The Washington Post - Opinion - Redacted Trump

26 August

It is really an unjust world if this orange idiot doesn't get a prison sentence and disappear from history.

This just proves how lax the security at Maralago obviously is:

If Texas and/or other states move to secede, will Biden ultimately use force to preserve the union?

The Washington Post - Truth Social faces financial peril as worry about Trump’s future grows

27 August

Former president Donald Trump’s Truth Social website is facing financial challenges as its traffic remains puny and the company that is scheduled to acquire it expresses fear that his legal troubles could lead to a decline in his popularity.

 

Six months after its high-profile launch, the site - a clone of Twitter, which banned Trump after Jan. 6, 2021 - still has no guaranteed source of revenue and a questionable path to growth, according to Securities and Exchange Commission filings from Digital World Acquisition, the company planning to take Trump’s start-up public.

 

The company warned this week that its business could be damaged if Trump “becomes less popular or there are further controversies that damage his credibility.” 

 

The company has seen its stock price plunge nearly 75 percent since its March peak and reported in a filing last week that it had lost $6.5 million in the first half of the year.

If Texas and/or other states move to secede, will Biden ultimately use force to preserve the union?

neb: If places like Texas and Florida secede the last thing Biden should be doing is considering any moves to get them back. It'd actually be a pretty good outcome, a large percentage of crazies would be drawn to move there and all Biden has to do is close the door to make sure they stay out.

...and build a new border wall to keep them there! One Way door in - No getting out!

Seeing as a few of you have linked to this excellent book, I thought an image might be appropriate.

I was recently gifted a copy and it's a great read. Witty, informative and wickedly hilarious. I often highlight passages in good books I keep, eg, Youval Noah Harari's brilliant Homo Sap trilogy. But with this offering from Rick Wilson, I'd have to highlight just about the entire book 😉
