#MoscowMarjorie tried to blackmail the House Speaker into doing Putin's bidding to halt support for #Ukraine against Russia's genocidal war but she failed spectacularly.
American allies in Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan received funding while Speaker Johnson kept his position in a 359 to 43 vote with bipartisan support.
#Russia must loose this war, traitor #MTG needs to be voted out in November!
Written like a ‘D-‘ Jr high school student’s, written-last-minute paper; rambling, run-on sentences, non sensical resolution to remove Speaker Mike Johnson.
I mean so embarrassingly badly written- what a waste of time!
#FoxNews called me an idiot. That was literally their headline. They called me an idiot - #MTG
#MoscowMarjorie reached a new low. Lenin talked about..useful idiots..she's mouthing #Russian #propaganda -#KenBuck

In October 2021, Trump launched Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) and TruthSocial, along with an ambitious plan to build a media empire that he claimed would compete with the likes of Twitter, Facebook, and Netflix. To do this, he would need to raise some serious cash. Enter Digital World Acquisition Corp., a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), a shell company to raise money and identify a merger target to take it public. Fast forward to October 2023. Digital World is collapsing, and it’s taking Abu Dhabi-based ARC Global Capital LLC and other investors down with it. After Digital World initially raised $1 billion in private investments to merge with TMTG, it is now returning $533 million back to investors. Shares of Digital World dropped to $15.54 on the news from a peak of $97 in March 2022. Digital World’s 2022 Annual Report, published April 26, 2023, reveals that ARC Global Capital owned 3.8% of Digital’s Class A common stock and 76.4% of Class B common stock, amounting to 14.8% of the SPAC’s total shares outstanding. According to ARC Global’s website, “Since its inception, ARC Global Investment Capital LLC has invested in transactions totaling in excess of $2bn in combined enterprise value achieving top quartile returns and no losses to date.” That’s probably gonna need an edit pretty soon. Digital World still owes its independent accounting firm, Marcum LLP, $361,660 in fees incurred during 2021 and 2022. Perhaps that’s why Marcum stated in its audit of Digital World’s finances that “the company cash and working capital as of December 31, 2022 are not sufficient to complete its planned activities for a reasonable period of time.” As of December 31, 2022, Digital World has accumulated a total stockholders’ deficit of almost $31 million. Digital World originally set a deadline of September 2022 to merge with TMTG. However, the US Securities and Exchange Commission threw a wrench in those plans. Turns out, when you form a SPAC, you’re not supposed to have a predetermined acquisition target; the SPAC is supposed to seek potential acquisition targets rather than identify a target beforehand, as Digital World did. This, and many other legal missteps doomed the SPAC to multiple regulatory investigations. The SEC settled its case in July 2023, ruling that Digital World violated the antifraud provisions of federal securities laws, and assessed an $18 million penalty. Curiously, just before TMTG received subpoenas from the SEC and a New York grand jury, Trump resigned as board chairman, and Donald Trump Jr., and former Trump administration official Kash Patel resigned from TMTG’s board. Trump still owns 90% of TMTG. In 2022, the Southern District of New York investigated TMTG for money laundering, after finding it received a $8 million in loans: $2 million from Paxum Bank, based in Dominica and chartered under the Offshore Banking Act No. 8 of 1996. Paxum is partially owned by a former Russian government official who now runs a maritime agency under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation. The other $6 million came from “ES Family Trust” which shared a director with Paxum. Investors are now backing away, leaving Digital World with only $293 million – an amount that would be transferred to TMTG if the deal ever closes. That amount could dwindle as the potential for investors to request further redemptions remains. Losers include not only Trump, who won’t be realizing his dream to build a media juggernaut, but also early investors, such as Georgia congressional representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, who invested between $15,001 and $50,000 in Digital World at $94.20 in 2022. Her losses based on current stock valuation of $15.54 amount to -84%. Hope it was worth it, Marge. Count Devin Nunes among the losers as well. Devin Nunes (remember him?) vacated his congressional seat in favor of clinging to Trump’s disintegrating coattails as TMTG CEO. Nunes, despite representing California for nearly 20 years in Congress, is best known for losing his defamation lawsuit against a satirical Twitter account named Devin Nunes’ Cow. He can now add failed social media company CEO to his resume. TruthSocial, Trump’s “Twitter alternative” social media platform has managed to garner only about 2 million monthly active users. For comparison, X (formerly known as Twitter) has about 245 million daily active users. Facebook has about 3 billion monthly active users. Even Mastodon and its larger group of interoperable servers known as “The Fediverse,” which is owned by no single individual or company, has 10.7 million registered users of which 1.5 million are daily active users. So, it is safe to say that Truth Social and its parent TMTG can join a long list of Trump’s other business failures. #Trump #SPAC #DigitalWorld #TMTG #Finance #SocialMedia #USPol #USPolitics #News #Bankruptcy #Business #Investing #MarjorieTaylorGreene #DevinNunes

#MoscowMarjorie is good.
I've been using #EmptyGreene a lot, and with her recent floor speeches repeating #RussianPropaganda, I've also taken to using #PatsyGreen.
"It becomes clear that the GOP remains deeply divided on the question of Ukraine, mostly because a huge number of them are either part of the Putin caucus or in some way allied to it. We can see this in the final vote tally, which had 112 Republicans opposed to it and only 101 in favor.
This means that, once again, the 'majority of the majority' party voted against the measure."

Yesterday’s House vote in support of aid to Ukraine, sending the bill on to the Senate where passage is near assured, was not only historically significant but may mark a pivot point for the GOP on the question of Russia. For many months now, it seemed that the vote would never happen. First, the Republicans insisted upon attaching conditions to the aid bill, including prioritizing U.S. “border security.” That of course turned out to be an empty condition. After months of hard negotiations, arriving at a compromise border bill that most Democrats hated, Republicans in the House refused to even take it up, with Donald Trump insisting that a deal on the border in this election year would take away his best talking point.
