According to the New Yorker, Donald Trump and his family profited off the presidency by an estimated $4 billion in 2025 — mostly through shady crypto deals.
That amounts to $456,621 per hour.
But how are you doing?

In Minnesota, ICE agents are illegally racially profiling residents, drawing weapons during arrests, claiming people’s citizenship documents are fake, and leaving people with long-lasting injuries.
There is no excuse for Democrats to continue funding these jackbooted thugs.

Why is Trump posting racist memes about the Obamas in the late hours of the night?
Because he's racist.
But this is also perhaps a sign that his ongoing mental decline is getting even worse. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQHLciC67V8

Elon Musk's net worth just hit $800 billion. How?
One of his corporations acquired another one of his corporations.
Meanwhile, Elon's companies pay next to nothing in federal income taxes and get billions of dollars in government contracts.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

A former Trump official wants to build a massive data center in a remote corner of Greenland. Will it work?
Construction is yet to begin on the facility, but it's aiming to hit a capacity of 1.5 gigawatts by the end of 2028.
