Not a bad idea to cool the market down a bit.

“Just curious, but is there a significance to January 9th? Or is it just the date they picked to do this?”

I find it interesting that Jan 9 is the day some people think Roaring Kitty specified as something happening with meme stocks.

Thanks to Jimmy Carter, we are suffering through Iran’s war against the West, including Israel. Carter betrayed the Shah of Iran and gave the government over to an Islamic fanatic who had been exiled to France. Then Carter did nothing and we got a bunch of hostages held until Iran saw President Reagan about to become President. Even Carter’s attempt to rescue the hostages failed and resulted in US troops killed. Up until Obama, he was considered to be the worst President in US history, that is until Obama took his place and then Biden took Obama’s place. That being said, may Jimmy Carter rest in peace.

DemonRat Party had to have something to distract from President Catastrophe.

They are hoping people will little note nor long remember the former President Disaster.

Many are too young to remember and will be sympathetic to an old man.

I’m just surprised they didn’t plan Carter’s funeral on Jan. 20th.

We’re not a country of kings and commoners.

No special day for Jimmy.
