@MuradSaeedPTI I know your regional issues are very important but could you not focus on national movement for IK in shorter tweets? You are one of very few trusted people so please don't waste this opportunity @MuradSaeedPTI
🇵🇰🇺🇸 Pakistan found a shortcut to Washington and it runs through the Trump family's wallet.
After the cypher, after Khan, after the military flipped Pakistan's entire foreign policy, Munir needed to make sure the relationship stuck. So when Trump moved into crypto, Pakistan built an entire government body around it overnight. The Pakistan Crypto Council appeared almost overnight, and within weeks of its creation the Trump family's own firm World Liberty Financial had a delegation on a plane to Islamabad.
That delegation was led by Zach Witkoff, son of Trump envoy Steve Witkoff, and it landed in Islamabad with one agenda. By the end of the visit, with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Munir both personally sitting in the room, Pakistan's Finance Minister had signed a deal committing to route a portion of Pakistan's annual remittances, somewhere between $36 to $38 billion a year, through the Trump family's own USD1 stablecoin. A deal that puts money directly through a firm the Trump family majority owns.
It kept going. When rare earth supply chains became a hot topic in Washington, Pakistan announced a sweeping $500 million rare earths agreement with a Missouri based company. Beyond a symbolic first shipment, nothing commercial has actually moved under that deal. When Trump floated an international stabilization force for Gaza, Pakistan volunteered troops before anyone asked twice.
The pattern is consistent. Every time Trump had a priority, Pakistan showed up with something to offer, crypto routes, rare earths, soldiers, whatever was needed to stay in the headlines and in Washington's good books.
Pakistan promised much and delivered little. But the promises were always enough to keep Islamabad relevant.
The cypher set all of this in motion. A government willing to put Trump family money ahead of its own national interest to keep the relationship alive.

⚡️ Drop Site News has published for the first time the full Cable I-0678 — the classified Pakistani diplomatic telegram dated March 7, 2022, that Imran Khan has cited as evidence of a U.S.-backed conspiracy to remove him from power.
The cable, sent from Pakistan’s ambassador in Washington to the Foreign Secretary in Islamabad, documents a luncheon meeting between Ambassador Asad Majeed Khan and U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asia Donald Lu.
According to the cable, Lu told the ambassador that Washington’s grievances with Khan’s government could be set aside if Khan were removed through a no-confidence vote. “I think if the no confidence vote against the Prime Minister succeeds, all will be forgiven in Washington because the Russia visit is being looked at as a decision by the Prime Minister,” Lu said, per the cable.
“Otherwise, I think it will be tough going ahead.”
In his own assessment, the ambassador wrote that Lu “could not have conveyed such a strong demarche without the express approval of the White House” and had “spoken out of turn on Pakistan’s internal political process.”
The cable was marked Secret, No Circulation, and distributed to Pakistan’s Secretary to the Prime Minister, Foreign Secretary, Chief of Army Staff, Director General of the ISI, and the Director of the SSP Section.
Khan was removed via no-confidence vote on April 9, 2022, six weeks after the meeting. He has been imprisoned since 2023, and has been held in solitary confinement since last year.
