53. Here's the Formula:

Thu May 14, 2026, 08:40 PM

Thursday

One: Bibi sues the NYT, but expects a settlement before Discovery.

Two: NYT counsel is resistant to settle. All evidence points to a judgment in its favor.

Three: And ex deus machina! A phone call from President Donald J. Trump to the NYT. "Hey! Leave my BFF, Bibi, alone and give him his money. I wrote down a number for you . . . . . "

Four: NYT responds, "Are you out of your mind?"

Five: Trump tells them he can pick a date for its last publication.

Six: NYT acquiesces and asks should the check be made out to Bibi or בנימין נתניהו.

It's a shakedown and Bibi will be splitting his pot of gold with TSF.
