When is Enough ,Enough?

Sooo, in other news the Dow is tanking again.

Will it make it to zero this time?

Someone said on here a while back that nobody was betting against the USA recovering, but i say look at the dow and that's exactly what is happening.

Can anyone give me layman financial advice on if it is time to pull my 401K out? I was told that under the CARES act, people can now pull out their 401K with no penalty to keep them from losing everything when the stock market dies...

Thanks

A little perspective, Dow Jones - DJIA - 100 Year Historical Chart

Pulling your 401k would be a really bad idea, unless you're close to retiring you ride this out

That last part isn’t exactly true. If you want less risk you can move it into stable capital, bonds, etc. but you really shouldn’t be cashing out. That’s just my advice. Expect a lot of up and down in market, but the event which could send the market thru the roof would be a vaccine announcement...your not gonna want to miss that.

Oh yeah there is a demand right now for finding racist behavior in everything. Tearing down Statues of Lincoln...the absolute stupidity is a clown show. Hats off to the radical left...god knows if the radical right was rioting and pushing dumbshit narratives, we would know how the reaction would be.

A lot of dumb shit comes along with any movement. The radicals on either side aren't representatives of the majority.

We already let you have your turn, it was called Unite the Right, happened in Charlottesville iirc?

Remember? "Jews will not replace us"

I like to be in the middle.

Yes it was a noose, but as someone who works in a garage and been in a metric fuck-ton of garages in the last 10 years, I've seen enough people use all kinds of knots to know someone probably just wanted something easy to grab to pull the door down. Was it an overreaction? Sure, but better safe than sorry. Shame there are gonna be people out there trying to put it on Bubba Wallace like he was the one that found it and reported it, this isn't another Jussie Smollett episode (who I fully support prosecuting).

Bubba Smollet, along with the other leftwing nazis, hoped that some white shit-kicking supremacists planted a noose so they could push their false racism narrative. You should have seen the look on his face when it was proven to be a hoax. Donna Lemon and Bubba Smollet looked like they were about to cry during their interview on CNN. Bubba looked more upset that it wasn't a hate crime than he did when he thought it was. So what does that tell you about him? I'm all good with being safe and protecting people from criminals who would do them harm. But don't you think NASCAR should have at least confirmed that a crime had taken place before telling the world that it did?

Minneapolis Council members get private security after threats

Typical lying piece of shit Democrats charging the tax payers personnel security while defunding the police department. They claim threats and a typical false boogeyman narrative of white nationalism...Outright lies.

“A spokesperson for Minneapolis Police told FOX 9 the department does not have any recent police reports of threats against city council members.” Of course not

Congress Unites To Demand Answers From Trump On Russian Bounties In Afghanistan

[SunnySide]

Q President Trump tweeted overnight, “Intel just spoke[reported] to me…” What specifically does that mean? Who spoke to him? Did that person, in fact, give the President a full briefing in that conversation?

MS. MCENANY: So, I have no further details on the President’s private correspondence.

Q And can you tell us who is coming to the White House today, and who is going to brief those lawmakers?

MS. MCENANY: So, what I can tell you about that is that, last night, the Chief of Staff, Mark Meadows, called both Senator McConnell and Congressman Hoyer and bri- — and said that he would be briefing eight members from the committees of jurisdiction.

So there was a bipartisan invitation extended, but no further details other than that.

Q Is that briefing going to happen today, Kayleigh?

MS. MCENANY: Yes, it was ongoing at the time when I came out here — at least it had started, I think, 30 minutes prior to me coming out here.

Q But they’re going to come to the White — just — I just want to be clear about what’s happening. Members of Congress have come or are coming to the White House?

MS. MCENANY: Yes.

https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings...tm_source=link
------------------
The White House briefed several House Republicans on intelligence that Russia offered bounties to Afghan militants who targeted U.S. troops for assassination, according to Trump administration officials and congressional sources.

Seven House Republicans attended the briefing, including Reps. Mac Thornberry and Michael McCaul, ranking members on the House Armed Services and Foreign Affairs panels, respectively. A mix of other Republicans from those committees — Reps. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.), Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) and Jim Banks (R-Ind.) — also attended. Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.), who doesn't sit on either panel but leads the House Freedom Caucus, was also present.

Noticeably absent from the briefing, which are traditionally bipartisan affairs, were any Democrats, despite controlling both House panels. White House chief of staff Mark Meadows called House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) Sunday to try to schedule a briefing for Democrats but its unclear why that has yet to happen or if it will.

------------------------------

im waiting to see if the reports are true. It could have very well never been confirmed and never reported to the White House.

But come on Kayleigh ... how are you going to paint this as a bi-partisan briefing when it was not? It was just a republican briefing on a national security issue.

Id imagine Graham and Cotton and Hannity would blow a gasket claiming conspiracy and "getting on the same page" if Obama did a dem only briefing in this situation.

I believe President Trump on this whole "Russians paying Taliban bounties to whack American soldiers" dilemma.

I'm guessing the intelligence community didn't put it in his daily brief in the form of a cartoon, so he skipped over it. Everybody knows he can't read, or doesn't like reading (whichever explanation you prefer).

From 2010:“ Iran pays 1000 for each dead US Soldier Killed by the Taliban“

Interesting last administration ended up giving them pallets of cash which has been traced to proxy funding of war in Yemen and terrorist ops against Israel.

[SunnySide]

yawn ... come on chico. Youre going to bring up some 2010 stuff to try and what? Defect attention from Trump or make it seem everyone was doing it?

Its 2020, lets talk current 2020 stuff.

I know you know that the money was Iran's all along and we were ordered to give it back aka unfreeze it.

Did you know President Bush paid back 200M of the 600M back in the 90s to Iran? President Obama paid back the remaining 400M.

------------------
I personally am not all up in arms about this Russia bounty thing.

1. things have to be confirmed before any opinions made
2. appears it was included in his daily briefing report in writing in Feb
3. but trump doesnt read them and has people read it to him
4. people reading it to him only read him the "good" news
5. WH higher ups did know

Trump is such a defeated pathetic sack of skin at this point ... no one of the left needs to even spend time pointing out his daily flaws or trying to convince Trumpers of his sins. You know it. You know it deep inside.
