trump (the former guy, defamer, and sexual assaulter)

Dairy Queen is thinking about opening in Australia, but there is already a cafe/catering business called Dairy Queen here that's been going for generations. A Quebecois couple bought a former DQ spot near Dania Beach just south of Fort Lauderdale decades ago and changed its name to 'Dairy Belle' to...

US v. Trump - Espionage Act - (9:23-cr-80101) District Court, S.D. Florida

I would imagine that one of the purposes of the lawyers starting the somewhat tortuous process of getting clearance will be to explain, in words with very few syllables, what the terms mean, what they can and can't access and the minutiae of why some stuff doesn't need to be formally classified as i...

The actual point she raises is that the slimming down has already taken place, non working royals have already been cut significantly, freebies like grace and favor accommodation etc have been drastically cut. As such continuing to harp on about it is rather redundant.
