DeSantis is lost. He knows schools are going to do masks, against his will, and he can’t figure out a way to look tough. He’s flailing. https://t.co/l9CoQZPR9x

Texas has one of the lowest vaccination rates, so they're bringing in medical personnel from other states to care for all their hospitalized COVID patients. Maybe also follow what those states are doing to get your vaccination rate up? https://t.co/tLiUb8TOlv

I tried to ask Desantis why he opposes common sense public health policies that will save lives but instead he used Florida police to kick me out of his tax payer funded press event. Follow me to support me as I continue to hold him accountable. pic.twitter.com/T0rOGavGkr

Easy pivot....Trump is gone, and, so the next bogeyman is Desantis. He is a threat nation ally; so, he must be taken down 24 hours a day by the fake media....yawn, yawn, yawn...

Published between 1986 and 1998, Spy magazine was the hip, satirical, bomb-throwing magazine du jour, and in 1990 the writers had a great idea for a prank: What would happen if you sent checks for small amounts to celebrities and saw who cashed them, putting to test the theory that every man (and woman) has a price? In their words:

Quote:

---

"We could however, send them checks for minuscule sums of moneysums so small they couldn't fund as much as a minute of the recipients' existenceand see who would bother to bank these teensy amounts of money."

---

Spy thought "some subterfuge" would be necessaryit'd be suspicious to get a check from the magazine that lampooned so many of the intended recipients. This was specifically true for Trump, who Spy once famously referred to as a "short-fingered vulgarian."

So, they created a fully funded and incorporated company called National Refund Clearinghouse, which allowed them to open a checking account. Then they drafted a letter explaining that the check was a refund for a small overcharge that had occurred in 1988what the celebrities had been overcharged for was never mentioned. They sent the checks out (initially for $1.11) to 58 well-known people like Cher, Henry Kissinger, and, of course, Donald Trump. Of the 58, 26 cashed the checksDonald included.

The magazine drafted a followup letter and checks for $0.64 to those 26 people to see who would take more free money. Thirteenincluding Donald Trumpdeposited the checks worth two quarters, a dime, and four pennies into their banks.

Then they went for one last score: in honor of those 13 people, 13 more checks for $0.13. Two people cashed them: a Saudi arms dealer named Adnan Khashoggi, and Donald Trump.

Seriously.

I read the article. It said Kashiggi endorsed the check. I didn't see where Trump did.

That said, usually an accountant or book keeper or personal assistant will have a pile of things to sign and the account owner just signs them all. If they said "We have all these checks to deposit, please sign them all" I doubt Trump would say "Well, wait, that one is for $0.13. Tear it up."

The fact that they mention McEnroe as not cashing it is funny because he told the story once of how he found an uncashed check for a tournament win in his house once. He was hardly on the ball with his finances.

I don't know what to tell you - it literally says it in the same sentence. Most people didn't cash the checks. But then, most people don't self-deal from their own charity, crash charity dinners, print fake magazine covers, have counterfeit art, claim to have won non-existent awards, hire people to hack online polls and then stiff them after losing, hire crisis actors to attend their announcements, etc.

You should reread.

It says:

"Khashoggi, who is on trial with Imelda Marcos in U.S. District Court, personally endorsed his check."
