Gold have been rising more than double the rate of S&P over twenty years. You conveniently picked 8 years ago from the time when gold peaked.
#47 | POSTED BY RAY

You conveniently picked 20 years ago. In the last ten years, it hasn't come close to beating the S&P. At best, you are at a 2% yearly gain in Gold since 2008.

If you invested in 2011-2013, you are still down.

Bonds are a safe haven.

She had two good ones:
1. Russia helped Trump illegally.
2. Comey lied about new emails days before the election.
Both true and probably cost her just enough to lose.
The difference of course is that Hillary won the popular vote. Trump won't.

Go ahead and strategize to win the popular vote, win it and then cry because the EC determines who wins the election.....dope.

1. That's literally what his report said. "Russia helped Trump. But insufficient evidence of Collusion with Trump."
2. Comey lied about the Hillary emails. The DOJ admitted it.

You would know all of this if you watched anything but Fox. And I mean LITERALLY anything.

Yep. For all of his faults he's a brilliant political tactician and he will continue to be re-elected until he decides to retire.

Julius Caesar was a brilliant politician and tactician too.

Trump stole from Veterans and Conservatives call it good business.

It's funny how Trump is amoral,
but pedophilia is AOK by you guys

#19 | POSTED BY ANDREAMACKRIS

Wait, really? A lawyer doing his job means he supports pedophilia?

And its immoral, not amoral, you hack.

I love an article that points out facts that cause both parties to cringe. Reps will hate this because illegal immigrants are taking up our resources. Dems will hate this because it completely disproves their "illegal immigrants don't take our resources". Well, the quote "On Tuesday, voters will decide on a $107 million bond project for Dumas Independent School District, to which Cactus belongs. It includes a brand-new elementary school for Cactus, in part to accommodate all the recent immigrant children. The bond package is expected to pass." proves you to be 100% wrong.

When you write "immigrant", why do you write like it's "illegal immigrant"? These people in the district are there legally. They are paying taxes. They are making a company profitable.

So what the hell are you talking about?

#9 | Posted by Petrous, As I remember the words of the 13th Amendment, a term as a slave would be a serious motive not to engage in criminal activity. Remember about 70% of prison inmates are convicted of "nonviolent" crimes. About the same amount are under 40 years old. Get some trailers, some trackers worn, and put these guys to work harvesting or what ever. Yes, they could walk away, but then they could also go back to the big cage after they were apprehended.

Wait, your idea for ending illegal immigration is slave labor?

You forgot that the low unemployment rate means there are few to fill those positions.

Thats how wages go up ....

#3 | POSTED BY ANDREAMACKRIS

Really? Because they aren't. Wages are BARELY keeping up with API increases.

The media is trying to stop people from talking about Eric Ciaramella the Whistleblower because they don't want people to know Eric Ciaramella the Whistleblower is the whistleblower. And the media can't punish anyone for saying Eric Ciaramella the Whistleblower is the whistleblower because that would admit Eric Ciaramella the Whistleblower is the whistleblower. The reason they don't want to admit Eric Ciaramella the Whistleblower is the whistleblower is because that would be admitting a coup attempt.

Someone is likely going to go after the whistleblower and his family because of Trump, Rand Paul, Trump Jr, and the other lackeys.

The polls seem to say otherwise.

I think even Hillary could beat Trump right now.

The worst part of that was not because Donald bragged about grabbing things, but that he was proud he hit on married women.
Prior to 2016, Republicans thought that inappropriate touching and adultery were horrible things, just horrible. In excusable, in fact.
All it took for them to change their minds was....What? You tell me. I have mu own ideas I'm glad to share.

It should, but for reasons unrelated. Democrats just went full blue in a state where the blue governor is a blackface wearing dude known as Coonman", and the lieutenant governor has been accused of two rapes the state assembly opted to ignore.
When blue voters throw women and people of color under the bus in a ballot tantrum, no red stater is safe from being voted out.

Were short term profits really more important than the company's reputation?

Companies aren't people. People are in charge.

The question should be:
Were short term profits for themselves really more important to a few people in charge than the risk to the company's reputation?

Follow Up:
Why wouldn't they be?

Last I saw, Trump won the Presidency as a fact based on our voting system yet Liberals everywhere still to this day say he's not their President. But now that you have him somewhere you want him, all of a sudden he's the President. Partisan haters sound like the least intelligent people in the country and that's compared to even the most mentally-challenged person who actually has a valid reason for a low intelligence.

Now we know how Trump got elected.

Wow, those numbers are much lower than Obama's. Goes to show many more Reps are willing to take facts and actions into account instead of blind obedience. Just goes to show how bad politics have gotten and how both parties and their followers are terrible for this country.

#21 | POSTED BY HUMTAKE

Ok, Boomer.

Donald Trump Jr has released the name of the alleged Whistleblower along with his picture.

#40 The problem with nailing him for that is that it's virtually impossible to prove that he did "remember" something at a particular moment. Yes, we all know he did, but that doesn't mean we can prove it.
It would take an extraordinarily aggressive prosecutor to go after him for that and while Barr is aggressive he certainly isn't going in that direction.

#41 | POSTED BY JOE

Yes, there is virtually no chance of getting him on criminal charges or contempt.

Nor should they. It sets a precedent for future witnesses to stick with their lies if they are contradicted and the lie is something they could possibly "not recall".

If they stick with the lies, then they should be prosecuted. Or if it is a completely obvious fabrication, then they should be prosecuted.

I don't like it. But from a practical standpoint, it's necessary.

Virginia Democrats campaigned on a Green New Deal.

It apparently worked.

Socialism for me, not for thee!

Fox News front page post election coverage this morning:

"Far-Left, anti-biz candidates seem to lose after Amazon dumps cash into race" in Seattle

Not seeing much on Penn, Virginia or Kentucky...

Wonder why?

They also ignored the Sondland story and instead have stories about Sondland's previous testimony about not remembering a Quid Pro Quo.
