100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election.

70% of these donations went to Republicans.

Do you know anything about the restaurant layout of Captains Carnival or anything about it?

The main animatronic, Captain, was built by Elnicky Enterprises and could be controlled by a cast member! Here's two shots of him.

Aside from him, there was another stage that was a pirate band called The Beach Bones; not sure if they were also by Elnicky or not. I swear there was a photo of them around, but I can't find it now... Here's an ad for the place.
