My book has a cover! It's about the 2000 election, the September 11 plot, Florida, and a whole lot more. It'll be out in February 2022.

When Trump returned to court after lunch, aide Boris Epshteyn handed CNN's Kaitlan Collins a stack of color photo printouts and said, "Can you give that to George when you see him?" She looked befuddled. Epshteyn added, "Conway.” Trump reportedly travels with a portable printer
What's on Trump's mind? Trump posted photos of George Conway at his 2016 Election Night party this afternoon on his Truth Social, apparently between breaks in the trial. "Mr. Kellyanne Conway celebrating my Victory in 2016!" he wrote.

David Rubenstein has well documented legislative interests before government. The president is pushing a major social spending bill that involves taxing the ultra-wealthy. And yet, Biden’s defenders are acting to this news as if it's insane to point out this out.

My own read on Juror 2, whose sympathies were the matter of much baseless speculation, is that he’s a super consumer of news. Follows Trump. Follows
@MuellerSheWrote

Following an account that posts Trump’s statements from Truth Social ≠ citing Truth Social as your primary source of news. Minor distinction, wildly different implications about Juror no. 2’s political sympathies.
