Yeah, do you need lawyers in a political trial? This is not a civil or criminal trial in the court system. This is deranged progs foaming at the mouth, partisan hack Leaky Leighy presiding (and voting). You need a show. Facts left the building four (five?) years ago.

[randian]

SCOTUS and Congress don't care about election fraud, so why bother? In any case, the impeachment is about alleged incitement. If Trump really wants to make a case for election fraud, then release all the evidence and statistics that the courts refused to even look at.

Statement by David Schoen: “It is an honor to represent the 45th President, Donald J. Trump, and the United States Constitution,” Schoen, who was already helping Mr Trump prepare for the Senate trial, said in a statement.

Past statement regarding Epstein: “The reason I say I don’t believe it was suicide is for my interaction with him that day. The purpose of asking me to come there that day and over the past previous couple of weeks was to ask me to take over his defence," Schoen told Fox Nation.

on CNN going after Fox News’ cable carriers: “Reducing a liar’s reach is not the same as censoring freedom of speech; freedom of speech is different than freedom of reach”--

The funny thing is, casual, small minded authoritarians making retarded sophistic little rhymes about denying their fellow citizens' rights and calling anyone they disagree with liars and racists and Nazis are utterly shocked, flabbergasted and cry profusely on that fateful day when the people they defame and trample the rights of rise up, pull them out of their comfy townhouses and give them a summary trial on the sidewalk.
I imagine Madam Ceausescu was utterly flabbergasted and indignant that the rabble behaved exactly like what she said they were.

@KamalaHarris
says there will be job creation around "reclaiming abandoned land mines" in West Virginia.

“All of those skilled workers who are in the coal industry and transferring those skills to what we need to do in terms of dealing with reclaiming abandoned land mines."

https://twitter.com/dcexaminer/status/1355948408498835457

[Davod]

Reclaiming abandoned land mines sounds like minimum wage work.

[Jane]

What exactly are land mines?

[Jane]

I looked it up. They are holes used to plant explosives to get the enemy. Now that’s prescient.

[MissMarple2]

I assume she is referring to strip mines (surface mines). Probably didn't want to associate her with the word "strip+.

[lurkersusie]

This is what she’s talking about!

May 29, 2020 - 12:13 am
CHARLESTON, W.Va. — The federal government has awarded the state with around $27.2 million to develop abandoned mine land sites.

Twelve projects will benefit from the funding, which comes from the U.S. Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement. The West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection will handle the funding through its Office of Abandoned Mine Lands.

Many say $GME/RH situation is a "problem in the plumbing," implicating the structural integrity/complexity of our financial systems. If the SEC/government wants to "fix the plumbing" the number one thing they should do is ban Payment for Order Flow. [more] en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Payment_f…

PFOF is a practice that "smells bad" the moment you hear about it. Only through contorted mental gymnastics can one come up with "pro" arguments, but never in a clear enough way that you could pass it along yourself. UK outlawed it in 2012. Illegal in Canada. Why...? [more]

In 2004 letter from Citadel's attorney Jonathan G. Katz to SEC, he makes a a definitive & eloquent list of all the reasons that, "The practice of payment for order flow creates serious conflicts of interest and should be banned." Please read detail. [more] sec.gov/rules/concept/…

PFOF is at the heart of today's retail trading. Some argue PFOF should be OK as "everyone's doing it." You don't have systematic failure because one party did something in the corner. It happens exactly when everyone does it. It "smells bad" because it is bad. We can do better.

Bye bye Ted

Ted Cruz: President Trump was "Both Reckless and Irresponsible" and Did Not Prove Election Fraud in Any Court (VIDEO)

Senator Ted Cruz: “President Trump’s rhetoric, I think, went way too far over the line. I think it was both reckless and irresponsible because he said repeatedly—and he said over and over again—he won by a landslide; there was massive fraud; it was all stolen everywhere. That evidence, the campaign did not prove that in any court, and to make a determination about an election it has to be based on the evidence, and so simply saying the result you want, that’s not responsible and you’ve never heard me use language like that. What I’ve said is voter fraud is real, and we need to examine the evidence, and look at the actual facts; and in particular, what is the evidence of how much voter fraud occurred, and did it occur in sufficient quantities and in sufficient states to alter the outcome of the election. That would have been the mandate of the election commission; to assess.”

And later around the 25-minute mark, he refers to the events of January 6th, 2021 as “a terrorist attack on the United States Capital.”

Was 50 stocks restricted, now 8.

Part of this that seems lost in the outrage about this or that brokerage limiting transactions -- if these transactions are legit, then a fundamental truth is that the brokerage house can only act as your agent to buy a stock if someone who actually owns the stock is willing to sell it.

If you are going to complain about people selling naked shorts or uncovered calls, then you have to accept that if the only way for you to "buy" it is for someone to have it to sell to you, then you need to accept that you can put in an order and be told "no".
