An executive at Trump Media said he was removed from the Board after he refused Trump’s demand to give some of his shares in the company to Melania, and has now turned over messages, documents and audio to SEC alleging fraud.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/techn...whistleblower/

"...plans gave way to bitter infighting, technical failures and a chaotic jockeying for power among Trump allies that undermined its potential and left some employees crying at their desks."

...Investors, discouraged by the halted merger, have sent the SPAC’s share price plunging from a high of $175 to less than $18 on Friday.

Come Monday it should become a penny stock. Interesting article, Finn.

In a way, it has parallels to the Theranos story.

I wonder if Apple is going to continue offering this dreck at their App Store after this?

Google just starting carrying it last week, but only after TS agreed to implement a moderation policy.

Truth Social may be forced to liquidate next week. Its share price is now down to $14 from a high of $175 and they have until Sep. 8 to complete the merger with the SPAC that planned to take them over. Anyone stupid enough to invest in a Trump venture deserves the shellacking that nearly all of them ultimately receive. I hope Whell didn't put his whole nest egg in it.

To this news, the Lying Dotard posted:

“TRUTH SOCIAL IS THE GREATEST & ‘HOTTEST’ FORM, SYSTEM, & PLATFORM OF COMMUNICATION IN AMERICA, & INDEED THE WORLD, TODAY. THAT’S WHY I USE IT — THERE IS NOTHING THAT COMES EVEN CLOSE!!!”

Trump reminds me of the song, King Midas in Reverse.

Everything he touches turns to dust....

Gotta love who's in charge of his marketing. First it was the MAGA hats. Then the MAGA hats with #45 on the sides. Then came the MAGA hats with 45-47 on them.

Next will be 91 on the sides.
If he can monetize his mug shot, why not the number of indictments.
"I am the first President to score 91 indictments, no one even comes close".
In small print: "You are the only POTUS with any indictments".
