It's very possible that Trump is Musks brain chips patient zero. Or it's very possible Trumps medical attendant is a quackster.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Fresh off last week's historic guilty verdict, former President Donald Trump had a warning for his political opponents on Tuesday.

“I will appoint a real special prosecutor to go after the most corrupt president in the history of America, Joe Biden, and go after the Biden crime family,” Trump said in June at his Bedminster, New Jersey, residence, just hours after being arraigned at a federal courthouse in Miami on charges related to his handling of classified documents after he left the White House.

He also suggested there would be a "breaking point" for the public if he ends up serving jail time or imprisoned on house arrest after being found guilty in his hush money trial.

On Thursday, a New York jury found Trump guilty on all 34 felony counts in his hush money case, related to covering up payments to an adult film star in order to help 2016 campaign.

Judge Juan Merchan, who oversaw the hush money case, placed a gag order on Trump barring him from talking about jurors, potential witnesses and individual prosecutors that he has not lifted since the trial ended.

In January, after he continued to deny Carroll’s claims and attack her publicly, he was ordered to pay her an additional $83 million for defamation.


The original article contains 605 words, the summary contains 210 words. Saved 65%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
