Apparently, this is the advertisement the Washington Post decided not to carry.

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #980,275!

(Just snuck in under the One Million mark, too!)

We can't confirm that, in the interest of fairness, Ben and Jerry's will also soon be releasing a new "Donald's Just-Plain-Nuts" flavor.

From a live blog post in the NY Times shortly after the press conference. Of course, "people close to Trump" are ipso facto delusional, but that doesn't mean they're wrong and I fear on this point they are right.
