#Trump’s Truth Social is now a public company. Experts warn its multibillion-dollar valuation defies logic

“Despite the late-day slide, Wall Street is still assigning Trump Media an eye-popping valuation of nearly $11 billion — a price tag that experts warn is untethered to reality.”

2/ Via Lisa Rubin:

Perhaps most importantly, he cannot talk abt prospective or actual jurors, period. That matters bc even though the pub won’t know their names, Trump himself has statutory right to know names of jurors in this NY state proceeding.

It’s common in this case for judge to release orders or opinions days after they are signed. But this 1? Signed today, same day Trump went after Cohen on Truth Soc & day after he attacked a senior lawyer in the DA’s office while cameras rolled.

A feeble and confused #Trump posts a typo-riddled all-caps rant misspelling “Biden,” “disinforms,” “misinforms,” and other basic words

A Truth Social post from Trump:

I'm not running to terminate the ACA, AS CROOKED JOE BUDEN
DISINFORMATES AND MISINFORMATES ALL THE TIME, I'm running to CLOSE

New York Judge Merchan imposed a gag order on Tuesday that prohibits #Trump from attacking witnesses, prosecutors and jurors, the latest effort to rein in the former president’s wrathful rhetoric about his legal opponents.

The judge imposed the order at the request of the Manhattan district attorney’s office, which brought the case against Trump.

Chuck Todd just attacked his own network, NBC News, over hiring Ronna McDaniel. "Our bosses owe you an apology for putting you in this situation," he told Kristen Welker on Meet the Press. "There's a reason why there's a lot of journalists at NBC News uncomfortable with this."

@franktaber@mas.to Agree.

Plus Trump himself IS a thread:

Incites violence.

National security.

Plus, Biden is addressing all those other things, AND engaging in a way that makes him relatable, sharp, and gets under Trump's skin, which makes Trump even more vulnerable.
