The folks on msnbc make it sound like this hope hicks testimony is really really damaging for trump

LOL nice

hahaha I was thinking in terms of "at least there's a modicum of chance I could make money if I bought the stock" but this is obviously true as well and also funny

I know you didn't mean that Theil would do it, but as a side note, I think I recall reading that he may be pulling back from political donating.

Good call, yeah same reasoning I had earlier re: stock vs donating but for rich dudes instead of MAGA.

I'm not smart enough to know what that would do to the stock, maybe someone else does, but he'd also have to have buyers and if most people think he's going to raid the company why would they buy what he's selling unless they're just hard core maga (or don't think he's going to raid the company?)

LOL that popped into my head right after I pressed submit reply but then I almost convinced myself that Trump probably doesn't give a rats.

Got it, thanks. I wasn't sure if you meant you didn't believe there was a process or that there was a process and that he'd leverage it. If I had to wager a guess I'd guess he'll raid the **** out of that company day 1 after that lock in period.

Are you saying that you'll believe that he sells within 5 month window when you see it?

This article from AP describes the process: https://apnews.com/article/trump-cash-spac-digital-world-dwac-ce4b055545378ab05d52513ffe2d4d4f?utm_campaign=TrueAnthem&utm_medium=AP&utm_source=Facebook&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR0cXqBR4-PAa_0q3DBrIHGjN1v0laR1oul855J76NQ9uVB_jidd__Nkymw_aem_AWqymsnkAY5-rDHfIsLjuHMoLRi7VX2b6r73qsvkfVOcGD9uSysHCeCaHkyDF6CrI9b6J98KQOjh0xYxzuEPew15

The NPR story said he could sooner if he got approval from the board, which would be basically a rubber stamp b/c it's his family and other trump loyalists.

True. Another thing I was wondering, although this would be mainly reflected in very recent fundraising numbers but.... NPR had a lil ditty this morning about the Trump stock, and they said that some of his supporters are buying that stock in effort to support Trump. Now far be it for me to infer reasoning on Trumpers, but if I was a Trumper and felt compulsion to get my money into his pockets, and my choices are donating or buying stock, I'd buy the stock.

I wonder if they're just tapped out for donating to him. Dude's been asking for money straight since 2015. I know most of them do it relentlessly but he's taken it to another level.

Apparently Mike Flynn is out claiming he has received a bunch of subpoenas, no idea what for.

They seem to get transcripts earlier than the public.... she posted this:

When I was listening to coverage earlier they were talking about the witness that was coming up was just there to testify to the authenticity of information on two phones Cohen surrendered to authorities. These commenter's both said it was something that isn't ever crossed. Well.... according to lisa rubin apparently trumps guys did cross examine the witness and....... said the FBI planted info on the phones ?!?!?!?!?!

You said Hamas rejected every offer. I posted proof that you're wrong. Sorry that happened to you. You may want to stop listening to media controlled by college kids, it may help you know how to avoid saying categorically false statements

SMH

That ended in Nov 2023.

There is no ceasefire because Hamas and Israel keep rejecting each other's offers, like I said a long time ago.

Because there's not a ceasefire are you paying attention to the Gaza War?

Here's where you're factually wrong, yet again. This can happen when you spend too much time stalking college kids on social media in a Gaza War thread. A temporary ceasefire between Israel and Hamas-led Palestinian militant groups in the Gaza Strip took effect from 24 November 2023 to 30 November 2023, during the Israel–Hamas war. The initial agreement, mediated by Qatar, stipulated a four-day break in fighting during which 50 Israeli hostages held in Gaza and 150 Palestinian prisoners in Israel were to be released and more humanitarian aid will be allowed to enter Gaza, with the ceasefire subject to extension providing additional hostages are released.[1][2][3] On 27 November, Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced a two-day extension to the ceasefire was agreed in which 20 Israelis and 60 Palestinians would be released. Close to the end of the first extension, on 30 November, another one day extension to the truce was agreed upon by both sides.[4][5] The mediators in Qatar and in Egypt reported they worked to negotiate a further extension of the truce.[6]

No one said they did.
