"While I may disagree with the application of FSA resistance to the enforcement of immigration law I cannot unsee how successful it was in stymying enforcement then. And I know its adherents see it as likely to be successful now and are certainly unlikely to back down"

"Meanwhile marshalls were able to capture and return the vast majority of their targets but kept the peace by choosing when to let the targets go.And while individuals and groups in the resisting localities made it hard on the marshalls local constabulary worked with them"

"Here are two big differences. Police in sanctuary cities are actively not helping the marshalls while it appears the Feds will not back down. With the Feds not using their power with more discretion and the locals knowing that history supports their strategy this will escalate"

"Post 2/8: First context: After the Mexican-American War the U.S. gained massive territory. Slavery debates explodedwould new states be slave or free South Carolina threatened secession (sound familiar). Enter Henry Clay the "Great Compromiser" with help from Stephen Douglas and Millard Fillmore. They crafted the Compromise of 1850: North got most wins but South got the FSA to buy a decade of fragile peace. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2011751722528489778 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2011751722528489778"

"Post 6/8: Sanctuary city advocates know this history. To them it's a successful playbook for "nullifying" federal lawa win for the minority who cared deeply about slaves' plight. I'm not equating chattel slavery (stolen people in bondage) to immigration enforcement (people here illegally by choice). But the strategy's effectiveness Undeniable. Adherents won't back down"

"Post 7/8: Key differences today: - Federal power: DC in [----] is way stronger than [----]. - Media ubiquity: Escalation risks soar with constant coverage. - Local cooperation: 1850s police often helped marshals; today's sanctuary cops actively don't. - Fed resolve: Trump isn't Pierceexpect less discretion more push. History's lesson FSA enforcers used selective enforcement to avoid full rebellion. Marshals got most targets but let some go to keep peace. Locals resisted but cooperated enough. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2011753481342689629 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2011753481342689629"

"@crossbordercap I am totally convinced by your argument that in a refinancing focused world getting bond volatility down gets all asset prices up.

"How friggin hilarious is this; stay humble and stack sats What a despicable comment for $MSTR s @Saylor to make after buying 150% of the incremental supply of BTC since the Ap [--] halving. Stay humble he says as he leverages up his company issuing 7b debt 7b in preffs and 13b in stock in an effort to corner and subvert a market he pretends to honor. Stay humble my ass. His downfall was brought about by his all too human traits of greed and indisciplined mania.

"Northerners immediately hated it and set about resisting it ever more actively and violently. Their states and localities created new laws guaranteeing escapees right to habeus corpus and other such things to throw sand in the gears of the federal Marshalls enforcing the FSA"

"Post 1/8: ๐ History Rhymes: Fugitive Slave Act of [----] vs. Today's Sanctuary Cities & ICE Battles I love American history for how it adds nuance to todaylike comparing 1850s Personal Liberty Laws (early "sanctuary" resistance) to modern sanctuary cities and the Fugitive Slave Act (FSA) to Trump's deportation push. It's not a perfect parallel but the echoes are fascinating. Let me break it down.

"Post 3/8: The Fugitive Slave Act (1850) beefed up the [----] version making it federal law for Northern authorities to hunt capture and "repatriate" escaped slaves. No succor for the enslavedfederal marshals enforced it everywhere. But it was doomed. Northerners hated it resisting actively and violently. States & cities passed Personal Liberty Laws granting habeas corpus and other protections to sabotage enforcement"

"Post 8/8: Today With Feds unlikely to back down and locals betting on history's rhyme escalation seems inevitable. There are no signs that Trump is going to selectively enforce and with local authorities mooting using their police to fight ICE you cannot expect deescalation there. IMO this is worse than you think. #endofthread #AmericanHistory #SanctuaryCities #Minneapolis #ICE"

"This is a good start. The whole Jacob Fry and Tim Walz confrontational approach was completely at odds with the way 1850s local politicians handled and eventually diffused the situation. https://x.com/govtimwalz/status/2011832759522615367s=61 https://t.co/EFBOPpNluy https://x.com/govtimwalz/status/2011832759522615367s=61 https://t.co/EFBOPpNluy"

"When you look at the MREIT sector and factor in when companies are going to be issuing accretively remember Potter Stewart [----] definition of hard-core pornography. My four categories of is it accretive are: 1- does the net premium above NAV of the issuance raise NAV. 2- do the assets acquired increase the ability to support your dividend. 3- does the increased equity base lower the total fee structure. 4- can the management both external and internal pay itself more. If you listen to the earnings calls you will note that analyst seldom ask management team to define which form of accretion"
