      Shucks...

      “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

      Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

        Just another sociopath drawn to wall street. I was particularly interested that when his son killed himself due to the shame of having him as a father, Bernie called him weak.

        Education is extremely important.

            I didn't realize his younger son also is dead.

            Wow. Poor Ruth.

                In Talking to Strangers, Gladwell has a fascinating chapter on Madoff.

                The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
