Trump Found Guilty of Running Against Democrats
Front Page Magazine | May 31, 2024 | Daniel Greenfield

After deliberating for 9 hours, a jury of Trump’s Manhattan Trump-hating peers found him guilty of a crime that doesn’t exist anywhere in the legal codes, invented by a DA who had promised not to prosecute armed robberies but chose instead to prosecute a non-disclosure agreement.

… None of the 8 murders, 54 rapes, 204 burglaries, 303 robberies, 535 felony assaults or 891 grand larcenies that occurred in New York City the same week as the Trump trial garnered a fraction of the attention. That was bad news for the 26 shooting victims, including the 15-year-old girl, and the 54 rape victims, not to mention the other victims in the other 110 sex crimes that all had to take a backseat to a Democrat kangaroo court cutting a 2024 presidential election ad.

Toward the end, the Biden campaign even dispatched an angry and belligerent Robert De Niro (Dirty Grandpa, Little Fockers) in a COVID mask to yell something about Trump outside the courthouse. The prosecution’s case in the courthouse was little more coherent than that, but it didn’t matter with a jury that would have found Trump guilty sooner if it wasn’t for the free food.

After waiting right before the weekend, the jury announced that he was guilty. Of something.

Why Paying Women To Have More Babies Won’t Work
The Economist | 05/23/2024

As birth rates plunge, many politicians want to pour money into policies that might lead women to have more babies. Donald Trump has vowed to dish out bonuses if he returns to the White House. 

I’d like to see your citation for that quote from Donald Trump, Economist. It doesn’t appear in the article. How utterly unexpected.

No! Not Cracker Barrel!

Death of American staple as CEO tanks her own company’s stock by announcing they’re ‘not as relevant’ anymore
Daily Mail | 5/23/24

An iconic American eatery’s stock has plummeted in recent week after the company’s CEO said the restaurant is no longer ‘relevant’.

Cracker Barrel, the Southern country-themed restaurants with 662 locations across the nation, has been diminishing in popularity over the past decade – with its loyal clientele of elderly people failing to return after the pandemic.

The business tanked even more when its chief executive Julie Felss Masino told investors, ‘We’re just not as relevant as we once were.’

They put a rainbow rocking chair on the porch for pride month in their ads.
