## "Virtually no public information": Trump campaign pays over $3 million to mystery company

Authored by salon.com

Former President Donald Trump’s campaign has givem over $3 million to a mysterious company that appears to have been first incorporated in November of last year.

The owners of the limited liability company, called Launchpad Strategies LLC, are not publicly disclosed on campaign finance records, fitting with a strategy Trump’s campaign has used in the past to hide exactly whom the campaign is paying, NBC News reported.

While state business records show that Launchpad Strategies was incorporated in Delaware, campaign finance filings list an address in Raleigh, North Carolina.

Last week, however, state officials in North Carolina confirmed that it is not registered in the state.

The company has received $3.1 million in payments from the Trump campaign and an affiliated joint fundraising committee.

Federal and state campaign finance disclosure filings show that Launchpad Strategies has no history of political work for other state-level or federal candidates.

### Some AA And Indie Devs Say It’s Not Worth Putting Games On Xbox Without Game Pass Deal

Authored by respawnfirst.com

The expectation set by Microsoft’s successful subscription model has led to a challenging environment for indie and AA developers, where releasing games on Xbox without inclusion in Game Pass seems increasingly untenable.

And one of the things that came back from a few of those developers was the idea that it is not worth putting your game on Xbox without a Game Pass deal because Xbox consumers are essentially conditioned now to expect every game on Xbox Game Pass.”.
