President Joe Biden told Democratic governors during a meeting at the White House on Wednesday that part of his plan going forward is to stop scheduling events after 8 p.m. so that he can get more sleep, according to three sources briefed on his comments.

not beating sleepy joe allegations tbh

Yeah he’s not dropping out. Rbg all over again lol. Wonder what it will take for libs to stop supporting the democratic party.

Random story but a friend of mine (who’s south Asian so not your standard kkk trump supporter) is hoping trump wins because Trump will put money into the stock market and he will benefit. My friend makes 70k a year… This is how completely out of touch people are.

Trump will put money into the stock market

The stock market literally reached an all-time high under Biden, and most Americans are still struggling. Because 90% of stocks are owned by the top 10%…

Technicaly ATH under Biden but relative growth Trump still had a sizeable lead, counting both from election day up to COVID and since COVID to election day.

The only thing BIden offers to the market is a relative predictability about future wars specially against China. Otherwise the “market” prefers Trump in almost every scenario.

All the mainstream economists and economics journals were wrong about the economy, if only people still haven’t memory-holed the constant dooming about recession throughout 2022-2023. They were all wrong.

The fact is that Trump’s growth occurred under a low inflation zero interest rate environment that Obama started. Biden’s presidency has been plagued with record inflation and fastest rate hikes since Volcker shock, yet the stock market continues to grow like never before…

I cannot stress this enough: the neoclassical model is a complete bunk, and it’s amazing that policy makers continue to treat Milton Friedman like a god and his words gospels.

Why do they mark the Covid dip for trump but not mark the Ukraine Russia war dip for Biden? You know, one of the largest countries on earth being completely sanctioned from the dollar-economy probably had at least some effect on stock futures…

well, logically, if we put like 100 quadrillion dollars into the stock market then the 10% of stocks owned by the bottom 90% will still rise a ton and everybody will become billionaires. I reckon Trump will do this after he finally enacts his Iraqi Dinar Equalization Bill; I’ve been holding onto a suitcase full of these things for far too long

Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Health

In 1999, Ginsburg was diagnosed with colon cancer, the first of her five bouts with cancer. […] By February 2020, the cancer had returned but this news was not released to the public. However, by May 2020, Ginsburg was once again receiving treatment for a recurrence of cancer. She reiterated her position that she “would remain a member of the Court as long as I can do the job full steam”, adding that she remained fully able to do so.

She died four months later on September 18.
