Secret documents reveal donors behind $330 million for Trump’s ballroom
The records offer a panoramic view of a fundraising campaign that is extraordinary for its size and opacity.

Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a resident of [LOCATION] I’m calling to ask that [SENATORS NAME] push to defund ICE funding and supporting legislation that claws back the $75 billion ICE slush fund created by H.R. 1 last year.
This lawless agency is violently attacking and killing immigrants and citizens around the country and must be defunded and dissolved for good. People are getting assaulted in our streets, kidnapped, an murdered in front of us.
Our friends and Neighbors are being violently attacked. It’s a total violation of our constitutional rights and completely evil. I encourage Congress to use their power to defund and disband ICE. Immediately
Thank you for your time and consideration.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:yvvofwz4m2rdrwa73fn64csu/bafkreibqmtxkjsiykgtgs3ofurfqupl5mrdyj73xcu4hd7dgnp6p3dku3y)
