Fucking outrageous. And highly illegal.
"Trump has grifted his entire life. Now he’s just taking it.
The State Department transferred $1.25 billion in foreign aid to Trump’s Board of Peace, pulling $1 billion from international disaster assistance, $200 million from peacekeeping operations, and $50 million from international organizations.
Money that Congress authorized for hurricanes and refugees, moved without a congressional vote, into a fund that Trump created by executive order and controls personally. When reporters asked the State Department about it, a spokesperson said they had nothing to announce at this time.
The Board of Peace has one defining characteristic. Trump controls it forever. He named himself chairman for life. No audits. No transparency requirements. No conflict of interest rules.
Countries pay $1 billion into a fund he runs to get a seat at the table. It has transferred nothing to Gaza, disclosed nothing about its spending, and received $1.25 billion of your disaster relief money without a word of explanation.
When he leaves the White House he keeps the fund. That is not a loophole. That is the design."
He’s Not Grifting Anymore. He’s Just Taking It. https://t.co/eYb5g4g9bR
Just simply a repost since this administration wants no other discussion on the benefits of #CommunityAction and went with the same year old tired rhetoric
I have had some time to think about Trumps mention of my Association in his 2026 budget proposal. Thank you to the @sfchronicle for publishing my opinion in response. #CommunityAction#csbg

Good read on what California’s CalAIM’s foundational architecture is up against. Great work recognized from @MCCAA_#communityaction#SDOH https://t.co/cgU2yf0L2a
Honey wake up, more MAGA corruption just dropped.
Meet Brad Bondi, brother of Attorney General Pam Bondi.
Brad Bondi is a high profile lawyer, he represents white collar individuals under investigation and/or prosecution from the Department of Justice which is lead by his sister.
Brad is actively accepting money from clients, likely in the millions, and then leveraging his connections to get people off.
Here are some of the people walking free because the DOJ is accepting back door bribes through family members:
Carolina Amesty : Charged with forgery and theft of government property (PPP loan fraud)
Sid Chakraverty: indicted for wire fraud, stole millions in tax dollars through phony invoicing and illegally claiming tax incentives.
Trevor Milton: Convicted of fraud, forced to pay $600 million in restitution - until Trump gave him a pardon. He was represented by Brad.
@rebs333@RomaroMiller@GenFlynn Then why did the press secretary defend it at first? Even if ignore that, then you are telling me we let an intern send out comms for the POTUS without any approval process. Sounds like great leadership practice.
#CAcommunityaction Information to know! We are listening in on Assembly Health Committee for the important informational hearing on how federal cuts from H.R. 1 have impacted and will impact California’s health care system. Tune in and watch with us: https://t.co/QKLAAjdyys…
I don’t care if it’s a Hail Mary in the CFP Semifinal, this should be called pass interference every time.
Miami got away with a clear penalty vs Ole Miss to win the Fiesta Bowl.
ESPN’s “officiating expert” calling this “mutual contact” is laughable…
My favorite part about Land Park so far is the fact that a turkey stays out front of the local butcher shop @taylorsmarket and taunts them daily. #Sacramento
@Zigmanfreud Pure coincidence to get lightening in the bottle but not that the new system is benefiting the fact their 4,000 yard QB and 1,400 yard RB were freshman.

tell me why they would hate this system that fed them players this year?
@Zigmanfreud Would you prefer these guys get recruited out of high school & sit on the bench behind a better player to develop while North Texas just keeps its normal record? “Not recruited out of HS” is misleading. Not given offer, sure, not told to go to group 5 first is a different story
Rod Paige, a Mississippi native, lifetime educator and the first Black person to serve as U.S. education secretary, died Tuesday at his home in Texas.

@m_francis@espn@NotreDame@NDFootball The CFP messed up. Might as well let their players go on to the next step and prep for the next season. Their superstars are not going to play a basic bowl game.
@MSTODAYnews Born is a little off. I wasn’t born in Mississippi (wife was) but raised there from the age of 4. We left as adults to further education & then came back “home.” We left again. She is a much needed OBGYN.
Sexism in her profession was the start, Tate getting reelected the end.
