#Trump’s Truth Social is now a public company. Experts warn its multibillion-dollar valuation defies logic

#WompWomp

New York Judge Merchan imposed a gag order on Tuesday that prohibits #Trump from attacking witnesses, prosecutors and jurors, the latest effort to rein in the former president’s wrathful rhetoric about his legal opponents.

The judge imposed the order at the request of the Manhattan district attorney’s office, which brought the case against Trump.

NYT reporter:

Chuck Todd just attacked his own network, NBC News, over hiring Ronna McDaniel. "Our bosses owe you an apology for putting you in this situation," he told Kristen Welker on Meet the Press. "There's a reason why there's a lot of journalists at NBC News uncomfortable with this."

Eric Trump: First of all, I'm a guy that grew up in New York, my father built the skyline of New York.

@[email protected] Because by the time they’re debunked, the meme is out there and repeated 24/7. The fact checks are not as effective.

So Katie Britt, after hiding how fancy her kitchen was so she could claim to have worries, laid out an excellent case we should make it easier for women who've been sex trafficked to get amnesty in the US, and ALSO noted migration has been a problem for a decade?
