The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Trump family-backed crypto firm World Liberty gets conditional bank charter approval

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency on Friday gave conditional approval to World Liberty Trust Co.’s application for a national trust bank, according to a letter posted on the OCC’s website. The trust company is sponsored by World Liberty Financial, which says on its website it is 38% owned by “an entity affiliated with Donald J. Trump and certain of his family members.”

We are all sure that Trump the Most Perfect did not exercise undue influence on regulators to make this happen, right? Trump doesn't have any conflict of interest that would cause him to personally profit from the regulator's actions, right? There is no way Trump the Serial Bankrupt will continue to go bankrupt, and demand a government handout, right?

He is entitled, right? He is a "JC", so that makes it OK, right?
