LGM's Paul Campos has given us "merely a list of a few highlights" of corruption by the Trump Crime Family just in the past 2 years. This is merely a taste of what Campos compiled:
*Trump founded a cryptocurrency firm at
the same moment he was deregulating the entire crypto industry. He then
bought a separate firm that he used to buy his own cryptocurrency,
while at the same time raising nearly one billion dollars from investors
to buy that very same cryptocurrency.
*He launched a meme coin, aka, a
lightly tarted up Ponzi scheme, that netted him hundreds of millions of
dollars, even as the coin lost 97% of its value. Mandatory financial
disclosures revealed eventually that investors had collectively lost
$3.8 billion on this scheme, while Trump himself had netted $636
million, since he made money on every transaction, whether the value of
the coin went up or down.
*Relatedly, he received the benefit of
enormous crypto “investments” from foreign nationals, that were often
barely disguised bribes. He pardoned one of these investors, Changpeng
Zhao, the founder of Binance, wiping out a serious criminal conviction.
Prior to Trump issuing this pardon, Binance had provided critical
software and infrastructure to World Liberty Financial, the
cryptocurrency start-up co-founded by Trump and his sons.
*His son-in-law Jared Kushner, a man
with no experience in either high finance investment or international
diplomacy, was given two billion dollars to manage by Saudi Arabia –
this generated a $40 million investment fee per year for Kushner – and
then was appointed by Trump to handle wartime negotiations with Iran,
Saudi Arabia’s bitterest regional rival. In the midst of the
negotiation, Kushner solicited five billion more dollars for his fund
from the Saudis and other Middle Eastern governments.
*In the summer of 2025, the nation of
Qatar gave Trump a $400 million luxury jumbo jet as a gift. This was a
completely unambiguous violation of the Constitution’s emoluments
clause...
There are several more "highlights" that you may be familiar with, since the corruption has been out in the open for all to see and for the corporate, compromised media to largely ignore.
In a mid-term election season where one of the public's main concerns is "corruption in Washington," it helps to keep reminding everyone that we're living under the most corrupt regime, with the most irredeemably corrupt Grifter-in-Chief, that has ever taken power in our country.
And now is the time for the voters of this country to start doing something tangible about it.
