Keywords "panic event".

I know libs are getting excited the market is down but this is a correction in a bull market. It's not the economy slowing. It's interest rates and trade, imo.

Down even more:
25,052.22 −546.52

Dow 40,000 is coming, but only after ‘a large panic event’ passes, analyst warns

“We see a large panic event taking shape now that continues into next year — the melt-up we forecasted is done,” he told MarketWatch. “Investors should be out of stocks for most of 2019.”

It's also October and on the heels of another devastating hurricane with massive casualty losses! But high interest rates are the main culprit! Hopefully just a short term correction?
I can hear Enlytend and JB cheering the stock market losses from here!

Always a sliver lining. They'll be importing labor for construction. Money coming in from out of state for real estate development. It's Florida.

• In Turkey, not in US. (Translation: Turkeys problem not ours)

Turkish embassy is legally Turkey. Just like the US embassy in Turkey is legally the USA.

• US resident, not US citizen. (Translation: Another immigrant so who cares)

He wasn't a US citizen. Why do you interpret plain facts so? The incident is getting a lot of attention.

• Saudis spend $110B on US exports (Translation: Money comes before human lives, ethics and all that stuff. Besides, they keep my family’s properties afloat financially).

Clinton's are not President. Also, Saudi Arabia is fighting a war in Libya b/c Clinton and Obama destroyed the Gov there and walked away.

Read-between-the-lines translation: And he was just a journalist anyway.

Just like the US Postal Service doesn't deliver to Indian reservations and Kavanaugh was responsible for 6-2 SCOTUS decision he wasn't part of.

Indeed, just one trouble-maker.

But America has also been supporting Saudi Arabia in its dirty war in Yemen, by continuing to provide weapons. What's happening in Yemen is a tragedy and a large-scale humanitarian crisis. Nobody cares. The only thing that matters is export revenue.
But do you realize for a second that US foreign policy is creating flows of refugees. People who didn't ask for nor deserved any of this.

Remember, everything your government does is in your name.

Not because it's Trump, but because it's a pretty disgusting and extremely violent GIF from an obviously disgusting person... Hope you remove this crap from this page...

Yeah, he's being straight pimped by Trump right now. Not going over well with a lot of his fans. It's one thing to be about the issues but he picked the wrong guy (a racist) to hook up with.

or other rappers

Obama had plenty of photo ops.

I noticed Trump stayed behind his desk, and the view of Kanye was from the side so all the camera / media were in the picture.

I've never liked Kanye but Jim Brown is a solid guy who works for his community.

You should read about what Kennedy did.

 

[lennco]

You should read about what Kennedy did.

Really? Is there video? Was it on the news and social media for the world to see?
Did it make him look like a complete idiot in front of the world and in front of the world leaders?

No? Ok then.

Trump buddies up with a black hip hop artist, who adores him, believes in his agenda, a man who has 4 million Instagram followers and is also a member of the most media savvy team in the world (The Kardashians) has dozens of photographers and reporters listening intently with bated breath, wipes much of the hurricane coverage and market correction news to second fiddle and he's the idiot? That's funny! Do you think for one second Trump is regretting today's meeting? Watching Kanye getting bullied by the left on Instagram is classic too! When will you people on the left get it?

He shut down his Instagram and Twitter. Most people get it. He's having his mental issues again, and Trump is taking advantage of it. Kanye wanting to put an end to stuff like stop and frisk, when Trump's good buddy JulieAnni, was targetting blacks with it. Trump who advocates police brutality, thinking he's the one who's going to do prison reform?

That's a well thought out written post.........and hilarious

Doesn't even make any sense, why would an African pay hundreds or thousands to come to Europe, then go back just to benefit from supposedly free health care ? If they have that kind of money, they can get good health care in their home country, or in a neighboring country.

Why not? The EU and USA Hospitals have more advanced everything, including dumb laws like “anchor baby” rights. You believe in Free Healthcare, which is fine for you as long as you and those of you supporting it pay the bill. But those of us who do not believe in it can elect to not participate with our tax dollars. But financially that doesnt work, there are not enough socialist Bernie Sanders people *yet*. I am exempt from Obamacare, but I happen to be forced into paying into the broken social medicine system where I reside outside the US, it isn’t an option. I need to pay for private insurance.

The EU and US just allow freebies, and guess what?.. they dont even allow that freebie crap here in the 3rd world! Guests who go to emergency get billed in full, and if they skip without paying outstanding tax or medical bills and are refused rentry at customs! There are no tents, just immigration prison if you violate laws. No soap or toilet paper. The stupidity isn’t with the 3rd world. If you are illegally entering, medical bills are written up immediately and expected to be paid.

45 on the Khasoggi issue just now:

If Khashoggi was murdered, it was

• In Turkey, not in US. (Translation: Turkeys problem not ours)
• US resident, not US citizen. (Translation: Another immigrant so who cares)
• Saudis spend $110B on US exports (Translation: Money comes before human lives, ethics and all that stuff. Besides, they keep my family’s properties afloat financially).

Read-between-the-lines translation: And he was just a journalist anyway.

You are clueless about overseas issues.

My US tax dollars shouldnt be used to chase foreign wars, nor protect foreign residents who get lost in foreign countries. The US wouldnt help me outside the US, people disappear all over the world daily everywhere. No US intervention unless some “Media famous” people disappear. You are on your own as a US Citizen outside the US. I had an acquiantance who was murdered. Another one I knew thrown in jail without bail without charges. Another who broke immigration laws and spent 2 months in immigration jail. Another who was deported for smoking a joint. None of this made the news. Nor should it. But the US has all this illegal alien b.s. with ankle bracelets! WTF! US Taxpayers pay for this nonsense, and the 3rd world laughs!!!!

This Journalist 100% knew the risks before entering the embassy and writing up anti SA stuff for the Washington Post opposing a regime that lops off heads. I suppose the jobs of thousands of aerospace workers making $110 billion worth of stuff to sell to SA should just be ended and lost in “protest”. That only harms the economy and tax dollars are needed. Complete idiocy. Same with stupid politicians imposing US values around the world. Iraq is a good example. Afghanistan, Libya, etc. all bipartisan failures.
