Thermobaric bombs are real and even normal bombs can do this. (There’s a WW2 song which ends “and all they could find were spots/hundreds and hundreds of spots.“) Not clear that this is a war crime; war is horrible and bombs are part o

Yeah, but 2 things can both be true: 1 The Epstein story has an interesting Mossad angle, maybe they contacted him or even paid him 2 Lunatic antisemites (and probably many bots) are overrunning the internet with medieval-style antisemitism

I work in the field and I think he is quite good at providing a fair layman’s overview. He’s also famous (or notorious) for having few barriers in terms of who he reads/responds to.

How much of that is shares as opposed to treasuries, MBS etc?

In theory this could be true. Is the US government actually doing anything specifically to prop up equity values?
