How accurate are polls these days? I would not bet on them and just wait until the numbers are actually in considering that Republicans are actively and publicly looking for ways to attack democracy. The Grifter is trying to screw up mailed ballots at the USPS and the USPS is cooperating because its leadership sucks.
Other Republicans are trying to intimidate voters by saying they will send ICE to the polls. JFC Republicans hate democracy and show us how much every, single day.

Damn dude isn't ICE already a domestic terrorism force?

You can find a similar logic to my article in other areas of human history:
1.      When the Confederacy was losing the American civil war, the real estate prices of the territories not yet conquered by the Union went up, because refugees fleeing the war zone concentrated in the safe zone. However, once the entire Confederary was conquered, the real estate prices of the same areas plummeted.
 
2.      When the CCP was marching down south in Chinese Civil War from Manchuria, the real estate prices of Shanghai and Guangzhou skyrocketed due to the flooding in of northern refugees. After the total conquest of China by CCP, the real estate prices of those places plummeted, all the way to non-existence, due to totalitarian control of resources. However, totalitarian measures, are not uniquely a communist or fascist thing. As my article indicated, FDR imposed totalitarnianism - to the best of his ability, during WWII on platinum. Totalitarianism, as Jens may corroborate, is the permanent installation of wartime total mobilization. Before the Bolshevik Revolution, socialists in Europe were characterized by their anarchism, grassroots democratic movements, and opposition to government control like Bismarck's Prussian militarism. However, our dear comrade Vladmir Lenin, geniusly combined the wartime mobilization of WWI Germany, with his socialist ideology, creating a monster called Leninism - the permanent implementation of wartime mobilization, even in peacetime, as the nature of his regime. Henceforth, we have totalitarianism. The only difference, thus, between a "free" society such as the US (increasingly less free) and the Soviet Union is, the war time total mobilization actually ended, in America. Though, we Americans today are really in late Roman Republic, the legions are crossing the Rubicon - perhaps already have. ICE and federal military invade states. Surveilance of cameras and private transactions are being erected. The next Democratic President, will normalize the same totalitarian measures, to take revenge against his political enemies, and to control civilians. President Obama already did that - Department of Homeland Security invented by President GWB was wielded most effectively by our Deporter in Chief.

I'm pretty afraid that this actually will not happen. Between his USPS mail-in mass ballot rejection directives, potential to deploy ICE to "secure" polling places in critical districts, and other manipulations... I honestly think we might be fucked and no majority flip happens to put the brakes on at least some of this bullshit.
I've moved a lot and would usually skip voting when living in a district where my single vote would make no difference. And I live one of those places now. But damnit I'm recording my dissent. I hope others like me do the same. Just show up, even if you think it doesn't matter and know statistically it wouldn't. Lets pump those numbers up, even if it seems futile.

I did, but I'm from the UK brother so I had about 1,000 more years history to study as well. 🤷‍♂️ /s
I'm with you 100% I just think it's mad for you to say you don't hate him, he's fucking unhinged. Everything he does seems to be to divert from the Epstein files and to manipulate the markets to get richer.
Sorry you guys are going through it over there, although it is hurting us too, i know you guys go crazy about your fuel prices rocketing over there, we pay something like $2.40 / litre of petrol right now, $12 a gallon.
Even my kerosene at home since he's started his war in Iraq is ~$7 a gallon.
We're living in fucking crazy times!
At least we don't have ICE here, yet, just hope that SLIMEY little fuck Farage doesn't get in, in a few years time. Sentiment is not looking great for us!

How about blaming the RIGGED system that is moving just about all the $$$ UP and ONLY UP to the TOP.... Monopoly US Corporations and the filthy RICH rigging the systems so they benefit at the expense of everyone below them. Trickle down was and still continues to be a scam to profit those at the top.
Billion dollar ballrooms, illegal wars, Millions of dollars for a bluer reflecting pool, crypto scams, war mongering, ICE gets more budget than our military, fat government contracts to all the "tech-bros" Wallstreet bailouts, Outrageous CEO pay, et et. None of that is helping the regular working people in this country.
My parents worked hard for and paid for their retirement and saved and paid for their modest house. They did not have 'generational' money - some do some don't.... but in their elderly years I want them to be healthy, happy and ok for as long as possible. And they did not vote for this BS we are seeing today.
Vote for someone that is not corrupt, that actually has ideas on what needs to be changed and fixed vs. the wrecking ball to our country that we have now. Vote for people that DO NOT TAKE big corporate or techbro campaign $$$ (not just a red or a blue issue). Get the MONEY out of politics so that our voices actually mean something.

Everyone driving an ICE automobile would probably wonder why tf gas is so expensive all of a sudden.

