$MMTLP What a crock of BS. The SEC Just Greenlit the DELETION of ALL Consolidated Audit Trail (CAT) Data Older Than 3 Years For years, MMTLP shareholders have been demanding access to historical CAT data to expose what we believe was systemic naked shorting, illegal order flow, and market manipulation that wiped out billions in retail value when our shares were forcibly converted/delisted. We’ve been stonewalled at every turn. FOIAs ignored. Congression inquiries ignored. Brokers hiding behind “proprietary” excuses. Now the SEC just handed Wall Street the ultimate get-out-of-jail-free card. From this press release (March 27, 2026): “delete certain CAT data, including all CAT data older than three years” This isn’t “cost savings.” This is legalized destruction of EVIDENCE. The very records that could finally prove our case, or the the SEC could use to DISPROVE US if they are so sure we are wrong - pre-2023 trade data, lifecycle linkages, late-reported trades... are all about to be permanently erased. And @SECPaulSAtkins calls this “progress"? Well I'm CALLING IT A COVER UP. You are allowing the CAT Plan Participants to purge the data now, and once it’s gone, it’s gone forever. And that, to MMTLP investors, equates to nothing short of Justice denied. Not legal advice at all, but I wish @JWesChristian would consider filing an emergency injunction RIGHT NOW in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (where the SEC is headquartered). This injunction would include a Temporary Restraining Order + Preliminary Injunction against the SEC and the CAT NMS Plan Participants. Unless I'm wrong, I believe the Administrative Procedure Act could allow one to argue that the rule is “arbitrary and capricious,” violates investor-protection mandates under the Exchange Act, and destroys evidence critical to ongoing private actions and investigations. To be honest, this is right up Wes' alley, and it wouldn't be out of line for him to do so considering that he is special counsel in a bankruptcy proceeding where this data could come into play. This causes irreparable harm to MMTLP (and other retail) investors who have relied on CAT data for years and there is no adequate remedy at the level of the law once this extremely important data is deleted. Public interest in preserving market transparency as it relates to MMTLP and MMAT (given the ongoing bankruptcy proceeding) outweighs “cost savings” for billion-dollar brokers, when right now this second, that information is EASILY ATTAINABLE. To be honest, every single affected ticker (every retail victim of old short-selling schemes just got screwed too) should be fighting this. This is not just an MMTLP issue. If they can erase the tape on us, they can erase it on anyone. We’ve waited years for this information as we've been told time and time again that "there is no problem" without being supplied a single shred of data to back that up. And now, they literally want to burn the very same data? At the very minimum, the CAT data for MMAT, TRCH, and MMTLP should be preserved. Shame on every single entity that lobbied with their money and power in favor of this absolute abomination. This is an affront to the principles at the core of operating a free and fair market. They should NOT be allowed to delete a SINGLE piece of information that is pertinent to ongoing matters involving theft from the investing public... and this shit is insane.

It's funny how in the 90s white collar crime was super complex and deep. Enron, Bernie Madoff defrauding people with complex webs of lies for decades, etc. In our era it's just people committing crimes and being like lol what are you gonna do arrest me

