Espionage Act Charges Very Much In Play For Trump

I’m confused. Why is it better for the stock to be a gift than for payment of services?

Good question. I looked (briefly) for more information on this company. Near as I could tell, it had revenues of $890,000, not a lot for a company with 50 employees. This looks to me like a company that was created to be a pump-and-dump vehicle.

Maybe because if it’s a gift then his possession of the stock can be construed to be unintentional? Whereas if he acquired it as compensation for services, that’s an active choice to invest.

With eight month till the first 2024 primary votes, Trump looks weaker day by day.

I don’t think he’s going to make it anyway. He’s got too much shit happening to him legally and he keeps on digging. DeStupid isn’t going to make it either because he’s too stupid and has no personality or charm. I don’t know who that leaves as a serious contender.

Just as long as it isn’t someone who says he is " generally pro-choice," and for legalizing cannabis.

The “services” in question should probably be seen as another way of saying he did something in return for a bribe.

Not Kemp?

I haven’t seen any hints he’s running for 2024. He just won re-election in 2022.

Texas AG Ken Paxton was just impeached.

Do you have any idea how corrupt you have to be for a REPUBLICAN-run state house to remove a REPUBLICAN AG?

It’d be like getting kicked out of Don Jr.’s house for doing too much cocaine.

That McCarthy put us through all this without having the votes in the House or Senate - meaning he was always going to need Uncle Joe to bail him out and save his Speakership - remains the most ridiculous part of this pathetic MAGA-fueled exercise. https://t.co/WMm5T3zs4d

I, too, scrolled through the thread looking for the source. I was unamused. :unamused:

“Advisor” is doing a lot of work here.

She remains a vapid and immoral entity who - borrowing from Ann Richards - was born on third base and thinks she hit a triple.
