I saw this on Yahoo Finance today and am wondering if true:
"The memecoins $TRUMP and $MELANIA, launched earlier this year, have plunged 92% and 99%, respectively, from their peaks. Trump Media & Technology Group, which has raised billions of dollars to buy bitcoin, is down 67% year to date."

It’s been a good weekend, all the family has left and I got to see Ha Ha Tonka at Fitzgeralds after their 9 hour drive from St Louis. This evening it’s Joel Paterson playing Hi-Fi Xmas at Molly’s House Concerts. So glad there are so many music choices in Chicago!

Just saw a Lexus commercial for a car that helps you parallel park. If you can’t do that on your own in Chicago you should be in prison.

Folks need a new plan to fight ICE. If they have 10 you have to have 100, if they have 100 get 1000 together. Tackle them, spray them, unmask them and go tell their friends and family who these un-American bastards are. Some will return to their jobs, but not all....
