It is my personal view that pre-emptive pardons, i.e., pardons for those who may have committed federal crimes for which they have not been indicted, would not withstand legal challenges. Nixon's Pardon was of this nature. It was never tested. Nixon is deceased, and was never indicted, so...

Here is another interesting statistic. According to this article in the ABA Journal, Trump has been named in more than 3500 lawsuits. How is that possible in any one human's lifetime? [see...

So far as we are aware, CNN does not intentionally lie. When ted Cruz tells you the election was stolen, he is intentionally lying, Ditto Trump, and Ditto Fox news commentators. They all know the election was not stolen; that Trump lost in a Biden/Harris landslide. That's the difference right...

This is the successor to Ever Bank.

Trump himself has said that what is important is perception, which may, of course, not align with truth.

That's a huge misconception! The uninformed, or those intentionally wanting to mislead, started posting this on social media and here, on ET. It's been repeated over and over; yet nothing could be further from the truth. Both the redacted Mueller report and the subsequent report of the Senate...

You've become blind to nuance and are seeing in black and white when the world includes all the colors of the spectrum.

Yes. That is precisely what you are saying. I admit that I know little about the Antifa movement but what little I do would suggest to me that they are not insurrectionists. Please see for example: https://www.nytimes.com/article/what-antifa-trump.html I'm curious. What would you...

they were trying to stop certification of the electoral college vote. If a bank robber gets shot and killed before he gets out the door with the money because of poor planning on his part, would you say in Jim Jordan fashion, "He got no money! so It didn't Happen!"? If an insurrection fails to...

Trump is the self appointed leader of an insurgent party. He holds Republicans in Congress in a grip of fear. They are fearful that he will ruin their political careers if the do not show obeisance to him because he controls a critical sub-constituency of the Republican party. If he is removed...

~ 70 million. Cruz and Hawley will be become the darlings of a new political party, the AVP or "American Values Party" formed from a coalition of evangelicals, gun rights nuts, seditionists, white nationalists and conspiracy theorists. The leftovers from the GOP will return to their roots as...

Before it happens, the market has to go to ridiculous highs so that even Grandmothers are getting short (check with your grandmother.) Then, squeeze #1: all the shorts that thought the market was way too high have to be squeezed out with one last thrust to the moon. Then when the selling...

zerohedge = zero credibility

Nominal, negative yields are a tool of central banks that charge a fee on excess reserve balances. So far anyway, you are unlikely to encounter bonds with a negative nominal yield (I think). Germany sold 30 yr bonds at a zero coupon rate in 2019. They sold initially, I believe , at slightly...

??????????????

Through force of habit we are all, the media included, used to speaking of the President as the standard bearer of the party under whose banner he ran and got elected. Trouble now is Trump is neither conservative nor liberal neither Republican nor Democrat. No lable fits other than Sociopath...

Yes, extremely impressive resume. But look between the lines. How can any educated person question the 2020 Presidential Election results? Hawley's blind support of Trump's call for an investigation into the election results is clearly political in the absence of any evidence of significant...

He supports right and the wrong moves equally so long as they advance his political career. He can't use lack of intelligence, education, or opportunity as an excuse. He epitomizes everything that is to be despised in our worst politicians who are devoid of ethical or moral guidance. When you...

Interesting article. Nice analysis. In most respects I'm in agreement, however I think Gave is wrong with respect to the ultimate effect Covid social spending. This is the only kind of spending that could have helped under the circumstances. Spending on infrastructure, as China did in...

Your confused, as usual.
