Big law firms bending the knee to Trump is futile & foolish—a tragic betrayal of trust & integrity. He’s already talking about detestable causes he’ll champion with their pro bono service. Deservedly, they’re losing clients & colleagues. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...
Hydrilla—an invasive, horrendously harmful plant—is plaguing the CT River & other waterways. It directly threatens both our state's wildlife & our boating, fishing, & recreational industries—hurting our environment & our economy. We need federal funding to combat its rapid spread.
Qatar’s $400 million plane gift, UAE’s $2 billion investment in his World Liberty Financial venture, other countries’ support for real estate deals—& more. All add to the meme coin corruption, funneling money into his pockets.
A President beholden to foreign interests is exactly what the Founders feared most when they barred any payment or benefit to any federal officer— it’s the Constitution’s emoluments clause. On the Senate floor Wednesday I asked for a vote. Republicans blocked it.
Americans deserve to know about Trump’s crypto currency buyers— because they’re a powerful potential threat to national security. Many are foreign investors, possibly with ties to China & other adversaries. Trump has put Presidential access & influence on the auction block.
I’ll continue my investigation, demanding facts about the biggest, most blatant, brazen corruption in our nation’s history— but don’t expect even a hint of investigative interest from federal law enforcement leaders, who are totally under Trump’s thumb.
These dedicated workers deserve decent compensation, pensions, & job security as they produce the best aircraft engines on the planet, vital to assuring that America has the strongest air force in the world.
After repeatedly rebuffing responsibility & lying, Boeing will now permanently escape accountability. Victims, families, & the flying public deserve better. They deserve justice, not this sham.
This special deal for Boeing is an outrageous injustice to victims & their families whose losses resulted from Boeing’s unforgivable failures. The crashes were directly due to Boeing’s flawed design & deliberate concealment.
This move is a disingenuous & dangerous effort to shield the Trump administration from legal challenges & consequences by attempting to make court orders unenforceable. I’ll fight against this Republican power grab bent on destroying our democracy.
Foreign governments & shady figures have figured out how to get to Trump: through his wallet. As he auctions off access to himself & his office, Trump becomes beholden to foreign power through private benefits—all while selling out the American public.
A crypto investor known as "Ogle" has worked as an advisor for Trump's crypto venture World Liberty Financial—a company I have launched a PSI inquiry into following reporting that the firm may be enabling the violation of government ethics requirements.
Sheldon Xia is the founder of BitMart, a crypto exchange registered in the Cayman Islands. Xia posted on X celebrating his spot on tonight's guest list, saying he was proud to support Trump's pro-crypto vision.
