    It's cute they call them "fact sheets", which this administration uses anything but facts.

    For example, in the one above, please let the record show Qatar will buy "AT LEAST" $1.2 trillion of American goods/services. At least! Could be eleventy kajillion!

      And because I can't help it, note that the "fact sheet" that talks about "AT LEAST $1.2 trillion!" outlined some of the key deals. These key deals are so big that after they outlined them, the of total $1,200,000,000,000 (1.2 trillion) now they only have $998,500,000,000 (998.5 billion) left to explain where the commitment is!

        Definitely seems like "creative accounting"

            The Trump Crime Family had its memecoin dinner last night held for the top 220 holders of his coin.

            The top 25 get White House VIP tours. The top holder is a Chinese crypto guy. Also among the top 25 is the shadowy 7 person company affiliated with TikTok.

            Thank you for your attention to this matter.

              “On the president’s dinner tonight, will the White House commit to making the list of the attendees public so people can see who’s paying for that kind of access to the president?” a reporter asked Leavitt at the White House press briefing on Thursday.

              “Well as you know, Garret, this question has been raised with the president. I have also addressed the dinner tonight; the president is attending it in his personal time, it is not a White House dinner, it is not taking place here at the White House,” Leavitt responded, ignoring the specific question about who was going to be at this dinner. “Certainly I can raise that question and try to get you an answer for it.”

              The dinner will be held at Trump’s private golf club in northern Virginia on Thursday evening for the top 220 holders of the president’s cryptocurrency—after an auction that brought in $147,586,796.41. The event is being promoted as the “most EXCLUSIVE INVITATION in the world,” according to an email about the event. The top 25 buyers will get an “ultra-exclusive private VIP reception” and “Special VIP Tour” with the president.

              All of the donors/guests of this event will be completely anonymous, leading to legitimate questions about corruption and foreign influence, like the one Leavitt refused to answer. Many of the buyers are foreign, as well, based in countries like Singapore and Hong Kong—directly contradicting the “America First” narrative that Trump has built his brand on.

              The top spender, holding close to $18.5 million of Trump’s coin, is called “SUN” and is held by a Seychelles-based crypto exchange known as HTX. Justin Sun, a Chinese national accused of fraud, known for spending $6.2 million on a banana and then eating it, is on HTX’s board and already has a financial relationship with Trump.

                The level of corruption is many orders of magnitude greater than all of the other presidents combined.

                Thank you for your attention to this matter.

                  Here's an outline for 20 minutes of all of the corruption so far. I haven't watched the whole thing but bet most of it is accurate. I've said before that Trump has watergate-level scandals (if today's news were applied in the 70s and 80s) on almost a weekly basis. The numbing to it is part of the strategy, I know.

                          Twitter and/or TNCR is screwy at the moment and tweets aren’t showing.

                          Here’s a screenshot

                            Trump is now selling tickets to the military parade he’s throwing for his birthday on June 14, a spectacle that will reportedly cost taxpayers $45 million.

                              Well, it is surprising that he did not mention that it was for his birthday also.

                              Somehow, I think that will be incorporated into the parade. LOL

                                I can't find where the ticket price is listed?

                                Honestly, I'm good with an awesome celebration for the 250th... although would prefer it be integrated into the normal July 4th hullabaloo.

                                    1.5B deal for Trump Crime Family was fast tacked at the highest levels of Vietnamese government to help with tariffs.

                                    By far and away the most corrupt president in history. Probably by 1000x.

                                      @jon-nyc said in And now, the corruption.:

                                      Feigning ignorance.

                                      Yup. In conversations like these, the guy getting questioned should be hooked up to a lie detector. LOL

                                      But, like Sec. Rubio talking about whether or not Putin is a war criminal, it is pretty obvious they have to say one thing while their mind is saying/thinking another.

                                      In this case, in his mind, he is going "that dinner is a stupid terrible idea, but I am afraid of President Trump and getting him mad at me so I had better pretend I know nothing about it."

                                          I thought this was a gaffe when he said this n response to the gulf states giving billions to Trump. But it seems to be his actual talking point.

                                          I think the most embarrassing thing about being a maga republican would be realizing how stupid your politicians think you are.
