Did you know Ross Perot once loaned NASA $5 million for a sting operation to retrieve a Good Will Moon Rock gifted to Honduras from the U.S. after Apollo 17?
In the 1990s, there was a rash of con artists attempting to sell fake moon rocks and swindle people out of their life savings. Some people bought them as retirement plan investments.
A NASA investigator assigned to crack down on the surge of cons took out an ad in USA Today attempting to bait big cons. But what he got was an offer to sell the real thing. After creating a fictitious backstory and company, he met with the seller, who requested proof that the investigator had the funds to meet his price. He wanted $5 million and would not meet again without proof the alleged buyer was serious.
NASA and the Department of Justice refused to front him the money for the sting. On a whim, he decided to ask two-time presidential candidate Ross Perot for the money. He simply left a message with his secretary and didn’t expect much to come of it.
Just as he was about to give up, the phone rang. It was Ross Perot, who simply said, “What can I do for you, Joe?” When the investigator explained he needed someone to front him $5 million for a sting operation to retrieve a moon rock, Perot replied without question, “No problem, Joe.”
The transfer was initiated that very day and by the next, the agent had a statement to serve as proof that he had the funds to meet the seller’s price and the meeting was set.
To shorten this story, the seller was arrested by a Customs Officer posing as a bank official at the bank where the seller had the Good Will Moon Rock in a safe deposit box.
Ross Perot, who did this for no reward or glory, did in fact get his money back after the sting operation.

I feel like tearing off my clothes and dancing in the rain (snow on Tuesday). Ofc I'm entirely too old to do that. But...
We were SO right.

I wonder sometimes if Trump likes getting his ass kicked nationally and worldwide🤔
He COULD have this success too!!
I worked as a bouncer when I was young (I was 6'1" and 250lbs so avg large but nothing special) and big guys are used to being big and so they get a certain amount of prestige without ever having to prove themselves a threat. I found that if I gave big guys a chance to back down without losing face the vast majority would see the wisdom in that path.
The whole reason Russia has been slow rolling the Ukraine war has been to give Trump an easy out and the stupid arrogant ass cannot see it. I will bet any amount of money that Trump has never in his life been in a real fist fight and yet he is trying to intimidate a man who even though he is half Trump's size he would physically level Trump in a actual fight. And then back that up with Russia having More missiles that are newer technology than the USA.
Like in the movie "WARGAMES" the only way to win is to NOT play the game.
Pray that someone with sense can talk it into Trump...

TROUBLE IN UTAH: AAG Dhillon DEMANDS VOTER REGISTRATION FILES FROM LT. GOV. DEIDRE
Buhaha. Let the games begin.
Follow this thread: https://x.com/AndrewPiskadlo/status/1951451189746475310
I walk through exactly what DOJ is alleging—and what Utah’s been hiding.
Deidre Henderson has until July 29 to cough up:
Full statewide voter file
Duplicate & invalid registrants
Breakdown of non-citizen, felony, and incompetency flags
Data Utah falsely reported to the feds (263.7% removal discrepancy)
📄 DOJ letter:
All attached
📊 Removal data (EAVS):
Utah’s voter roll removals = 0.8% of total voters
Yet Utah reported removing 45,342 via confirmation notice → actual number: 17,196
(Find them attached)
📜 State law:
Ineligible voters = non-citizens, felons (without rights restored), and institutionalized persons.
Utah reported no categorized data for most counties.
🎭 Memes aside, this is serious:
Utah may be in noncompliance with NVRA, with evidence of systemic reporting fraud to federal agencies.
If DOJ ...
Watching people attempt to "unskew" polls conducted by all walks of this industry—ranging from Nate Cohn at The New York Times to Spencer Kimball at Emerson College to Tim Malloy at Quinnipiac—all to deny Donald Trump's gains against Joe Biden with various voting blocs, is more than a little sad.
The slew of recent polls over two weeks—to include no less than four today alone—have simply confirmed prior findings published from other pollsters who have previously been "unskewed". That includes your's truly and our work at BIG DATA POLL, Mark Penn at Harvard University, Patrick Ruffini at Echelon Insights, and many others.
I'm temped to equate this with an Occam's razor-like situation. But this debate is more about likelihood than simplicity.
Here's the Presidential Vote Preference Trend for Biden v. Trump going back to August 2020. The Public Polling Project did not begin asking the Rematch Question for 2024 until September 2021. However, we can still make some pretty important and interesting observations.
