GRIFTER-IN-CHIEF: Trump Lauds the Agency He Corrupted that Regulates His Own Family Crypto Scams

The fortune that Donald Trump has made since reoccupying the White House dwarfs that of many third world nations. He has amassed billions of dollars by opening channels through which conflicted donors, greedy corporations, and nefarious foreign operatives, could funnel funds directly – and secretly – into his pockets.

Trump Baby on Cash Pile

High the list of the money laundering enterprises that Trump developed is the Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG) that runs his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social. That business has wandered off into a variety of totally unrelated activities such as cryptocurrency, mutual funds, gambling, artificial intelligence, and nuclear fusion. None of which have helped it to avoid becoming a pitiful financial fiasco that has lost investors billions of dollars.

Nevertheless, Trump has successfully managed these failures in a way that still nets him a fortune. Part of the reason for that success is that Trump has gamed the system to always provide profitable benefits for him. And true to form, Trump makes sure to thank himself for his illicit largesse, as he did Wednesday morning in a Truth Social post. He wrote in part that…

“It is critically important that the CFTC’s exclusive authority over Prediction Markets is maintained, and that they will thrive. Under my leadership, we are setting ‘rules of the road’ that are the Gold Standard for the States. We cannot have SCUM like Chris Christie, Letitia James, Tim Walz, and JB Pritzker setting the rules!”

That’s right! You can only have SCUM like Trump, his family, and accomplices, setting those rules. Despite the fitting acronym, the CFTC is not the Commission For Trump Corruption. It is the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, which is responsible for regulating financial transactions in the commodities markets, as well as for cryptocurrency and prediction markets.

The latter two just happen to be ventures that the Trump family is heavily engaged in. Under normal circumstances there would be legal and ethical guardrails prohibiting a president and his family from having such unsavory business associations. But there is nothing normal about Trump and his family. So naturally he is exploiting those industries to his advantage. And he is likely reacting to recent news about his criminal tendencies. As reported by the New York Times

How Prediction Markets and Crypto Firms Steamrolled a Watchdog Agency (May 24, 2026):
“The Commodity Futures Trading Commission purged its ranks, dialed back its enforcement and boosted industries in which President Trump’s family is heavily invested.”

“(T)the CFTC, the primary regulator of a specialized sector of the financial markets, has been mowed down by the powerful business interests it is supposed to oversee, a New York Times investigation found.

In the past 16 months of the Trump administration, the commission has shrunk its work force, purged career officials, sharply curtailed crypto enforcement and helped out prediction markets at virtually every turn, The Times found. […]

“The gutting of the agency is particularly notable because of the Trump family’s deep ties to the crypto and prediction industries.”

Like so many other government agencies during the Trump regime, Trump and his cronies have fired the career professionals at the CFTC and replaced them with Trump cult loyalists. This has been the case at the “Justice” Department, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the Department of Health and Human Services, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and many more, including that Offices of Inspectors General across all agencies.

Trump has presided over a dismantling of the systems that prevent corruption by government crooks. And he did it with the intention of blazing a trail for new wealth for himself and his billionaire pals. Unfortunately for the rest of the nation, it appears to be the one thing that he is actually any good at.

Trump Unloads Dozens of Insane Posts, Including Calling for the Arrest of Obama for Treason

The mental health of Donald Trump has long been a matter of public concern. And symptoms of his psychological and emotional infirmity are alarmingly present in his daily behavior with ever increasing regularity. These problems have previously been documented by professionals in books such as The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 37 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President.”

Barack Obama, Donald Trump

Evidence of Trump’s decline continues to be on display in the bizarre, daily outbursts he unleashes on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social. However, on Monday night he reached a new plateau of insanity, at least until the next one.

SEE THIS: Trump FREAKS OUT Over All the Bad News Dragging Him (and America) Down: Iran, Epstein, and More

Trump posted at least two dozen of some of the most blatantly ridiculous conspiracy theories about everything from the 2016 and 2020 elections being rigging, to allegations that Obama profited from Obamacare, to long ago debunked nonsense that Obama spied on Trump, and to charges that Jack Smith and James Comey fabricated evidence against him.

Literally none of those posts contained a shred of truth. And most of them were obvious nonsense invented by QAnon and other conspiracy kooks who never bother to provide any credible documentation. There was too much of this flaming bullshittery to respond to them all. But there was one that can serve as representative of the rest. It began with an all-caps headline bellowing that “BOMBSHELL EXPOSED: Obama’s Coup Plot UNRAVELING!”

Needless to say, there was no bombshell, no exposure, and nothing that was unraveled. The post went on to unravel flagrant lies that…

“Twenty CIA and FBI whistleblowers just dropped the hammer — Barack Obama and his CIA puppet John Brennan cooked up the entire Russia Hoax to steal the 2016 election and overthrow a duly elected President Trump. They doctored intelligence, weaponized the deep state, and launched a years-long witch hunt to destroy our movement.

