For a minute I actually thought you meant Pravda, as in the Russian state sponsored media in Russia not the Russian state sponsored media in the US.

And it turns out that this Knight financial company may not have the ready assets to cover the bond, as is required under NY state law. But they are using the fact that they are not registered in NY to do business as a bond company as an excuse as to why they don’t have to follow NY State law for bond companies.

That, ladies and gentlemen is the very definition of chutzpah.

I’m not licenced to drive a car, therefore I don’t have to obey traffic laws.

Isn’t that how it works?

Why can’t trump’s cases move that quickly?

I’ve mentioned something similar earlier, but the prison could also serve as his presidential library.

Republican Rep. [Marjorie Taylor Greene](https://www.businessinsider.com/mtg-marjorie-taylor-greene-stock-investments-congress-2022-7) said the New York City earthquake on Friday is a sign the nation needs to “repent.”

Hmmm. Wonder how she’s gonna spin this?

These two statements are making the same kind of asinine association. Please, just don’t.
