'How can we trust him?' New concerns about Trump Media as auditor found to use many names by Tom Boggioni April 25, 2024 https://www.rawstory.com/trump-truth-social-stock-2667876789/ “According to a report from the Financial Times, the outside auditor hired by Trump Media & Technology Group to create a report used by investors for guidance has a history of using multiple names when signing off on documentation, which is raising some eyebrows.” “The report notes that BF Borgers accounting firm principal, Ben F. Borgers, has filed forms using 10 different names...” “The report notes that the U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board has previously found Borgers' firm (BF Borgers) "failed to properly check clients’ revenues, accounts receivable, debt levels, fair value assumptions and numerous other key financial metrics."” Steve Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Thomas Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Trump keeps begging for a "rally behind MAGA" — but his supporters aren't showing up to court It's not just that Fox News told them entering New York results in instant murder By AMANDA MARCOTTE April 24, 2024 https://www.salon.com/2024/04/24/keeps-begging-for-a-rally-behind-maga--but-his-supporters-arent-showing-up-to/ "Come to New York and rally to support me." "Violent criminals that are murdering people, killing people" are free to "do whatever they want." "And it's constantly reinforced by Fox News, which pushes out a series of misleading stories and images meant to scare their elderly suburbanite audiences into believing that going into the nation's largest city results in instant murder." "Nonetheless, Trump keeps pleading with his followers to run through what they've been told is a "bloodbath" ." "What's especially funny about all this is that Trump can't quite admit that his people just aren't showing up, and keeps on blaming the barricades and the cops."

I've always had a low opinion of Giuliani, even prior to 9/11. But it's only in the last several years that I've realized he's an idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Generation Gamma, anybody?) Americans aren't into foreign alphabets... with the exception of scientists, physicists, and engineers. I'll bet that after Generation Beta, Generation C will be used. And alternate names Generations A and B will be used for Generations Alpha and Beta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(slate.com) I am all for anti-war protests on campus. (And off campus.) But I have a suspicion that the police were called in because some of the protesters are disrupting normal campus functioning. A little like the Golden Gate Bridge being shut down due to protests there last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
