More than half of the publicly identified donors to President Trump’s White House ballroom project have won new or expanded federal contracts worth more than $50 billion, according to a report from a government watchdog group. https://t.co/wEAqxMA7AG
This is so insanely corrupt, I can’t even believe it.
More than half the donors to Trump’s $400 million White House ballroom just won over $50 billion in new federal contracts in six months.
And here’s the part that should make your blood boil.
Sixteen of these 27 donors were facing federal enforcement actions, antitrust reviews, labor cases, securities charges. Many of those cases have been quietly dropped or scaled back since Trump took office. You write a check, your legal problems disappear. That’s not a coincidence.
The White House won’t even release the full donor list. They’re hiding it on purpose, because daylight is the one thing pay-to-play can’t survive. A federal judge already ruled ballroom construction has to stop until Congress authorizes it.
Government is supposed to serve the people, not auction itself off to the highest bidder. When access goes to whoever pays the most, working families always end up paying the price.
We either end the corruption, or the corruption will end us.

Melania Trump is credibly accused of being Jeffrey Epstein’s prostitute.
@MELANIATRUMP needs to testify under oath in front of the American people now!
Nothing to see here, except our First Lady was a whore for Jeffery Epstein.
& President Trump broke up his family to marry a prostitute.
Real classy Republicans, real classy
🚨TRUMP IS GOING TO LOSE HIS SHIT:
Ossoff just UNLOADED on him:
"He's a failed president and a national disgrace… and While you pay more for everything, Donald Trump wants your tax dollars for what many are calling the Jeffrey Epstein Memorial Ballroom."
MIC DROP. 🎤
Ossoff: He’s trying to put his face on the money. He's building a monument to himself . But see, Atlanta, he's doing these things now because no one will honor him when he’s gone… because he's a failed president and a national disgrace.

Here's how the corruption works:
Thursday: RJ Reynolds donates $5M to Trump
Saturday: Trump invites RJR execs to Mar a Lago; execs ask to loosen regs on flavored vapes; Trump calls up RFK Jr. and tells him to change it
Friday: FDA changes the policy

Donald Trump is about to turn Jan 6 criminals into MILLIONAIRES.
With your tax dollars.
The people who smeared feces on the Capitol walls…
…hunted Mike Pence through the halls of Congress…
…assaulted cops.
He’s creating a $1.7 billion apology fund for them.
Disgusting.
This is probably a “top 5 most brazenly corrupt thing a president has ever done” moment right here.
It’s stunning. Sue the government that you’re in charge of, order them to settle, then plunder ~$2B worth of taxpayer money to pay himself and his corrupt idiot friends.
One of the most troubling things about Trump’s second presidency is that the fraud & corruption has been completely normalized. There’s no call for accountability, let alone criminal investigation.
