"...Tucker Carlson accuses Donald Trump of shutting down assassination attempt investigation

Conservative pundit-turned-unlikely-Trump-nemesis Tucker Carlson has made the eye-popping accusation that Donald Trump shut down the investigation into the assassination attempt on his life in the summer of 2024.

On June 11, Carlson spoke with podcaster Mario Nawfal about lingering questions surrounding the Butler, Penn., rally where Trump was shot at by Thomas Matthew Crooks. Numerous aspects of the shooting led to conspiracy theories suggesting that the assassination attempt was staged by Trump to generate sympathy and momentum for his presidential campaign..."

He is not fit to be President, even if he is not a pedophile.

A lot of that is in stock in businesses he owns.  If you own businesses that you have founded, you also want to control a majority of voting shares, if you can.  You don't want to sell that.

He's so greasy, I wouldn't be surprised if the government didn't somehow end up with some shares.

They are taking their sweet time  taking Trump's name off The Kennedy Center. It looks like they're going to hang a tarp so there can't video of it actually happening. That seems a bit petty.

I don't think he had to buy in, in that sense.  I bet before any stock is sold, a certain percentage of the issued stock is his without paying a penny or at preferential rates, in the stock ownership sense.  I don't really know though.  That's not really my field of expertise.  It's always good to know what you don't know, especially as a lawyer.  I can always research, but you have to know what you don't know to want to do that.  The last thing I ever want is anyone coming back 3-5 years down the road and saying "NC Yankee said this was okay" ... and then in blows up in our face because I told them we are fine. So, if something is not clear, it's good to identify that it's not clear to you and then make it clear.

I don't care for your avitar. He broke up one off the best band ever.

You could say the same about Chris Cornell, but he went on to do well after Soundgarden. 

Scott Weiland too.

I almost have more respect for artists that can leave a band with huge success, change circumstances, and still have huge success.

That answers my question about why they're using scaffolding instead of the lifts they put it up with.
