It would be interesting to see what their algorithms flag as white supremacist content. I wonder if using the term illegal immigrant instead of undocumented immigrant would get you flagged.

It's also been made very clear in the past that the federal government has the right to ask additional questions on the census beyond just residency. https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/decennial-census/about/census-constitution.html Questions beyond a simple count are Constitutional It is...

It's funny how democratic leaders had no problems saying Muslims & white supremacist terrorists whenever the New Zealand attack occurred, but they can't say Christians & radical Islamic terrorists after the Sri Lanka attack. It just doesn't fit the narrative they want to push.

It appears the Sri Lankan authorities had prior knowledge of the attacks. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/sri-lanka-police-chief-had-warned-of-suicide-attack-on-indian-embassy-10-days-ago/ar-BBW98pG?li=AAggbRN Even as a series of blasts ripped through Sri Lanka, killing more than 160...

https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2019/apr/21/sri-lanka-explosions-dozens-killed-and-hundreds-injured-in-church-and-hotel-blasts No one has claimed responsibility for the attacks but Sri Lanka’s defence minister, Ruwan Wijewardene, said the culprits had been identified and were religious...

You mean the attorney that was appointed by Obama and asked to step down by Trump? Yeah... I'm sure she's impartial. :rolleyes:

It's my understanding that a normal citizen has the right to make a citizen's arrest if they witness a crime being committed. I wonder if these individuals were within their rights to arrest someone that had crossed the border illegally? Doesn't an asylum seeker have to apply for asylum before...

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/02/your-money/stock-market-after-hours-trading.html If you had bought the SPY at the last second of trading on each business day since 1993 and sold at the market open the next day — capturing all of the net after-hour gains — your cumulative price gain would be...

Lebron was allowed to go straight to the NBA out of high school. Wilt had to wait 4 years before entering the NBA. He would have had more career points if it weren't for that rule because he has a higher career scoring average. It's tough comparing players from different eras. Wilt averaged...

When he was a day trader, Davis said, he was able to take advantage of inefficiencies in the market and make money off of them. Now, algos compensate for them almost instantaneously. That's the way of the world. You evolve or die.

Stock prices are driven by supply & demand. If a stock's value goes to zero, there are more losers than winners. If a stock's value increases 1000%, there are more winners than losers. The only way trading stocks would be considered a zero sum game is if they always returned to a baseline value.

If part of a law is ruled to be unconstitutional, can it be separated out, or does it invalidate the entire law? Has there been a precedent set in the past with a similar law?

@Risepoint1879 Thanks for posting your Tradervue info. I've now changed your password and stolen your credit card info. :D Just kidding. You probably shouldn't post info like this online though. ;)

Our population under the age of 18 outnumbers our police officers and active military by about 35 to 1. If you remove the suicides from the equation, our active military and police officers were about 22 time more likely to be killed than someone under the age of 18. To put things further into...

You should be fine then. You can't deduct the loss, but it's added to the cost basis of the secondary position you took. So you would've received credit for it whenever you sold the position. At least that's my understanding of how the rule works.

https://www.marketwatch.com/story/understanding-the-wash-sale-rules-2015-03-02 The only good news about wash-sales is that your disallowed loss doesn’t just go up in smoke. Instead, it gets added to the basis of the replacement securities. When you sell them, your disallowed loss effectively...

What a waste of 40 million dollars.
