Hi, everybody. I'm Brittany Lewis, a breaking news reporter here at Forbes. Joining me now is my Forbes

colleague, staff writer Zach Everson. Zach, thanks so much for joining me. Thanks for having me back,

Brittany. Zach, you and I have talked about Trump media plenty of times before. You're reporting

now, though, that they did lose $20 million last quarter,

but no fear that did not stop them from giving the CEO millions in stock. What can you tell us?

Well, I would rather be discussing the Taylor Swift new album since that's the bigger news.

But instead, let's go into Trump media. Yeah, they filed a quarterly report a couple weeks ago that they lost

$20 million in the quarter on just $883,000 in revenue. To give you some perspective,

that is about how much an average mall-based Chick-fil-A brings in in the course of a quarter.

You know, not one of those stand-alone chick-fil-aes, they do better than that, just one of the malls ones. So not great, but Devin Nunes, and according

to a filing of the company, made a few days after that, was given 348,000 restricted stock units.

Now, what those are are units that he can then exchange for shares with the company on a one-to-one

ratio. And he needs to be with the company over the next three years to get all of them.

He will get them in equal installment. So, you know, that was a nice little $4.9 million

based on Friday's clothes for a company that's not doing all that great on the balance sheet,

although it has launched

several new products and gone in some interesting ways in the recent months.

That really sounds like a carrot that Trump media is giving Devin Nunes, right?

Stay here for three years at least. Then you can cash out on the stock, make millions.

I'm curious if his performance reflects these millions.

How has his tenure been going at Trump Media, rather?

Is he qualified to be getting this much stock?
