Note: I will be on vacation from July 23rd to August 3rd. A much-needed break to go fly fishing with my son and some new best friends. I plan to limit my screen time as much as humanly possible. Content will still consist of Dave Fairtex’s excellent weekly market updates, the Daily Digest, and all the amazing threads and comments generated by y’all.
Case Closed!
It turns out that according to the FBI and the DOJ, working hand in oily hand, have determined that Epstein did not blackmail anyone and that he definitely killed himself.

The leaked memo, which might be a fake, was allegedly leaked to Axios, a deep state mouthpiece, so if it was leaked it was intentionally leaked. On a Sunday. We presume as a test leak to find out how such a ridiculous thing might actually go down among the ever-fracturing MAGA base.
MAGA split #1: Israel. Trump constantly bending over for Bibi and his devotion to placing Israel’s needs over America’s fractured the America First contingent.
MAGA Split #2: The Big Beautiful Bill and its weak sauced approach to 2A rights and vast increase in spending violated the spirit of many campaign promises.
MAGA split #3: Going completely Deep State on us all by covering up for Epstein’s activities and murder.
