I guarantee you that less than 8% of America knows who Cornel West even is. No way he gets more than Stein even.

Shoutout to black Americans for routinely voting against socialists in the Democratic party. Huge W. Nina Turner and Bernie can sugma.

MAGA

RFK will take 70% of votes from Trumpers

I wouldn't consider him, he's irrelevant (2024 speaking)

Kanye isn't running I don't believe

The war

Amash would be perfect but no repub or dem would vote for him

@vcczar did Mahomes win you this game?

No way in hell I'm the only person who didn't know this

I never actually knew this. @vcczar has been hiding this from us for years. https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/is-washington-a-square

Hamstring injuries have been the shit this season. I'm lucky I traded him after week 1

There's also a guy in my league who has Burrow, David Montgomery, Tony Pollard, Ceedee Lamb and Puca (with Nico Collins at flex) who is somehow 0-6.

Mahomes should bounce back. I'm still high on Jacobs having a great season. I would honestly trade or drop Zeke ASAP.

I also did some 200IQ trades with a guy trading Keenan Allen and Aaron Jones after their big games for AJ Brown, Jerry Jeudy and Breeze Hall (those two I was able to flip for Jonathan Taylor), and Higbee for Kyle Pitts in the same trade who has played great the past few games.

I started Stafford over Herbert thinking I was doing a big brain move. If I lose that'll be the reason why

Injuries screw you? I somehow whooped ass with how many injuries I had.

I'm 4-2 in one league after winning today, and I'll be 6-0 in my other league if Saquon does his projection (15pts) and Josh Allen scores less than 35

How about we err on the side of less government interference and more freedom in every situation

Truman gets an A. Fucker set up the Marshall Plan and orchestrated the containment policy that helped bring down the Soviet Union in 43 years. JFK is a C. Most Americans overrate his foreign policy chops, but he's still pretty average overall. LBJ was a F, obv. Nixon was the greatest American foreign policy mind of any 20th century President. B, with potential for an A if he finished his term. Reagan also gets an A. While I think his presidency fucked us long-term domestically, his nuclear disarmament agreements with the USSR was huge and a top 3 foreign policy moment of all time in the US. That alone deserves an A. Clinton is a C. Same reasons VcCzar stated. Bush Jr. obv an F. He bungled an international coalition and his invasion of Iraq to attempt to one-up his dad led to the deaths of over a million Iraqis, and honestly led to worse events than Saddam could've imagined. Truly a horrible, terrible event. Obama C. No major accomplishments, but was a relief from Bush. Trump I'll give a C+/B-. His North Korea meetings were historic and a step in the right direction, I liked his policy with Iran, I liked his Afghanistan withdrawal, and the Abraham Accords were not something I ever thought I would see in a thousand years. Trade war with China fucks him. Biden is a D. Fucked up Afghanistan getting Americans killed. Encouraged the Ukrainians to avoid talks of peace (we'll see if this was a good move or not). More military posturing from Russia/China/DPRK than during his predecessor. Outmaneuvered by OPEC. Even more protectionist than Trump. Former US economic allies partnering with BRICS. Inconsistent US border policy. Just a complete mess.

Truth is it doesn't really matter, it's mostly a choice between which UI you prefer and any special funds the broker may offer (Fidelity being extremely competent and competitive in both departments). Mine is with TD Ameritrade (which will become Schwab shortly). The bigger question is what you invest in. I personally recommend the Boglehead approach, which is an investment philosophy that you may have heard of that emphasizes investments into total market, low-cost index funds (via ETFs or mutual funds, but ETFs are better nowadays due to lower expense ratio, often 10x cheaper). ETF = Exchange-traded fund (i.e., a fund that's traded on a stock exchange). Think of it like a combination of 1000s of stocks into one stock (because that's exactly what it is). Usually cap-weighted, which means that say you buy an ETF that represents the US market, and Apple is 5% of the US market, the stock will have 5% of its holdings in Apple, going all the way down to the smallest stock which is probably like 0.001% or something. My favorite one is VT. It is quite literally 9000+ stocks in one, US and international, large and small cap. You literally cannot get more diversified than that. If you want to hedge risk, BND is a bond market ETF with lower volatility, but since you're young I wouldn't recommend more than 10% allocation. But as you grow older and approaching retirement definitely look at increasing bond allocation as your goals change from capital growth to capital preservation. That's my favorite investment philosophy and the one I always tell people to do. Don't take unnecessary risk (and waste valuable time) gambling on individual stocks when you can just own the entire stock market in a "set-it-and-forget-it" mindset and enjoy other things. There's tons of research on this and passive investing beats over 90% of active investors. I'm sure you already knew a lot of this stuff but I'm trying to be broad in case someone else was interested. In short: Who provides the Roth IRA doesn't matter; the actual investments do. Two-fund portfolio, VT and BND. Allocation depends on how close you are to retirement.
