It isn’t just your imagination.  We really are witnessing a full-blown societal meltdown. 

Earlier today, a song entitled “We Don’t Need Another Hero” popped into my head.  Of course that song was recorded by Tina Turner for a 1985 film called “Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome” which featured Mel Gibson in his prime.  I hadn’t thought about that song for many years, and so I pulled it up on YouTube and (more…)

In a press release, the two firms unveiled the filing of "Amendment No. 1" to its Form S-4 Registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Publicly traded companies are required to file an SEC form S-4 to register any material information related to a merger or acquisition.

The latest filing included a "preliminary proxy statement" and a prospectus "concerning the proposed merger between TMTG, the parent company of social media platform Truth Social, and Digital World, a special purpose acquisition company," and "marks an important milestone in the proposed business combination," officials said.

Digital World entered into a merger agreement with TMTG in October 2022, but the deal has yet to be finalized amid multiple delays, including investigations by the SEC and the Department of Justice (DOJ).

Earlier this year, Digital World reached a tentative settlement of a penalty of $18 million with the SEC to settle charges alleging that the company violated anti-fraud provisions relating specifically to its IPO filings on form S-1 and the S-4 form.

The DOJ also announced charges against a former Digital World board member, Bruce Garelick, and two others who were arrested in June for insider trading related to the proposed merger with TMTG.
