I just published a new investigation into Donald Trump’s taxes. A teaser: The president has stiffed a lot of people over the years. His next, and largest, victim will probably be the U.S. government. Full story below. forbes.com/sites/danalexande…

1/ I'll explain exactly how this happened because I'm the person at Forbes who calculates these numbers. This is going to take some unraveling, but here's a spoiler: The president's answer here is nonsense.

I have a history PhD from Oxford and try to support all of my historical claims with strong evidence, particularly when regarding the president of the United States. But based on a comprehensive review of 250 years of American history, it is simply irrefutable that Donald Trump is by far the most corrupt president in U.S. history when it comes to using the office to enrich himself and his family. Here are the facts, and why there isn’t even a close second. Trump’s own federal financial disclosure reported more than $1.4 billion in 2025 income from family crypto ventures, including about $635 million from his meme coin and nearly $800 million from World Liberty Financial. Reuters separately estimated that the family added at least $2.3 billion to its fortune from crypto ventures after Trump returned to the White House. The clearest example of how Trump used the office came in May 2025. The 220 biggest holders of his meme coin were invited to dine with the sitting president at his private golf club. The coin jumped more than 60 percent when the dinner was announced. To get a seat at the table, you had to buy and hold a product that made the president money. Trump turned access to the presidency into a sales pitch. The foreign dealings raise an even more serious question. Four days before Trump took office, an investment vehicle backed by a UAE national security official agreed to pay $500 million for nearly half of World Liberty Financial. The Wall Street Journal reported that $187 million of the initial payment was directed to Trump family entities. Trump is clearly not the first United States president to be guilty of corruption, but the size and scale of his malfeasance put him in a league of his own. Under Ulysses S. Grant, whiskey distillers and federal officials pocketed money by cheating the government out of liquor taxes. Under Warren Harding, Interior Secretary Albert Fall took bribes in exchange for leasing federal oil reserves. Richard Nixon had a personal tax scandal, but his defining abuse of presidential power was the Watergate cover-up, an effort to protect his hold on office. LBJ’s political connections helped turn a small Texas radio station into a family broadcasting empire. By September 2025, less than eight months into Donald Trump’s second term, he and his family were roughly $5 billion richer than they had been around the 2024 election, according to Forbes. In comparison, a reasonable estimate is that all 44 other U.S. presidents combined added about $250 million to their wealth while in office, adjusted to today’s dollars. That puts the Trump family’s gain at about 20 times the estimated combined total for all other presidents over the course of two and half centuries. The election results were, at least in part, a clear repudiation of this staggering and historically unprecedented corruption. Congress now has a mandate to investigate, follow the money, pursue the recovery of all ill-gotten gains, and enact enforceable safeguards so that no president can ever again use the White House as a vehicle for personal enrichment.

9 yrs ago the world learned I was unjustly fired for posting this WH pool photo of me flipping off DJT. I went on to unseat a two-term MAGA, & was re-elected 4 yrs later. Now I’m running for County Chair to stop data center sprawl! Support our race here: bit.ly/4k2xwW3

Alright so, we had 2 years under biden with a democrat majority and we've now had 2 years of republican majority under trump. Lets take a look at what each parties legislative accomplisments were. Under Dems American Rescue Plan Act: $1.9T package with direct payments, vaccine funding, and an expanded child tax credit which cut child poverty in half. CHIPS and Science Act: semiconductor manufacturing, R&D, and supply chain investment. Inflation Reduction Act: largest federal clean energy investment, drug price negotiations, ACA subsidies and capped insulin at $35 a month. PACT Act: expanded health care and disability benefits for veterans. Under republicans One Big Beautiful Bill: extended 2017 tax cuts and added new deductions. Kicks millions off of their healthcare, snap, squeezes the poorest families in America. GENIUS Act: first federal regulatory framework for payment stablecoins. Epstein Files Transparency Act: required DOJ to release Epstein related records. DOJ is currently breaking this law by not releasing the full records. Laken Riley Act: mandatory detention for certain noncitizens accused of theft, burglary, assault on law enforcement, or crimes causing death/serious injury. Secure America Act: $70B for ICE and Border Patrol through FY2029.

THE LABOR DEPARTMENT JUST DROPPED NEW WAGE DATA AND IT'S BRUTAL. Corporate profits up 47% since 2020. Worker wages up 12% in the same period. Meanwhile groceries up 35%, rent up 40%, utilities up 28%. Your paycheck grew 12%. Your bills grew 35%. The math is simple: you're getting poorer every year even when you get a raise. You can't budget your way out of this. The system is designed so your income can never catch up to your expenses. That's not an accident. That's policy.

Since 2018, citizen-led initiatives in the state of Missouri have protected rights to reproductive healthcare, raised minimum wage, legalized marijuana and expanded Medicaid. In August, Missourians decisively rejected both of Governor Kehoe’s key campaign initiatives, with Amendment 4 losing 80-20 and 5 losing 83-16. Governor Kehoe and his cabinet are also now in the process of implementing policy designed to bleed dry and eventually eradicate our public schools — particularly those in low-income and rural areas where schools are the lifeblood of their communities. And when Governor Kehoe and his party haven’t gotten their way? They have tried to overturn these initiatives, gerrymander our districts, and introduce new measures aimed at ensuring any future votes are virtually impossible to pass. The governor calling this amendment “an insult to Missouri voters” is the same one working to ensure your next vote is worth less than the one before. Vote YES on 6. And NO on 3, 7, 8 and A.

What if a federal agent walks into a polling place and demands the ballots? Watch this civics video. States run elections. No federal agency can seize ballots without a lawful court-issued warrant. Even then, it would be extraordinary federal interference in how states run their elections.

Billionaires mentioned in the Epstein files have donated $705 million to the Republican Party. Just in case you were wondering what it costs to cover up a criminal pedophile ring.

Looking more and more like he was a US intelligence asset trying to take over Brazil for Trump's corrupt oligarchs... Brazil dodged a bullet seeing how he's moving after the election.
🇧🇷🇺🇸 Flávio Bolsonaro's escape from Brazil is starting to sound like an INTELLIGENCE OPERATION. And apparently, it involved a former MOSSAD operative, Javier Milei's government and someone very close to Donald Trump. According to CNN Brasil, Bolsonaro fled across the Argentine border with his wife and two daughters in TWO separate vans, accompanied by a former Israeli intelligence operative who is now a U.S. citizen. From Argentina, the family boarded a private Gulfstream jet, stopped in Ecuador and landed in Miami on October 28. And here's where things get particularly interesting. Trump adviser Jason Miller reportedly helped arrange the aircraft, while officials connected to Milei assisted the operation. All this happened just days after Bolsonaro lost Brazil's presidential election and was ordered to surrender his passports. A defeated presidential candidate, a former spy, two foreign governments and a private jet. That's a rather extraordinary amount of international assistance for someone simply trying to leave the country. Source: CNN / Writer: Oliver

Mike Rogers’ wife has some explaining to do. Kristi Rogers runs PRISM, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that charges corporations up to $100,000 to join, plus $50,000 a year, in exchange for access to federal policymakers. Its corporate members can influence the organization’s policy recommendations while gaining access to the officials making decisions that affect their businesses. Then there’s the October 14 gas-card giveaway. She handed out $10 gas cards to Detroit drivers while promoting her husband’s campaign promise to suspend gas taxes. Who paid? PRISM’s 501(c)(3) status raises a question: Is it operating within the restrictions on lobbying and political campaign activity that apply to charitable nonprofits? We have a candidate’s wife selling corporations access to government officials while actively campaigning for her husband. Nothing to see here, let’s blame Alaska.
