A state bank account has been found in South Carolina with 1.8 Billion dollars in it.  And no one knows where it came from or what it's for.

QuoteAn audit of how the Treasurer’s Office and the Comptroller General’s Office communicate found they don’t do it well.

Trump sues Truth

The social media network, that is.  He's claiming that the co-founders 'aren't entitled to shares' because of the way they 'mismanaged' the platform, delaying it from going public. Therefore, he wants the courts to strip them of their shares.

The only headline that would be more hilarious is "Donald Trump sues self"

Buried at the end of your article - apparently the US is 'to blame' because our government didn't let them import aeronautical parts.  You'd think that if you can't get parts for your 1908 Model T, you'd consider getting a different car.  (Iran even has domestic helicopter production.)

(Additional note - they also have utility helicopters.  That was just the first link that came up.)

you'd think aircraft that old would have a ready market for parts on the black market.

Trump found guilty!

Maximum sentence of 4 years per count and/or a fine. Mitigating factors: first time offender, unrepentant.

Also non violent offense. My guess is probation, fines. House arrest at the worst. I highly doubt he's getting put in any kind of public prison. VIP privileges and such.

What I would like to happen is for all those of political standing to start distancing and leaving him to his fate to find a new canidate. And for his followers to start snapping out of their cult like trance.  

But that pipe dream seems to be dead. 

Already Bannon and those that would likely either lose power or go down with him are already spinning it as "Guilty of being a Patriot". Jim Jones and Charles Manson would be so proud.

Smol point - unrepentant would be an aggravating factor.

I wouldn't be completely against house arrest.  Just remember that Maralago isn't a residence, and 40 Wall St. is still potentially on the table for that fraud judgement.
