Trump Pledges To Use Obscure 18th-Century Law To Marry Daughter

“We’re moving full steam ahead with ‘Operation Ivanka,’” said Trump, who credited his policy advisors with working around-the-clock for months to discover the loophole in a 1798 federal statute that would allow him to wed his eldest daughter within his first 100 days back in office.

Just a quick update! I'm still dealing with issues stemming from my bank and contact information getting leaked on the web. It has been an incredible hassle. But before going to the bank again I wanted to share this picture, I'm sure y'all would appreciate the humor. Not sure who is the photographer 😕.

Beautiful looking, but the spotted lanternfly is a real problem. Feeds on many plant species and is responsible for serious crop losses in some, notably grapes and fruit trees. Estimated annual losses in Pennsylvania alone at $554 million. We don't have it here north of the border yet, but it has been intercepted multiple times this year.

A post from the #HarrisWalz2024 campaign:

Voter: Why did you use your influence to tell Republicans to kill the bipartisan border security bill?

Trump: *refuses to answer*

Will Stancil:
This moment has gone viral because it's the most important question of the election. What's incredible is that it had to be asked by a construction worker because the political press refuses to focus on these questions or hold Trump's feet to the fire.

Trump is challenging another Jack Smith filing being unsealed before the election arguing and I quote:

'The public has a right to NOT have the filing unsealed as it might impact the way they vote."

CNN tried to find the makers of Trump’s new ‘Swiss-made’ watches. We ended up at a shopping center in Wyoming

While [Mark] Pierce defended the rights of his clients, including the makers of Trump watches and sneakers, to keep their details private, he said the former president’s track record as a businessman should lead to caution for those interested in purchasing a product he sells.
