Trump Org’s income in the first half of 2024 was $51 million.
In the first half of 2025 it rose to $864 million.
A massive percentage came from foreigners.
It should be the biggest scandal in the history of American politics.
But few even care.

🚨 26 billionaires have poured over $22 million into stopping Zohran Mamdani’s campaign for NYC mayor.
Bloomberg, Ackman, Walton, Wynn, Lauder; the list reads like a billionaire panic roll call.
They’re not donating out of civic duty. They’re defending a system that’s finally being challenged.
@rossjensen I remember being floored when Pujols would do it - not a metric I monitor but agree it’s very rare. And after checking my stats McGonigle had 46 MILB Ks and only 19 HRs so something else must drive the delta (foul ball outs maybe?)
Chris Murphy: "This is a country that's falling apart because Trump is in the middle of an authoritarian takeover. We're not on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We're in the middle of it ... I have no moral obligation to vote for a budget that literally funds the destruction of our democracy"
Reminder that it's a full-blown federal felony crime for anyone in the White House (and all Secretaries but the AG) to order the IRS to target people.
It's not just a crime to DO it, it's a federal crime for an employee not to REPORT such order to the Treasury Inspector General.
The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.
Want to know why?
Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.
Call GOP and tell them to swear in @AdelitaForAZ.
I went to war three times.
I served and put my life on the line to protect the free speech rights of my fellow Americans, some of whom I disagree with. That’s who we are as a country.
Trump is now trying to silence critics. That’s not what I fought for.
I won't remain silent.
This is why everything sucks. It's not trans people. It's not immigrants. You are being robbed blind before your eyes and those same people also own all the tech and media networks to tell you that the cause is not them
As much as I’d like to blame Patel and Bondi here it’s this guys problem.
Thomas Fugate III, a 22 year old Trump intern who was appointed to lead counter terrorism & threat prevention at DHS.
He gutted the department firing 75% of the staff, suggesting “domestic terror” and “domestic born shooters” weren’t the problem and that the department needed to “focus on illegals”
This department coordinates cross-agencies tips, and helps power online monitoring programs for proactively catching things like mass shootings before they happen.
But, given it’s got basically no staff, I imagine they are drowning in backlog, and too busy focused on the President’s made up agenda, and so didn’t catch the fact that the shooter was blatantly posting about his planned crimes online.
This is why we hire qualified people for offices; not partisan loyalists.
Today Trump’s loyalty pledge literally cost children their lives.
New analysis from CBO of the "Big Beautiful Bill" shows the bottom 20% get poorer, not much change for most of America, & the top 10% get meaningfully richer - and that's before tariffs
It was the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in a single law in history
🚨 We just won a forced subpoena of the Epstein files 8-2 in our @OversightDems subcommittee. This will force Chairman Comer to issue the subpoena. This is an enormous win by Oversight Democrats.
Right-wing cancel culture run wild! They’re not only canceling Colbert, global relief, the federal work force and their promise to release the Epstein File. Now they’re canceling Congress!
Trump never promised to rip Medicaid health care away from 17 million Americans. But he did.
What he did promise was to release the Epstein files to expose a child sex ring by the rich and powerful. But suddenly, the self-proclaimed “most transparent administration in history” is trying to sweep everything under the rug. Curious…
This is game over. Across multiple issue areas. Just a complete loss across the board. A loss for America, a loss for almost every American, egregious policies set in stone that will take decades to reverse if they can ever be reversed at all.
Paraphrasing a locked account I saw this quote tweeted on, but Trump is shilling his most unpopular piece of legislation of all time, and just bombed Iran (also widely hated). Dem leadership spending any amount of time smearing Zohran right now tells you all you need to know
All Boomer solutions to debt always return to some variation of "Let's sell our children's future for a more comfortable present."
It's our job to say "No" to that proposition, again and again and again.
