  • Trump's latest grift? A Trump-endorsed Bible

    On paper, coup-attempting fascist leader and presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is about $4 billion richer now.   That’s thanks to some truly bizarre stock market shenanigans that assert his dorky little Twitter clone, Truth Social, to be worth $7 billion despite bringing in only $3.5 million in revenues while losing $45 million to do it. The man could retire in Moscow and be treated like the crooked king he always wanted to be for however many years of life he has left....

  • MAGA cultists bet big on Trump's latest grift

    On Tuesday, Donald Trump's latest grift went public—in the stock-market sense of the word.

It's difficult to explain just how weird this all is. Digital World’s stock price...
