Yeah…..when is more accurate but that opens me up to flamers who want to color me extremely negative. But I agree.

I think we will have a hard crash during Trump’s tenure caused by years of bad practice and policy.

What do you expect #bitcoin to do if the stock market crashes hard? I’m talking about a crash that takes 3-5 years to recover.

I don’t plan on it at all but I think it’s a good discussion topic.

Should anyone pull equity out of their home and put it in bitcoin? What’s the anticipated roi if BTC is purchased today?

That’s an old commercial. I liked that as a kid like 40 years ago!

My vote for VP would be Clint Eastwood.

Indeed

Take care brother.

I don’t believe the Federal Reserve is near the end of its cycle, I believe the US is. (Look up Alexander Tytler cycle of a nation. Where do you see the US on the circle chart?)

Trump was unable to prove that the last election was a sham. An admin was able to use SQL Server Management Studio to change the vote tally without leaving a trace in the history log file. (Maybe he was pro Biden? Maybe he was threatened? Maybe bribed?) There’s NO WAY Trump can force an audit of the federal reserve - which by the way - is a rally cry and narrative that republicans have been screaming for years. POTUS alone does not have the authority. When the republicans held the house, senate, POTUS and Supreme Court they didn’t even try to force an audit. Greed and corruption have deep roots. The federal reserve answers to no one. They will give up fiat and change to a blockchain CBDC when they can have greater control over the money give or take it from you based on your behavior, beliefs, status, political bias and even the social credit score of your friends.

To answer your question, I served in the military.

Speaking of which, during the Obama administration, some important, high ranking strong and conservative military leaders were targeted and replaced with very liberal leaders. Since then, other conservative military leaders (O-5 and O-6 levels have been threatened and asked to leave the military purely based on their views expressed in social media. I was surprised at the number of liberals I worked with when I served.

Today, the US military leadership is not nearly as conservative an organization as most believe.

Bruh. I swore to defend the constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. I know the constitution well. And we have domestic enemies. That’s a fact. Several politicians have publicly stated that they want to completely rewrite the constitution.

No need to make this personal. We have a difference of opinion. I thought we were all one big happy nostr family here?

You know nothing about me and call me lazy? I’m still voting for trump. But he ain’t gonna change the US political structure. He can’t eliminate the Federal Reserve. He can’t change fractional reserve banking. Congressmen and senators with criminal records will continue to be elected. Freshmen politicians will still be forced to raise money their first year in office which will come with “strings” and the donors will own them. Politicians will continue to write laws for us and exempt themselves. They will always have top-tier healthcare for life. The government has grown every year in size and power since 1776 and Trump ain’t gonna change that. He’s not going to change the fact that 95% percent of university professors are socialists. He won’t change the existing two-party system. The national debt will continue to grow under him. He won’t balance the budget. He won’t reduce the power of the EPA which is crippling US production in many ways. He will continue to give billions of US dollars in foreign aid. Trump will do some good things, I’m 100% sure of that. But he won’t stop the natural cycle of a nation. Look up Tytlers Cycle of a Nation. Corruption is replete in BOTH parties and trust me, Trump is NOT clean as the wind-driven snow (even if he does want to sweep the forest lol).

Your enthusiasm and energy is great. Consider running for a local office and making a difference locally. I’d probably vote for you!Nationally, it would take much more authority than what a POTUS can do to clean up Washington.

Well our good conversation veered off track. My original point was, in my humble opinion, Trump is really the lesser of two evils. Sure I believe he’s a patriot at heart.

But is he an ideal candidate? Hell no!!!!!

People have a tendency to blindly and passionately “hero worship” the candidate on their side of the isle while dismissing all of their faults and shortcomings. Like I said, Stockholm Syndrome.

An ideal candidate is most likely someone who would actually not want the job.

Anyone here into #reloading?

I’ve got extra projectiles and brass from an estate sale.

Happy to ship (usps flat rate) for cheap fiat or btc.

I just need to free up space, not make a lot of money.

PM me and I can send you a spreadsheet of what I have. I have lots more than what’s in this picture.

It’s all a muppet show.

Follow the money.

You have Stockholm Syndrome.

The real powers in control wouldn’t allow all that.

Besides, a president doesn’t have the kind of power you fantasize about.

If he did, he would have done all that his first term.

This is a good step in the right direction.

Now we gotta drain the swamp.

You can’t convince me that Trump was the best R candidate nor Biden the best D candidate.

Nice. Got a name for it?

Target:

Telecom Director

Director of Customer Deployment

I know this is a long shot, but I’m going to use nostr as I envision it to be in a few years. I’m still employed but looking for a new opportunity.

I need more challenges.

With over 25 years telecom and IT infrastructure experience, I currently lead the telecom department at RRD (a B2B global enterprise). I’m responsible for all aspects of the department including the budget, monthly forecast, staff management, strategic alignment, program management and operations. While I have a deep telecom background, I’m also well-versed in many other aspects of IT infrastructure and have a bent toward efficiency as I sometimes describe myself as a continuous improvement, process development, streamline and automation expert in a telecom management role.

In addition, I also provide contract-based consulting.

Suit-speak over.

Who am I at heart?

I enjoy teaching, coaching, business operations efficiency. I enjoy bridging the gap between the business and IT. I believe IT is here to serve the business when we are a cost center.

I think strategically. I can see and avoid a train wreck a mile away. I naturally find ways to lower cost and improve service, reduce risk, increase quality and improve morale.

Please PM me if you have an opportunity. I’d be happy to chat.

Is there a browser plugin that lets you enter a handful of websites and it will scroll through them like a slideshow?

I like to start my day glancing at headlines of various websites. It would be nice to have those sites cycle on another monitor while working and being productive.
