“A crypto venture recently unveiled by Donald Trump and his new Middle East envoy, billionaire Steve Witkoff, has partnered w/a crypto platform that authorities and financial experts say has been used by criminals and Iran-backed militant groups Hamas and Hezbollah” www.reuters.com/technology/t...
Because. Of. Course!! Is anyone surprised?
Everything tRump does is a scam.
God he’s so stupid. Does he want Israel as an ally or not? (Or does it even matter. He’s teflon 🤮)
It would serve trump right to be found being financed by Iran after all he’s said about it. Not good for our country but ironic nonetheless.
Following on Trump’s incitement and support of the J6 domestic terrorism attack on the US Capitol, it is only logical that he would extend his support for terrorism to the international market in his second term. SUPPORTING TERRORISM is on-brand for Donald Trump.
Interesting… I don’t believe for one second that guy donated money to hurricane victims… How do we find out where that GoFundMe money actually went?
That’s exactly what I think! While people lost everything and they are living in tents in the cold… 😠
Wasn’t the entire Trump syndicate banned from having anything to do with any charities? He embezzled money form a charity he set up to benefit children with cancer to purchase an oversized portrait of himself.
I’m sure it’s in trump’s pocket. He’s a pig.
The cartel uses it to ship fentanyl
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaita sec..... that'd mean TRUMP'S not well read or very smart. Come on maaa'n. THAT CAN'T BE THE CASE. lololololol.
Is "Due Diligence" even a thing for Trump?
Think of all the value they created... Just lie back and think of it...
Absolutely disgusting. Sadly, not surprising though.
Is that his daughter’s father-in-law? But don’t worry - Texas wants to invest in it too!
But...but...eggs!
Burn down 248!years of Democracy so billionaires can force the Government to bail out BitCoin by backing it up with US Dollars. Presto Chango … hollow BitCoin now has tangible value.
" Criminals and Iran... " How rich, and considering how easy it is for Americans to use a wide paint brush to justify the means... terrorists or Isreali and American Zionists... Labels are for a can of beans not humans.
Dt is a known front man for illegal money laundering So all those government officials who don’t know or refuse to accept that fact are going to resign immediately & go back to the line in how to learn the word value Yet that seems to be no problem with the present GOP members of no shame.
Crypto can not & never has been able to buy groceries, clothing for your kids, a car to get to work or a medical bill. WTF is it seriously good for except playing pretend.
#ConvictedFelonTraitorTrump elected to the highest office of the US is doing crypto deals with terrorists including Iran who is no friend of America. If that isn't disqualifying for Trump to not be able to take the oath of office. I don't know what else would need to happen. #Jan6thInsurrection?
How is this not treason? Of course, the is more than one criminal in the federal government…
There
In normal times this would end his Presidency. We are fucked. This won't even be a story in NY Times.
I mean, of course
Sounds about right.
MY GOD
Yawn, who cares. Eggs.
Aside from organized crime and cartels, billionaires will certainly love the cryptocurrency. It's the perfect platform to hide all their ill gotten wealth. What's even great is they can freely transfer funds in and out of the US away from government monitoring.
🔥💙🔥
📌
Grifters gonna grift. Remember when a humble peanut farmer was forced to sell his farm when he became president? What happened to those days?
These dudes are going straight to hell.
First they kill Khashoggi now they’re just gonna siphon right off the fucking treasury
No shit
When this is over, we need to bring back corporal punishment for treason. Public Corporal punishment.
😡😡😡
In other words, Trump and his cohorts want a piece of the action?
How much more corruption do we need to see from Trump before he is actually held accountable? This is absolutely unreal!!!
What’s really terrible is the shit we are going to have to endure before he is gone. And he’ll seemingly NEVER be held accountable 😩
Is anybody really surprised? Crypto is there to enable criminals to launder their proceeds of crime.
Crypto is used by criminals. Trump is a criminal. You do the math.
I never liked math. Math is for suckers.
Nice. I hope you get wonderfully rich (in legal activities like trading).
1+1=Trump still a criminal problem is now we need factors because he is now inviting more criminality and criminals into the grifting.
We already knew he’d destroy the great economy he’s once again inherited from the Democratic administration who fixed up the trashed economy they’d inherited. He’s going for a speed record here.
Whatever happened to putting all your assets into a blind trust, so you can focus on your job in the White House, and there are no conflicts of interest. Is that not a thing anymore?
