Stanford Law school students shout down a FEDERAL JUDGE invited to speak at the school's Federalist Society and the Standford Dean of DEI, when asked to quell things, says, nah...fuck you...we're gonna keep on keeping on.

The Authoritarian Left continues it's march toward, well, what all Leftists march to, all along hilariously claiming the right is the true threat to democracy and freedom.

Anyway, back to the abject lies about January 6 as some sort of coup. A bloodless coup "led" by the most fearsome of painted-faced warlords since William Wallace.

And while we do that, The Left and the Ds continue their march toward suppression of dissent.

Talent -- do you have any follow-up comments or opinions on that Florida law?

[iam416]

No. I haven’t researched further. One day I’ll be bored and look at it more

In 2018 the Trump administration eliminated regulations that required banks with $50B-$250B worth of assets to submit to regular “stress tests” along with other restrictions put in place after 2008.

Guess which bank led that lobbying effort?

Cramer recommended SVB in February. In reading the WSJ article, there are a couple of ETFs that base their market activities on Cramer's recommendations. That is, they short the stocks he lists as buys and buy the stocks he says to sell. 30% return last year.

This is idiotic risk management. You can insure your cash accounts in the national banking system for pennies. If ROKU loses $ 50B, that could have been insured for around $ 20,000. The new theory of business seems to be to take risks and then blame the Government if things go against you. Look at Sam Bankman-Fried. No controls on anything, but he did give $ 40,000,000 to the Dems (so that is some form of insurance). Do you want to bet he does less prison time than the Qanon Shaman?

[Dr. Strangelove]

Lol….for God’s sake don’t do this unless you’re curious about federal prison. Laura is a promoting a scammer who’s been around decades (just google him).

[foxhopper]

It has a no prison tax guarentee! Plus I can earn on referrals. I see zero downsides....

Can’t make this up…SVB paid out annual bonuses just hours before the Feds seized the bank

Ever wonder why the Progs adore Xi so much?

Yeah...me neither.
