Honestly? The $400M plane from Qatar is quaint compared to his crypto scam, memecoin con, insider trading, and tariff shakedowns.

'A total reset': Trump touts 'great progress' in trade talks with China on tariffs โ€” USA TODAY President Trump said

No.

Trump is an inveterate liar. His statements should never be put in headlines.

News outlets must find out what actually occurred, put that in the headline, and then put Trump statements, with fact checks, at the end of the article.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name.

It is blatantly unconstitutional.

There are 813 billionaires in the US

or 1 for every 409,000 people.

And that's how many I want to see in our executive, legislative and judicial branches of government, which rounds out to zero.

When you destroy trust in institutions all across a society, the only thing that works is a dictatorship. This is the playbook.

The CFPB is one of the American peopleโ€™s best defenses against waste, fraud, and abuse.

Demolishing it will, of course, lead to more waste, fraud, and abuse.

Dozens of CFPB Workers Fired in After-Hours Blitz Some affected employees of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau were notified with an email that addressed them as [EmployeeFirstName][EmployeeLastName], [Job Title], [Division].

I'm hearing now that *every* technologist CFPB hired to investigate Big Tech was fired this evening. That's somewhere between 70-100 people.
