#FollowTheMoney Trump-Argentina corruption version

1. The Trump administration quietly DOUBLED the bailout of Argentina from $20 BILLION to $40 BILLION

Here is what is really happening

UPDATE: Taxpayer bailout of Argentina may grow to $40 billion

The bailout, which Trump admitted is of little benefit to Americans, keeps getting bigger.

They learned with Trump I that they didn’t need to be bound by doing anything since if they lied that they *had* done it, it had to same effect (cf 2016 T votes vs 2024 votes).

Democrats should be drawing up legislation right now, this very minute, to bar Trump from helping himself to $230 million in taxpayer funds from DOJ. Challenge Republicans to hold a vote on it. Push this so hard in the media that every GOP Senate and House candidate is pressed to comment on it.

I hope he does produce a China-built Trumphone. It’ll be an easy signal that the owner is a raving idiot so I can cross the street to avoid contact with them.

“Huynh said the agent pulling a gun was intended to “silence” rapid responders and others trying to alert community members to the presence of federal agents, but he said it didn’t deter him and his staff from continuing to do so.”

Don’t let them silence us. Thank uou Rep Huynh! #NoFascistUSA

Well, the goddam commission should just let the debris smolder unchanged for the next 3-1/2 years. A destroyed White House is an apt metaphor for the lunatics who've taken it over. #NoFascistUSA

It’s even worse when you see his end vision

Tweet from SherilynIfill reading “A ballroom that dwarfs the core of the WH itself. The re-making of a nation’s identity.” This accompanies a tweet from michaelstewartallan reading “Look how ugly this is. The ballroom is 90,000 square feet. The whole White House is only 55,000. Everything he touches turns to shit.”

A second screenshot from Forbes is headlined “Trump’s $200 Million Ballroom Addition Is Larger Than The Existing White House: What We Know (With Photos).

We’ve received a lot of questions about Trump’s demolition of the White House East Wing.

Here’s how the process is supposed to work:

Trump earlier today when asked about the construction of the new ballroom:

“It won’t interfere with current building. It won’t be. It’ll be near it but not touching it — and pays total respect to the existing building, which I’m the biggest fan of.”

This is how it was left now overnight ⬇️

Because it graphically depicts what he has done/is doing/will continue to do to our country. He is a despotic madman intent on never leaving his “palace” and he must be stopped. #NoFascistUSA

Vance, excusing them, but not, you know, actual kids, “The reality is that kids do stupid things, especially young boys.” (Note he was also able to be sexist in that short sentence.)

🚨 NEWS: Colombian President Gustavo Petro accuses U.S. government officials of murder and violating Colombia’s sovereignty and says the Trump-ordered strike of a boat in the Caribbean killed a fisherman named Alejandro Carranza.

Screenshot of a post on X from Colombian President Gustavo Petro’s verified account. The post reads: “US government officials have committed a murder and violated our sovereignty in territorial waters. Fisherman Alejandro Carranza had no ties to the drug trade and his daily activity was fishing. The Colombian boat was adrift and had its distress signal up due to an engine failure. We await explanations from the US government.”
