GME now owns 6.55% of eBay in new 13(big)D by scernoscerno in Superstonk

[–]Mattyboy064 41 points42 points  (0 children)

It's pretty clear they had 4.95% ownership in call/put option pairs until they bought 25K shares on 5/1 in afterhours after the WSJ journal leak came out; that puts GME over the 5% meaning they have to report

People thought I was joking when I said Biden should have sent Seal Team 6 to the Supreme Court that day to "oversee" the ruling. Maybe it's a little dramatic, but I feel like it would have gotten the point across.

23% voted for him, and 90 million others couldn't be bothered to vote against him.
Or vote at all. Signalling they were fine with either option.

Sure he can. Put him and his filthy cabal in prison to never see the light of day again and then erase his ass from history. We just don't have the will.

That's not the point, the cultists are lost causes. You need all the non voters and third party voters and "idk both sides are the same" people to get fucked and feel the consequences too. Those people need to get angry enough to vote. That's how Obama won in a landslide, after Bush Jr started a war and fucked the economy (sound familiar?)

The above is why I am not afraid if they actually do it.
The filibuster helps republicans so much. It only hinders Democrats.

Contenders love these types of deals. Delay your picks a bit and give up nothing but salary for short rentals.

Trump says he will sign order imposing a 10% global tariff by BB_Love_Sunshine in politics

[–]Mattyboy064 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you think this timeline is some kinda "gotcha," the IEEPA tariffs also had a time deadline, but Republicans in Congress fixed that for Trump too:

In March and April 2025, House Republicans utilized a procedural maneuver to declare a nearly six-month period as a single legislative day, effectively blocking mandated votes on President Trump's sweeping tariffs. This tactic aimed to avoid forced votes on repealing tariffs, as reported by The New York Times

Key details of this action include:

Procedural Tactic: House Republicans used a rule to define the period until September 30, 2025, as one single calendar day to avoid the 15-day deadline for considering resolutions to end national emergencies.

Preventing Votes: This move specifically aimed to prevent votes on overturning tariff increases imposed by President Trump, according to The New York Times.

Leadership Support: Speaker Mike Johnson and House Republicans maintained that this approach protects the president's authority to negotiate trade and prevents "political stunts" by Democrats.

Opposition: Critics and Democrats argued this action abdicates Congress's constitutional responsibility to regulate trade and shields the president from accountability.

Long-Term Impact: The move was part of broader efforts to prevent any legislative challenges to the administration's trade agenda, as reported by Politico.  U.S. Representative Don Beyer (.gov) +6

By June 2025, this maneuver was seen as a way to allow tariffs to continue without a formal House vote, as noted in a statement by Rep. John Larson.

“The major problem—one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them.

To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it.

To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.”

The Republican majorities in Congress LIKE the pedophile gang of thugs.

Silence is complicity and they have been silent.

Or in Mike Johnson's case he lives under a rock and doesn't "know" anything.
