Step 1: Tribunals Step 2: Step 3: "Democracy"
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez just promised "many, many investigations" to round up the huge number of "criminals" that Democrats see in their political opponents. None of this bodes well for the Republic as we restart the type of J6 show trials that marked the prior Democratic House.

At first glance I thought that said "Head of Marco" & I was gonna talk to you about the new menu @ Snook Inn.
Been waiting for the right time to announce it.

Hope you're killing it trading all the mispriced option vol.
Replying to @MSGCapital
If you think that option vol price is representative of any kind of reality I have a 30% rate credit card I can sell you as well

Why does ANY state issue driver's licenses to foreign citizens in the county illegally? Imagine sneaking into a country & then having the balls to waltz into their government offices and expect a driver's license.
Illegal aliens are ineligible for drivers licenses in FL. They are also ineligible for other forms of government ID, and nonprofits are prohibited from issuing ID to them as well. Florida also doesn’t recognize out-of-state IDs for illegals aliens. Lawful permanent residents can get a drivers license in Florida and in every other state.

Wherever you are, take a look around at the generation older than you. Are they healthy & active or unhealthy & sedentary? Do they walk/bike/exercise or ride scooters/smoke/drink? Ask yourself, "is that how I want to age?" & then surround yourself with like minded influences. – at Utah, USA
Of course having money and access to top quality medical care are outsized contributors to this stat, but maintaining an active lifestyle and prioritizing time outside does make a big difference. Posted while seated in front of a screen, indoors.

Thought experiment: What if the CFTC capped option volatility? Let's say I could never "charge" >15% to sell a soybean option, regardless of the underlying risk. What effect would that have on the market when realized vol is 25%?
Let’s cap credit card rates at 10%. Take action on affordable housing. Protect rural hospitals. End price gouging. Democrats have the bills ready. @SenWarren says now it’s up to Trump to work with us and get things done.

Back in the pit report day opens were either gap & fade or gap & go. We'd be swapping & updating opening calls up until 930a.

Really makes me wonder what report driven price action was like before algos. I’m obviously way too young but would the move be more spaced out throughout the day? Or pretty similar to the algo?

To this day, no one can explain the argument FOR not deporting foreign citizens convicted of violent crimes. Isn't that the easiest slam dunk? You're a violent shithead in the country illegally? Gotta go home.
On May 28, ICE lodged a detainer asking Illinois authorities not to release Shageldi Bashimov, an illegal alien from Turkmenistan, who had been convicted for aggravated battery with use of a deadly weapon. He had been sentenced to two years in prison in Chicago. Illinois sanctuary politicians refused to honor the detainer, RELEASING this violent felon back onto the streets without notifying ICE. Sanctuary politicians care so much about illegal aliens that they’d rather release a convicted violent felon than cooperate with federal law enforcement. These reckless sanctuary policies are only going to endanger more innocent Americans.
