People in city’s minority ethnic communities speak of alarm as violence casts light on racism in Northern Ireland As widespread violence broke out in Belfast, a list of addresses began circulating on social media. Spread geographically wide, on dozens of streets across the city, the addresses were reportedly houses of multiple occupation (HMOs) where immigrants live. Joseph and Solomon, both from Eritrea, came to Belfast as refugees, now have leave to remain, and work full-time. They live on the same street as one of the properties on the list, but Joseph thought it was theirs that was meant to be on it. “It’s obviously for us,” he said. Continue reading...

Even 'Trust The Election' Pundits Are Suspicious Authored by J.B. Shurk via American Thinker , California’s rigged elections are difficult to defend... California Democrats have rigged another election, and outsider Spencer Pratt has been bumped from the Los Angeles mayoral race . On Election Day, Pratt’s lead over third-place Nithya Raman was so large that she publicly cried over her loss. After a week of mail-in-ballot shenanigans, Raman has surged to secure a coveted spot on the November ballot — a statistical improbability in any jurisdiction familiar with arithmetic and basic ethics. This “come from behind victory” has made it difficult for the usual election-fraud-deniers to pretend that California’s elections are free, fair, legal, or remotely based in reality. I noticed that National Review writer Dan McLaughlin — who spent a lot of time after 2020’s stolen election defending Joe Biden’s “victory” — felt compelled to make this small concession : “I’m suspicious of the voting in LA. For now, in the absence of evidence, that’s just vague suspicion unsupported by proof, but the vote-counting process reeks.” I wrote a number of essays describing the historic irregularities of the 2020 election after Joe Biden supposedly “won” more than fifteen million extra votes than Barack Obama had secured in his re-election victory. In the 2020 election, President Trump won almost every traditional bellwether county across the country by double-digits. He expanded his voter support in almost every demographic and did better with black voters than any Republican since Eisenhower. He exceeded expectations in swing states. Economic variables and historic precedent strongly forecast a Trump victory. It was entirely reasonable to look at the statistical improbabilities of the 2020 election outcome (another race that was “decided” more than four days after Election “Day”) and conclude that the numbers did not make sense. It was entirely appropriate for Americans to gather outside ...

Damircudic | E+ | Getty Images Nearly 7 million federal student loan borrowers remain enrolled in a defunct Biden administration-era repayment plan , Nicholas Kent, a top official at the U.S. Department of Education, told CNBC on Thursday. By staying in the Saving on A Valuable Education, or SAVE , plan, these borrowers' debts are growing, and they're not making progress toward student loan forgiveness, said Kent, the undersecretary of education at the agency. "It's a problem for borrowers," he said. "They're not recognizing the benefit of making their payments." In recent weeks, just around 300,000 student loan borrowers have left SAVE, Kent said. The millions of borrowers who've lingered in the plan are at risk of getting billed unaffordable payments once the plan disappears, or eventually falling into default. Over 42 million Americans hold student loans, and the outstanding debt exceeds $1.6 trillion, according to the Congressional Research Service. 'SAVE borrowers have to move' The Biden administration introduced SAVE in 2023, billing it as "the most affordable repayment plan ever created." Under the program, many borrowers expected their monthly bills to be cut in half. But Republican-led legal challenges quickly put the plan on ice. Starting in July 2024, millions of student loan borrowers were placed in forbearance while the legal challenges played out, meaning they didn't owe monthly payments. A federal appeals court finally ordered the end of SAVE earlier this year. The Trump administration has allowed borrowers to remain in the payment pause until recently. Officials said in late March that SAVE enrollees will get roughly 90 days from July 1 to exit and select a new repayment option. "SAVE borrowers have to move," Kent told CNBC. Borrowers to face different deadlines to exit SAVE Student loan borrowers enrolled in SAVE will face different deadlines for exiting the program, Kent said. Borrowers should expect a 90-day window during which they can enroll in ...

Strategy (NASDAQ: MSTR) , formerly known as MicroStrategy, was once a slow-growth software company. But in 2020, its co-founder and executive chairman, Michael Saylor, directed the company to start hoarding Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) . Today, it's the world's largest corporate holder of Bitcoin. Saylor has repeatedly told investors to "never sell" their Bitcoin, and he boldly predicted its price would surge to $21 million by 2046. Strategy has only sold Bitcoin twice: 704 Bitcoins for $11.8 million in Dec. 2022, and another 32 Bitcoins for $2.5 million in May 2026. It still holds 845,256 Bitcoins, or 4% of all the Bitcoins that will ever be produced, which are worth $53.8 billion today. Image source: Getty Images. Continue reading

Suphachai Panyacharoen/iStock via Getty Images Investment Thesis I last reviewed the Vanguard Mid-Cap Index Fund ETF ( VO ) on December 19, 2022, when I compared it with the iShares Core S&P MidCap ETF ( IJH ). Looking back, the two ended up tracking each other quite well since that review date, so despite my conviction at the time that IJH was the better investment, there wasn't a clear winner after all. Data by YCharts You can see in the graph how VO has given up the sizable lead it held one year ago, but besides the iShares Core S&P Mid-Cap ETF (IJH), I'd like to introduce you today to a two-ETF combination that I believe is better suited for mid-cap investors. As I'll discuss, focusing on quality and momentum simultaneously is likely to outperform cap-weighted mid-cap funds like VO, and after looking at the performance charts and latest fundamentals of these two ETFs, I hope you'll agree. Please enjoy the read, and as always, I look forward to your comments afterward. VO Overview: Strategy Discussion And Performance Analysis According to its website , VO tracks the CRSP US Mid Cap Index and "provides a convenient way to match the performance of a diversified group of medium-sized companies." The ETF has a risk/reward rating of five, suggesting it's most appropriate for aggressive investors, and launched on January 26, 2024, though it has only tracked the current Index since February 1, 2013. The Index aims to cover companies that fall between the top 70-85% of U.S. market capitalization, and readers should know that CRSP breakpoints allow for some overlap between the large- and small-cap segments. That's why VO has 17.43% overlap with the Vanguard Large-Cap ETF ( VV ) and 4.77% with the Vanguard Small-Cap ETF ( VB ). In contrast, the ETFs representing the three cuts of the S&P 1500 Composite Index—the iShares Core S&P 500 ETF ( IVV ), IJH, and the iShares Core S&P Small-Cap ETF ( IJR )—are designed to have no overlap, as summarized below.
