Calls people who brought suit sleazebags

The Court doesn’t have great spirit for our country

“We write regarding recent reports that your investment banking subsidiary has created a financial product for the purpose of betting on the outcome of litigation related to President Trump’s tariffs … Given that one of the purported architects of President Trump’s tariff policy is Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, your father and the former Chairman and CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald, LP, the firm’s actions raise obvious conflict-of-interest and insider dealing concerns,” Senators Wyden and Warren wrote. “If the President’s tariffs are ultimately declared unlawful, companies that paid the tariffs may be entitled to a refund of those duties from the U.S. Government. Public reporting indicates that Cantor has offered companies the opportunity to trade their legal claim to a future tariff refund in exchange for twenty to thirty percent of the duties the company paid … A Cantor representative reportedly said the firm has, ‘the capacity to trade up to several hundred million of these presently and can likely upsize that in the future to meet potential demand.’”
 
I had dinner with my father last night. Very smart guy with multiple postgraduate degrees. Also a very big MAGA lover. We started talking about Trump and everything. He's convinced that the Epstein files vindicated Trump...."the only mention of him was in 2006 when he wrote an email telling them to keep Epstein away."

He also said he was proud of Bondi in her hearing for "fighting back" and that she looked "really good." He only consumes Breitbart and Fox News, so that's the mindset of the brainwashed right.
 

“…Since Trump agreed to the higher number, White House aides and defense officials have run into logistical challenges surrounding where to put the money, because the amount is so large, the people said. The White House is more than two weeks behind its statutory deadline to send its budget proposal to Congress, in part because it is unclear how precisely to spend the additional $500 billion, according to the people familiar with the matter.…”
