Months after a fund tied to Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump put about $30 million into a nearly bankrupt spa company, the Trump administration awarded that company nearly $40 million in federal contracts to screen for Ebola.
The company made most of its money from airport spas and waxing salons.
It had never worked with Ebola.
It had never worked overseas.
Yet part of the money is for work in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where Ebola has killed more than 5,000 people this year. The company's CEO said, "I'm not sure we can do it."
This keeps happening. The same Trump-linked fund invested in a drone company, and five months later that company got an Air Force contract worth up to $90 million. A startup linked to Trump Jr. got a $620 million Pentagon loan after a top White House aide stepped in.
Their fund buys in, and federal money follows. Taxpayers foot the bill, and with Ebola, our safety is on the line too.
This is all totally corrupt.
Americans deserve answers under oath, and our conflict of interest and procurement laws must be enforced.

Трамп рассылал спонсорам письма, в которых предлагал им доступ к секретным отчётам нацбезопасности за деньги.
Сенатор Марк Келли тычёт в такое письмо носом директора ЦРУ, а тот говорит что ничего о них не знал 😁

🚨 IMPORTANTE
Exclusiva de Reuters muestra el verdadero móvil de la operación militar que llevó a la captura de Maduro
La investigación reveló que una semana antes de la operación militar del 3 de enero, el vicepresidente JD Vance abordó la futura venta del crudo venezolano con un operador de la firma Vitol y megadonante de su campaña, allanando el camino para que Vitol y Trafigura recibieran sin licitación el monopolio de comercialización petrolera que ya les ha generado cientos de millones de dólares.
Registros de vuelo ubican el avión oficial de JD Vance y el jet privado de John Addison (operador de Vitol) juntos el 27 de diciembre en Bozeman, Montana, rumbo al exclusivo Yellowstone Club.
Según una fuente enterada del encuentro, Vance preguntó qué tan rápido podrían vender el crudo venezolano si EEUE tomaba el control del suministro.
Aunque Addison negociaba gasolina en EEUU y carecía de experiencia técnica en contratos internacionales de crudo, había donado 300.000 dólares a Vance en 2022 y 7 millones de dólares a comités de Trump en 2024 (el mismo año en que Vitol pagó 50 millones en California por un caso de manipulación de precios donde Addison fue señalado).
Recomendado por Vance, Addison recibió el 5 de enero (dos días después de la operación) la llamada del secretario de Energía, Chris Wright.
La Casa Blanca omitió la licitación pública y el 9 de enero Vitol y Trafigura ya tenían las licencias.
Con más de 200 millones de barriles exportados en lo que va de 2026, expertos estiman que los operadores ganan entre 3 y 3,50 dólares por barril (un margen de 3,5 % a 4 %, superior al 1 %–3 % habitual de Vitol). Ambas firmas mantienen en secreto sus contratos con PDVSA, y Vitol confirmó tener además relación comercial con NABEP, la petrolera de Alejandro Betancourt
Este reporte se suma a la filtración del informe de KPMG publicada ayer por The New York Times, según la cual Vitol y Trafigura concentraron el 61 % de los 12.260 millones de dólares ingresados a la Cuenta de Custodia de Venezuela antes de que Washington transfiriera casi la totalidad de esos fondos de vuelta al Banco Central de Venezuela
Es decir:
Una semana antes del ataque militar, el gobierno de Trump ya estaba coordinando en un club privado de esquí cómo repartir la comercialización del petróleo venezolano a sus megadonantes de campaña sin licitación pública.

A soldier guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier issued a verbal reprimand to a group of advisers and staffers with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth following a Veterans Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery. As the group broke from taking photos, a loud laugh could be heard, and the soldier guarding the tomb shouted: “All visitors will maintain an atmosphere of silence and respect at all times.”

Confirmed --this really happened. They were not authorized to do it and the purpose is unclear.
Let this sink in: ICE agents reportedly blocked the emergency entrance of a Los Angeles hospital for TWO HOURS, forcing ambulances carrying people who needed emergency care to go elsewhere.
This isn’t law enforcement. This is a reckless abuse of power that put innocent people’s lives at risk.
An ambulance entrance is not a political battleground. A hospital emergency room is not an immigration checkpoint.
And federal agents do not get to hold an entire community’s access to emergency medical care hostage.
Imagine being in an ambulance, fighting for your life, only to be diverted because federal agents decided their operation mattered more than emergency access.
Where is the humanity? Where is the accountability? And where is the line that these agents are no longer allowed to cross?
You cannot claim to be protecting America while putting Americans’ lives in danger.
This isn’t making America great. It’s making America cruel. And anyone defending this should be ashamed.

🇺🇸 PETE HEGSETH FIRED HER. NOW SHE'S ABOUT TO TAKE A REPUBLICAN SEAT IN CONGRESS!
This story is almost too beautiful to be true.
Nancy Lacore, a three-star U.S. Navy vice admiral with 35 years of military service, is on the verge of a stunning Democratic victory in South Carolina's 1st Congressional District.
In August 2025, Trump's Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth removed Lacore from her position as commander of the Navy Reserve. No public explanation was given.
But instead of disappearing quietly, she entered politics.
And she chose one of the most difficult battlegrounds imaginable: a traditionally Republican district previously represented by MAGA firebrand Nancy Mace.
Now, with more than 98% of ballots counted, Lacore is leading Republican Jenny Costa Honeycutt by approximately 0.7 percentage points. A recount is expected because the margin is so narrow.
Think about the irony.
Trump's administration removed a decorated admiral from military leadership. Now that same admiral could help Democrats take control of the House of Representatives.
Hegseth took away her command. American voters may give her a seat in Congress.
Sometimes political revenge doesn't require a single angry word. Just a ballot.
