Meet the 37 private donors for Trump’s ballroom—many of whom have ongoing governmental contracts or regulatory cases. It sure looks like their multi-million dollar donations are a way to curry favor.

Meet all 37 White House ballroom donors funding the $300 million build, including Silicon Valley tech giants, crypto bros and the Lutnicks | Fortune
The list, reviewed by Fortune, did not mention specific dollar amounts offered by each contributor.

Donald Trump's Social Security Admin is LYING to the American people. They said call wait times are down to minutes. Well, I investigated and found people are waiting HOURS for help — and that's if they get help at all. They need to stop the cover up and fix this giant failure.
usatoday.com
How long will you wait for Social Security help? Why it's anybody's guess.
The Social Security Administration is providing less information about caller wait times. Critics complain it's misleading the public.

The State Department halting the scheduling of new student visa appointments is the latest escalation in Trump's attack on higher ed. To him, the only useful non-Americans are those who invest in his crypto schemes and global resorts or gift him a “palace in the sky” aircraft.

Trump, you own this war! You had four years to fix it… you sat on your ass 2016-2020. And you embraced Putin… extorted Ukraine… divided alliances… lead an insurrection to divided America. You made us look weak. Putin acted because you invited predatory aggression.

Remember: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class.  You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.

Trump talkers are nominating Waltz as the fall-guy for their Signal screw-up, maybe because he's less anti-Ukraine than the rest. But it was Hegseth who breached security rules most dangerously, putting troops at risk. Was he drinking that day?

This is how our government has been corrupted:  1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office.  2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor.  3) Donors make a huge profit.  4) Repeat. For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.
