In six months #MSTR lost 2/3rds of its value with a probable removal from MSCI's indexing looming in just two weeks. The options chain right now looks horrible.

Congrats to billionaires -- the social cancer is metastasizing nicely
From #Oxfam, a parting thought for still another deeply unequal year: The $2.2-trillion growth in the 2025 net worth of the world’s 500 richest #billionaires would have been enough to lift 3.8 billion people out of poverty. www.theguardian.com/news/2025/de...
Billionaires added record $2.2tn in wealth in 2025
Just eight billionaires accounted for a quarter of the gains, led by Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Larry Ellison and Larry Page

DHS now says it's aiming for 100 million deportations. In an amazing coincidence, there are 104 million Black and Hispanic people living in the U.S. right now.

Medicare Advantage looks cheaper upfront, but those "savings" come with denied care and massive insurer profits.

The hypocrisy is staggering. Kennedy built a career attacking FDA corruption, then got the job and continued it. As we head into 2026, let's be clear: this isn't reform. It's business as usual with (what started as) a better brand.

He called out adverse drug reactions as a leading cause of death. He condemned industry-funded research as biased.

Yet his FDA continues prioritizing pharma profits over public safety via faster approvals and weaker standards—the same deadly playbook.
