As Trump returns to power, his family business the Trump Organization, is ramping up international deals worth hundreds of millions. From $500M Middle East resorts to $30M crypto ventures, the Trump family is set to cash in again on what many call 'pay to play' foreign policy. #spookyconnections 🧵
😡😡😡

Ugh. 🤬
This will definitely lower the prices of gas and eggs, can’t wait for America to be great again 🙄
foreign govts is one thing. Keep that conman’s hands off OUR money. i have an awful feeling the govt will sit idly by while djt and musk and their ilk trade their worthless crypto certificates for our actual gold in Fort Knox.
put it this way. The Trump Organization provides no product of any value whatsoever, meaning every dime it collects is a #PayToPlay bribe, in broad daylight and in open violation of the Constitution's emollients clause. Emoluments clause.
Saudi Arabia: Trump Org is expanding with a Trump Tower in Jeddah and two projects in Riyadh. They also operate a golf course, with a second under construction. Jared Kushner’s firm secured $2B from the Saudi sovereign wealth fund.
Oman: A $500M Trump-branded luxury hotel and golf resort deal was recently signed. Critics warn that such deals in sensitive regions could influence U.S. foreign policy under another Trump term.
Mexico: Trump Org filed for a trademark for a potential Trump Tower while Trump campaigns on tariffs against Mexico. Such negotiations could give his business significant leverage.
Israel: The Trump Org is negotiating deal for luxury hotels in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, incl. a project on the former site of Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, negotiations are with local partners like Nitsba Group and Trump donors Charles Everhardt & Ed Dovner of Lockwood Development Partners.
UAE Crypto Venture: Eric Trump announced a $30M investment from Tron for the Trump-backed World Liberty Financial. Tron has ties to terrorist financing, raising red flags about ethics and regulatory risks.
UAE / Saudi Arabia: The Trump Org is expanding its presence in Dubai through a partnership with Dar Global, the international arm of Saudi Arabia's Dar Al Arkan. Their latest venture, Trump Tower Dubai valued at over $545 million, is a luxury development set to launch in 2025.
They're turning our entire system into a criminal enterprise. Perhaps this is the impetus for the new system we need to survive the next decades.
This is my hope... Folks often say re:climate, it has to get bad before people will act. Maybe this logic applies to democracy.

That IS my hope with respect to democracy (apparently we need a lesson in how stupid it is to choose anything else) - but frankly, that will not/does not work for climate. It does illustrate to me that people are clueless about climate, though. My sense we need to explain it better is confirmed :(
Yeah, in both cases... Once you've lost control, it's very hard to get it back. Waiting till its very bad is very brutal way to go... And likely doesn't work. I think we explained it a lot... Something else is needed. Pressure, numbers of people, consensus reality gatekeeper control...?
Google Trump Heights. It used to be called the Golan Heights, but he made a deal with Netanyahu to build high dollar condos there. Bombed out rubble is easier to bulldoze than entire blocks of buildings.
"To achieve success in the elections, Donald Trump relied on certain forces to which he has corresponding obligations. And as a responsible person, he will be obliged to fulfill them." - Nikolai Patrushev, part of the Russian president's inner circle and former Secretary of the Security Council
Buy Bullets.
How can the MAGA voters be OK wit Trump's stupendous grift? Are their any rumblings about this inMAGA world?
Proof that America has become a lawless nation without morals, ethics or accountability. The dictatorship is coming.
Master grifter
Traitor tRUMP ran for office to avoid prison and to make as much money as possible. Mission accomplished.
Would this be considered an impeachment offense?
People across the world are rebelling against their leadership due to them bowing to Trump and it is my hope they continue to do so. The world cannot afford to have an American Hitler at the helm when we are the most powerful country in the world.
He shouldn’t have any trouble paying his gambling losses then
Of course they are. “Grift” The Sequel.
Trump is only into politics for his increase in family wealth. He doesn't give a darn about right or wrong, fairness or foul play. Its all about $$$$ for Trump. He's acting President, a role to play for unlimited wealth.
just to be purrrrrrfectly clear: f%%# that sh*t.
So he wants the Fed backed by bitcoin instead of gold and he's also making crypto deals. Is this not illegal!?
