You are too kind. AH is pretty neat. Fifteen years ago I would never have imagine I would be in regular contact by WhatsApp or text with someone I met on the internet. Now hardly a day goes by without a WhatsApp from someone I met on AH. Thanks Jerome. You are doing a great job telling your...

Glad you’re getting this posted Jerry. Truly an incredible hunt and amazing adventure! Look forward to the rest of your story.

USMCA is being renegotiated this year into two or three bilateral deals. America and Mexico have been working on their deal since last spring. Canadian leadership doesn’t want this to happen and seem to be ignoring the obvious. The bridge is nothing more than another piece tossed onto the...

The S&L crises was a carry over from the oil bust of the 80’s. Banks went down as well but were primarily in oil states. Continental Illinois and SeaFirst were the only two significant banks outside the oil states. S&L’s in oil states were already in trouble. Nationally S&L’s bought junk...

American banks became a free for all during the 1920’s. The Great Depression changed that. Glass Steagall separated investment banking from commercial banking. Much of Glass Steagall was revoked in the 90’s allowing commercial banks back into the investment banking sphere. It didn’t take them...

Is it possible that investors prior to putting up $4B have actually hired professionals within the industry to do due diligence that have led the investors to believe that Oklahoma is the best location for the smelter. Or is it more likely they used a dartboard and chose Oklahoma. I don’t...

Pretty hilarious post regarding the Washington Post employees that were laid off bemoaning their fate.

You can rest easy now. Your rant forced Trump to apologize.

Protestors can protest on public property. Journalism 101. Journalists can cover stories on public property. That’s why so many news stories are covered/videoed from the sidewalk. Can a protestor walk into your home to protest. Absolutely not. It is private property. Can a journalist walk into...

Agree. I worked on Capitol Hill when the Dept of Education was being created. (SALT II treaty and DOE were the two major topics of the day). At the time America was considered the top country in the world in education. Last I looked America was somewhere in the 20’s. Taking education away from...

Added some btc at 78k. Not sure if the April lows will provide support or if it will fall through. Looked like a good buying opportunity with markets down.

I wonder if the AH member who thinks Don Lemmons arrest is wrong was concerned about journalism when a journalist was arrested for going into the Capitol on January 6 and recording the events of the day.

That was my question too. Why would DNI show up for an FBI warrant service. There was no photo shoot that I am aware of. Just a photo of DNI in a dark area talking on the phone. Possibly evening. If it is evening and not time of the warrant service then was she called in due to something that...