Ha!
Trump crime Inc wants to cut out middle men and get bribes directly from criminals.
Nooooo
That totally tracks!
Stupid is as stupid does. Too bad the American citizens are going to suffer.
All the best people.
Simon please let us know if there is any way we can protect our assets from what’s to come.
We need more emojis than like. This makes me snort with sustain.
That was supposed to say “disdain”
Of course!
Unsurprising madness.
A convicted criminal doing business with criminals? The hell you say!! 🤔 Wait till I tell America.
Crypto is the biggest grift since circus barkers started selling snake oil...no wonder Trump latched on to it.
politicalamericans.com/trump-voters...
tRump loves the uneducated and this is proof of it.
That is quite the scam Trump played
Psssst Bibi: Trump is Hamas!
Wtf?? He will do business with anyone no matter how shady. Maybe the more shady the better.
Criminals stick together. Everything about him reeks of crime, hate,and ignorance.
The destruction of America’s reputation has begun.
That’s not going to go over well with his buddy Bibi.
Fittingly, maybe say?
Sounds like people might have elected a new Terror FLUNKY! Isn't there a saying, "If you want to know a person's character, just look at the company they keep! " ?
Has anyone else noticed that this saying is being used as lot, now?? 🤔🤔
Shocker.
This may be the worst news yet but the masses will never hear about it. Keep trying to spread the word!
I am shocked!
Yet, not surprised
I'm shocked.
lmao, of course, why wouldn’t it.
He's the stinkiest piece of shit ever
The corruption is going to run super deep
Crooked people flock to crooked people.
He’s going to ptofiteer off both sides in WWIII.
Not surprised at all. Crooks are gonna crook.
... nice to see the Republicans are expanding from the Drug Cartels
Nothing matters anymore.
There is a law against a president doing such things But Trump is a criminal enterprise and he thinks he has been given immunity in all things that tis not the ruling
I don't look for any help from the Supreme Court they will allow him to do whatever he wants
Of course! don old wouldn't be interested if it was legit.
🤬🤬🤬
of course that's why donOLD'S CRIMINAL FAMILY HAS STARTED AN ILLEGAL BITCOIN COMPANY LLC CRIMES CONTINUE
bsky.app/profile/josh...
Last week tonight with John Oliver did an excellent piece on the felon-predator family crypto business. @lastweektonight1.bsky.social
Every body this dude knows is a Crook, Rapist, child molester, and so much more WTF
Of course, criminals! lol
Ah. Crypto. Biggest pyramid scheme ever.
The soon to be Traitor In Chief is part of what now?!?
This fucker is so sinister
Nothing these nihilistic narcissists do surprises me.
No surprise there, Trump’s people. As President, he should be disallowed to run his businesses.
It's human nature to seek someone or something to blame. The "Trumpublicans" have perfected this tactic, providing scapegoats for everything they claim is wrong—and those scapegoats are us.
"Surely this is just an unfortunate coincidence", said some republican somewhere.
Change the word crypto into “bullshit scam” and the story is right
This incoming administration is a straight up criminal enterprise, period. Hopefully our elected representatives in Congress have the fortitude to keep them in check.
Of course it does.✌️
Look at my shocked face 🥱
There’s a recent book , “Money” by David McWilliams, it’s a top read. The history of humanity through money, there is a section at the end ( a very telling one) about cryptocurrency, boyzo boy this is nothing more than a scam and a Ponzi project.
Crypto is a scam.
He never surprises us! 😬
By the end of Trump’s time absolutely every bad actor on planet earth will own pieces of the coward.
Don’t tell me anyone is surprised.
Although this is scary, it comes as no surprise!
I just want to congratulate MAGA for electing a bunch of bank robbers to oversee our treasury and financial policy.
Scam.
Betting you don't do to well at the Horse Track...
That's ok because eggs will be cheaper right? Right?
TALIBANGELICALS 🤷🏽♀️
So what's being done about it?
Nothing. Just crickets!
TrumpSHOULD NOT BE UNVEILING “VENTURES”. !!!!!!
But he's immune from everything. SCOTUS gave him a license to steal.
The Trump bros are getting into crypto. Fail.
If I had crypto I would be cashing out
What did YOU think crypto did?
Robbing the public coffers & grifting suckers. Laundering the proceeds. All in a day's work for con men, thieves, thugs, & kleptocrats.
