Maddog re: debt
Both governments are going to have to eat that reality sandwich sooner or later.
That’s one of the areas where Trump has disappointed. One of his campaign promises was to deal with the debt but once in office he’s a victim of Drunken Sailor Syndrome like so many other elected officials.
ipso facto
Re Debt…..at least you have a government that acknowledges yr debt problem and is trying to grow out of it, via a strong economy etc…over here in Europe, as far as all governments are concerned the debt problem doesn’t exist …it is never spoken of, or acknowledged in any way….

Grinding higher. Looks pretty good to me if we can sustain it.

I hope people don’t assume that and not do their part in Social media and voting. The repuuns only have to lose a few seats in both House and Congress and they are up to no good as usual.
The cost of servicing the debt is going higher

The cost of servicing US debt is the highest in decades:
On Thursday, the US government sold $25 billion of 30Y Treasury bonds at a 5.216% yield, the highest auction yield since 2001.
This follows a $42 billion auction of 10Y Treasury notes on Wednesday that resulted in a 4.683% yield, the highest since 2007.
Previously, on July 9th, the government sold 30Y Treasury bonds at a 5.058% yield, the highest since 2007, highlighting the worsening trend in US debt financing costs.
By comparison, yields on the same-maturity Treasury auctions were below 2.00% during the 2020 pandemic.
This comes as investors are demanding more compensation to finance the US government’s ever-growing deficit.
In July, the US Treasury’s budget deficit surged +$141 billion YoY, to $432 billion, the largest July total in history.
The US debt crisis is entering uncharted territory.

If the Mid Terms were really gonna let the Dems in, the SM would have taken fright by now….From here I see a bunch of outright commie lunatics, who no longer even try to hide what they really think , vs hard core capitalists…the choice is a no brainer.

to start the week as the dollar is slipping.
Nothing to write home about in any markets. No eco news of any significance that would move things.
Everything is on autopilot but slightly higher is better than slightly lower. 🙂

Speaking out in concern for Kaitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham this is getting out of control with double standards.
6″9;Brittany Griner bailed out of Russia prison.
Recently hating on assaulting a white female star player Kaitlin Clark along with other opposing player like DJ Carrington because Kaitlin can play better than them. She and now another white female coplayer Sophia Cunningham both goats standing up for Kaitlin who said woman’s sports has to be protected from men playing in woman’s sports which 80 percent agrees also getting harassed and attacked.

I wonder how that will effect all these growing AI and tech if the demos get enough seats in Congress and plan to tax the billionaires in these businesses including their assests and drive them not only out of the state but country like before and the economy goes down hill third world to these inner city hood rats.

I was never a good multitasker during my working years.
Now I found I can sneeze, fart, and pee, all at the same time, without giving it a conscious thought. One of the pleasures of getting older! Sng

That’s crazy. I don’t blame them for protesting. Troubles sure to follow. They’re going to be a minority in their own city and get handed the bill. They better start a neiborhood watch. Their just Islam system who release criminals and rapists won’t do them any good

Maybe things would f of been as bad if they switched places. It does say something about how politics work. The ones trying to assimilate get laughed at although hard not to with that individual or ridiculed instead of helped while the ones up to no good with the intention to invade get catered too.
goldielocks @ 5:15…you said: “They should of put him over in theater”. Yeah, you mean like Obama and wife Michael?
Maybe they could have made him into another US President if this had happened in America. Obama IMO was another total imposter and he got to serve 2 terms as US President with fake credentials, with a drag queen wife and two fake kids that belonged to his “handler”….and all he had to do was read his script and try to look confident and presidential. Maybe nothing is real anymore….except maybe silver and gold, and they might turn out to be foil wrapped chocolates . LOL! Sng

Yeah it could be more active for hurricanes in the Pacific this year compared to the Atlantic that will also threaten the south West coast. Your hurricane was much more severe than a 1 coming near the big island bringing a lot of rain with it and potential for flooding in low levels. Things are moving around but the warm weather in the Gulf of America is bringing flesh eating bacteria in the ocean water that has hospitalized quite a few people in Louisiana so far and also no joke. Including by sea food internally if not cooked completely like raw oysters. They shouldn’t even shave the day or many hours before going in the water not just recent abrasions cuts or scratches. But who know Hawaii and Mexico to southern California could be busy this year.
Maya – stay protected
Those hurricanes are no fun. The world is experiencing birth pangs.
There was a 7.7 magnitude earthquake off the coast of Indonesia last evening and another 6.9 just a couple hours ago. Tons of aftershocks 5.0 and above.
Volcanic eruptions all over. The ring of fire is rocking and rolling.
Good luck over there.