It would have been worse under Kamala!!!! She would have invaded Iceland AND Greenland. She would have attacked Iran AND Israel. She would have nuked Canada while rising tariffs to 420.69%. She would have torn down the entire white house to build the non-white house! She would have made autism MANDATORY by forcing vaccines on children! She would have revived Epstein as a zombie-lich-king! She would have imported beef while personally killing every cow in America with her own bare hands! She would have sent masked ICE agents into people's homes!
TRUST ME BRO!!!!! Source? Fox news, X, and stormfront ofc.

I'm going to try to keep the politics in this to a min, but current and future bond rates are inextricably linked with how our the government is acting and the confidence in that government both domestically and internationally.
there is a lot of pressure on bond rates to go even higher:
* increasing inflation and low confidence in the fed to get it under control. this is mostly based on concerns that Warsh won't stand up to the administration
* lack of confidence in the secretary of the treasury Bessett has decent credentials, but he ran a hedge fund into the ground and now he controls the largest economy/banking system in human history.
* lack of confidence in the US globally, many of our allies have stopped buying our bonds or have started selling them. with fewer buyers for our bonds, the rates have to go up to attract sellers. the administration is seeking friends with governments that we historicallys haven't been friendly towards and is sowing more and more distrust with the allies that are both among the prosperous countries in the world and who we have had coalitions with for 80 years.
* more detailed inflationary pressures:
* oil prices because of market uncertainty (both with treats to Canada and the Iran war, Venuzuela does not correct for either of these)
* commodity pricing (grain, meat) are going up becuase they are highly dependant on fuel prices for production and processing
* tariffs/taxes on consumer goods
* increasing US debt for many reasons:
* war/defense spending
* decades of unpaid for tax cuts mostly to the wealthy
* DHS/ICE spending (unpaid for)
* decreasing amount of tax revenue as immigrants leave and quit paying in and we are losing high paying tech jobs to outsourcing and AI
* increasing medicare/social security costs with an aging population
* paying back tarriffs
Burry is saying a more reasonable 30 year treasury bond rate is closer to 7-8%.

Let me introduce everyone to ICE Pact

Crazy thing is that this would be achievable if not for the brain dead stupid stuff the GOP has done just in the last 1.5 years.
We need to shave 1, maybe 2% of GDP off the deficit for the deficit to be similar to GDP growth. That's $300-600 Billion.
Ending the war and the increases in military spending since 2024/2025 gets us probably $200 Billion. Cut ICE back to its previous budget gets us $50-$100 Billion. Ending the tariffs will reduce revenue but we're refunding that money anyway, and it will reduce inflation which will allow bond yields to come down, reducing what we pay in interest.
Those 3 things get us at least halfway there without even touching taxes. Corporate profits are like $5 Trillion with a T per year now, a $300 billion tax increase would barely be a blip, and that gets us the other 1% of GDP we need.
And if we actually tried we could do even better, this is just off the top of my head.

They still have people.
oh yah, I forgot USA govt also kills people using ICE

META, AMZN, CRM, ROP, SNA, PAYX, EPAM, CPRT, ICE, ULTA, ACN, RMD, FDS, GEV

Anything of those applications are covered by helicopters, that are cheaper, have more pilots, and a great deal more variety. Joby and Archer compete at a low tier, I.e if a few execs come in with more than weekender bags, these EVTOLs will not be able to accommodate without multiple trips to and fro. In specific markets where noise and emissions become important, they may have applications. But we are far far away from helicopters being banned. Further than regular ICE ground vehicles being banned. I can’t see 1%ers using them like Ubers, because they’re not necessarily ubiquitous or luxurious, and airports already have so much infrastructure around getting those folks from their private plane to their penthouse, beach house, etc. If that’s what you’re imagining.

But Trump is also willing to kill protesters. How many people have ICE killed?

The same consumers of media that eat up Charlie Kirk and Asmongold, and Alex Jones and Andrew Tates media. Plus all the people in the poor regions who want affordable bread and good work, who are too uneducated to understand what is actually going on with the complex economy. And its turns out campaigning on work and bread is very effective. "Arbeit und Brot" was used by a certain German during the great great depression. The campaign explicitly promised that the government would end unemployment, stabilize the currency, and ensure affordable, basic food necessities (like bread and eggs) for every "Aryan" family. I think you can guess who's german goverment that was, Adolf Hitlers.
Unemployment? Previous goverments fault and immgrants! Trumps ICE and tarrifs goverment he promised. Economy? All these other goverments and previous goverments faults! Tariffs (his followers dont realize American citizenspay them and that they have been proven not to bring the jobs home)! Affordable and basic life necessities trump promised to lower the cost of things through ways...
Those people in the poor regions though were able to be swayed by Bernie Sanders though when he was there. But the problem is Bernies ideas would hurt the rich investors who lobby so someone like him cant get in. Trump who runs on lies to the lower class can though!
