Taxpayers funding Trump using two jets for a single trip is the actual "waste, fraud and abuse" that they're telling you rural hospital funding, Social Security, or Medicare is.

[Rep. Mike Levin @RepMikeLevin]

$2.5 million. That’s what a convicted fraudster told fellow inmates he’d arranged to pay to get out of prison early. Not through an appeal, not through a judge, but through a phone call to the president. 

David Gentile defrauded 10,000 investors out of $1.6 billion and was sentenced to seven years. Less than two weeks later, Trump commuted his entire sentence. When federal prosecutors started investigating how that happened, a DOJ official called the U.S. Attorney running the case, and the investigation was shut down within months. 

Not because they ran out of evidence. Because someone in Washington decided they shouldn’t keep looking. 

Welcome to Episode 9 of The Pardon Papers.

The emoluments clause is supposed to prevent the President from receiving foreign bribes.

That hasn’t stopped Trump’s family from receiving about $13 billion in “investments” from foreign governments, especially in the Middle East.

Jared Kushner & Trump's sons have raised $13 billion from foreign governments, mostly in the Middle East.

At the same time, Kushner serves as Special Envoy to the region, negotiating with the very countries with which he's financially conflicted.

The Trumps aren’t just using their family name to make money.

Their companies have received almost a billion $$ in federal contracts – a shocking and unprecedented display of corruption.

We just hit a harrowing milestone. There are now 1,000 hospitals, nursing homes, and clinics that have closed or are on the verge of closing since Republicans gutted Medicaid and the ACA to fund tax cuts the wealthy.

Billionaires over patients. With deadly consequences.

[Rep. Jared Huffman @RepHuffman]

Every American should be outraged by what Trump has done to our nation's 250th birthday celebration. What should have been a once-in-a-generation moment to unite the country has been turned into another vehicle for division, propaganda, and political gain.

We uncovered how he hijacked America 250 – watch to see how.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Trump bought up to $5M in Axon stock, a taser company, two weeks before ICE sought a contract for tasers.

He’s also bought stock in Palantir, Dell, and Nvidia — all of whom have been awarded massive government contracts.

Has a president ever profited so brazenly from the office?

[Steve Rattner @SteveRattner]

Trump’s net worth has nearly tripled in his second term, reaching $6.5 billion.

His administration is the most brazenly self-enriching in American history.

Let me tell you what just got reported, because you will not believe it until you see it laid out.

The Trump administration cut a billion-dollar tungsten deal with Kazakhstan. Tungsten is the metal we need for missile warheads, fighter jets, and computer chips. Trump himself got on the phone to close it. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick worked it from the inside, sending letters, leaning on the Kazakh president, lining up as much as $1.6 billion in federal financing.

Within weeks of those negotiations, investors tied to a firm partly owned by Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump took a 20% stake in an entity connected to the very same Kazakhstan project their father was negotiating. Around that same time, Cantor Fitzgerald, the firm run by Lutnick’s own sons, raised $210 million for a partner in the deal and pocketed the fees.

The fathers set the policy. The sons cashed in.

Six days after the Trump sons and their partners moved their money, Lutnick signed the final deal.

The reporting found one or both families have financial ties to at least 14 companies working with the government on critical mining deals.

The total federal funding flowing toward those companies tops $8.9 billion.

This is your tax money.

It is supposed to secure our supply chains and protect our troops, not pad the portfolios of the President’s children and the Commerce Secretary’s children.

This is the most corrupt administration in American history. It is not close.

We must keep digging, and keep asking the questions they do not want asked. Republicans in Congress are unwilling to lift a finger. Mike Johnson is running a protection racket.

Either we will end the corruption, or the corruption will be the end of us.

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

The irony of Republicans controlling all branches of government while

bankrupting the country, starting a war, sending money to fraudulent programs, violating the Constitution, giving corporations immunity...

but arguing that the biggest problem we have is “stolen elections.”

@HouseGOP LOL! Y'all have the most corrupt and inept POTUS this country has ever seen. Pilfering Billions into his and his families bank accounts through Insider trading galore and backdoor deals. He's made more in 1 year than his whole life put together! GTFOH #Grift #DontheCon

Bottomless corruption.

Unfathomable.

@fable @InfamousLiberal @XBOX Disappointing but I understand why. #Fable is still my most anticipated title and can't wait to see more. In the end more time = a more polished game and that's never a bad thing.

Donald Trump Jr. is who yall thought Hunter Biden was

[Alex Veremeyenko @alex_verem]

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.

Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.

Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."

Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."

Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.

They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.

One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."

Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.

That's the metered intelligence business model.

And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.
