That Jim and Kanye meeting was fucking glorious. I don't think my sides are coming back from orbit for at least a week.

The Center for Urban Renewal & Education’s Star Parker, Sheriff David Clarke Jr., the Center for Security Policy’s Frank Gaffney and Clare Lopez, Conservative Review’s Daniel Horowitz, as well as 27 other leaders from prominent conservative organizations have sent a letter to Trump asking him not to support the First Step Act.
The letter states:
> Despite what the proponents of soft-on-crime policies like criminal leniency suggest, the data is clear and confirmed by common-sense: taking criminals off the streets reduces the rate of crime.
> Now, a leniency-industrial complex is urging you to support a bill that would reduce the sentences for federal drug traffickers, and allow large numbers of those same traffickers to “serve” their sentences outside prison in “home confinement.”
> Mr. President, don’t do it. Trust your instincts.
189135520 It doesn't matter whether it's genuine or not, these people are completely obsessed with images. All these "powerful...", crying brown babies and ugly skank raising her fist in front of a democratic country police stuff, this is their world. Funny how a civilization that had a rationalist autism period suddenly grew even more deluded that the middle ages where symbols were everywhere
>lowering interest rates to the lowest they have been in the last 60 years >quantitative easing >those 2 things discourage capital investment Oh boy, you sure know many things about money, huh!
Joseph Brown
That's a posibility. The worse things go the sooner there will be a reaction. But no.
1st. > we are in the midst of a drug crisis. > 72,000 Americans died of overdoses last year, mostly from fentanyl and heroin > In one year, more Americans were poisoned from drugs than died in the entire Vietnam war. > Mr. President, you have correctly declared this crisis a Health Emergency. > If you put more fentanyl traffickers on the streets—which this legislation would do—you will have countered the good work your Administration has done on this front.
2nd. > supporting this bill would separate you from law enforcement. > Law enforcement believes that this legislation is naïve and dangerous. > For example, the National Association of Assistant United States Attorneys—the people who prosecute heroin traffickers—described this bill as “a fraud upon the public” because it will “cripple law enforcement’s ability” to keep the public safe. > The National Sheriff’s Association says that “this is a dangerous path to follow.” > These public servants are among your strongest supporters, and we urge you to listen to them instead of Sally Yates, the ACLU, Hillary Clinton, and Eric Holder.
3rd. > after a Prison Reform bill passed the House on May 22nd, additions and modifications are being made in an undemocratic process of smoke-filled rooms, rather than “regular order.” > No new modified bill has been formally introduced, offered for expert testimony at a subcommittee level, full committee hearings, and then made open to robust floor debates with amendments made in order. > There has been too little transparency, too few public hearings, and an abominable precedent of legislating in the dark of night to make America’s laws
4th > supporting this legislation would be a massive political mistake. > Proponents of leniency for drug traffickers produce biased polls alleging that the American people support, in the abstract, criminal justice “reform,” and prison “reform.” > These polls are based on misleading terms like “low-level, nonviolent drug offenders,” conjuring up images of drug users rather than the serious drug traffickers that are prosecuted in the federal criminal justice system. > We, too, support real prison reform, as opposed to broad jailbreak masquerading as reform. > But this bill is not prison reform—it’s prison release. It’s not sentencing reform—it’s sentencing reductions
> Today, all too many criminals who are released go on to commit more crime. > If you support this legislation, every time a fentanyl trafficker or murderer is released into home confinement, or to the street, and that criminal goes on to commit another crime, you will be blamed. > It doesn’t save money—it costs lives. > For more of the numerous reasons that this legislation is dangerous for law-abiding citizens, we ask that you meet with the police officers, prosecutors, sheriffs, narcotics officers and representatives of victims who oppose this dangerous legislation. > Standing with law enforcement and law-abiding Americans against the criminals and drug traffickers who are flooding our communities with deadly poisons has been one of your hallmark rallying cries. We have been with you on that cry.

Donald Trump going with Van Jones, Kanye & Jared Kushner OVER Jeff Sessions on law & order, MAGA!

