Eric Trump is an investor and Chief Strategic Adviser at Foundation Future Industries. Appointed in March. His father's administration awarded the contract. Maria Bartiromo threw them a parade and asked zero questions about the obvious conflict of interest.

THE DISMISSAL LOG: Coinbase, Binance, Ripple, Gemini, Kraken, Cumberland DRW, Dragonchain — all dismissed in 2025. Every company had donated to Trump's inauguration or affiliated PACs. Monetary penalties: $142M in 2025 vs. billions the year before. This is not a coincidence.

THE CONFIRMED FACTS: Since mid-March 2026, Iran's IRGC charges ships up to $2M to transit Hormuz in Bitcoin and USDT. Formalized as law March 30-31. Confirmed by Bloomberg, FT, TRM Labs, Chainalysis. Revenue estimate: $600-800M/month. This is operating.

THE SETUP: Corey Caplan co-founded Dolomite. Corey Caplan is also World Liberty Financial's CTO. WLFI deposited 5 billion of its own tokens into Dolomite and borrowed $75M. That's borrowing from a bank run by your own CFO, secured by company stock. The FTX comparison is not an exaggeration.

The timeline: → Mar 23: $500M bet, 15 min before Trump paused Iran strikes. Oil -10%. → Apr 7: $950M bet, hours before ceasefire. Oil -15%. → Apr 17: $760M bet, 20 min before Hormuz opens. Oil -10%+. Total: $2.21 billion.

Kristi Noem told Congress the $70M Boeing 737 Max 8 was for deportations. It has a queen-size bed, private showers, a full kitchen, a cocktail bar, and four flat-screen TVs. It seats 17. A standard 737 seats 178. Not one deportee has been removed on it.

Her scheme: a fake account called the 'Reserve Sewer Capital Development Account.' 179 forged invoices. $53.7M moved undetected for 22 years. Audits passed -- her auditor, Clifton Gunderson, also held city contracts. The oversight was theater. #AntiCorruption #LocalCorruption

Oh

Folks, Trump did his usual Friday stock market boosting lie and made a few bil on the fools that believed him, yet again:

Dec 2016: Chilean billionaire Andrónico Luksic buys a $5.5M DC mansion through a shell company — 12 days after Trump wins. He rents it to Kushner and Ivanka Trump at $15,000/month. Real estate experts called it a terrible investment. They weren’t evaluating the full transaction.

April 16, 2026: Swedish General Michael Claesson tells The Times Russia could launch a Baltic naval op tomorrow. "It doesn't have to be large. Just argue a point and wait to see what happens politically." War games have rehearsed Russian landings on Gotland, Bornholm, and Estonia's islands.

Milei appointed his personal lawyer, Diego Spagnuolo, to run ANDIS — Argentina's national disability agency managing medicine for ~1M disabled Argentines. Leaked audio alleges pharmaceutical kickbacks were routed to Presidential Chief-of-Staff Karina Milei — his own sister.

He posted himself as Jesus Christ on Truth Social. On Orthodox Easter. Less than an hour after attacking the first American pope. Then deleted it and said he thought it was a doctor. A man this self-absorbed has no business running this country. dekleptocracy.substack.com #AntiCorruption

They pardoned a money launderer. His sons became business partners with that mans family office. 13 days between the deal and the pardon. 802 million in crypto income. 17-fold increase. The pardon power is being monetized. dekleptocracy.substack.com #AntiCorruption #FollowTheMoney

Amazingly, this isn’t The Onion but a real person @johnfund.

Netanyahu - the first sitting Israeli PM charged with crimes - faces bribery, fraud, and breach of trust dating to 2019. Trial started in 2020. Six years. No verdict. No end date.

Vance told Hungary five days ago: We've got to get Viktor Orban reelected. Orban lost by 16 points. The visit reportedly cost Hungary $1.2B in forced purchases. Trump called in by speakerphone -- the first attempt went to voicemail.

JD Vance just redefined soft power. He flew to Budapest to campaign for Orban, trailing by double digits. Betting odds fell after Vance arrived. Tens of thousands chanted Russians go home. Thread below. cc @chadbourn.bsky.social #AntiCorruption #FollowTheMoney

❗️Donald Trump stated that he intends to seriously reconsider the issue of defending NATO countries from Russia. "I'm very disappointed with NATO. We spent trillions of dollars on NATO to help them defend themselves from Russia. And It's going to be very seriously reconsidered."

A bad day for Putin and Trump is a glorious day for democracies around the world.

"After the third year of being there [in Russian captivity], we had already lost hope that we would return home and live a normal life," say Ukrainian Defenders who returned from Russian captivity yesterday. 📹: alogvinenko27 / Threads

Sun is not your hero. He invested $175M in Trump's crypto ecosystem, was named a WLFI advisor, attended a White House gala as a top TRUMP memecoin holder. His SEC fraud case was dropped after investing in WLFI. He's a witness, not a whistleblower.

Peter Thiel co-founded Palantir. He donated $15 million to JD Vance Senate race — the largest single-candidate donation in history. He introduced Vance to Trump. Bloomberg reports 12+ Thiel allies now hold admin positions.

*THIS* is a perfect example how the Democrats should fighting back right now. They should be taking notes

Three categories of complicity: True believers who built authoritarian infrastructure. Careerists like Musk who destroyed lives to play government. And the enablers -- the hardest problem.

Hungary's FM Szijjarto briefed Lavrov from inside EU Council meetings in real time while Hungary plotted to block Ukraine's accession. Lavrov's response: direct blackmailing is the best option.

Trump signed the GENIUS Act in July 2025 -- the first federal stablecoin law. His crypto company World Liberty Financial already had USD1 ready. Two weeks before the Senate voted, WLF was positioned. The president front-ran his own legislation. #Kleptocracy

$TRUMP briefly hit $2.73 this week. 813,000 wallets have lost roughly $2 billion. Fight Fight Fight LLC retains 80% of the supply. The token generated $427 million in fees — one of the largest liquidity-extraction events in crypto history.
