  1. Over the spring, #Trump continued to praise #Dell at public events, most recently giving the company a shout-out during a White House Rose Garden luncheon.

    Less than 3 weeks later, Dell’s #stock surged in response to this week’s announcement that the #Defense Department has awarded the company’s federal subsidiary a major contract to oversee the procurement of Microsoft software for the #US #military.

  2. $1 gold-colored trump coin: Offensive !
    $250 bill with that horrible face: Insufferable !

    It was customary to die before your face goes on currency [except for monarchs]
    Ask me then

    Who wants a $250 note? Seems like just the thing for dope transactions, bribes ... congenial to the Trump Criminal Organization

    Remember when it was proposed:
    all $100 bills were to be called in because counterfeiting, used in illegal commerce, half of them were overseas etc. Then if you had no acceptable explanation for your huge amount of 100s, you'd be just out of luck.

    There was an idea that went nowhere fast - very upsetting to int'l criminals, corrupt officials, Trump/Saddam families...

  13. Philip Alito son of #Republican #maga #federalistSociety #leoleonard #SupremeCourt #Justice #SamuelAlito quietly working as lawyer in #Trump #Treasury Dept #Bessent. NOTUS reported Philip Alito’s position in Treasury Dept Office of #GeneralCounsel is a “closely guarded secret,” as the son of the #conservative jurist does not have a public LinkedIn profile, and the Treasury Department makes no mention of him on its official website. #corruption #collusion #SCOTUS #taxes #finance #ruleoflaw #IRS

  14. Company led by Republican fundraiser pardoned by Trump wins $106m federal contract

    There does not have to be a direct connection to the White House. The #toadies that #Trump has put into place know the connection. Trump does or says something. The person/company/group mentioned bids on a contract. The toady awards the contract because of his knowledge that the #TrumpRegime likes them..

  15. Ofir Birenbaum - the far-right israel supporter who took a covert film crew to a restaurant in Sydney to try to deliberately provoke an altercation with staff in order to try accusing them of 'Antisemitism' - has been found to have supplied ‘misleading and deceptive’ comments in his court case, Judges have found.

    "A pro-Israel 'activist' who claimed he was vindicated after a legal settlement with a Sydney Middle Eastern restaurant made “misleading and deceptive” comments, a federal court justice has said.

    Justice Robert Bromwich said on Thursday he couldn’t think of a “single judge” who would believe the behaviour was acceptable, as the long-running feud between Cairo Takeaway, a popular restaurant in Newtown, and Ofir Birenbaum, was again before the court."
