no executive order for btc reserve (yet), which was way hyped-up and  his donors expected.

Not really because the 'back the blue people' are generally going to side with the Jan 6th protestors anyway.

The POTUS has no way of knowing if someone is under investigation or will be investigated, so the preemptive pardon covers this before the statute of limitations runs out.

Letting Enrique Tarrio out of a 22 year sentence is reprehensible imo. Kinda increases the incentives for doing political crimes now.




being sentenced 22 years was reprehensible. This pardon commutes it to something more reasonable and commensurate with the crime that was committed. Even BLM protesters whose actions resulted in deaths got shorter sentences.

consider that someone may not be working, such as retired, and wants to save money by moving somewhere cheap. expat communities are a thing


yeah, if you making solid 6 figures in Bay Area tech, then it's worth it to stay put.

I always ask people: if not the United States, where would you go? And where would you invest?




Unless you tethered by your job, live elsewhere where it's cheap but always invest in  'Big Tech'. Nothing beats tech as far as returns are concerned or Bay Area real estate.  But otherwise, America is too expensive and you can save tons of money living aboard and than using the saved $ to invest in FAAMNG.

Military spending acts as a deterrent and to enforce American interests abroad,  so it's worthwhile even if unused .

no one cares. it's evident that when even celebrities can launch coins that crash and burn and not face the consequence that the threat of the law is a paper tiger. The worst worst thing that can happen is it's a civil matter and he pays a fine. afik no one has been prosecuted for promoting or launching a coin.

crazy how much this shit has gone up--even now $trump is higher than it was yesterday at this time.


Smart move by him. Anyone who is even internet-famous should launch their own coin like this. Free $ pretty much .

agree. trump saw, correctly, there would be huge demand for this. he's not making any promises. The disclaimer  on this thing is huge, which 99.999 percent of ppl who buy this will never see, let alone read in entirety. his bases are covered.

If the plates cost $1000 and you can eat from them that is like $5 of utility vs. a $995 loss.  The vast majority of collectibles have no utility, because to remain valuable they cannot  be used. many cannot even be displayed for fear of being stolen or breaking. MTG cards again being a notable  exception to this which offer gameplay utility.

the price keeps going up. the performance is better than 99% of 'legit' coins . sure it can crash, but this is true again of legit coins. Trump is savvy enough to play into this demand. he stuck to his pledge in 2024 of not selling DJT stock.

put a small amount $ in. this way if it crashes you will feel good about not having put more, but if it goes up, all good.

except for MTG cards, collectibles are probably worse due to carry costs. Crypto has no carry. But they both tend to be bad. There tons of stories of people who drudge up their collectibles only to learn they are appraised for nothing or are unable to sell them. With crypto  at least there is a market where everyone gets the same price, and much better liquidity. That  urn may have been appraised for $1000, but no one will buy it or you may only get $800 after fees. Many items at auction houses go unsold due to reserve not being met or no bidders.

crypto is $4 trillion total market cap. $5 billion market cap for $trump  is still tiny. Rather than saturation, it's more like $ from other coins shifting into $Trump. You can see this by how altcoins have all fallen except $SOL and $Trump.

I dunno why people say he's so verbose. He's really not except for a few of his essays. The amount of writing he does is  less than required of a typical humanities undergrad ; same for the amount of effort to read him compared to college assigned reading. The verbosity of the prose itself is not that much different from other writing in an academic setting or even many op-eds, such as from the New Yorker. I think so many people's attention spans are fried.

At least investments, even shitty crypto ones, can go up. Better than 'all or nothing' things like sports betting.

Political problems and division arises  from  insufficient  concentration of political  power, not too much of it.
