Newsweek, so grain of salt etc.
a spokesperson from the platform confirmed that the page … was “within its terms and services” despite people voicing their concerns about it on social media.

Former federal prosecutor Gene Rossi said: “The New York fraud trial opinion establishes one major theme: Trump World is a financial mirage perpetrated by a family of grifters and sycophant employees. The GoFundMe proposal is an unsurprising offshoot—and it against the platform’s strict rules and likely to end up in court with a request for an injunction or other civil remedy. Plus, there may be criminal implications if the GoFundMe sponsors know that what they are doing is itself a fraud. In sum, another Trump mess!”
He went after E Jean Carroll Saturday in Michigan.
I hope he keeps it up and gets a 3rd defamation case.
For her sake, I hope he shuts up and stops retraumatizing her and making her a target of his unhinged cultists.
Cohen suggested that a cash-strapped Trump could sell sensitive government information that he was privy to before and after his presidency.
“One of the biggest fears I have about having Donald Trump behind bars is that he would sell this information for a bag of tuna or a book of stamps,” Cohen said.
“He doesn’t care about America,” he continued. “And I say this not to be hyperbolic. I say this as fact, knowing him for as long as I’ve known him. He will sell that information to anyone, because he doesn’t care about anyone or anything other than himself. Plain and simple.”
Have “bags of tuna” replaced cigarettes as a form of prison currency now?
Yes. For quite some time- no smoking in prison.
Though I think it’s mackerel at the prison commissary. Can’t even get damn tuna.
Interesting; I would imagine the form factor alone would make packaged fish a more awkward unit of currency than a pack of cigarettes. How does one make change?
I wonder if anyone has tried fruit-by-the-foot.
I’m sure he’d do that in a heartbeat, but my hope is that the man doesn’t even still have any particularly sensitive information that
- He’s managed to correctly memorize
- That he hasn’t already blabbed
and - That our adversaries would believe was real and accurate information, given the source
At any rate, fear of him being tempted to blab more secrets would be a terrible reason to keep him out of jail.
I don’t think it’s on the commissary list. And the packs of mackerel became default currency because they cost a buck when it started.
I love that the context of that explanation is a story about how SBF will be forced to adapt to using a decidedly non-digital form of currency.
Especially if someone had to hide it in their suitcase.
I, for one, prefer smoked tuna to smoking a cigarette…
Me too, but it’s my understanding that non-smokers participated in the cigarettes-as-currency prison economy too, just as I imagine people who don’t eat seafood are now presumably doing with the fish-as-currency system.
I hope it’s packed in oil.
More butt ugly gold shoes ASAP!
