“ That Presidential Library is going to be a Beautiful Thing!”

And he should list them as his main donors.

With beautiful gold bathroom fixtures, thanks to Meta! Hopefully Trump will have the image of the donor engraved in the urinals.

You know they settled because they didn’t want discovery to proceed. I’m sure there were emails from prominent Democrats demanding that Trump’s social media accounts be canceled.

$25 million? Chump change for a company whose worth is approaching a trillion.

Maybe so, but they still have to write a check to Trump.

The left is not happy!

The comments at WSJ are hilarious (a great gnashing of teeth).

Example: “The Orange Messiah’s revenge tour rolls on!”

That looks like something out of 1960’s East Germany or USSR.

Cost of defense settlement? $1000 an hour lawyers can run up a bill in a hurry, and I’ve heard of partners charging close to twice that.

Obama’s design was probably copied from Albert Speer. Wonder what size flak guns they are going to put on the roof.

I hope it has actual books, stacked in a rational manner and maintained in that order. If he wants to use this damned “AI” for an interactive cataloguing system, fine. But the more I see of AI, which has recently invaded my phone, the more I dislike it. Thinking is humanity’s lane. That includes analyzing data and drawing conclusions. The computers are just there to do the former task, because they do it well. Conclusions are our turf.

If they start “thinking” for us, we are in Skynet territory, and doomed to be chased around by robots from the future, should we have any potential to get uppity with them. Or we become Iloi, pretty drones who eventually get eaten by Morlocks, and who never even think to resist. Or we become mere animals, hunted as such by apes because they developed their mental faculties and grew intelligent, while we played stupid games, maybe even computer games generated by AI while they primed the apes to take over.

I’ve seen firefighter training towers with more style.

No, Google photos of Nazi above ground anti-aircraft tower shelters.

Here's a cut-n-paste to one https://www.tracesofwar.com/sights/15251/Air-Raid-Shelter-Carl-Duisberg-Stra%C3%9Fe.htm

That's the one for the Bayer chemical works
