RIP Richard Simmons who died peacefully in his sleep.

If there's anything that he would want is to be remembered with a smile! (And healthy eating and exercise.) He lived his life in the fullest way possible by sharing positivity, joy, and laughter. He will live on in the lives of those he touched.

May you be able to continue to have fun in heaven.

President Biden just released a video statement. He plans on addressing the nation tonight at 8pm,

In it he announced that all security measures are being reviewed and shored up for the RNC, he offered unlimited support to his opponent, and says "We must unite as one nation."

Some positive news that went unnoticed Friday:

Biden is back up in the polls leading by 2pts. - Politico

WaPo/ABC poll of 2500 ppl:
"found that if Harris were to replace Biden on the Democratic presidential ticket, she would lead Trump in the popular vote: 49 percent to 46 percent among all adults"

Shooting update:
Deceased and wounded victims have been identified by local PA Police Dept.

Two local law enforcement sources say the rifle was legally purchased by and registered to — the shooter’s father. - via @ CBSNews

I 💓 this idea!

"Democrats should introduce a gun control bill called the "The Donald Trump safety and gun control bill" and make republicans vote against it."

With the above and the heatwave in mind I’ll share the same advice I gave my clients. People will be losing their patience and heads amid rising tension at various points this summer. The first period begins July 12th with the 1st intense peak starting late Saturday night, July 20th; the full moon's lunatic energy will subside by July 23rd. The 2nd intense period begins Aug 12th and peaks from Tues, August 13th - Aug 22nd.

Solution: Keep Calm and …

All of that ahead of 2 contentious political conventions. Nixon had 98% of RNC delegates while the DNC had a gallery of 9 candidates including KKK-lover George Wallace. As for the level of acrimony on the DNC Convention floor I suggest you watch the 20 min video of highlight clips of the 4 nights of DNC including a young Dan Rather being roughed up by police on air on the 2nd night of the convention and the riots outside the Chicago convention hall.

6 weeks ago I sat with my high net worth clients and reviewed my forecast for July and August w/a special focus on the political conventions of the RNC in July & DNC in Aug.

I shared w/them how the energy and environment of this year are very similar to 1968:
- Soviets invade Czech Republic
- Tet Offensive in Vietnam
- Large student protests
- Half the country opposed to our involvement in an "inhumane wars"
- 2 political assassinations - RFK & MLK

Positivisms:
For Dems
- Media is no longer talking about Biden's age

Maga
- 🤡 will rise in the polls & get lots of support from sideliners
- they'll use this event as a legitimate grievance & will have the 🤡 become a martyr & victim

Twitter is going wild and viral Identifying the wrong shooter.

This is NOT the shooter. The shooter is supposedly dead.
