FOX BUSINESS: “My goodness. $5 BILLION. Eye-popping numbers… crypto-friendly legislation coming from the president who is in turn cashing in on crypto. A conflict of interest.” Even Fox sees how insanely corrupt Trump’s crypto grift is. (H/T @ab21.bsky.social )

Trump is such a malicious bastard. He fired immigration judges, leaving immigrants stuck in limbo, at constant risk of being kidnapped by ICE thugs. Now the Pentagon has authorized up to 600 military lawyers who have no experience with immigration law to serve as judges. This can't end well.
