To paraphrase something I once read, if you have a liberal telling you it's raining and a conservative telling you it's sunny, your job as a journalist isn't to give them both equal air time in the interest of "fairness". Your job is to go outside and find out what the weather actually is.

Letitia James - "Assets, such as buildings, houses, cars, helicopters and his plane, are in play."

Please Letitia, make the 757 your first take, Mar-a-Lago a close second

It will be interesting to see how leveraged all those things are. If the plane has a 90 million dollar lien on it, and they can only sell it for 50, do they even take it?

Does he even have enough real equity for the government to raise 500 million by selling these things for what someone is willing to pay?

MSNBC has a change of heart and has now decided not to hire Ronna McDaniel

Quote:
In an effort to "address employee and talent backlash over" the decision to hire McDaniel, Rashida Jones, the cable network’s president, reportedly issued an alert suggesting McDaniel wouldn't reach MSNBC.

"Jones told employees the cable network has no plans to have McDaniel on the channel, according to people familiar with the conversations," the report says. "A number of MSNBC anchors and producers have voiced concern internally about McDaniel's ties to former President Donald Trump and the RNC's role in his efforts to challenge the 2020 election results."

In all seriousness, what's a 757 worth these days? That might be the only thing left.

That’s not real right? AI fake? Has to be.

No one in any office anywhere anytime can be that stupid.

Low point in the history of the US presidency?

The way he thrusts his hand forward at 7s. "I'm the smartest guy in the room and I'm about to prove it".

Yup. Was aware. Was just being facetious.

It’s hard to believe the world is going to get another 4 years of this lying narcissistic clown.

There is a VERY high probability it’ll be longer than 4 years. That is if he survives I guess but maybe he’ll have changed the laws by then so that his ridiculous kids can take over the crown when he’s done.

He tried to overthrow the government when he had the opportunity to legally get elected again… what are the odds this doesn’t happen again but in much different fashion? Putin was able to change term limits at the start as well……

I was a journalist. You don’t give a pulpit to serial liars. There are other ways.

Because, regardless of your myopic view of the world, the US has checks and balances in place to prevent this from happening.

Its mind boggling that the choices for the leader of free world are Trump and Biden.

American low point? I mean, its just sad. Not that I think either of Trudeau or Polliviere are great leaders but at least they're not a fall away from retirement.
