...but do people actually think we can avoid servicing our debt while keeping out bond market solvent at the same time?
Of course not. I was simply addressing the short term market outlook for stocks. There will be a snapback rally at some point, possibly in the next few days. Will it last? IMO there is more to go on the down side. We'll see.
this is such a buying opportunity. This is literally one of the best financial opportunities in my life.
Would normally agree, but gold is down 6% since Thursday morning. This might mean that gold traders are sniffing a possible deflationary spiral. Bad news, if true. On the sidelines for now.

Their website says the county has 16% of the state population.
Correct. The 5 biggest counties in TX encompassing Houston, Dallas, Ft. Worth, Austin and San Antonio total about 14.4 million people according to last census. That's just shy of 50% of the state total. The rest of the state is very red.
Controlling the fraud in those 5 counties is the key to keeping the Texas red.

Media asked him about that. Vance said he’s willing but wants to wait to see if the Dems “pull a switcheroo” at the convention and put someone else in the slot. :)

FYI to all: For those interested, Bastrop is 30 miles SE of Austin. One of Musk’s operations, The Boring Co. is located there. Fast growing town these days.

I read Justice Thomas’s concurrence opinion as giving a ‘green light’ to Judge Cannon in Florida to rule that Jack Smith illegally occupies the Special Prosecutor job.
And Thomas is the justice assigned to oversee the 11th Circuit where Judge Cannon operates. Message couldn't be clearer.

Why is Bannon going to prison and Garland is not? I thought no one was above the law.
And for the exact same thing.
Mike Johnson: Arrest Garland, stick him in the Capitol jail and trade hostages. The games will end. Free Peter Navarro from his last few weeks in prison for the same the thing while you're at it.

Who Will Replace Joe?
Gonna be fascinating to watch this. First, somebody's gotta convince Jill to get Joe outta there. I don't see any Goldwater-type with the stones to make that trip to the WH. Even Obama seems reluctant.

When this story first came out, I read somewhere where the Trump team was independently looking into this. Gonna be interesting where this goes. Merchan has to address this at some point.

Thanks for the clarification. Born and raised in Virginia but came down here to Texas after that. Things have changed a lot in the Old Dominion since I lived there,
