Trump Org’s income in the first half of 2024 was $51 million. In the first half of 2025 it rose to $864 million. A massive percentage came from foreigners. It should be the biggest scandal in the history of American politics. But few even care. https://t.co/LOycrcd3Ha

The U.S. president’s family raked in more than $800 million from sales of crypto assets in the first half of 2025 alone, a Reuters examination found. Much of that cash came from foreign sources.

BREAKING: I'm suing the Trump administration to prevent them from suspending SNAP benefits. I will not allow Trump to use hungry children as bargaining chips. USDA has a multi-billion dollar contingency fund intended to keep programs like SNAP running. They must use it.

Rep. Rosa DeLauro: "On the food stamp issue, the money is there! Let them not get away with saying they can't do it. Their political will isn't there to feed the people who rely on the SNAP program which is the most effective anti-hunger program in the USA."

Cutting families off from food assistance is absolutely unacceptable. That is why I have joined over 200 Members of Congress in calling on the Administration to release SNAP funding now. It’s also why we are dropping legislative language to force the Administration to release

Stop lying, @abcnews. The SNAP safety fund has $5 billion in it, ready to go, regardless of government opening. The correct headline: "Out of Spite, Republicans Refuse to Release Already-Approved SNAP Emergency Funds, Leaving Millions of Americans Hungry".

Trump is throwing 15 million Americans off health care. He's doubling premiums for 20 million Americans. Now, he's refusing to use a $5 billion emergency SNAP fund to keep 16 million kids from going hungry. But the 1% keep $1 trillion in tax breaks. Oligarchy in action.
