(HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!)

...”The patent office said the company’s name was far too similar to other companies.

This included the Vero — True Social platform and the Truth Network, a Christian radio outfit.

“confusingly similar” to other entities, including Vero — True Social, an app-based social media platform, and the Truth Network, a Christian radio broadcast network.

Among the patent office’s concerns was that Truth Social’s name bore the “same dominant feature” — the word “Truth” — as the Truth Network. In relation to Vero — True Social, the patent office wrote that the “dominant wording TRUTH and TRUE communicate the same idea of being honest or emphasizing fact while networking socially.”

“Moreover, both marks also contain the wording SOCIAL meaning they look and sound similar generally outside of a small variation of TRUTH,” read the filing.”....

Obstruct, delay, hinder, interfere, lie, twist, pervert.

What do the raid on MarALago do? Took from the news cycle:

FBI entrapment cases in Michigan.

FBI leadership keeping the laptop from being looked at

1 year anniversary of disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal

CDC admitting that the vaccines don’t work.

With economic crash, inflation-turned-depression coming, I’m expecting World War IV will be the next distraction.

Oh, and UFOs........

I picked a word and did a quick search:

Horizon Airlines
Horizon Bank
Horizon Credit Union
Horizon Hobby
Horizon Worlds

That was just the first page of returns. I wonder if they had any trouble with their trademark applications.

“Truth Social” was rejected not because it seems “similar” to other trade names, but because some small minds do not want the word “Truth” associated in any way, shape, form, or manner, with the name of Donald J. Trump. They probably even object to the word “Social” being used in conjunction with anything related to Trump.

Talk about getting “triggered”.

Rule #1 - Do not be easily annoyed.

Rule #2 - Do not annoy others beyond the degree necessary to get their attention.

There is a big judgment factor that must be considered between these two rules.

Do a Google search for Truth Social. That’s how you find the close names that can cause the confusion.

I did that and I’m confused. I just looked at Page 1 and I counted 44 links to Trump’s Truth Social and ZERO to those confusion factors. Why don’t those confusion factors show up?

Maybe it’s a bad Google algorithm. Or maybe it’s just a totally screwed up and politicized Patent Office.

Maybe it’s just part of the plan to silence Trump at all costs.

USPTO almost always rejects TM or patent applications upon initial filing. Trump’s attorneys will adjust the application and resubmit. It is a process.

Now there is a plan I can back.

Except for the Pentagon. All officers above Lt. Col. are fired unless they can prove they are not woke. Since none of them resigned due to the devastating debacle in Afghanistan one can only assume they are butt licking yes “its”. The above sentence applies to any two legged human (“it”) officer. I don’t give a damn what pronouns are being used or what hormones said prime mate is taking or what the hell it feels it is. It is fired!

Sure. The name is two words, used together. “Truth” goes first, then “social.” That is unique.

“Face” is a very common word. So is “book.” Facebook is not unique enough. Take it down.

I know exactly where that Vero place is because I live in Vero Beach. It is an off the track strip mall building. My brother was sending me articles from them for a time and it was from Vero Beach so I decided to go see where it was. It looked quite empty. The person who ran it was a Christian minister supposedly and very far right I think
