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.

Biden: The reflecting pool reflects something even worse than the narcissism and incompetence at the core of this administration. It’s the corruption. The corruption. The brazen, blatant corruption. Corruption on a scale never seen before in American history in any administration.
Trump has made billions of dollars since returning to the White House. Simply stunning to me.
He has no shame. Frankly, it’s embarrassing for the country. Trump couldn’t care less.
Making money off the presidency is one of the reasons he wants to be president
Piers Morgan grilled urban warfare expert John Spencer over his claim that Israel has achieved "the best ratio of civilian deaths to combatants in modern warfare" in Gaza, repeatedly demanding:
How many civilians have actually been killed?!
You don't know, do you?
JD Vance: "I think Nixon's historical legacy is enjoying a bit of a renaissance, and deservedly so. I joked that if Watergate happened tomorrow, it would be like a 12 hours news story. The idea that it took down a presidency is crazy."
Doss: My point is this if you don't want people to be curious about socialism, capitalism has to work a lot better.
Aidala: I don't think Trump would disagree with you.
Doss: Well, guess what? Today he was out here talking about America will never be a socialist country, America never will be a communist country. He just asked for $11 billion in subsidies for farmers because capitalism is killing American agriculture, his capitalistic war is not allowing fertilizer to get to the to American agriculture.
Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick:
No president in our history has stood more for God than this President.
He has been unashamed to speak the word of Jesus.
Johnson: If we were to lose the midterms, heaven forbid, these Democrats, y'all impeachment's not even the big concern. They will turn every committee of Congress into an investigative body, and they'll go after the president's family, the The cabinet, his donors and friends, half of you in this room will be targeted. I run the protection program. We’ll take care of you.
Massie: "I think it's ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, and the White House, and we're yelling 'election fraud'? I mean, we won all the damn elections."
Trump: I am thrilled to declare that America is back. We are respected by everybody. Nobody is laughing at us anymore. Two years ago they were laughing. We were a joke two years ago. We’re not a joke anymore.
Q: Have you seen the report into the Iran girls' school attack?
TRUMP: I have not seen it
Q: Why not?
TRUMP: I have to wait for it to be completed. I don't know they're ever gonna solve that problem. You could ask Pete. Maybe it wasn't our missile.
Sen. Tillis on Bill Pulte’s mass firings: “My guess is, based on his past experience, it's just going to be another hot-steamy pile of DOGE shit.”
“I think he's an incompetent sycophant and not the right person to lead DNI, and you're undermining” the next DNI
Ansari: I didn’t think I could be shocked by anything he does, but he was literally handed a bipartisan housing bill that would lower costs on a silver platter. It was such an easy win for him at a time when he’s so unpopular because of his cover-up of the Epstein files and this illegal war he screwed up. He could’ve said, “I did this big housing bill,” and because he is so committed to rigging the election, he chose to blow it all up. Their party is a mess. Trump is a joke.
