    Alone the fact that a politician (let alone the president) picks who will take ownership of the most influential social network should raise major red flags…

    I am so tired of the constant sane washing of all these fucked up developments.

      This has been going on for years where do you think some of these laws like anti-trust comes from? They still do it behind closed doors like grocery store price fixing or greedflation under an excuse like covid despite them having the highest revenues.

    In a Fox News interview, Trump said he had a group of “very wealthy people” willing to acquire the platform. “I’ll tell you in about two weeks,” he teased.

      Last time he left Daddy Putin a message, he didn’t call back. But then Daddy Netanyahu called, and he said that he didn’t think Trump had the balls to bomb Iran. That’s why it took less than 2 weeks.

    My money is on some far right billionaire asshole who will give it the Twitter treatment and make it a Nazi haven that that pushes Reich wing content on people…

  • He probably doesn’t because he just wants to show he’s doing something to his base, and when no one wants to buy it, hell just push the deadline further down
