What’s most shocking to me about the video of George Floyd is not only that he was killed helplessly by police officers. It is that they knew they were surrounded by witnesses and being taped. They never blinked. They never hesitated. /1

It was as if they were saying: this is what we’ve been trained to do. We are trained to use deadly force against black men. And if they die, it’s their own fault for being in that situation. It indicates institutional racism that is actively taught and reinforced.

It’s not just the police violence they’re rioting against, but the systematic power & wealth inequality the Fed imposes by focusing on asset price inflation for the wealthy.
Bail out the bottom 50% who own virtually no stocks or real estate.

The cop who put Eric Garner on a choke hold waved at the people who were filming the incident. He knew nothing was going to happen to him.

What I do not understand is in today's world, how do you not assume that someone is videoing your bad acts. Same thing over and over.

Wow Neel Kashkari! After a career in money printing, you're suddenly an expert in public education. Then, a few weeks later, you're telling us all about Covid 19. Now, it's police brutality and racism. You are a true renaissance man!

That's what really got me too. They fully expected to not have any repercussions. They could kill an innocent black man in the full light of day, be filmed, and nothing would happen.

This has to be the biggest disconnect between the stock market and underlying fundamentals we have ever seen. Riots, looting, thousands in long food lines, unemployment approaching 20% and the stock market not far from all time highs..SMH. What happened to true price discovery?

To me, that one of them repeatedly suggested rolling him on his side so that he could breathe. This proves they were trained that what they were doing was truly asphyxiating him, but the others didn’t give a damn, and killed him.

Apple has so much cash the company could repay ALL its debt obligations and still have roughly $83 billion left over.
Why on EARTH is the Federal Reserve buying their debt via the secondary market?
PRICE DISCOVERY IS GONE...
