B-Man Posted January 10 Posted January 10 (edited) Thread for January 20th news: Donald Trump will be inaugurated to his second term as president in ten days, and a massive amount of private money has been raised for the ceremony. The event will be paid for privately and not involve taxpayer dollars? That's a good thing, right? Well, not necessarily: God forbid tax dollars not be spent . I suspect I'm not the only one who thinks this story would have been presented differently had it been another candidate... "in a historic first, taxpayer funds will be spared from having to cover the costs of extravagant events mostly accessible only by the wealthy..." https://x.com/alecrogers1968/status/1877717199760105773?

The Frankish Reich Posted January 10 Posted January 10 Just now, B-Man said: Wrong thread. Ahh, I see. On this thread we should focus on the New Trump Grovelers rushing to donate money to his inauguration.

I think you’re in the wrong thread. This one is about the Inauguration Day. You want the “Breaking News Fox News Commentator Nominated to be a key DOJ official” thread. In related news you have to start the “Breaking News Fox News Commentator Nominated to be a key DOJ official” thread. 1

That is awesome that the tax payers won't have to have any more monies put on top of a huge deficit but there shouldn't be any secrets of who wants to give money to this cause . I hope other politicians might take something from this action in the future . I just wonder how much of the monies for this inauguration will be spent on chain link fencing around the capital just incase any one from the left shows up to put a damper on the festivities . 2

I dunno, but in unrelated news: I am expecting another emergency phone call from Trump to Alito to discuss the job application of someone who clerked for Alito 12 years ago, and not for any other purpose.

In a thread about private money and the inauguration. I’m going to allow it, though out of an abundance of caution I’m going to add B’s moniker to my Abundance of Caution list.

B-Man Posted January 10 Author Posted January 10 THE TIMES THEY ARE A-CHANGIN’: Apple CEO Tim Cook Donates $1 Million To Trump Inauguration. “Some will point out that Cook is not a Republican, and in fact donates to Democrats. Yes, that’s the point. Big executives used to routinely donate money to a President’s inauguration to curry favor. That Cook, the CEO of one of the largest corporations in the world, one with a granola-crunching lefty reputation to boot, would donate to Orange Cheeto Hitler, is a sign that the fear of being dragged by social justice warriors for daring to deal with Trump is finally dissipating.” https://www.battleswarmblog.com/?p=62331 1

(Frankie's approved sources) Having checked out the Battle Swarm Blog, I stand corrected. It is a useful source for those investigating the Old Texas Man Pissed Off By Ever-Rising Price of Store-Brand Diet Root Beer phenomenon. Why Is Diet Root Beer Up 131% Even Though Aluminum Is Down? This may count as an “old man yells at cloud” moment [furthest thing from my mind - ed.], but before the Flu Manchu lockdowns and the resultant supply chain breakage, HEB’s house brand of Diet Root Beer went for $2.25 a 12-pack. Now, here in early 2025, it’s going for $5.20. I calculate that as a 131% inflation rate over five years, considerably above the official 21.9% phony baloney “let’s lie for Biden” rate. So what gives? https://www.battleswarmblog.com/?p=62376 EDIT: wait a sec ... how do we know B-Man isn't "Battle Swarm" Blogger Lawrence Person? That would be peak Alt-Media.

He is completely out of ideas. Oh well, Back to the Inauguration thread. If what we’re hearing is believed, you might want to buy a neck brace - Trump will be entering the Oval Office at breakneck speed. 1
4th&long Posted January 10 Posted January 10 Can't wait for the clown show to kick off. I'm looking forward to more "inject light and bleech" press conferences.