0% rates/QE/QE2 do not necessarily spur capital investments, especially in light of Obama's overall economy priorities (such as they were) and policies.
As it was the tax burden on individuals with spare capital who could invest it (say 150k+ year) was massively increased. Bush tax cuts sunsetted, taxes were RAISED, and additional new taxes in the form of the ACA, capital gains, etc. were added or increased dramatically. Useful to note is that here in the US many small businesses are LLCs or S-Corps with pass-through income. That means that the income is treated as an individual income, and taxed at the individual rates. Add on additional regulations in the form of unemployment, healthcare, education etc. that Obama put on employers -- those are all, effectively, taxes.
In other words, Obama's tax and regulatory decisions impacted small businesses disproportionately - small businesses in the US accounts for about 50% of the GDP. It's a prime employer, and tends to be the incubator for both innovation. When you kill small business, you kill future employment growth and a lot more along with it.
The loaning and banking requirements and regulations he put through (while good intentioned in some regards) ALSO made access to capital harder, even for those who genuinely could afford and need it for growth.
Real capital investment means investment in job and wealth creating assets. It has a flow-on effect throughout multiple industries. Obama's economic policies essentially ensured more consumer spending and little else. Hence the debt explosion and overall shitty job and economic growth we saw.

fluctuations are not a rare thing in share markets if it keeps crashing like this for the next three weeks straight, ok you've got something special. But one bad week does not a trend make
Isaiah Robinson
I wonder if the rally today and the one tomorrow will be the last of 2018.
Sessions is a failure through and through, and pretty much the exact opposite of what trump wants because trump wants to be a great president that will change shit. Session wants to stay in slumber for 4 years.
That's like saying "you keep saying this die will roll a 3 one out of every six rolls, but you never say why this specific roll was a 3"

What the fuck is all this about climate change today? Did the sun explode or did some ((scientists)) publish a new study about how the world will end unless they get more money?

A die roll is completely deterministic and could be predicted and explained by Newtonian physics, pretty bad analogy considering humans are not not like rocks.
Ethan Martinez
The US market? Interest rate hikes. That's all. The fundamentals of the economy are excellent still.
Most of the wunderkid millenial-fuck MBAs haven't lived in a world as adults where they've seen greater than 5% rates. Most folks probably don't remember it otherwise.
Higher interest rates translates into increased costs for businesses to borrow capital, it's going to mean higher rates on loans, consumer debt, etc.
It has people spooked. No surprise.

yeah, Sessions is content to be mediocre and only focus on 1 or 2 things while pretty much ignoring everything else.

Fed hiked the interest rate on the 3rd week of September from 2% to 2,25%, correct?
Why the time-lag in the correction that happened in October 11th then?
Chase Moore
the latter
David Hall
That second thing, yeah, except it was just the UN.
Jason Bennett
Second one. But also so they can rile up all the fence sitting bernouts that think banning straws is going to do anything when we have no direct control over India and China's pollution.
China will regulate their pollution. (((within China)))
Matthew Collins
FOMC october meeting, bond market doesn't react instantly, could just be noise. One big down day is nothing, if it's still down after monday close then maybe there's a there there.
if by regulating you mean not giving a shit and laughing when baizuos try to kill Western industries, then yes.
-it would not surprise me if some of the baizuo related studies and climate studies were funded by Chinese to attack Europe and USA through baizuos
Grayson Mitchell
The problem is that Sessh was perfect as head of the Senate immigration committee. He could have fast-tracked RAISE. Instead we got an AG who works HARD for immigration issues but falls flat on literally everything else. The problem is that Giuliani or literally anyone else would also do immigration shit (its in the job description) AND everything else.
Sessions wants to be a paleocon. He is a paleocon. Paleocons died out for a reason- they don't fight.
Carson Collins

could Turkey be framing the saudis as part of wapos midterm drumpf campaign?
You have yet to explain HOW IN THE FUCK QE didn't create wealth (or discouraged capital investment, to create that wealth). in 2010, the GDP grew 2.6%, which is more than what it grew in 2017, btw. It seems like it worked to me... not to mention that during Obama's presidency, he literally cut unemployment in half. In 2009, the unemployment rate was at 10%, he reduced it to 4.7% in 2017. How exactly didn't his policies work?
According to you, GDP growth isn't creation of wealth? No one gives a shit about who's creates that growth, whether it's big, small or whatever the fuck businesses, growth is growth.
Samuel Hill
unlikely. Turkey is giving the pastor back
