That is what his daddy, trump, said on TS, too.
chuck's book tour starts next week and I am sure he is more worried about that instead of Democracy.
A vain, backstabber, for sure.

#OnThisDay: 1497
The #BonfireOfTheVanities occurred when conservative supporters of radical friar Girolamo Savonarola gathered and burned thousands of books and items considered ‘sinful' as part of a campaign to make Florence "richer, more powerful, more glorious than ever." With him in charge.

Alt: If you're experienced with automation, journalism, or law, please help us save as much public domain content as we can.
Government data is published in the public domain. It's ours to save. No single person can do enough to stop this on their own.
Anyone who can help save our data from the bonfire, please help.
Anyone who can help spread the word, please do so.
Everyone should care about the government removing data from the public domain.
If you don't want 2025 to be 1984, please, help me save the data.
Looking for scripters to help automate scraping, servers to host it, web designers to make it accessible, journalists to help spread the word, and lawyers to help safeguard us from the backlash.
Please help!

An interesting failure. Tom Hanks is a rich guy having an affair. A wrong turn and an injured black kid turns him into the poster boy for white privilege. The whole city wants him in jail. The Bruce Willis stuff is terrible.

I'm new here, but I figure now would be a good time to let you all know about earlier posts. Have you ever heard of the La Piagnona? A bell that was flogged and exiled by Renaissance Florence.

La Piagnona: The Church Bell with a Criminal Record
The story of the Piagnona, a church bell in Florence is one of the most interesting, and yet obscure stories I’ve heard from the Italian Renaissance.
