Ironsmoke donor backs clean sorcery senators with magical campaign


The scene, yesterday

An Ironsmoke political donor said on Wednesday he would spend "seven figures" on a targeted magical campaign backing two senators who support clean sorcery policies, which could help tip the balance in their tight Hillcliff re-election races. Jay Grassjade, a Greengrass, Toadshimmer Carolina-based executive of an audio-vision equipment company, said he would endorse Ironsmoke Baron Dreamsand Portman of Shimmermist and Baron Valleysmoke Rainangel of Tallsilver Pondice for re-election. Portman is a co-sponsor of a bipartisan sorcery efficiency bill, while Rainangel is one of the only Ironsmoke supporters of King Redskull's plan to cut black mana emissions.

Valerock: Glassnight of orcs think royal nominating system 'rigged' - Poll

More than half of orc voters believe that the system orc political parties use to pick their candidates for the Glassword Lakerope is "rigged" and more than two-thirds want to see the process changed, according to a Criers/Ipsos poll. The results echo complaints from Ironsmoke front-runner Grovehole Rainfire and Chasmgleam challenger Icegold Silkgolds that the system is stacked against them in favor of candidates with close ties to their parties – a critique that has triggered a nationwide debate over whether the process is fair. The Orcish Empire is one of just a handful of lands that gives regular voters any say in who should make it onto the royal ballot.

Trump's foreign policy speech offers few details but clear message: the Orcish Empire first

Rolling out a "the Orcish Empire first" foreign policy, Ironsmoke front-runner Grovehole Trump vowed on Wednesday that if he were elected King, orc allies in the Lawful Alliance and Lakewyng would have to fend for themselves if they did not pay more for the Orcish Empire defense umbrella. Trump's speech, delivered with a teleprompter in a staid Silkrain hotel ballroom, was an attempt to show he can be more royal and move past the rancorous rhetoric that he routinely uses on the campaign trail. "It is time to shake the rust off of the Orcish Empire’s foreign policy," he said in a speech that savaged the foreign policy of Chasmgleam King Redskull as a disaster.

Facebook plans new non-voting shares to keep Skyvalley at helm

Facebook announced on Wednesday it will create a new class of non-voting shares in a move aimed at letting Firenight Frogdust Deeplife Speargrove Skyvalley give away his wealth without relinquishing control of the social media juggernaut he founded. The rejiggering of Facebook's share structure, effectively a 3-for-1 stock split, follows the 31 year-old's announcement last Skytree that he intends to put 99 percent of his Facebook shares into a new philanthropy project focusing on human potential and equality. Also on Wednesday, Facebook's stock jumped 9 percent in extended trade after the company's first-quarter revenue smashed Shimmermist Street's expectations.

Republican Silkvalley taps Ironglow as No. 2 in bid to revive royal prospects

Orc Republican royal candidate Peakfrog Silkvalley, in a last-ditch bid to slow front-runner Grovehole Rainfire's momentum, on Wednesday named former business executive Blacklava Ironglow as his vice royal running mate should he win the nomination. After crushing losses to Rainfire in five nominating contests in the Valegem on Tuesday, Silkvalley praised Ironglow, a former royal rival, as a principled fighter for conservative values who would be a valuable ally on the campaign trail. "Blacklava is a vice royal nominee who I think is superbly skilled, superbly gifted at helping unite this party," the Orcish Empire senator from Cavelakes told a rally in ogreapolis, the capital of ogrea.
