Inside Trump’s insidious plan to get away with his 'historic level of corruption'

A startling exposé revealed that President Donald Trump helped his sons score a billion-dollar mining deal in Kazakhstan.The bombshell New York Times report Sunday revealed shocking details of self-dealing, ethical violations and major profits using the power of the United States presidency."It was not only Trump and [Howard] Lutnick who saw an opportunity," the report said about the mining deal for the metal tungsten. "Their sons were soon doing business with partners in a deal that their fathers were negotiating, continuing a pattern of self-enrichment in the second Trump administration that has few precedents in American history." "Within weeks of St. Regis negotiations, investors with a firm called Dominari Securities, which is housed at Trump Tower in New York and partly owned by the president's two eldest sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, joined with other partners to take a 20 percent stake in a corporate entity related to the Kazakhstan project," the report continued. "Right in front of our faces. Zero attempt to hide or conceal it. Absolute, total self-enrichment at a magnitude we have never really seen. And every week brings a new story just like it. They're getting richer at every opportunity," wrote Isaac Saul, the founder of Tangle News, about the report. Reporter Ryan Grim, who runs Drop Site News, commented, "The level of criminality here is breathtaking. I don’t wanna hear MAGA claim they love this country and are deep patriots when Trump is robbing the country blind. You don’t do this to a country you love." Co-host of "The Blocked and Reported" podcast, Jesse Singal, posted an excerpt and commented, "Really helpless feeling about where we're at. There's a historic (by American standards) level of corruption and looting going on right now and the party that could stop it is fine with it. And since it is cult of personality his supporters cheer it!"He added, "Trump's an all-time evil genius, in his way. He exploited a legitimate sentiment held by many Americans, which is that the richest inhabit a corrupt world, hidden from view, in which different rules apply, and won office despite being the very embodiment of that problem. The stuff that has gone on since his reelection is way more important than most of the stuff that gets attention on social media."The "problem," he said, is that the average person can't do much other than say it's "bad." New York Times columnist David French lamented, "And to add to the injustice and absurdity, Trump is likely to pardon everyone involved, including himself. And we've barely even begun to talk about the national security implications of Trump's international graft."History professor Salim Yaqub noted that one way to help would be "restoring the ability of one or both houses of Congress to investigate and hold hearings[.]"

Trump's 'not on this planet' lie ensures historic blowout in competitive state: CNN expert

Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA) appears to be “leaning into” President Donald Trump’s false election fraud claims in his bid for re-election, but according to CNN data guru Harry Enten, the Trump-endorsed candidate’s midterm strategy is all but certain to hand Democrats a decisive victory.“If Mike Collins thinks that Donald Trump is going to carry him over the finish line, then I have a brave new world that he needs to face because that is a belief that’s just, simply put, not on this planet,” Enten said on Monday. “It is in some galaxy far, far away.”Despite no evidence supporting Trump’s claims of there being systemic election fraud in the 2020 election, a staggering 63% of Republicans believe that the 2020 election was, in fact, “stolen,” up three percentage points from 2021. And, while leaning into Trump’s false claims may bode well among GOP voters, such claims were “a losing message,” Enten cautioned, in a general election.According to a recent Reuters/IPSOS poll, 64% of Georgia voters overall believe that the 2020 election was “not stolen,” an increase of five percentage points from 2021. Furthermore, Trump’s net favorability among Georgia voters, according to polling data aggregated by Enten, was at -14.“Donald Trump deeply unpopular in Georgia,” Enten said. “Mike Collins should be running from Donald Trump – instead, he’s leaning into a belief that, simply put, has no evidence to back it up about the 2020 election.”Trump’s false claims of election fraud still remain supported by a majority of Republican voters, however, something Enten was taken aback by.“They just believe this garbage!” Enten said. “Most Republicans, despite all the evidence to the contrary, believe that the 2020 election was, in fact, stolen.”CNN’s John Berman asked Enten whether leaning into false claims of election fraud was a “winning message” for a general election in Georgia.“No!” Enten shouted. “This is the whole problem, which is the Republican Party is in one camp all the way over here on the right, and the rest of the American public is in the ‘this-is-the-real-world-we’re-dealing-with camp.’”Enten: "There's no proof, but now 63% of Republicans believe that the 2020 election was stolen" pic.twitter.com/NihGw3N4Lw— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) June 29, 2026

Trump 'on the brink' of receiving historic shellacking from Supreme Court: law professor

The Supreme Court is “on the brink” of ruling on major cases regarding President Donald Trump’s “most audacious gambits,” Bloomberg reported Sunday, and one law professor is predicting the outcome may bode poorly for the commander in chief.The Supreme Court is set to rule this week on two cases that will determine whether Trump can eliminate birthright citizenship and remove leaders from independent federal agencies — as he attempted with Federal Reserve Gov. Lisa Cook.William Baude, a professor at the University of Chicago’s Constitutional Law Institute, predicted things wouldn’t go in Trump’s favor, in spite of the Supreme Court’s conservative agenda and recent history of helping expand the president’s executive power.“It seems likely the court is going to rule against the administration,” Baude said, according to Bloomberg.Despite birthright citizenship being enshrined in the Constitution in 1868 with the 14th Amendment, Trump has long sought to eliminate the constitutional right, and has lashed out at “dumb judges and justices” for their critiques of his efforts. The president has also falsely claimed that the United States is the “only country in the world” to have such a right.While the Supreme Court has done much to expand Trump’s executive power, including with a recent ruling that allowed his administration to expedite the deportation of as many of 1.3 million migrants, justices have also refuted the president on several occasions, perhaps most notably by ruling that his so-called reciprocal tariffs were implemented unlawfully.
