New York Attorney General Letitia James was seen cracking up during former President Donald Trump's testimony, according to reporters in the courtroom.

...

"Trump, on NYAG Letitia James: 'She doesn't even know what 40 Wall Street is," Klasfeld posted. "NYAG is visibly cackling at the remark for a bit, then puts her head down to compose herself."

New York Daily News staff reporter Molly Crane-Newman, who was also in the courtroom, noted in a post on X that James' NYC office is "right next door" to 40 Wall Street.

There's a reason why conservative "free speech" platforms never work:

  • You need ads in order to pay for your company costs.
  • You need content moderation in order to get ads.
  • Content moderation drives off "free speech" users.
  • Website dies from lack of funds.

Elon could totally float the company, but it'll be a massive money pit overtime. They are shedding users (over 10% since the takeover) and ad revenue, and once there's a viable alternative, there will likely be a much larger Exodus, similar to what happened to Myspace users moving to Facebook.
