The funny thing I don't hear much about is: Although the Dow, NASDAQ and S&P500 have reached record highs recently, the global indexes have outperformed the US indexes. The MSCI World ex USA went beyond 30% in 2025 when the US indexes didn't go past 15%. That's weakness.

Watch the PSOTU to get the facts and wait for him to lose his mind when it gets more views and better ratings than his lying shitshow.

Rest in Power

A TMZ poll on X has Kid Rock as having the better halftime show. Even though I didn't watch the Superbowl or the performance, I signed up to X to vote against Kid Rock and deactivated my account. However, so far from what I have seen on videos, the show by Kid Rock was complete garbage.

Do you want to know why "America" was so great in the 1950's? A major reason is that the Interstate Highway system was established in 1956 and the railway system had not yet lost it's importance. One efficient way to be great again is by investing in intermodal transportation to reduce bottlenecks.

I don't know much but I know that tax write offs and breaks for the ultra rich won't fix this problem. It's only going to get worse before it gets better. But sleepy Joe Biden's Build Back Better and Big Government expansion ... meanwhile federal agents patrol our streets.

And they shot him 9 more times.

A joyful start to the day which will likely be ruined by the news at any time.

Winter apocalypse approaching. Time to make soup.

I have come to the realization that these, mostly white, men joined ICE simply to kill immigrants and libs. I expect the internet to give these 8 CoD Warriors no quarter and release their identities so they can be publicly shamed like Agent Ross. Don't let them breathe a moment of peace from now on.

I don't typically share my home made dishes here but maybe I should start. Spaghetti with eggplant, tahini, and oregano oil sauce.

From the people who brought you "Don't Tread on Me", now comes: "Obey orders from masked, unidentified and armed men, wearing a Temu vest with the words "POLICE ICE" patched on it, as they try to forcibly remove you from the vehicle." Might as well let kids take candy from strangers at this point.

ICE just murdered a U.S. citizen. This violence is the direct result of racist rhetoric coming from Donald Trump and his allies. This is dangerous state-sanctioned violence. We will not stay silent while unqualified masked federal agents terrorize our communities.

Democratic States should stop acting like the Obamacare subsidies are a tragedy for their residents and do something about it. States can establish State sponsored universal healthcare for their citizens. This isn't unconstitutional and we don't need the Regime's help. Step up for your residents!

Truly hope this individual gets to pay for the garbage and disinformation he regurgitates. He's up there as one of the most garbage people of the past 10 years.

Terrorist Bolivarian groups have operated in the region for years. While the head may have been removed, it doesn't mean that Bolivarianism will go down quietly, if at all. Unlike Iraq, this region is close enough for these groups to cause real economic and infrastructural damage with little effort.

Trying to digest the news. This was done over the weekend to prevent any fallout in the stock market, oil price increases and international repercussions. If I were a betting man, I would bet that Maduro will be back in Venezuela by the end of next week once the repercussions are fully known.

Unpopular opinion: while unfortunate, Argentina’s owed over the $40B debt it received. From the Cold War through the 1990s, the US supported military regimes and compliant civilian governments across Latin America, especially Argentina. This cost the country trillions in unrealized development.

I don't know why but I get this feeling that our most important trade partners will pose sanctions in the US if the regime continues to push towards war with Venezuela. If you think things are expensive now, just imagine how they'll be when all imported products disappear from the shelves.

My Thanksgiving Contribution: Butternut squash gnocchi (made from scratch) on my brown butter, garlic and sage sauce. Managed to capture a pic of the leftover at least.

Undocumented immigrants are not responsible for most crime in the U.S. Studies show they offend at lower rates than native-born Americans. Whites have the most total arrests and African Americans have higher rates per capita. Ultimately, POVERTY, not ethnicity, remains the strongest driver of crime.

This is counting 20% of how much we'd save from vehicles sitting on traffic jams. To further increase savings we need: - Very frequent service on major bus and train lines - Reliable buses with dedicated lanes - More Park-and-Ride routes - Transit oriented development - Traffic pricing policies

I am United States citizen and was born so in nature of Puerto Rico being a territory of the United States of America. My first language is Spanish and I have a bit of an accent. I may look like the white majority, but I can assure you that I do not identify as such and I will stand up for others.

Europe's approach to aging population: Free healthcare 1-2 years of paid parental leave for both parents Free or subsidised child care Sensical (not perfect) immigration laws and refugee protections USA's: ACA 👋 12 weeks of UNPAID FMLA for the mother only $7,500 Childcare FSA 🖕 non white immigrants

If you start seeing ads from Center of the American Experiment, please be aware that they are based on misconstrued and exaggerated facts. This "think-tank" doesn't cite reliable sources and shares bogus but neat looking reports. Don't fall for this. mediabiasfactcheck.com/center-of-th...

Could Obama replace Durbin as US Senator for Illinois? The last time a former President was elected to the Senate was Andrew Jackson in 1874.

In the Philadelphia DA race, incumbent Larry Krasner (D) defeated Democrat turncoat Patrick Dugan (R). With votes counted, Krasner has received 74,723 votes (80.8%), while Dugan received 17,796 votes (19.2%). Krasner had previously won the Democratic primary on May 20, 2025, with 64.36% of the vote.

YES and BLUE

Also from Argentina

Hey everyone, most of you will probably scroll past this, but I want to make something clear. Argentine beef is fine and has been for decades. This is nothing more than a desperate move by Trump and his DOA appointee to prop up the US beef industry, the same one that’s been voting red since 2016.

Looks like my go to Hispanic supermarkets are getting raided. Cool cool cool. This one happened in July and I didn't even hear about it in the news. whyy.org/articles/nor...

So much winning.

The beef industry in the US has lobbied for decades against importing from the competition, Brazil and Argentina. It overwhelmingly voted for the regime thrice. Now a desperate regime is trying to get Argentine beef imports to qualm inflation and help its buddies who got into bad investments. #FAFO

Since my Amazon Music yearly subscription is expiring next month and Spotify has decided to cozy up to the fascist regime by donating to it and running ICE recruitment ads, I have chosen Deezer as my new music streaming service. I suggest y'all check it out. www.deezer.com/us/

Not really much of a baseball fan but I'm happy to see a World Series with the team from Canada facing the team from LA.

Yes, you pay for undocumented immigrants’ health care, just not the way Faux News wants you to think. Without access to Medicaid or ACA coverage, hospitals still have to treat them. The real freeloaders aren’t the folks the GOP blames. It’s the insurance giants increasing and cashing your premiums.

Starting the week without a foot, I see. Maybe a sick day is in order.

Nor'Eastern and a visit to the dentist call for my Butternut Squash Harvest Soup

Taking a break from my usual posts to share some happier thoughts. Just planted 18 new native perennials and shrubs with my (almost) 3 year old who loves making the Earth beautiful with his dad. This included 3 that are a threatened species in PA. Here's to hoping that they all thrive!

You might look at the major U.S. indexes and think the markets are performing well. However, a quick glance at the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index tells a different story. It has nearly doubled the year-to-date performance of the Dow Jones and S&P 500. So, are we winning yet? Today it's at 28.8%.
