According to the article, the funds included "thousands of wire transfers for the purchase and sale of artwork for rich friends."

The art world is a notoriously unregulated milieu, and it is not unheard of for transactions to fall short of being on the up and up. The offense that springs to my mind right off is money laundering.

The fake Trump family motto is emblazoned in Tijuana cantina blinking Christmas tree lights on the gold spray-painted fake escutcheon Gorilla Glued poolside at Mar-a-Lardo:

EFF IT, EAT IT, STEAL IT

"I'll spell it out for you ... "

Wake me when you're done done.

Basically, you're probably good to go in a pool or bathtub, if you inspect first for Jurassics.
However, bear in mind, FL is swarming in gators and there are plenty of saltwater crocs in the south.

Brownshirt thugs.

Combined with Trump's enduring shackling to Epstein's ghost, Musk may well be sensing an opening as disaffected MAGAts peel off, cringing in embarrassment. (The rest will stay liplocked on Trump's rump come what may, because no one else will put up with their ignorance, stupidity, and hatred.)

The Epstein story sure has rattled Old Orange Julius.

Except ...

Pavlov's dogs = Trump's MAGAts

Jeffrey Epstein got a sweetheart deal from Alex Acosta during George Bush's presidency.
Donald Trump made Acosta a member of his Cabinet.
Epstein got picked up again and put in federal custody during Trump's first term.
That's also when he died.
In prison.
Under guard.
After being removed from suicide watch.
While Trump was in charge.

"However, there plenty of well educated reasonable people in Texas."

There are.
They probably all get together in a cantina in Austin on Alamo Day.
To mourn the passing of Coahuila y Tejas.

"He went on an unrelated tangent about his summer vacation plans earlier this month when he was asked a very basic question about how long detainees would be kept in the Alligator Alcatraz detention camp, and famously confused Nancy Pelosi and Nikki Haley up at a campaign event last year. These are just one of many examples. Who knows what Trump's mind will look like at the end of this term."

Indeed.

Looks like this lardarse's skin run to thin when it comes to his former buddy.

"Reagan used tell us ... "

Not much actually worth remembering?

Wow, Scotts, what a class in you getting your beehind handed to you on a cornflake.
Your tolerance for embarrassment should be ... embarrassing.

The Mason-Dixon Line appears to be a good place to start.

Really? Is that Trump's job now. Is he the international moral watchdog?

I dunno.
It's Wednesday.
Better ask him.

Trump may believe inflation is actually good for Trump. The number placed on the value of his indebted properties could well go up. At the same time, the number assigned to the value of his indebtedness on those properties might remain the same.

Waiting for Alex Acosta to explain that sweetheart deal he cut with Epstein.
The news of which Acosta failed to pass along to the man's victims.
Acosta went on to head up the Dept. of Labor ... under "former" Epstein buddy Trump
Acosta soon resigned because of heat generated by news of that sweetheart deal for Epstein.
Nope, nothing to see here.

I don't live in NYC, but I do have a rule that bars me (absent evidence compelling me to act otherwise) from voting for nepobabies.

Nope, nothing to see here, MAGAts.
Burp, grunt, and move along.
