: that war benefits the powerful while ordinary Americans bear the cost."

It ALWAYS HAS & SADLY ALWAYS WILL!

The wealthy make money when we're at peace or in a war. Possibly more so in war because they are heavily invested in the military industrial complex and petrochemicals. And lets not forget that they get tax breaks, loopholes, kickbacks, subsidies, offsets, stock buybacks and bailouts. But we the taxpayers can barely afford groceries, gas or bills and get stuck with the bill for their perks.

Who are the moochers again???

I agree! I'm always saying, "Take the wealthy off welfare!"

Thank you! And I love your picture of Harry! He's one of my favorite movie characters!

Harry has been a favorite of mine as well. John Lithgow's character interactions with Harry were hilarious. "Sit Harry!" ~ Priceless.

John Lithgow is another favorite. I loved "Third Rock from the Sun."

Third Rock was such a great show. The chemistry between Jane Curtain and John was so good.
