If Jeannie Pirro got fired tonight it wasn’t because she was shamelessly incompetent and unethical—it was because she shamed Donald by confirming his unethical incompetence.

I stand by everything I said previously. At least with a major bank I know there is oversight, deposit insurance, and regulation for things like anti-money laundering.
Tweets from Karen K. Ho (@karenkho) on Nov 9, 2022.
1. "I don't report on finance anymore, but please do not connect your bank account to Twitter"

2. "there is no such thing as a guaranteed high yield, this transaction with Elon Musk will be incredibly risky and not insured by the FDIC or CDIC, and there are many reasons why financial accounts and traditional investments are closely regulated"

3. "I used to be a literal bank teller for several years and my parents both worked for major banks for two decades. If you feel like goofing around with money, buy a raffle ticket from a local charity. 

Do not give a social media company your bank information."

DEA analysts found Trump's boat strikes on alleged drug trafficking boats had failed to affect the supply or price of cocaine in the United States, and had led traffickers to diversify. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2026/0...

67 boat strikes. 221 dead. The cocaine hasn’t slowed, officials report.
The president says Operation Southern Spear has virtually ended drug trafficking by sea. Pentagon and DEA analysts have concluded otherwise.
