For nearly 50 years, every president separated their personal finances from the office.
Jimmy Carter put his family peanut business in a trust so no one could claim he profited from his decisions.
Donald Trump is the most corrupt president in American history.
It is not close.
The Constitution gives Congress the duty to expose self-dealing like this and hold the executive branch accountable.
Every Republican who took the same oath I did should be asking themselves why they are not doing it.
NVIDIA shares climbed.
So did the value of his personal stake.
Trump bought up to $5 million in NVIDIA stock in February.
This week, he flew the NVIDIA CEO to Beijing on Air Force One.
On day one of the trip, his administration approved NVIDIA chip sales to 10 Chinese companies. 🧵

The Speaker of the House just defended members of Congress trading individual stocks. Wrong answer.
Members of Congress should not be trading shares in the companies they regulate and fund. Most Americans figured that out a long time ago.

If this report is true, this is an outrage.
The Judgment Fund pays court judgments against the United States.
It is not Donald Trump’s personal piggy bank. And that is exactly what he is turning it into.
Look at the scheme.

10,000 veterans recently lost their homes. 90,000 more are next. Trump says he can’t afford to save them. But he has no problem spending money for a White House ballroom.
You don’t get to salute the flag while throwing veterans into the street to pay for your chandeliers.

This is your reminder that Trump and Republicans are spending billions of your tax dollars on an unauthorized war in Iran and Stephen Miller’s ICE agenda while gutting Medicaid, slashing SNAP, and driving up your health care costs.

And it fits a pattern. This same White House is already using the Judgment Fund to pay off companies to kill American wind projects.
Congress needs to act. The power of the purse belongs to the Congress and the people. Not to one man and his friends.

Congress controls the purse, not the President. The Judgment Fund was never meant for political payoffs to the President’s friends.
You cannot sue yourself, settle with yourself, and then write yourself a check from the Treasury.
They meet in secret. They keep the names secret. And they hand out $1.7 billion in taxpayer money to January 6 rioters and entities tied to Trump.
It is illegal.
Trump sues his own IRS for $10 billion. Trump controls the IRS. The judge on the case is already asking whether the two sides are even on opposite sides. So Trump cuts a “settlement” with himself. He creates a five-person commission. He picks the members. He can fire them at will.

Sounds a lot like “let them eat cake.”
