# This Weeks Discussion Theme: [Consoom Trumpler] (https://arete.network/polls/39f7e396-11a0-4c41-9cf4-deaf34f80341/)
In this weekly we consoooooooooom Trumpler! Unless you been living in a log cabin off grid for the last two weeks you likely know Trump has been arrested. So, what did he do? They must have finally gotten him for his trips to Epstein Island? Oops, wrong guy. Wait oh it must have been for his son’s shady business deals with Ukraine and China. Dang, wrong guy again. Oh, wait, it has something to do with that corn star Hurricane Denise? Wasn’t all this nonsense settled like years ago? Who knows... Just need to crack open a few more Dylan Mulvaney Bud Lights and turn on CNN. Is there any sports ball on?
 
 
 
 
 
Discussion ideas:
 
 
 
* What is your opinion on Trumps arrest?
* Is it really campaign finance fraud or just weaponized lawfare?
* Do you think Trumps arrest have harmed his prospects for 2024 or helped?

Content mirroring between [scored.co/c/ConsumeProduct](https://scored.co/c/ConsumeProduct) and [arete.network/b/ConsumeProduct](https://arete.network/b/ConsumeProduct) is now ready for an experimental test run. There are bound to be some issues starting out and changes may be reverted if anything goes catastrophically wrong.
   
I have tried my best to minimize the number of requests to the Scored API as much as possible, which means that feed updates won't happen in real time, but they should still be frequent enough to display fresh content (currently a 15 minute interval). Old posts will be updated when accessed directly or when listed on feeds.
   
I've made sure to respect content deletion and not retain deleted content, so as long as everything works as intended, content deleted by users on scored.co should become unavailable as soon as someone attempts to view it, if not prior to that through feed updates detecting discrepancies.
   
Any posts or comments you make on Arete Network's Consume Product board will be automatically crossposted to Scored by a bot account.
   
Mirrored content is by default hidden from Arete's front page, but you may choose to enable it in [your settings](https://arete.network/settings/), or turn it off entirely if you so desire.

The new Supreme Leader of Iran was elected by the Assembly of Experts. It is Mojtaba Khamenei, son of Ali Khamenei. His father, mother, wife, and one of his children were killed by the Jews on February 28th. According to some media outlets, he survived the attack with injuries. He is a patron/close backer of the Persevering Front party. This party is described as "the extreme end of the fundamentalist camp" and "Iran’s most radical party." The spiritual leader of this party is Mohammad Mahdi Mirbaqiri. Mirbaqiri expressed his satisfaction with Mojtaba's election in a video. Mirbaqiri seems to have gotten what he wanted. Mojtaba thus belongs to the ultra-hardline faction. This cannot and will not please Iran's enemies. And one of the experts himself declared: "We elected the one who is hated by the enemy."