I feel a “Pump And Dump” coming only this time it’ll be tax payers losing…
Anything goes w/Trump.
Drumpf always picks "the best people" /s )-; observer.com/1999/12/stev...
This is why they want to get rid of the FBI, the DOJ, the bank regulators etc. Exactly why.
Well, criminals join criminals I guess
Good nug from Chris Hayes on this- www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWAN...
Move along, nothing to see here.
Of course.
Had to explain to someone that a bitcoin is not actually a physical coin, but a bunch of code on a hardrive somewhere that one of the most criminally corrupt gang of billionaires want to fost off on the millions/billions (if you count other countries) as a real and viable means of value.
Of course it does. They are nit hiding it any more.
Now you know why USA Economy while crash on January 20th 2025. Don’t need to be a fortune teller to know that. WW3 is his next project. At 78yo, do you really think he cares about what happens when he dies ? He was pointing finger at Biden to make people look elsewhere then him. He is senile.
They’re not looking behind the dollar signs All money- crypto or otherwise-ain’t good money If you’re a greedy, amoral, wannabe dictator ready to lord it over US (again) where the crypto comes from and who’s using it for what DOES NOT MATTER!! But his minions want to cut our Social Security!
It’s that par for the course for the incoming administration? There’s nothing I can do about it so I don’t care anymore. Nobody gives a 💩 in congress, senate, Scotus, MSM. We are letting him bulldoze over everyone and everything this country. We will be lucky if we have clean running water by 2026.
Everything in conjunction with Trump should be assumed to have ties with the organized crime.
Allow me to shamelessly spam some self-promotion. Subscribe to my YouTube channel! Don't make me beg... I WILL beg... youtu.be/QMVpVvgOWtw?...
can't we stop them!? watching this criminal enterprise take over in real time is surreal. lah dee dah 🙈
But of course. When you slimed out of so many crimes, why not just go whole hog. Who will stop him? What can stop him?
Well I guess that's the easiest way for Trump to shake down Hamas and Hezbollah for "protection" money
Wow shockingAF. Not. 🌬️
Can we find a way to stop his inauguration on national security grounds?
I honestly believe that something should and must be done. We're taking all his 💩 💩 💩 too F-ing lightly. He's on a mission, and it's not a good one. It's all about getting rich, and enabling his friends to get even richer.
Right on brand for him, god how I hate where we are as a country
Fingers crossed that Trump launders money through this and looses it all to crypto scammers.
Yeah, but its OUR money.
They use blockchain to hide transaction trails. People better wake up!! This man is a frigging crook.
There is a lot of focus on how to deal with Trump in the White House. Putin's saboteur will be a million times harder to stop after he takes power. So, I am focused on stopping the traitor BEFORE he gets in office. You should be, too. Read and share the plan: www.dailykos.com/stories/2024...
imagine
Hey, do you remember when Hobby Lobby financed Isis and no one was prosecuted for it?
I mean, his anti-Semitism has been obvious for awhile
Trump Azerbaijan name-brand property had investors who funded Iran terrorist groups. It's illegal for him to be involved. Articles were written about it yet no one charged him with the crime. He does this stuff because he's never held accountable for anything. Even his 34 felonies may vanish.
Epic....
Of course.
Drumf will get his come up it’s one day his kids will lose everything. He’s destroyed our country
I feel the phrase "What could possibly go wrong??" is going to get worn out quite soon..
Yuck
Of course.
Criminals will always seek to cohort with criminals. It’s easier to fleece the masses as a team
Money follows money..
Everything this demon touches turns to nothing. Sounds likely another way for him and his crony friends to get richer at the expense of others... *SIGH*
This next presidency already seems WAY sketchier than his last.
Trump just wants to prove to his owners Putin Xi, and Poppin Fresh Kim, that he is a bigger crook than all of them combined!
Ahh, the good ol’ crook measuring contest.
Groucho, the secret word tonight is "crock" !
“Got my money on my mind and mind on my money”. US President; best gig in the world. Period.
Not surprising Donald supports the criminal world.
Banana Republic
I hope Europe cripples us with everything they’ve got. We are no longer good citizens of this planet.
No conflict of interest here I wonder how the cult will spin this one
The only rule of law is to make money.
I don’t give a shit about crypto…if those criminals want to dabble in it… All I want to know is, will it effect my REAL money that’s in my savings account?!? I admit I don’t understand how it works, but leave me & my cash alone!
That is what I’ve been wondering.
