The same System that rushed to protect Citadel and other billionaires allowed Jeffrey Epstein to prey on underage girls for decades.

I guess I wouldn't have predicted this to be the thing that's actually gotten far-left and far-right politards in office to actually unite in a "fuck those guys" stance, but here we are with AOC and Cruz agreeing on something. Life is strange.

Lol it lasted about an hour. I won’t hold my breath that anyone is held accountable.
I am happy to work with Republicans on this issue where there’s common ground, but you almost had me murdered 3 weeks ago so you can sit this one out.

Happy to work w/ almost any other GOP that aren’t trying to get me killed.
In the meantime if you want to help, you can resign. https://t.co/4mVREbaqqm

Mind numbing ......... un-armed people roaming around with flags wanting to voice their opinion to members of congress .......is now attempted murder. Of course she only has 9 years left anyway, given catastrophic climate change.
People were armed. A security guard was murdered. These are facts. Enjoy!
r/wallstreetbets is back. They actually weren't shut down by reddit, they went private on their own.
This is an interesting post:
🤡🌎:
- Citadel received $200 million from taxpayers money in 2008 bailout.
- Bernanke, who granted the bailout, now works for Citadel.
- Citadel paid Yellen nearly $1 million “speaking fees”.
- Yellen now advices Biden on the GME situation where Citadel was losing on shorts.— Ben Kaufman (@_benkaufman) January 29, 2021
So what is the endgame of this? I get the initial reasoning was to hurt the short sellers, but what is next? Once people stop buying, and the people who made the most get out of their positions to cash in, causing everyone else to try and get out to not lose a bunch, won't the stock eventually return back to where it was holding prior?

Trump has spent his career with these people. He never gave a rat's ass about flyover country until it suited him. He's as swamp as the rest.

Casino-like swings in stock prices of GameStop reflect wild levels of speculation that don’t help GameStop’s workers or customers and could lead to market instability. Today I told the SEC to explain what exactly it's doing to prevent market manipulation. https://t.co/NWaZe1jFVb pic.twitter.com/MAbjHcq47i

LOL at all the Bernie dipshits, that fell for Biden's pandering.
And to those who fell for Warren.

Yes. As usual, the suckers that come in at the end will basically be funding the gains for everyone who got in at the beginning.
Wouldn't surprise me if the biggest and earliest pushers for this weren't playing a classic pump-n-dump scheme and were just hoping enough people bought to push it up like 25% or something.
It's brilliant, really. In today's environment, there's so much animosity and disgust with Wall Street and Rich People that average schmuks voluntarily torched their money on a completely transparent ponzi scheme. It may not be as much fun when their $2000 paper gain turns into a $2000 real loss.
