    My take. Not a mistake.

    A throwback to Julie Andrew's Thoroughly Modern Millie.

    Why????
    Bezos just paid a $40M bribe disguised as a movie. I've heard a lots of people don't want their names be credited at the end of the movie. That's saying something, in that industry where your only as good as your last project.....o_O:censored:

    The experts are saying its limited distribution to only extremist locations in red states and then when its available online Bezos and their ilk are going to force it on everyone and cook the books to make it seem like a super popular film that it isn't and never will be.

    I read she got 28 of the 40 million, and they spent another 35 on marketing.
    Really makes me want to cancel prime, apple, who else?

    As first lady, she was also supposed to be in charge of the East Wing of the White House and when she tried to assert herself to run that part of the facility her asshat husband had it bulldozed. So you can be fairly certain that she won't see a single penny from this BS.

    I'm pretty sure she stuffed it in something like a Swiss bank account. She's been with that asshat for more than two decades, so I'm sure she's picked a few things up.
    Unlike the Venezuelan oil that was seized and paid for in a Qatar account; instead of in the US Treasury. I liked Rubio's explanation to Congress; "It was placed in Qatar, so that US refiners with international warrants can't get to it. We'll audit every dollar that comes out of those accounts." What about money inflows - How is that accounting, when you can only see half the spreadsheet? But that is Trump accounting for you. So we could buy compliance from the current Venezuelan government. I ad-lib that last part..... LET ME BE CLEAR - So US corporations that is legally entitled to that money, can't get to it????? How are we suppose to fix our economy and how much is that blockade costing us tax payers on a daily basis???

    The movie should sell tickets well in the Villages in Florida.

    When the movie goes to cable or streaming, the same old geezers will use it as a go to sleep aid.

    That was the up-front payment for film rights, so she already has it.
    $40 M for the film rights alone (of which she kept 28 M for herself), another $35 M for promotion and marketing. By my understanding, that $75 M doesn't include any of the filming and production costs, so the total is even higher.

    Legally, that 'gift' is really given to the United States, not to any person. So a future Administration could requisition it for another use.
    I haven't heard any indication that he returned the Purple Heart medal donated to him a decade ago . . .

    Hey, he deserves that purple heart for his bone spurs otherwise he would've gone - NOT, maybe to Canada.

    He's already stated that he wants it parked next to his Presidential library. But your right, he's not really taking possession of it. He'll just hold onto the keys...:eek::D:LOL::ROFLMAO::rolleyes:

    My old boss got a university deferment and did a PHD in electronic engineering to get out of going to Vietnam. He never ended up in any Silicon valley firms, whereas I worked for two different ones without a BS in electrical engineering. You know what they say, those that can do; and those that can't teach. He was pretty slimy and I had him in HR on several occasions. He would lie to them and I showed them the emails that proved his accusations was a lie. I don't know what HR told him the second time around; but he left me alone after that. I did tell HR that I was compiling a pattern of abuse case against the facility for blaming lower ranking member with NO sign-off authority for his mistakes.:whistle:
