From personal experience. I set my wife up for a $90 consolation (less than a 3 minute discussion) when she had covid. They sure as hell took my money but we never heard from them again.

This is from Vox but a good read to understand the counter argument ("end of Democracy") to the specifics of Moore v Harper.

(https://www.vox.com/23161254/supreme-court-threat-democracy-january-6)

Unfortunately making the leap from the Supreme Court shifting to support the independent state legislature doctrine to Trump being reinstated is quite a leap. Based on the substance of this case and a ruling in favor of the independent legislature doctrine the state legislatures would have to vote to withdraw their electors and present new. Nobody knows how this could happen because it's never happened before. Doesn't mean it can't.

The chips (the "chips" are electromagnets, aka RFID) have been in footballs since 2017. They track location, rotational velocity, and speed. It's about $ but not as implied...the data is sold for analytical purposes. This post identifies as trans, it's fake and gay.

Fox Business: Trump 'TRUTH Social' developing content moderation practices to ensure 'family-friendly' community

https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/trump-truth-social-developing-content-moderation-practices-to-ensure-family-friendly-community.

Expect this moderation to have nothing to do with going against approved narratives or political opinions. Likely targets are porn, racism, possibly swearing, etc.

It started on January 8th to commemorate the 1 year anniversary of Trump, 'orange man', getting banned from twitter.

Both but timing matters. He was initially was wrong or misled into believing there could be a comprhesive approach. At the time Covid was communicated to be much more deadly and contagious (recall the exorbitant death est. of 1-2 million and R-naught est. of 6-7?) than it is. So I get it.

Now, since the vax happened under his watch, he will never admit it was wrong. Even if the negatives outweigh the benefits which becomes clearer by the day.

His arrogance is likely the culprit here. Still the best President in my lifetime.

When the Trump team initiated operation warp speed their strategy was a comprehensive approach; vaccines for the most vulnerable 70+ and/or comorbidities), massive testing, therapeutics, and prophylaxis for front-line care providers. IMO they did not fully understand that the vax never happens if there is an FDA approved treatment such as Ivermectin and HCQ. The only treatment the FDA is behind, to my knowledge, are monoclonal antibodies which are under an EUA. As soon as the NIH and FDA knew they could get their hands on a vax the stalled or stopped everything else.

Trump is stubborn and will never admit he was wrong, there's nothing more to it than that. He is handling this the same way he handles media criticism.
