On Friday afternoon, the parent company behind Trump’s Truth Social site, Trump Media & Technology Group, voted to merge with Digital World Acquisition Corp, a move that will allow the site to be listed on the NASDAQ. The stock will be traded under the ticker “DJT.”

If valuations for the new entity hold, Trump could end up with somewhere between $3.5 and $4 billion in new net assets.

On Friday evening, Bill Maher and his panelists appeared distraught over the major windfall, as well as additional positive developments for the former president. “This guy is the luckiest guy in the world,” New York Magazine editor Kara Swisher said of the Truth Social news.

The video shows the frustration of the host and guests with Trump always swimming out of their traps with a grin on their faces. The exasperation of Trump being the "luckiest guy in the world" says it all.

Obviously, the court issues were cases designed to damage, not to win. The instigators were on a fools errand for personal gratification and they knew it.
Jack Smith is just a hit man on loan from the swamp.

My guess is he'll check the legalities of using the campaign cash, that Engoron tried to take all of, and then reimburse himself by selling a small percentage Truth Social.

Or.... is the tide turning???

[Miranda Devine] ..... "celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, here is a tale of financial shenanigans at the American Irish Historical Society, in which Trump-deranged New York Attorney General Letitia James is hoist by her own petard.

It involves a grand old building on Fifth Avenue, an unpaid loan, a fading family dynasty, a James Joyce theatrical production which almost ended in fisticuffs, and hypocrisy from the AG as obvious as a glass of green beer.

It all began when James Doyle, a wealthy Georgia businessman with a love of his Irish roots, joined the board of the nonprofit society, whose crown jewel is a rare Gilded Age mansion at 991 Fifth Ave., right across from Central Park and the Met.

Over the years, financial mismanagement and misfortune had befallen the society, and it was facing foreclosure. So in 2017, the board turned to Doyle for a $3 million loan, structured like a private mortgage. He was told that the Beaux-Arts townhouse was worth $80 million that included valuable air rights.

However, the society only made a few payments and Doyle soon found things weren’t quite as they seemed.

The society had been dominated for half a century by the Cahill family, and president emeritus Dr. Kevin Cahill was accused of treating the townhouse as his own “private club,” with one of his four sons, Christopher, becoming its “well-compensated executive director,” according to the New York Times. Christopher earned $88,459 in 2020, and between $134,768 and $179,402 in previous years, according to IRS returns.

Cahill, a tropical disease specialist said to have treated Pope John Paul II after he was shot, reportedly raised the money to renovate the mansion to its former glory when he took over in the 1970s. A stocky man with bushy white eyebrows, he would dress each year in morning coat and Irish tri-color sash to preside over the St. Patrick’s Day parade from its Fifth Avenue balcony. He held a grand annual gala where he would hand out gold medals to the great and the good.

Then, in 2019, his son Christopher, then 55, got embroiled in an ugly confrontation with the director of the Irish Repertory Theater, which was staging a play in the townhouse, adapted from the James Joyce short story “The Dead.”

“I’m going to kill you, Ciaran!” yelled Christopher, while lunging at the director after the performance, according to the Times.

The AG appointed an interim board of directors and Doyle was persuaded not to try to collect his money or foreclose on the mortgage before July 2023.

But by August 2023, he still hadn’t been repaid, so he initiated foreclosure proceedings — and promptly was blocked by the AG, who claimed the mortgage was invalid because he was a board member.

On Friday, Doyle launched a lawsuit against the society and requested a subpoena be issued against James requiring her to produce a raft of documents, including anything relating to campaign events hosted at the townhouse or any contributions to her political campaigns from the society or any of its members or directors.

Doyle’s lawyer, Tim Parlatore, alleges that James’ enthusiastic involvement in the Doyle case may be driven by “connections with the Defendant.”

If he is smart he will gradually diversify down to maybe 25% his ownership. When you own too much you are too tied down to ownership minutia.
IMO, the valuation of that company is on thin ice. To much in internet hype in general sending 5 million dollar companies into billion dollar valuations. I post on "X" but I belong to Truth social, and I'm not finding the hook.
