SThe most corrupt President in Amercan history.
BREAKING: Wall Street traders SHOCKED after Trump conducts nearly 4,000 stock trades in wild display of greed and corruption! Fresh financial disclosures reveal that Donald Trump went on a massive stock-buying spree during the first three months of 2026, racking up thousands of transactions worth between $220 million and $750 million. Among the companies he bought heavily into are a who’s who of giant companies including Meta, Boeing, Nvidia, Apple, Adobe, Proctor & Gamble, and Oracle, all of which are subject to heavy regulation and decisions by his own administration. Particularly damning is the fact that Trump purchased millions of dollars worth of Oracle stock right around the time his administration was helping the company secure a major deal to keep TikTok operating in the United States. Remember Donald “Drain the Swam” Trump, that oh-so-truthful Man of the People running for president? Well, it's no surprise he's been documented turning the presidency into a personal trading desk, buying and selling stocks in companies that have direct business before the federal government he controls. The White House, as usual, had no real answer when asked about the blatant conflicts of interest. But Donald K. Sherman, president of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, sure had one: “Rather than avoiding transactions involving industries with business before his administration,” Sherman said. “Trump has prioritized serving himself at the expense of public trust once again.” Corruption much? While Trump lectures everyone else about “America First,” he’s quietly making sure it's his own portfolio that comes first. Presidents are supposed to divest or put assets in blind trusts to avoid exactly this kind of self-dealing. Trump doesn't give a crap about trading rules or any other rules. He’s not just profiting off the presidency, he’s openly selling it piecemeal to the highest bidders. How on earth is Trump’s self-dealing and corruption not being stopped by some guardrail at some point? It is completely out of control. No one should be allowed to use the power of the presidency to line their own pockets. If you agree, please like and share.

Go go go!!!
Under oath, @AGPamBondi stated unequivocally that “There is no evidence Donald Trump committed a crime.” The Epstein files say otherwise, and she knows that. @RepTedLieu and I wrote a letter calling on the @TheJusticeDept to appoint a special counsel to investigate her for perjury. Our country’s top law enforcement officer cannot be a liar and a criminal. thehill.com/homenews/house/5…

I hope!!!
NEW: It’s abundantly clear Trump will stop at nothing to undermine the midterms this fall — and the DOJ is his weapon of choice. But experts say those efforts could be hindered by the department’s incompetence and inexperience, weak claims and consistent record of misleading the courts. democracydocket.com/analysis…

Looking forward to the day Trump ACTUALLY PAYS HER!!!
WOW! A NEW BOMBSHELL UPDATE: A federal appeals court upheld E. Jean Carroll's $83 million judgment against Trump. Judges called his conduct "remarkably high, perhaps unprecedented." He owes nearly $90 million with interest. He raped her, defamed her for 5 years, sent death threats her way, and promised to do it "a thousand times." Courts keep saying: Carroll told the truth. Trump didn't. This is accountability. And it's only the beginning. TRUMP IS A PREDATOR FULL STOP!

Right!
Premier of Greenland Jens-Frederik Nielsen posted the following on Facebook: It will be a no thank you from here. President Trump’s idea of sending an American hospital ship to Greenland has been noted. However, we have a public healthcare system where treatment is free for citizens. That is a deliberate choice — and a fundamental part of our society. That is not the case in the United States, where seeing a doctor comes at a cost. 💵💰 We are always open to dialogue and cooperation — including with the United States. But please speak with us instead of making more or less random statements on social media. 👍 Dialogue and cooperation require respect for the fact that decisions about our country are made here at home. 🇬🇱 (Photo of Jens-Frederik Nielsen with his Minister of Health)

I got a dollar that says Trump will start insulting Canada’s Carney—out of jealousy.
