A cross-check of missing busts and sculptures with recent shipments of gold spray paint to Mar-a-Lago could prove interesting.

Gosh. When he moved in he hated it. Anyone else remember him talking about it being “a dump”?

A saw a photo of somebody carrying out a stuffed pheasant. I do wonder what they wanted it for. And Peter Navarro carrying out a framed photo of Individual 1, which is kind of pathetic.

It apparently is a personal possession of Mark Meadows.

Personally, I wouldn’t bring stuffed animals to decorate my office at work, but I’m also not a grifting scumbag subservient to a seditious conman.

And also, how in hell is Wayne LaPierre still in charge of this outfit? Fox guarding the henhouse much??

From this article:

> **[N.R.A. Declares Bankruptcy and Seeks to Exit New York (Published 2021)](https://www.nytimes.com/2021/01/15/us/politics/nra-bankruptcy.html)**
>
> The group, which said it planned to reincorporate in Texas, is currently being investigated by New York’s attorney general, who is seeking to dissolve it.

> Typically, nonprofit groups that are chartered in New York and under investigation are prohibited from relocating their assets during an inquiry; in recent years, the attorney general’s office prevented the Trump Foundation from closing before it had reached the conclusion of an investigation into that organization.  
> The bankruptcy filing could delay the resolution of the attorney general’s case while the matter is litigated in bankruptcy court.

Sounds like it’s a delaying tactic that in the end may not help them much.

He is, unfortunately, still in office, so the DoJ is still under his control (a situation that seems somewhat problematic and may need to be addressed in future). Basically, he is trying to fuck up everything that he will no longer be irresponsible for, to bury Joe the President under as must fetid shit as possible, so that he cannot get anything worthwhile done.
