Political Roundtable / Truth social--8-11-26
« Last post by rainman2 on Today at 03:22:06 PM »
COLLAPSING! Trump's Truth Social is HEMORRHAGING users — even as he floods it with posts and demands Wall Street pay for early access.
Trump built Truth Social to be his personal megaphone. Turns out, fewer and fewer people are actually listening.
New data reveals Trump's social media platform has seen traffic collapse by roughly 36% year-over-year, according to Similarweb, an online traffic tracking firm cited by the New York Times. Monthly visitors dropped from an average of 28 million in the first seven months of 2025 to just 25 million during the same stretch this year — even as competitors like X and Threads posted HIGHER visitor numbers over the same period.
Howard Polskin, who's tracked right-wing media traffic for years, couldn't hide his shock: "When you think of how much Trump uses Truth Social as a megaphone you would think the numbers would be skyrocketing." Instead, they're cratering.
This comes at a brutal moment for Trump Media, which just reported a staggering $406 million net loss in the first quarter, while generating a mere $871,000 in actual revenue — mostly from Truth Social advertising. Let that ratio sink in: nearly half a billion dollars lost, less than a million dollars earned.
Desperate to squeeze profit out of a sinking platform, Trump Media recently launched a premium service selling Wall Street traders early access to Trump's posts for up to $100,000 a month — essentially monetizing insider-style trading advantages tied to presidential announcements. So far, only ten firms have bothered to sign up.
The stock has cratered nearly 80% since going public in 2024. The company employs roughly three dozen people and has posted losses every single quarter since launch. Its former CEO, ex-Congressman Devin Nunes, was already pushed out amid the chaos.
This is the platform Trump insists is essential to American discourse, where he announces wars, tariffs, and attacks on judges and journalists. Turns out, even his own supporters are increasingly choosing to look elsewhere. It couldn’t happen to a more deserving person.

Looks like 'the art of the deal' at its finest!    ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 ngc3

I too will jump on the bandwagon and thank Mr. Jeff for going thru the giant headaches that one must endure while organizing a production of an event of this scale! One could say that he only does this for his own agenda, but it still takes alot of time and effort no matter how many times you have done it!  I hope he gets the Casino because if he doesn't, racing will change as a whole as we know it, Two thumbs 👍  tmbz1 for another production well done!!

Is Mr. Gural the only major entity that owns racetracks that is not gambling oriented (MGM, Penn National, etc.)?

PS.   Parked to the half in 53:3. !!!!!

I would love to see how fast a horse like him could actually go in a "Time Trial" setting  🤔

so maybe if he wasnt parked would paced 1:44:4 ?


Not bad for a NW horse.

Lets all give a big shout out to two of the biggest dirtbags to ever hold a USTA license. That would be Tom Millici and Ken Koch who had two cripples that shouldn't have been racing break down at Monticello on the same day. They should have their licenses suspended forever. For sure, Vinovia was put down and who knows if Heart on my Sleeve is still breathing.

Thats really effed up, even for harness racing....
What recourse does the state or USTA have?
Or track could refuse their entries maybe?
Or is it "bad luck" and just shrug shoulders?

There is a funny meme somewhere about this when he took the bait and found the catering cart so he could eat Mcdonalds! 
I'm 100% serious on this.  Google/AI should have it.

Political Roundtable / Re: 7-13-26 the reflecting pool

Additional information:

House Judiciary Democrats launch a targeted probe into the sham charges that Jeanine Pirro brought against former Olympian David Hearn for the nonexistent Reflecting Pool vandalism.
The bill is coming due for MAGA corruption...
“How did this debacle happen? Why was Mr. Hearn charged with committing a felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison when the government knew he was innocent?" Congressman Jamie Raskin, the top Democrat on the committee, wrote in a letter to Pirro and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum.
In it, he demanded that they hand over the communications between their offices and with the White House that pertain to the prosecution, which was ultimately dropped. Specifically, Democrats want to see the "evidence" that Pirro's office presented to the grand jury.
"Did the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI) deliberately mislead prosecutors to cover up a ‘botched’ renovation by a company awarded a dubious $15 million insider no-bid contract?” Raskin wrote.
The answer to that question is, of course, yes. It was clear from day one to everyone not in the MAGA cult that the targeting of Hearn was a desperate attempt by Trump to manufacture evidence for his lie that the Reflecting Pool's disgusting green color and deteriorating lining were the result of "leftist vandals." In reality, the debacle was the natural result of handing out sweetheart deals to political cronies.
“Recent filings show that Ms. Pirro’s team of prosecutors was perfectly aware of Mr. Hearn’s likely innocence before they charged him with a felony. Indeed, a ‘Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool Damage Assessment’ dated two days before Mr. Hearn’s indictment, shows systemic failure and peeling of the liner around the area where Mr. Hearn’s alleged vandalism occurred,” Raskin wrote.
Pirro pursued the prosecution like a good little fascist lapdog but eventually ran into a brick wall called objective reality. Since there was zero evidence to support the case, there was zero chance that she could win it. Her office ultimately dropped the charges and admitted in a filing that "hasty and botched work” was the cause of the damage. That admission, in turn, caused Trump to fly off the handle on her.
“The conclusion seems inescapable that at least one, if not both, of you have misled the American public about the evidence and used it to corrupt and weaponize our justice system against an innocent 67-year-old American citizen," stated Raskin.
The letter is also demanding information on the Interior Department's clearly corrupt decison-making process.
“Interior officials wrote to the contractor as early as June 11 — more than a week before Mr. Hearn’s arrest — complaining that the pool liner was already peeling but did not turn over this key email to prosecutors until after Mr. Hearn was indicted," wrote Raskin, who went on to accuse Burgum of having "dutifully parroted President Trump’s delusional ravings."
“Did President Trump pressure or influence either Department to retaliate against and scapegoat an American citizen?” Raskin asked.
“At a minimum, it appears that members of the Trump Administration were ready and willing to imprison an innocent American for a decade in a desperate effort to soothe an ex-landlord’s wounded ego about a terrible paint job and wasteful contract," he added.
These kinds of probes are exactly what Republicans fear most heading into the midterm elections. Once Democrats retake control of Congress, Raskin will obtain subpoena powers, allowing him to exert the full force of the law to turn over every stone and uncover every crime.
Do you support prosecuting Jeanine Pirro?
