Hmm, heavily populated strongly "vote blue" areas...that didn't get around to reporting their high crime data. Nothing to see here...

==== For some people, being a compulsive liar is an unfortunate personality defect, and it only impacts those closest to the person suffering from such a condition. However, when it applies to Tim Walz, it becomes a very real and very dangerous issue. You can’t help but wonder what else it is that Tim Walz has lied about. ====

Is Tim Walz a pathological liar?

He lies when there is no point in lying.

$95 billion in the red...FOR THE DAY! #bidenomics #kamunism

Strap In! #bitcoin

Wow - that is aggressive...although surprised it isn't 50 bps pre-election #bitcoin

Living this right now. One couple in our small group just had their RV stolen from an RV storage facility. They found it trashed and littered with both drugs and live rounds (no firearms there because they were probably actively using those to commit crimes elsewhere). We love Colorado and Denver, but what the current administration is allowing is criminal...just like most every other Blue State governor and legislators. I'd like to purchase another home in a red state (like Texas, Tennessee, or South Carolina...too windy in Wyoming), but then I remember that all other assets are 💩 coins relative to #bitcoin Just do simple analytics, you twits. Your policies are destroying our economy and making it dangerous for your citizens. I've started carrying again when we go out...and yes, I have a permit. And if things really go south...I have my own reloader!

Seems like it would have to be a metal mallet - to ensure brain death to actually vote for Cackling Kamala.

Been using Safeco insurance for many years, but they keep jacking up prices. When they put themselves up against other companies like Traveler's and American Modern, they still have the better deal. But as an example, they raised my cabin insurance over 70%...two years in a row! First reason was COVID supply shock/cost of replacement materials and service, etc. Second reason was now saying at greater fire risk. Now I see they've jacked up our home/auto insurance (for a 2015 Mini countryman and 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee)...difference is about $1,350 for the year. Who else should I bid? Allstate, State Farm, etc have always been more expensive. Not sure if Geico covers everything...and concerned about denial of claims...even though we've rarely had to make claims in our 35+ years of carrying insurance. #asknostr

The extent of the insidious capture never fails to astound me...even though we've witnessed it for at least 8 years (arguably 16 years).

I guess we could always address our concern by stopping all funding immediately. Gets us out of a forever war (unless it escalated to WW3) and allows US taxpayers to keep a few debased pennies still in their pocket. Gee - wonder who would be too concerned if we did that??

I've had a Swan IRA since early 2022. I'm debating moving over to Unchained...especially while Unchained running their special (through Aug 15th) and waiving significant fees. You look at review sites and Swan outranks Unchained. So I would like some first-person experienced input. If you are an Unchained client... - Would you happily make the same choice? - Do you have an Unchained IRA? - What other Unchained products do you use? I am considering making this move because... - Swan still doesn't allow you to hold your own keys for a Bitcoin IRA due to lack of "regulatory clarity" if the IRS comes after you due to unfettered access to your Bitcoin (McNulty case). FYI, that isn't completely true...Swan will allow you to do a Checkbook IRA, but Unchained seems to provide a better "design" with the 2-of-3 multisig to allow them to audit transactions without them having control. - When Swan went through their layoffs, they got rid of a lot of people providing the main reason for me staying so loyal to Swan (Dante, Callahan, Livera, etc). I valued Swan because of their significant contribution to Bitcoin education. - Love him or not, Cory also made some great calls on rug-pulling companies. He has also been a great ambassador on MSM as he was making those calls. I haven't noticed whether there has been fallout since Swan itself "got out over their skis" and gambled on price to the point they need to now make headcount/budget cuts. I do think there are still some great people at Swan - Lubka is always great and responsive and their support team is outstanding and highly competent. Their IRA and transaction fees are also very reasonable (and no fees to move to self-custody for non-IRA BTC). They also have ACH! I can't believe Unchained still doesn't have that capability? Anyway, I'd love some thoughts on the Unchained IRA and Unchained in general. I like several of their folks, also...although was disappointed when Parker moved on (but like what he is doing at Zaprite...although I can't afford it for the transaction level of my own business). This is the first time I've tagged people to encourage their input in the conversation, but I know there are some strong opinions from the likes of @Marty Bent and @ODELL. #bitcoin #ira #unchained #swan #multisig
