I am hearing conflicting opinions on and her testimony at the trial.

Some are saying it was very bad for trump while others are saying she bolstered the story that he did the payoff to only keep his family from finding out.

Opinions? Links?

Star Trek: Lower Decks to Conclude with Fifth and Final Season

The statement says they are working on S5 right now so we might get some sort of send off instead of a sudden end.

This is like the water batteries where during high peak energy production times (super sunny days at the solar farm) they use the excess power to pump water up the hill into a reservoir and then during low production time when they need more power, they release the water into a turbines back down the hill and it generates electricity.

BLACK-OWNED CHILDREN'S BOOKSTORE IN RALEIGH MOVING AFTER THREATS, OWNER SAYS

Liberation Station Bookstore, North Carolina's first Black-owned children's bookstore, is moving out of downtown Raleigh less than a year after it opened.

Geez. I think to myself "of course it's North Carolina..."

"Since September, we’ve faced numerous threats following the opening of our store," Scott-Miller wrote.

Yeah, it’s all BS till someone stands up and makes him face ANY consequence. So far, no one will no matter what he does

Seriously, all that will happen is he’ll lose access to the names? WTF? Any other defendant would have been tossed in jail.

The biggest problem, as I understand it, is that he and Larry Ellison (another insane nut) hold the majority of the stock so the board can't get rid of him like they need to do.

He needs to get booted out of management of and or both of them are going down despite the fact that muskrat has nothing to do with the innovation in either company but the people who are doing it are suffering

She is actively not making paper decisions knowing they will get her tossed off the case so she’s doing these decisions that can’t be appealed and Smith has to bide his time till she really screws up to take it up the chain.

Jeffrey Epstein's Island Visitors Exposed by Data Broker

A @WIRED investigation uncovered coordinates collected by a controversial data broker that reveal sensitive information about visitors to an island once owned by Epstein, the notorious sex offender.

This article doesn't name names but the implication is that it's not a leap to get them or that they do have them but just not saying.

Read Cory Doctorow's ( @pluralistic ) book Attack Surface (Little Brother Series #3) and when he details how much data is captured with cell towers and how many facilities have their own cell towers it's amazing to me that more of the January 6th attackers / rioters / traitors haven't been captured just from that data alone.

(the whole series is a must read for everyone especially any young technology users in your life)

I don't object to the result per se, it's still a sizeable bond and his corporate finances are monitored, but it's bad for the rule of law that (a) they gave no explanation and (b) Trump's briefs scrupulously avoided saying he didn't have the collateral for the bond. So why did he get the reduction? https://www.axios.com/2024/03/25/trump-bond-new-york-civil-fraud-trial?utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=editorial

Right after the Media merger won approval, Digital World's stock price plunged more than 13%.
Because Trump will own roughly 78 million shares in the post-merger company, the fall in price cut Trump's paper take from the deal by around $457 million.

Several analysts have suggested that if the board of the company vote to allow it, he can sell earlier.

By then the organizers of this shitshow will have made their millions and walked away. They won't give a crap when the stock his 17 cents losing every sucker all their money...

It's a grifter's IPO -- The organizers of this make their commission and fees right off the top and the next tier down makes their millions and never intended this to be viable

The one thing is that this isn’t cash on hand right now… or tomorrow… he will not have it whether he can sell immediately or not by March 25th close of business when he needs to post a bond or make a cash deposit.

I’m expecting him to suddenly have cash in a bank account suddenly that can be traced back to the Saudis or Russia.
