"A list obtained by The Washington Post reveals all the major donors to President Donald Trump’s White House ballroom project.... Tech giants Nvidia and Apple each committed $25 million....Absent from the list is Trump himself, who has said that he is helping to pay for the project."

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.

My name is not the reason we're paying $5/gallon for gas. My name is not the reason you can't afford your groceries. My name is not the reason you can't afford your mortgage or rent. My name is not the reason you can't see a doctor. Their policies are the reason.

Trump’s Billion Dollar Russian Payday Only Cashes If Ukraine Surrenders. Now You Know Why He’s Threatening Kyiv. Putin dangled $80 billion in business to Witkoff and Kushner. The price was Ukraine’s surrender. Trump is trying to deliver it. Iside the greatest betrayal in America’s history.

🚨Holy crap! Ken Paxton partied on New Year’s Eve 2024 in Dubai with his girlfriend and two U.S. fugitives (Anosh Ahmed and Sameer Suhail) charged in healthcare fraud/embezzlement schemes. Ahmed, a major donor, gave about $190,000 to Paxton’s campaign — including after his indictment.

Paxton was partying in Dubai with a donor who was fleeing the US on health care fraud (like the real kind of fraud, involving millions embezzled from a hospital, not the stuff JD Vance says he is investigating).

As fireworks exploded over the Burj Khalifa skyscraper to welcome 2025, Paxton and his girlfriend Tracy Duhon watched from a luxury high-rise balcony full of people, according to a video of the gathering reviewed by The Wall Street Journal, details of which were contained in court filings and confirmed by people familiar with the matter.

Among those at the event with Texas’ top law-enforcement official were two Americans who had been indicted months before on federal healthcare-fraud charges but failed to return to the U.S., Anosh Ahmed and Sameer Suhail, according to the court records and people familiar with the matter. Ahmed, a healthcare executive, had donated $190,000 to Paxton, campaign finance records show, including $25,000 days after he was indicted.

My latest: "Now that Donald Trump feels comfy staging a pre-election law enforcement raid against someone who hates him, let’s schedule a quick search of Melania’s residences for records pertaining to her curious immigration to the United States, shall we?" Read, share, subscribe. It's all free.

Let’s check Melania’s immigration history, too
