Hope so. I saw that they freaked out over at soon - to be - sold MSNBC. Panel says she dangerous because she knows her job, knows immigration & is very competent. These attributes scare them.
He had one success that really belonged to his co founders of Broadcast.com. I sat a meeting with them in Austin in about 1998 where they wanted to stream our play by play radio coverage of college sports. My firm had maybe 350 radio stations nationwide at that time. We said no, despite the fact that his enterprise was funded by the same Hicks Muse entity ours was, because we didn't have rights to pass on that content beyond the markets we broadcast in. Despite that, he must have gotten some traction with the pitch. Yahoo bought Broadcast.com for I think like $350 million which was big money then. 2000 shook out all the dot com flim flam but by then Cuban et al had shoveled their cash into other ventures - too rich to fail. OK, maybe he's smarter than I give him credit for but I suspect a lot of it was just plain luck. Broadcast.com now is a dead URL belonging to Yahoo. $350 million down the drain, I guess.
...appreciate the history Cranky. Creators of products/svcs that hitched their wagon to the early innernet probably got a lot richer than they deserved to be....its just that the innernet was a quantum leap forward in creating cheap 'volume' for them....
Right place at the right time. Like, what if great inventors like Edison had the 'net to market their stuff, you know, back in the day.
The really smart guy was a Las Vegas local whose biz was, I think, early personal computer installs in the IBM XT days. He somehow figured out how to register URL domains which were, as now, first come first serve. He got Vegas.com, several others related to that, the 50 states, a few others that are obvious. He then ran them on a small time basis waiting for the phone to ring and ring it did. Vegas.com alone brought millions.
In my humble opinion she should have been his first pick. She is outstanding in every respect. I do think President Trump however, played chess (while they played checkers) with the establishment repos and of course the dems in nominating Gaetz in the first place. He knew what they were going to say/do. He is making sure Hegseth and RFKjr as well as Gabbard are sworn in. They will be great. President Trump will make sure!
It's chess, not checkers, with these picks. You can't show your true intention because the Resistance will counter before you can fully deploy your strategy.
Cuban has struck out so many times it brings me to think his win with Broadcast.com was a lucky accident. Not sure he is very smart. Which of his Shark deals have ever worked out?
In fairness, most VC investors say they re happy if one out of five is a hit. For the rest, being careful about sunk costs and always having a wind down number mitigates losses. The winners clean up the messes from the bad choices.
According to reports on X, Cuban invested approximately $20 million in Shark Tank startups and now says he’s taken a net loss across all of those deals. I guess maybe he shouldn’t be criticizing an actual rocket scientist. Only time will tell but Elon Musk may go down in history as one of the greatest humanitarians ever…
Great pick! She was awesome in FL. I remember her and I wasn't even from FL, but she made a definite positive impact. She is MAGA and will not take any nonsense from the leftists or the RINOs.
A far better choice. Bondi has a strong record as a prosecutor and AG on violent crime, illegal drugs, and organized crime. I'm very happy with this nomination.
Well, unlike KAMALA, Pam Bondi has actually prosecuted criminals and has more between “her ears” than just a vacuous void. Also, unlike KAMALA, (who isn’t qualified to run a bordello) Bondi has the qualities and qualifications to be AG. Finally, almost anyone would be better than the very corrupt and desiccated Merrick Garland.
Typical choice for a misogynist, choosing a woman…. Wait a minute…
It's almost as it the fascist far-left is just full of lies..
Almost ?
Well, we could talk about what else they're full of, but that would be disrespectful to Bovine Soil enhancements.
Woo Hoo!! I love it!!! Go get ‘em girl!
I thought it was a smart move
The old saying is "be careful what you ask for."
Well, Pam Bondi is 100x worse an asshole to the democrats than Matt Gaetz could ever be,
They're so f cked.
If you have questions I'll answer...Washington, DC resident here....
Hope so. I saw that they freaked out over at soon - to be - sold MSNBC. Panel says she dangerous because she knows her job, knows immigration & is very competent. These attributes scare them.
Wasn't that just hysterical? 😅
Good to hear. Haven't heard much about her and I live in Florida. Sounds like a great choice from what I've read though.
Great choice
Anyone checked on the guy who said Trump doesn’t surround himself with strong women?
Amr Australia
It's almost as if lefties lie like it's a bodily function.
....hmmm, I like that Parker.
An involuntary reflex, like when the doc taps your knee with a hammer.
Well, the lies do sustain their existence, so yeah, like an essential bodily function. That's why truth is such an existential threat.
As Elon Musk noted, "Mark Cuban is proof that morons can become billionaires."

That would be the idiot Mark Cuban who recently scrubbed his X account.
That is the unmemorable loser.
I always knew that 'Pittsburgh' MarkCuban was an idiot, but I'm glad he 'outed' himself to many others in such a bold and dramatic way.
He could be leaving the country, headed for an English speaking former penal colony in the southern hemisphere......
I have seen her on Fox News on a number of occasions.
Intelligent, articulate and tough.
I am a retired prosecutor from Los Angeles County. 38 + years of service .
Excellent choice by President Trump.
Great during COVID in Florida. Canadians here fled to be in FLA during that time.
That was the real Pam Bondi who protects our freedom and liberty.
Thank-you for your service, SGC. I can imagine you saw a lot of horrible crimes there.
Thank you for your kind words.
Being born and raised in LA, it was my honor to serve those citizens.
I have left California and retired to Colorado. A beautiful state.
She will be awesome! She is America first and MAGA! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Maybe Gaetz was a feint all along.
In my humble opinion she should have been his first pick. She is outstanding in every respect. I do think President Trump however, played chess (while they played checkers) with the establishment repos and of course the dems in nominating Gaetz in the first place. He knew what they were going to say/do. He is making sure Hegseth and RFKjr as well as Gabbard are sworn in. They will be great. President Trump will make sure!

She probably was the first pick. They needed to eliminate the nuisance first. Pensacola is extremely red GOP. We will see what happens.
Pam Bondi is great. She’s tough and smart. Trump surrounded by strong intelligent women. Another “L” for Mark Cuban.
Cuban has struck out so many times it brings me to think his win with Broadcast.com was a lucky accident. Not sure he is very smart. Which of his Shark deals have ever worked out?

She is a smart, capable lawyer with good experience in the DA role. This should prove that Trump is not intimidated by strong women. I like it.
State AG role in FL
A far better choice. Bondi has a strong record as a prosecutor and AG on violent crime, illegal drugs, and organized crime. I'm very happy with this nomination.
I think she’s a great choice. What a chess game! ❤️
DT has read The “Art of War” by Sun Tzu. He’s applying Sun Tzu strategy without firing a single round.
Well, unlike KAMALA, Pam Bondi has actually prosecuted criminals and has more between “her ears” than just a vacuous void. Also, unlike KAMALA, (who isn’t qualified to run a bordello) Bondi has the qualities and qualifications to be AG. Finally, almost anyone would be better than the very corrupt and desiccated Merrick Garland.
Solid pick! Another example of Trump’s 4-D chess prowess; really exposes the RINOs for what they are—their days are numbered…
I still like the idea of Harmeet….but love Bondi!
I saw a quote by Harmeet earlier today which said Bondi is an “outstanding choice.” Nice to know that Harmeet thinks so highly of her.
Now where to put Harmeet...?
Head of FBI or one of the other alphabets
That is for Kash Patel.
Yeah, we have to get Harmeet into the game... brilliant and full-MAGA.
The more sensible choice less baggage and much less enemies
