With its claim that Starbucks has been a “values-led company,” the coffee brand says its new campaign urges young teens to try out a new name in public.

High-tax states' bonds are so in demand that ratings don't matter

  • There’s so much money chasing after the bonds sold by America’s high-tax states that buyers don’t seem to care too much about what credit-rating companies think.

"The heavy demand overall has driven municipal yields to their lowest in more than six-decades.
And with rates so low, the yield penalties that would typically differentiate a deeply indebted state from a thrifty one have become little more than rounding errors that in some cases contrast with their standing in the ratings pecking order.
...This dynamic shows how dramatic the demand has become for tax-exempt securities since President Donald Trump’s 2017 tax law limited state and local deductions.
That change drove investors in high tax-states like California, New York and New Jersey into municipal bonds as an alternative way to drive down what they owe..."

"Now that the Democrats’ dream of stealing the 2016 election through the power of MSNBCNN-fueled outrage, and through plots by fussy lib bureaucrats, lies in ruins, some people might argue that we should be gracious in our total victory and not mock the stinging pain that accompanied this latest agonizing failure.
Some people are sissies. 
Hoist a stein overflowing with the tears of these losers and chug chug chug away.
Then tap another keg.
This party is finally getting started, and it’s going to rage on until January 2025..."

Image result for hmmmmInstapundit Blog Archive AN OBSERVATION FROM A FRIEND ON FACEBOOK:
"A caller to Rush’s show made an excellent point: If Romney believed just a week ago that there was not enough evidence to convict Trump without additional witnesses, how can he vote to convict today when there have been no additional witnesses?”
There’s nothing sadder than people who talk about standards and principles while engaging in transparently self-serving doubletalk. 
You can get the same point, made rather more pungently, at Ace’s.--Posted by Glenn Reynolds"

College Students Reject Trump Quotes, Only To Find Out They Are From Dems | Michael Berry | NewsRadio 740 KTRH:
"In this current political climate, it seems like liberals objectively oppose Donald Trump, for no reason at all. 
It's almost like they were wired by institutions to think a certain way and block out any sort of logic and reasoning.
A YouTube page by the name of CampusReform is taking that challenge straight to the front doors of these liberal institutions.
The host of the channel goes around universities asking students challenging political questions in order to get a common liberal response.
It seems like most of them have not done their own research and are just going with whatever their professor teaches them.