Stephen King sold the rights to The Shawshank Redemption for $5,000. The movie went on to make over $100 million. He never cashed the check. It started with a 20-year-old kid named Frank Darabont writing King a letter in 1980. He was an usher at a movie theater. He wanted to adapt one of King's short stories into a film. King had this deal, the "Dollar Baby," where students could adapt his short stories for $1. Darabont took the deal and made his little movie. King liked it. Liked it enough that when Darabont came back a few years later and asked for a bigger story, a short novel called "Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption," King said yes. The price was $5,000. King didn't think the story would work as a film. Darabont wrote the screenplay in 8 weeks. He took it to Castle Rock, a production company. Rob Reiner, who directed Stand By Me and Misery (also King stories), read it and offered Darabont around $2.5 million to hand over the director's chair. He wanted Tom Cruise and Harrison Ford for the leads. Darabont could barely pay rent at the time. He said no, took $750,000 and a cut of future profits, and directed it himself. It flopped. On almost 1,000 screens in October 1994, it made $2.4 million on its opening weekend. Total domestic run: $16 million against a $25 million budget. Up against Pulp Fiction and Forrest Gump that fall. Got 7 Oscar nominations. Won zero. Lost Best Picture to Gump. Freeman blamed the title. Nobody could even remember the word "Shawshank." Warner Bros. shipped 320,000 VHS tapes to video stores in 1995. Hollywood thought that was a dumb bet on a movie that tanked. It became the number one rental in America. Ted Turner had bought Castle Rock back in 1993, so his cable channel, TNT, got the rights to air it cheaply. Nobody fights over a flop. TNT started playing it in June 1997 and never really stopped. By 2013, the film had run on 15 cable channels, consuming 151 hours of airtime in a single year. A 2014 Wall Street Journal piece put the total at about $100 million in revenue. Home video alone: around $80 million, per a Warner Bros. executive. The Ohio State Reformatory, where they shot the movie, was supposed to be torn down after filming. Fans bought the building from Ohio for $1. By 2018, the "Shawshank Trail" tourist operation around it was pulling $16.9 million a year. I keep going back to that number. More per year than the film made in its entire first theatrical run. Shawshank has been the #1-rated movie on IMDb since 2008, when over 3 million people voted it ahead of The Godfather. King's uncashed $5,000 check? He framed it and mailed it back to Darabont with a note: "In case you ever need bail money. Love, Steve."

Jim Acosta: Here is the breaking news. The news is broken. We may not be able to put the pieces back together again if the Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery merger goes through and puts my former employer, CNN, under the control of the Ellison family. Trump has cracked the code on how to hurt the press in America. The news does not belong to the oligarchs. It belongs to us.

Brutal losses in the last two nights for my favorite basketball teams, the Houston Rockets and Texas Longhorns. I'm pissed at the sport right now.

You can take the "Clutch" out of Clutch City, @HoustonRockets. This 2025-26 team just has zero discipline or heart in the waning moments of games. Just an all-around disaster. I dont know what has happened to this team since December, but they're just completely cooked.

American is a healthy 28 year old, he decided to skip paying for health insurance this year because the cheapest plan was $900 per month with a high deductible He had to spend 2 nights in the ER without insurance, he breaks down the bill “This is my receipt from spending 2 days in the hospital: - It totaled about $24,000 - My CT scan alone was $8,300 - Laboratory, 6,000 - IV therapy, $1,020, $4,000 in total And while $24,000 seems like a lot of money, let me show you something. This is what I'm actually paying, $2,478 because when you don't have insurance, these hospitals give you a discount. They discounted $22,000 off of this bill” “But if I had insurance, I wouldn't have gotten that discount. So it would've been a $24,000 bill billed to my insurance, and then my insurance would've said, ‘Hey, you have a $5,000 deductible. You need to pay $5,000 for this last emergency room visit.’ Then you tack on the $900 a month that I'd be paying for that insurance. I'd be paying $20K this year for healthcare. So the craziest part about this is even if I have another hospital visit, by the end of this year, I'm still gonna be paying less than I would if I had insurance. At minimum, my cost for healthcare this year would've been $20,000 with insurance. Right now I'm at $2,400.” US Health Insurance is a scam

$MMTLP It's near impossible for retail to get a fair shake in the financial markets...... but why? Congressional Oversight is the biggest problem. 2021 RobinHood removed the buy button to stop a squeeze. 2022 FINRA U3 halts $MMTLP settlement issue concerns. 2023/24 Huge uptick in Dark pool usage, some see over 90% volume on certain tickers. 2025 SEC Paul Atkins gives a 2 year delay on short reporting data and moves to 2028. 2026 Sees open fraud, floats traded 10X in a day and a surge in FTDs. Congress and Regulators are totally ambiguous to any problems, but magically, they can be seen by retail.
