I was once stuck in traffic in Berlin thanks to Obama.
He turned me into a newt.
Did you get better, though?

There was a long concerted effort to disable all the accountability mechanisms. A massive failure across the board, at every level, in every party. Now that the entire justice system is broken, the American system is being dismantled and looted. 2024 was fatal. Enjoy the slide into the abyss.
I think we're realizing that the accountability was never there, prior presidents simply had a sense of dignity. Ultimately only congress and scotus can intervene. But America decided to vote in the January 6 guy and a congress that wouldn't serve as a check on his power.
Yeah, most of the vaunted "checks and balances" in the US constitution either come down to a gentlemen's agreement, or depend on either the nonexistence of political parties, or parties being crosscut by sectional loyalties that haven't really been a factor in US politics for over 100 years.

#104Yet if the average corporate person does insider trading it comes with a prison sentence not pricing. It’s wild how banana republic level corrupt the US is all of a sudden. Really went from 0 to 100 in months
Generally the SCOTUS majority seems to feel "It's ok if our president does it." when it it comes to most things.
The few times they disagree they let it stand (like tariffs) and allows the government to collect illegal taxes from the people, and then just shrug at the end with "well guess that was wrong"... and the citizens get nothing back.

How do some third graders in Alabama deserve this? How do my 22-year-old waiter friends in rural Texas deserve this?
What exactly did they do to deserve this?

The algorithmic trading firms were already doing this via scraping. What I’m curious about is if they’re going to also impose a slight delay between when posts show up in the API vs when they’re posted on the website.
thats math bots reading trades and making best guesses.
probably detremental to the market as a whole but not fundamentally illegal -- they're just watching really, really, really closely.
DJT is selling access to stuff that he knows will move the market, and may only be done just to move the market. wholesale graft, and depending on who benefits, possibly treason.
