billionaire donations intensifies
- It’s actually pretty depressing how little money it takes to buy a senator. We’re talking hundreds to single digit thousands of dollars. Not really going to set that off, sadly.
Dog and pony show that concludes with a backroom deal and a slap on the wrist, as always.
- They'll roll out the Zuckbot for some public speaking so everyone can focus on how weird he is instead of anything else.
Coming to do what? Lick some boots?
Nice of them to pretend like they aren’t gonna do a 180 on the whole Biden anti trust stuff.
Bribes
- Yup. Thats what I think this is all about. They didn’t pay orange man enough money up front.
  Or he just wants more.
They could just shut down Meta and it would take a week for everyone to adjust.
- Don't tease me.
Nothing will happen.
I do have to say that it makes me chuckle, a lot, to see these billionaires paying trump millions and millions to get his blessings and favors, and then he turns around and fucks each of them in the ass.
Part by incompetency and stupidity, but also because he knows his position now, he can ask more, and more, and more, and he never had to deliver because what are they going to do?
In a perfect world, lead
