Why is nobody pointing out the obvious: Trump wants to use the massive new ballroom to hold huge fundraising dinners for his personal benefit? (He’ll say it’s fine because he paid for it with private donations, but he doesn’t give a damn what you think).

Is it beyond obvious Trump wants this massive garish ballroom so he can hold huge fundraising dinners (and contend - to the extent he cares – that this is okay because he paid for the building)? And is that why nobody is bothering to mention it?

Not remotely surprising from the author of the blood libel about (legal) Haitian immigrants eating cars and dogs. He LIED about receiving “numerous first hand accounts”, when nobody has ever come forward with a single one. How have people let that pass? Pure Nazi stuff.

Sinclair deserves every punishment that can be lawfully inflicted upon them. They are truly awful wastes of carbon. Also, they are spineless weasels.

"Either leave the U.N. or we need to bomb it."

Hi, FBI? I'd like to report someone for inciting violence. This man right here. Then you remember who leads the FBI...

So he's getting fired for violent rhetoric, right?

Do you live in a rational world or are you stuck here with the rest of us?

I would go further. Every blue state should pass a “stand your ground” law stating that anyone wearing a mask and refusing to show ID should be deemed a threat and can properly be subjected to lethal force in self-defense.

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

I can’t find any record of it, but I swear Chevy Chase once did a Weekend Update bit quoting racist Secretary of Agriculture Earl Butz as saying “I don’t judge a man by the color of his skin, I judge him by the width of his nose.”

GEIST: What is 'reasonable suspicion'? Is it an accent, a tattoo, a job?

TOM HOMAN: A lot of those things combined. We don't arrest people just based on their looks, but it's myriad of factors.

Have Trump or his flacks offered any theory as to how an incredibly accurate “forgery” of his signature came to be “planted” in the middle of a bound volume of birthday notes from 2003 in the files of the Epstein estate? Trump is in full Shaggy mode.

I have two children applying to law school. It really does scare me.

Ridiculous. As Piketty shows, making illiquid investments with professional managers has consistently produced outsized returns on college endowments. That Brown and Northwestern readily borrowed vast amounts proves that liquidity is not a problem for them.

Still enough material here for Judge Becker to have written a 20+ page opinion had he been given a chance. (I clerked for Judge Stapleton, many moons ago with Leo Strine, so I probably should have been more on the ball with my late night spitballing).

In truth, the more I think about it the weaker the claim gets, as the deal seems to be in the company’s best interests (at least in the short term) as a way of escaping Trump’s repugnant pressure tactics.

Greg Horowitz @gregoryhorowitz.bsky.social · Aug 23

I defer to your expertise esp on plaintiff side, but the claim need not be limited to saving Tan’s hide. Couldn’t it also be based on effectively making a payoff to curry government favor? Granted, the disingenuous “sale” of stock technically cost Intel nothing, but it is highly dilutive.

Greg Horowitz @gregoryhorowitz.bsky.social · Aug 23

Tan is indeed on the board — he left in 2022 but rejoined in March 2025. I don’t think the board per se is presumed independent, but an ad hoc committee of independent directors may have reviewed and approved the agreement. Still not a dispositive defense, though.

Greg Horowitz @gregoryhorowitz.bsky.social · Aug 23

It is true that the share price seems to have jumped on the announcement, which is problematic for any damage case. But it only takes one shareholder to act derivatively, and one may well take the position that Intel is injured by bribing Trump to save their CEO and curry government favor.

Greg Horowitz @gregoryhorowitz.bsky.social · Aug 23

Question for my lawyer friends: how does Intel escape a shareholder derivative suit alleging that the board and CEO breached their fiduciary duty when, in Trump’s words, Tan “walked in wanting to keep his job, and [] ended up giving us $10 billion”?

Absolutely as horrifying as one can imagine. How can anyone deny that we have descended into full fascism after this?

Atticus Finch (of Georgia) @atticus59914029.bsky.social · Aug 21

This is so, so bad. We have reached the point of the president's supporters calling other human beings cockroaches.

It is making me lose my mind that evangelical Christians support this.

I don’t want any of those abusive fundraising texts anyway. I’m tired of being relentlessly punished for the sin of having donated to Democratic candidates in the past. Aren’t they aware of the disincentives they’re creating?
