3. Retributory targeting of the economy and employment in Trump voting or swing areas, which is what you save to roll out if there’s actually attempted military action by the US. The goal here is just to wreak as much havoc as possible, so go wild.

If I was advising the EU—and I 100% should be—my advice is that you prepare three sets of sanction packages:
1. Deliberate targeting of personal/corporate assets of Trump, Musk, Andressen, Sacks, etc like they’re Russian oligarchs by doing stuff like seizing Gigafactory Berlin. This gets used first.

Trump continues to make billions from foreign govts and oligarchs with new deals happening around the world every month from people who want a lot from the US government and are getting what they want. And Trump is just getting started obscenely profiting off the presidency.

GOLDMAN: “.. Consensus estimates show hyperscaler YoY capex growth slowing from 75% in 3Q to 54% in 4Q and to 24% by the end of 2026. We expect AI spending will exceed consensus estimates again this quarter, but agree that a deceleration in the pace of AI capex growth is likely in 2026.”

Follow. 👏 The. 👏 Money. 👏

Yesterday, the President summoned oil titans to the White House to discuss selling off Venezuelan oil. The WH says Trump is already selling the oil, using foreign accounts, and would do so “indefinitely”—authorities he does not have. So, we are investigating!
