Thanks to stockholdings in Big Oil, Trump has raked in up to $15.5M from his fossil fuel investments since January. Meanwhile, the American people have spent $71.5B more on gas since Trump's Iran War began. When Trump said, "I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation," he wasn't lying.

Since Trump's inauguration, defense tech companies linked to his sons have generated over $3.2B in direct government business and $3.1B in future contract options. Call this what it is: corruption.
