"unleash lending for all American people" I'm not sure how to feel about this one... Maybe if the loans are 0% interest.
I currently have no credit score, I don't care and have no interest in going into debt. I'm going to have to see some good reasons why I should take on debt and pay interest to big banks
My track record with crypto is bad so take this with a huge pile of salt. If I was buying right now, I'd get mostly Bitcoin but as a gamble. I'd get some Solana and stake it in order to earn a dividend of sort from it
I wouldn't mind citizens getting those $1000/wk food cards at least until the inflation goes down. Trump's first week was historic but not immediately felt improvements yet
The whole thing is a who's who of economic fuckery. Read justdario for some good write ups on literally all parties involved. https://justdario.com/2025/01/how-is-scott-bessent-going-to-deal-with-the-bank-of-japan/ this is his most recent post. This group represents a nuclear level economic bomb and he just put them all in one room together under his watch
I hated the whole thing on the surface. But I wonder if between the lines Trump is attacking the JPY currency crisis economic time bomb. Masa and softbank are in serious economic trouble sitting on huge amounts of unrealized loses. They have no liquidity and yet somehow are going to invest $100-500billion
Everyone the camera pans to has as big a smile as I do! What a glorious day!
There's only $200 million in the FAIR program and only a few billion across the entire fire insurance industry in California. If this fire does $250-$300+ billion Gavin is going to be asking for a really really big bailout. https://justdario.com/2025/01/state-farm-knew-a-los-angeles-financial-catastrophe-was-only-a-matter-of-time/
Although I like Elon, I saw this evidence that he's lying and faking that he is a top video gamer. I'm not sure why he's trying to fool people but he got caught. https://youtu.be/wlCCtrOCvu0?si=MOeoyWHvIW1zYsPB
As someone who regularly checks the SDO site this "coronal hole" doesn't look that unusual or special imo
The fact that every single time the conditions are right for dangerous wildfires, and not just in California but nationwide Maui to New Jersey etc. not just one fire starts either there's usually dozens of fires that all just spring up like a field of wildfire seeds were planted. There's simply no explanation besides a coordinated and deliberate attack on American citizens that makes sense
I have a Honduran friend/past coworker that got shafted and has been in prison in the US for like the last 7 years and sounds like he will probably get deported right around the time he finishes his sentence. Poor guy had a wife and some children here, she broke up with him and in order to get him out of her and her children's life she made up some bs that he tried to kill her with a knife. He's an ex Honduran special forces guy, I'm sure if he really did there would have been more evidence than a scratch on her hand and a shadow of a bruise she claimed as evidence but the court wasn't kind to him
Was that the yon shakidama? Or something like that? I saw something a few years ago about the biggest firework in Japan. Thing is huge! Like car size and they load it into like a missile silo looking launcher!
Not in California, but we sold a tractor trailer load of our dairy cows. since they were going across state lines to PA we had to have a bunch of paperwork showing they were vaccinated and tested for bird flu. The cows were obviously healthy, but I was pretty scared the bird flu test were going to come back positive (thankfully they didn't)
I think false positive test results can be and are being used for the state to gain unconstitutional and downright illegal power over farmers
I wish I could see how things will unfold eventually. i would love to buy a home! But I've held off because the prices seem way too high and I thought the global economy wouldn't take so long to crash.
Now I wonder if I'm better off waiting a little more or taking on a ridiculous mortgage
No kidding! A new chicken barn was built down the road from me. They made a acre size yard outside the barn that's fenced in. And also about 15 more acres fenced around the barn. In 3 years I can count on one hand the number of times I've seen the barn open and chickens outside, and never have I seen chickens allowed out to the larger pasture
Imagine how jealous Putin would be if America had a bear shaped state in the taiga
I mean Canada's pretty big. I think we'd have to make it at least 10 states or it wouldn't look right on the new maps
One of the biggest reasons I check this site is to find out news on this very subject, and see if there's anything I can do or join to get this addressed!
Farmer here, don't want to dox myself but I have a relative that also farms and they ran a trial plot this year where they were given an experimental solar powered weeding robot. It failed miserably! It obviously needed more power than some panels could give it because it absolutely couldn't keep up. Also I think it killed most of the crop.
I do think there can be a bright future for automatic weeding machines but they'll need to run on diesel not wind or fairy farts
Yay thanks to the state of the economy I have no Bitcoin. If I had $ to save I would have some. Thanks Obama!
I have wondered in the back of my mind. The tweet we have all been waiting for "My fellow Americans the storm is upon us..." Is some kind of dead man's switch that triggers a cascade of what's to follow. But with or without that tweet the storm would definitely be here
We did see that though. Vote counting was at a snails pace ap was not calling states for Trump that he was up bigly. Big ass box trucks came rolling in at 2am in multiple cities Philly had a whole convoy.
All I can figure is they WERE scanning stacks of fake ass Harris ballots but the results coming out from their precious dominion machines or whatever we're not cooperating.
Ghosts in the machine
I voted early but I got my dad to vote today! First time in 30 years he's voted. Small upstate NY precinct. He said it went well, no problem because it's been so long since he was there last. Paper ballot that gets scanned by a machine here. He said his ballot had 1963 his birth year on it in the top. I didn't even know our ballot had that on it. They used black pens and he said the machine said he was #83 to vote already at 7am
The tests are a scam and this bird flu is also a scam. Sure these huge farms are always dealing with lost of sick animals. They're dirty, crowded, fed unhealthy unnatural diets, and bred to produce more eggs meat or milk than ever.
Also plenty of regulations have been pushed for testing testing testing I wonder why. You want to ship across state lines? Got to test. Want insurance for your farm? Got to test. Banks and lenders involved? Got to test!
