On Birthright Citizenship

Here's more from Chief Justice John Roberts.

He said there was "scant evidence" to support the Trump administration's "dramatically revisionist view" of how to interpret the citizenship clause of the U.S. Constitution's 14th Amendment.

"If Congress intended to limit American citizenship to the children of those domiciled in the United States, nothing in the succinct language of the Citizenship Clause conveyed that design," Roberts wrote.

"Citizenship, then and now, was the right to have rights—to freely participate in our political community. The Framers of the Fourteenth Amendment extended that promise to 'every free-born person in this land,'" Roberts wrote. "We keep that promise today."

Trump earned over $1 billion on cryptocurrency and coin ventures last year

President Donald Trump reported more than $1.4 billion in income from crypto, digital tokens and related partnerships in 2025, appearing to have substantially increased his income after reentering the White House last year.

The income was reported in 927 pages of financial disclosure forms, which the White House released Tuesday.

In his 2024 financial disclosure, filed a year ago, Trump reported earning more than $600 million in total income.
In addition to the income from coin sales and other ventures, the president reported receiving $86.5 million from settlements in five separate lawsuits against Twitter, ABC, CBS, YouTube and Meta.

The 2025 disclosure includes $635 million in royalties from a license agreement with Celebration Coins; at least $525 million in proceeds from token sales by World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency project founded by Trump and his sons; $65 million in proceeds from World Liberty Financial’s equity sale; and $196 million in net proceeds from a stablecoin transaction.

Ya I've been keeping up on Trump's "Great American State Fair". Attendance is anemic. But Freedom 250 claims that there have been 120,000 attendees. A HUGE LIE.

Lots of huge lies. Trump claimed 45,000 attended his opening speech. It looked more like 2-3 thousand and many people walked away.
 
Trump makes billions on grift since starting his second term

NEW YORK (AP) — President Donald Trump took in nearly $1.2 billion from his crypto businesses last year, a federal filing released Tuesday shows, locking in profits while his investors were socked with losses.

Trump got more than $500 million from his World Liberty Financial business selling new crypto products, including “governance tokens,” according to the required annual disclosure report with the Office of Government Ethics. It also showed another crypto business, CIC Digital LLC, took in more than $600 million from sales of souvenir-type “meme” coins stamped with his face.

Both the tokens and the coins have plunged in value since the sales.

The regulators are still worried. Before Trump’s World Liberty began selling “governance tokens,” they issued warnings about this new kind of crypto asset, saying that unlike stocks, the tokens offer no ownership stake in the issuing company, just voting power on certain corporate policies, and are difficult to value.

Meanwhile, investors have seen the value of their Trump-tied holdings drop significantly.

The price of World Liberty tokens has fallen 80% since they started trading in September. And the Trump souvenir coins that spiked to more than $74 in the days after launching in January 2025 now sell for $1.68.

The 927-page disclosure form paints a stark, if incomplete picture of the massive growth of the president’s wealth since taking office last January through a web of business interests — many of which have benefited from the policy moves of Trump’s own government. Trump has insisted that his sons direct his finances but the arrangement rejects the conflict of interest protections that his recent predecessors in office had instituted.

Forbes estimates Trump’s net worth at $6 billion, up from $2.3 billion in 2024.

The White House says Trump only acts in the public interest

“Neither the President nor his family has ever engaged — or will ever engage — in conflicts of interest,” spokeswoman Anna Kelly said. “All actions by President Trump and his administration are taken in the best interest of the American people.”

So the 747 Trump said Qatar gave to him out of nowhere is that he actually asked Qatar for it. It cost us another billion to upgrade it to AF1 standards and after Trump leaves office he plans to put the plane in his presidential library.

We are now Trump's piggy bank.

Of course that would be illegal. But illegal doesn't stop Trump the lawlwpess and the DOJ is his personal lawyer.

Who would have standing to sue?

For anyone who wants to know how low trump will really go, I suggest you watch the first half hour of Chris Hayes show on MSNow from tonight. It's quite enlightening.
