Do you have a source for that? From what I’ve been able to find on the official [1] Trump store, they all stated that they are made in America [2].

[…]There will be alteration.[…]
I’m not claiming that there wouldn’t be some form of alteration — I’m just seeking the minimum amount of alterations as is pragmatically possible (ie avoiding something to this extent [1]).

I want the freedom to choose the dienterlacing technique [1] when I deinterlace.

41·2 months agoTikTok To Be Sold To Trump’s Right Wing Billionaire Buddies And Converted Into A Propaganda Mill [1.1]
The title feels misinformative to me given, the following from the article:
[…] Trump insiders claim to be zeroing in on a deal that would sell 80% of TikTok’s U.S. assets to […] [1.2]
To me, the title infers that TikTok is being sold with certainty, whereas the content of the article sates that a deal has yet to even be reached.

I just try to keep the mnemonic “I before E except after C” [1] in my brain.

When was the last time that you’ve tried using it?
[…] Looks pretty cool
Thank you 😊
[…] what kind of referencing software are you using for writing this kind of comment? […]
None 😄 It’s all done manually by me, atm. I’m sort of trying to iteratively develop my own referencing style/standard. More to your comment, though, I am considering writing a script to help me generate the references for things, as it can be a bit tedious for me at the moment to try and scrape the data when citing sources.
Do you have an example of what you mean?
