Trump: "These people were brought to our country to vote, & they vote illegally. The Republicans should say, we should take over the voting in at least 15 places. The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting. We have states that I won that show I didn't win. You're gonna see something in Georgia"

Another US government equity stake just dropped, bringing the grand total to TWELVE since Trump took office.
Reminder: prior to last year, Washington hadn't been a shareholder in a healthy private company since at least the 1950s.

This is what happens when you normalize gambling on everything — from sports to elections to war. It’s a symptom of a culture where insider access = profit, and the rest of us lose faith & trust in everything.
Sports betting was just the gateway.

We’ve repeated over and over again that anyone who believes Donald Trump’s claims of supporting free speech is either a brainwashed cultist or the dumbest person alive. And now, in his doddering old age, he’s becoming ever more brazen and belligerent in his attacks on speech. He’s not even trying to put forth a veneer of legitimacy anymore. Last week, his FCC chair, Brendan Carr, went on a MAGA influencer’s podcast and…

Holmes and Campbell have been great for Lions but they definitely got too cute with cap space and evaluation of existing Edge options, and in Holmes case surprisingly overconfident in media.

![“Question,” Epstein wrote to Maxwell on May 23, 2008. “Which one do you prefer,,, lewd and lscivious conduct ,, or procuring minors for prostituion.”
At the time, he and his star-studded team of defense lawyers were closing in on a generous plea deal with federal and state officials in Florida, and Epstein was trying to negotiate the state charges to which he’d plead guilty. Maxwell’s response was matter-of-fact:
From: gmax <gmax[REDACTED]>
