What is the critical difference between Vanguard's treasury money market fund and a short-term treasury fund? Is one more suitable for the PP than another?

Craig & MT say in their book that the managers of TLT have recently begun to lend shares. I have not heard the same about EDV.

It's not that hard to imagine a front man being kept clueless by a team of supposed subordinates. However, the fact that half the citizens in this country knew what was going on--right down to the sordid details--makes that theory impossible for me to buy. Regarding my earlier comment about no one h...

After a little nosing around, I see that Mueller has appeared before Congress a total of 88 times since 1990. Many, if not all, of those appearances were videotaped and are available on the internet. I went back and reviewed just a couple of clips from the last few months. Absolutely nothing in his ...

I am still leaning towards thinking that political ventriloquism is the underlying reality, he may very well be suffering health problems or be non committed semi retired, but that (and his prior respectable status) seems like exactly the reason the swamp people/bureaucrats made him the figurehead ...

Except that Mueller is on the short list of candidates for prosecution--that is, unless he has been granted some form of immunity. He didn't invoke the Fifth, so everything he said (or was unable to say) would be admissible in a subsequent criminal proceeding against him. A seemingly random inabilit...

As I think about it a little more, I recall that the claim being made is that Mueller has dementia and that everybody in Washington DC knew about it.

So what do you all think about the theory that Mueller has dementia and that he was used as the front man all this time because he couldn't understand anything? He did, truly, look like a broken man; however I'm inclined to believe that he's suffering from the same infirmity that Hillary came down w...

This is a must-watch: https://twitter.com/BreitbartNews/status/1151614617556328448 Expert testifying in front of the Senate Judiciary Sub-Committee states that Google's manipulation of search results swung, "rock bottom," 2.6 million votes, and that the actual range is between 2.6 million ...

However, I don't see this as a phenomenon at all unique to the "transgender" crowd. It's become emblematic of the New Left. It's not only transgenders who have adopted the familiar "you're either my persecutor or my savior" mentality characteristic of BPD, or who have acquired th...

Forget The Pundits, Forget The Pollsters. Look To The Bookies For Who Will Win In 2020. When you want to know who’s going to win the next presidential election, don’t read the mainstream newspapers or tune in to the cable networks. And forget the pollsters — they don’t know diddly. Just check in wi...

No vast conspiracy needed. . . It's just an iteration of the "give them enough rope" theme.

Have any of you had experience with CDB oil? My hands are hurting nearly all the time now from arthritis, so my ears perked up when I heard that CDB might offer some relief. However, I see nothing on the internet about the mechanism of action, even less about dosage or frequency. Is it something you...

I wonder what kind of electrical back-up would be suitable for an apartment situation. I've got an inverter-type generator that is the size of a piece of carry-on luggage and that weighs about 50 pounds. It is reasonably quiet and literally sips gas because it throttles up and down depending upon th...

This is the face of the New Left. God bless 'em, they deserve one another.

Trans Activist Sues Brazilian Wax Business after Owner Refused to Shave Her Balls

Here's a question (albeit a little tangential) that I've just been dying to ask: Are there any studies that compare the outcome of cancer patients who go through the standard treatment protocols and those who do nothing? I'm guessing that the data is limited due to the fact that you can't very well ...

Whoa.

So WiseOne, would you mind clarifying your point of view specifically with regard to the battery of tests that GPs recommend as patients cross particular ages? (In my case, 40?) I'm not sure exactly what they are: colonoscopy, heart CT, etc? I'd be interested in knowing this, too. Machine Ghost is ...

It doesn’t take a scientific study to know that spending some time with a cuddly cat or friendly dog will probably put you in a better mood. That being said, researchers from Washington State University have found objective, physiological evidence that just 10 minutes spent petting a cat or dog wil...

Even if you could argue, with a straight face, that illegal aliens are entitled to representation in Congress, the principled way of going about the census--as with any issue--is to lay bare the unadulterated facts, which are what they are, and to argue from there what the Constitution says about th...

Okay, I'm wierd. But animal companions are WAY better than sex.

Seriously, though. . . Haven't you just expressed the essential dilemma of nearly all men?

Octonia, are you maintaining that representatives may be apportioned to persons who are present in the country illegally? I don't see history as supporting that contention since slaves and women at least had a lawful presence.

I've been meaning to read the court's opinion, but I'm with you--I can't fathom how you can exclude from a census designed to count citizens for purposes of apportioning representatives any mechanism for identifying and counting citizens. But I'm past looking for logic when it comes to these things....

I understand the sentiment of the people wanting to poop on the idea of taking extra steps to maintain your mental/emotional health. Maybe this whole idea seems wishy washy. However, you probably are in a lucky position to have never been in dire straits in this regard -- some of us have not been s...
