"Their Number One Target Is Trump" | Patrick Bet-David

[@tomf429]

I sat outside in a restaurant in Frederick, MD, which is a bedroom community for thousands of government agency employees. They all have many things in common. Most are college-educated. Most have good government jobs, great benefits including pensions and lifelong medical benefits, plenty of time off, etc. They look to retire early, then, get a job with a government contractor so they can qualify for SS by working another few years - then, retire comfortably. These are all Harris voters. They do not want to rock the boat. They do no want to be thrown out into the real world. They like big government because, for them, it's an easy life. You can't blame them. However, the world that they enjoy cannot exist longterm. It's either deal with it now, or, deal with it when the USG defaults and can no longer afford to support them.

Foreign aid - GONE, Foriegn war funding - GONE, all aid to non citizens - GONE, HALFWAY THERE? ALL Federal departments budgets trimmed 10% in 2024 while deeper cuts are evaluated. The US Senate and US Congress budgets trimmed 50% immediately. That would get us on track to a Government for the people and by the people.

Foreign aid will never be gone, not even under Trump. You think he put that tiny hat on and kissed the wall for fun? Israel owns the white house and they will always get their bloody shekels. Parasites.

Only problem is that it is CONGRESS that makes the budgets. Cutting government size and eliminating departments (such as the NEA, etc) are the ONLY options.

Government policy is to spend your current budget plus 10%. As Warren Buffet says, mandate the budget be balanced annually or the entire group of elected leaders (Prez, Senators and Congressmen) are no longer eligible for re-election. OF course these same folks would have to vote that in...Not going to happen! Election 2024, Game on, Vote Wisely, Ammo up

From my time in the military. One thing i learned, that many different federal institutions do, coming to the end of the fiscal year, in October. They go on a mad dash, spending spree. Because they want to keep the same level of funding the next fiscal year. They will spend money on nonsense, just so they keep the same level of funding next year. They should start there.

As a newbie investor, it’s essential for you to have a mentor to keep you accountable. Ruth Ann Tsakonas is my trade analyst, she has guided me to identify key market trends, pinpointed strategic entry points, and provided risk assessments, ensuring my trades decisions align with market dynamics for optimal returns.

[@BensonTati]

I managed to grow a nest egg of around 120k to over a Million. I'm especially grateful to Adviser Ruth Ann Tsakonas, for her expertise and exposure to different areas of the market.

[@ElizabethHansick]

I don't really blame people who panic. Lack of information can be a big hurdle. I've been making more than $200k passively by just investing through an advisor, and I don't have to do much work. Inflation or no inflation, my finances remain secure. So I really don't blame people who panic.

[@BensonTati]

Without a doubt! Ruth Ann Tsakonas is a trader who goes above and beyond. she has an exceptional skill for analyzing market movements and spotting profitable opportunities. Her strategies are meticulously crafted based on thorough research and years of practical experience.

[@IbrahimKone-ix4qi]

What country replaces the USA? Most Americans of decades have wanted the USA to stop subsidizing other nations. Free trade should be protected by all. Security and military support should be funded by all. Americans are tired of of young men bleeding and the middle class being taxed to pay other countries bills.

We need an ATF because revenue from alcohol and tobacco stamp taxes and the federal regulation and taxing of firearms are all necessary for the operation of the federal government. The ATF has been in existence since Abraham Lincoln was president. Further, the IRS is necessary for those who received taxable federal income and federal benefits. Our federal government was a party to those economic transactions.
