We knew this was coming.
Ah, right, I see… because the main vessel is a sailing yatch. so some practical stuff like a helipad (because, y’know, masts) or large conference rooms has to be over on a tender.
Which tender, BTW, would be itself a banger boat for anyone else in its own right, a 246-footer. Which for the rest of us would be the easy call, buy THIS one and be done with it.
So while he sails the winds, he’ll have an escort unit burning fuel right behind him. Ah, it’s good to be a super rich bastard…
I’ve read that the sailing yacht, the one for which the bridge is going to be temporarily removed, is costing him something like $500 million. If you imagine the tender yacht costs the same (and it probably doesn’t), the total cost is about a billion. As a fraction of his net worth, it’s as if someone worth a million dollars spent $5,000 on a boat, which isn’t all that much.
Concept art of what it’ll be like underway.
And do what – ban GoFundMe from Florida?
To put that in perspective, you could put all 4 of Cristobal Colombo’s original-voyage ships, bowsprit to stern, along the starboard side of that thing and not be able to see them from the port. Maybe the masts.
What’s that you say, he only had three? Fuck.
If there is a more egregiously misleading misnomer as Children’s Health Defense, I’m all ears.
A fucking Kennedy, at that.
Chilling.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they (or someone else) ordered the arrest of executives or something like that for some stretched-out excuse of criminal charges. (Yes, the execs would likely be out-of-state. No, I don’t think it would matter as far as announcing a stunt like this goes.)
Once someone does, and it doesn’t necessarily have to be a reelected Trump (though I’ve marked him as most likely), it may be a political game-changer, though of course it’d be better if it didn’t get to that point.
Yachts everywhere!
A sea of yachts!
YACHT SEA!!!
Protesters – (or someone) – in Ottawa attempt to burn down an apartment building full of people.
Based on the standard of reporting set by right-wing media, we are now allowed to claim that “rioters burned down Ottawa”.
OUCH!
It looks like gofundme is well on track to becoming the next fiendish enemy of the RWIdiosphere after they declared a woman’s efforts to obtain ivermectin for her dying husband “prohibited conduct” and shut down the panhandlery.
And a LEO, no less. How “low” can gfm sink!!1!?
36 thousand dollars???

The lowest GoodRx price for the most common version of ivermectin is around $29.72, 68% off the average retail price of $93.77
Just how fat is her husband?
She’s gonna need some money once she’s rid of him.
I guess it is good that she did not slowly realize that something was wrong.
I nominate this story for understatement of the month award.
Nick? Izzat you?
Oh.
Ok, then.
So, um…
Riiiiiiiiiiight, so then, you guys are causing all this shit for, um, what reason, again?
Ah, good, thanks, just checkin.
Even if the Canadian trucking protest was largely driven by truckers, and even if those truckers were 100% protesting vaccine mandates, even then statements by the CEO of the biggest trucking company in the country that “the mandate is not an issue” would hardly be representative of the position of the actual truck drivers.
As it is, with a few truckers and lots of other random people performing a protest I hardly see how it’s fair to characterize this CEO as part of the “you guys” who are causing trouble.
Noooooo kidding.
It was clear enough that the “you guys” would be in reference to the truckers, and the obviously salient point in my post was how this CEO has offered jack-shit in, um, “reasons”? for all this bullshit.
