Not sure if that one is true either, maybe somebody can verify.

It's OK, he donated his entire POTUS salary, so if he gets $10B-$15B back, it's all good.

Don't forget that Binance founder Zhao got pardoned by Trump. Without his software, Liberty Financial was dead in the water.

"In 2025, President Trump pardoned Changpeng Zhao, who had been convicted of anti-money-laundering compliance failures, after his company Binance had helped enrich World Liberty Financial.[5]

In 2025, a firm associated with the Abu Dhabi government purchased $2 billion worth of USD1 stablecoins from World Liberty and secretly bought a 49% stake in the company for half a billion dollars; shortly hereafter, the Trump administration approved a plan to give the UAE firm hundreds of thousands of advanced, scarce computer chips, despite national security concerns.[6][7]

Legal experts have described the UAE deal as a potential violation of the emoluments clause of the U.S. Constitution.[7]

$15 Billion with a B? Are you sure? That has to be something like 2 to 3 times his total net worth.

I just laugh at Trump suing for reputational damages because someone at the IRS leaked the truthful contents of what Trump submitted in his tax returns.

US foreign policy is now medieval https://iol.co.za/ios/opinion/2026-02-04-us-foreign-policy-is-now-medieval/

"Trump does not use tariffs, or the threat of them, as way of mobilizing state power but as "a rent-seeking strategy, a regime based on arbitrary decisions, aimed at extracting maximum wealth for the clique."

In this regime, the leaders of countries he targets have to offer special access to him or his family and associates. The tithes and tributes can range from gold crowns (South Korea) to fast-tracked Trump-branded golf courses (Vietnam, for instance), luxury jets (Qatar) or crypto-currency deals with the Trump family (United Arab Emirates).

One aspect of explicit tribute-seeking by the neo-royalist clique is of course the accumulation of vast riches. The Trump clan's businesses apparently made at least $4 billion since he returned to the White House.Non-family members of the clique are also doing well, as Trump re-channels, say, the oil riches of Venezuela, a country that he recently attacked and subdued……

Neo-royalism also sheds light on Trump's approach to legitimation. "I don't need international law," he recently said; "the only thing that can stop me" is "my own morality, my own mind."At home and abroad, Trump subscribes to what Goddard and Newman call "legitimation by exception: stories that explain why some actors are uniquely endowed with the right to wield sovereign power."

In his second inaugural speech, Trump said that he "was saved by God to Make America Great Again," and in prayer services at the Pentagon he has been praised as "divinely appointed." Such notions come rather close to the Mandate of Heaven once claimed by Chinese emperors, or the default notion by sovereigns in past centuries that "l'etat, c'est moi."

He is entitled to it for all the things he has been falsely accused of his entire life. Reparations, so to speak.

Trump sues his own government for billions. His political appointees will decide.

Will they split the loot, which all of us will have to pay for?

He's on both sides of the lawsuit. Talk about a conflict of interest. Talk about a massive joke.

Pathetic.

It's really truly outrageous.
But you know who told us this is exactly what s/he and 70 million voted for.

I think anyone who didn't see such horrors coming has half a brain.

And we now know, for sure, that that's exactly the case for my FoxNews brainwashed Alzheimer's mother who incidentally retains her right to vote.

Looks like a BANNER DAY for Trump and his minions:

1.) GDP at only 1.4%

2.) Core PCE at 3.0%

3.) SCOTUS strikes down the Trump Tariffs

Actually, no.
