Super fun that Comcast is funding Trump's gaudy ballroom while simultaneously announcing layoffs.

Meet the 37 private donors for Trump’s ballroom—many of whom have ongoing governmental contracts or regulatory cases.
It sure looks like their multi-million dollar donations are a way to curry favor.

Block & move on
Remember folks. The original bluesky ethos by us bluesky elders (apparently I count?) is block and move on.
Don't quote dunk, don't pick fights.
Block, and move on.
This is what made this site unpalatable to the right early on, and we can continue to make it unpalatable to them.