“This isn’t conspiracy — it’s treason. The video proves they knew exactly what they were doing. How much longer do we let these criminals walk free? Time for real justice. Lock them up. Drain the swamp for good. Trump was right all along.”

To summarize, Trump’s post is baselessly accusing President Obama of a “Coup Plot” wherein he allegedly “cooked up the entire Russia Hoax to steal the 2016 election.” The post concludes that Obama and his administration are guilty of “treason” and that it’s time to “lock them up.” And the “proof” of these charges was supposedly in an attached video of an old press briefing on March 22, 2017, by former Rep. Devin Nunes, who went on to become the CEO of Truth Social, but was recently fired.

At the briefing, Nunes spoke about intelligence gathering related to Trump and Russia. It was later concluded that nothing improper was done and that Trump’s allegations of wrongdoing were lies. What’s more, the FBI, and later Special Counsel Robert Mueller, did uncover extensive contacts between Trump associates and Russians, contrary to Nunes’s early suggestion that there was “nothing there.”

MORE HERE: Exoneration? Collusion? Obstruction? Trump’s Fate is Sealed By 3 Brief Exchanges with Mueller

All of that glaringly fictional garbage was in just a single post. Trump made 23 others that were just as bad. They called for the arrest of Obama. Although they seemed to have forgotten that the Supreme Court ruling that gave Trump near universal immunity applies to Obama as well. They pretended to have irrefutable “evidence,” but it was all unsupported babbling by online crackpots.

The Crackpot-in-Chief, Donald Trump, embraced all of this hogwash and reposted it as facts. And just to seal the deal, here is one more of those posts that he either believed was real, or didn’t care that he was disseminating lies to his gullible flock of cult followers…

Trump posted this Monday night. It is all LIES!Sen. Kennedy never said any of these things about President Obama earning money from Obamacare. And Obama never earned any such money.It originated from a "satirical" website that discloses that everything they post is fiction.

YOU’RE FIRED: Trump Media’s CEO, Devin Nunes, Gets Booted From the Failing Truth Social Company

Shortly After Trump was banned from Twitter, before the Musk era, he launched his own social media website that was a direct ripoff of Twitter. His hysterically named “Truth” Social quickly became the dedicated propaganda platform for Trump’s ranting, insulting, lying, and shameless self-exaltations.

Donald Trump, Stock Market

The Truth Social website was stuffed into a corporate grab bag that was christened as Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG), and Trump hired former Republican congressman Devin Nunes to run it as its CEO.

In the four years since its launch Nunes, who had no relevant business experience whatsoever, proceeded to run the sham operation into the ground. He packaged it with a variety of unrelated undertakings, such as cryptocurrency, mutual funds, gambling, and even an attempt at AI that seemed to go rogue…

SEE THIS: Trump’s Truth Social AI is Woke AF: Even His Own Social Media App Hates Him

Now it is being reported that Nunes has been handed his walking papers. According to the New York Times

“Trump’s social media company, which has consistently lost money and struggled with a flagging share price, announced Tuesday that it was replacing Devin Nunes as its chief executive officer. The announcement offered no reason for the sudden departure of Mr. Nunes.”

And that…

“Trump Media has incurred hundreds of millions in losses, and its shares have performed poorly since the company went public. […] Last year, Trump Media took in $3.7 million in revenue and recorded a $712 million net loss.”

Indeed, TMTG has performed abysmally. Its stock is down 90% from its high. The vast majority of investors were creamed. But Trump and few other insiders made out like bandits – literally! So as a tribute to Mr. Nunes, let’s review some of the history of the company that he presided over for Trump, whose own business history is littered with failures and bankruptcies…

Trump’s Cratering Truth Social Stock Reflects the Catastrophe of Everything That Trump Does

Trump’s Cratering Truth Social Stock Reflects the Catastrophe of Everything That Trump Does

According to Donald Trump America is in the “Golden Age.” His starkly delusional misrepresentations of the state of the union paint a fantastical picture of a nation that he says is enjoying record levels of personal wealth. And for himself and his wealthy friends that’s true. However, for everyone else, Trump’s fallacies are a deliberate but futile effort to persuade the American people that they are uncommonly prosperous and happy.

Never mind the war that Trump started in Iran. Or his inflationary tariffs. Or his deployment of ICE thugs in U.S. cities. Or his suppression of voting and the free press. Undeterred by reality, Trump insists that he is the real Prince of Peace, and that he has single handedly driven down the costs of groceries, gasoline, housing, healthcare, and every other necessity of life that people are currently struggling to afford. And he expects his glassy-eyed disciples to believe those flagrant lies.

SEE THIS: Trump PR Flack, Karoline Leavitt, Embraces Poll that Proves MAGA is a Cult that Worships Trump

Emblematic of the financial fiascoes over which Trump presides is his famously failing Truth Social enterprise. The stock for his “Trump Media and Technology Group” (TMTG) has recently sunk to new lows. Almost exactly one year ago Trump announced his “Liberation Day” tariffs that he promised would generate trillions of dollars in GDP growth and eliminate inflation. But not only has that not materialized for the broader economy, his own TMTG stock (Truth Social) has dropped a whopping 68%. In April of 2025 it was trading at about $26.20 per share. As of Friday it’s still a dud at about $8.50.

So what is a plummeting investment scammer to do under these conditions? Well, obviously they are introducing a new layer of corruption to fleece more funds from their feeble flock. Which is why TMTG just announced that…

“Trump Media and Technology Group Corp. plans to issue a new cryptocurrency, which will be distributed among its shareholders. […] The coins won’t represent ownership of DJT shares, and may not be transferable or exchanged for cash.”

This new crypto coin venture joins a wide array of business lines that TMTG is stuffing into its portfolio. They include a nuclear fusion operation, a sports wagering marketplace, and a cryptocurrency treasury that began with a poorly timed $2 billion bet on Bitcoin, which was promptly cut in half from their $118,000 purchase price to its current price of about $67,000.

The opportunity for corruption has been way too compelling for Trump to resist. Consequently, he has used TMTG to enrich himself by having his Department of Homeland Security buy ads on Truth Social to recruit ICE agents. And in a secret deal he took $500 million from Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan of Abu Dhabi for a 49% stake in Trump’s World Liberty Financial. And after all of that, TMTG is now exploring spinning Truth Social off from the parent corporation in an effort to artificially juice the stock price.

These blatantly unsavory business transactions are just the latest examples of the criminal practices that are part and parcel of Trump’s methods of operation. What follows are some of what he has conspired to do in the recent past…

Trump Posts a Petty and Protracted Treatise on Truth Social About Bill Maher and – Wasting Time?

Donald Trump has just completed the first year of his second occupation of the White House. And now that the congressional midterm elections are approaching, this might be a good time to review what he and his MAGA Republican comrades have done in that year. Let’s begin where Trump began, with Congress passing his so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” that was a gift basket for his wealthy friends, but increased the national debt by record amounts.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump, Wah

Moving on, there was Trump’s idiotic imposition of inflationary that cost American businesses and consumers billions of dollars. And then there was Trump’s attack on Venezuela, where he anointed himself “acting president.” And then there were the U.S. institutions (i.e. the Smithsonian, the Agency for Global Media, the Institute of Peace, the Kennedy Center, etc.) that he either decimated or renamed for himself. And then there were the invasions of American cities by ICE’s StormTrumpers who terrorized American citizens, killing at least two them. And let’s not forget that he’s building a golden ballroom on the property where he demolished the East Wing of the White House. All of that should endear him to the American people, right? RIGHT?

SEE THIS: CUE TRUMP TANTRUM: Multiple Polls Find that Most Americans Favor Biden Over Trump

On Saturday morning Trump took to his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, to unleash yet another load of explosive diarhetoric. And true to form, it was a rambling disgorgement of lies and nonsense that can only make one wonder when the guys with butterfly nets are gonna show up. This new unburdening was truly something to behold. So…

TRUMP: "Sometimes in life you waste time."Other times you post insane 500 word tirades on wasting time. #25thAmendmentNOW!

News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-02-14T19:22:43.881Z

That’s right. Trump is complaining that “Sometimes in life you waste time!” That’s the same guy who spent his time in the White House for the past year on the vital national priorities noted above. Not to mention his staged Cabinet/sycophant meetings, his obsessive TV hate-watching, his golfing, etc. This particular time wasting was a 500 word diatribe about a dinner with comedian Bill Maher. To which America is responding with a hearty “Who the F**K cares?”

Of course, since Trump is incapable of focusing on a single subject for longer than a house fly will sit on a bread crumb, he littered the rant with some well worn lies about his alleged accomplishments, before retreating back to his familiar whining about comedians who dare to mock him. Seriously…Has any national leader ever been so egocentric, thin-skinned, and infantile?

Trump says that he was upset with Maher not appreciating his alleged “joke” that China would “terminate ALL Ice Hockey being played in Canada, and permanently eliminate The Stanley Cup.” Except that Trump posted that comment without any indication that he didn’t mean it. Just like his comments about taking over Greenland, and abolishing windmills because they drive whales crazy and cause cancer. Trump often claims to have been joking after his ludicrous comments prove to be too embarrassing to defend.

There is also the possibility that Trump was triggered by another bit on Maher’s show where he featured a bunch of “MAGA Baby Shower Gifts.” Such as…

“…a onesie that reads, ‘not an anchor baby’…a doll that cries liberal tears…a baby mobile with the faces of the cast of Fox and Friends…baby’s first blanket pardon…Stroller nuts…a baby monitor that alerts you when your child is woke…autism-free Tylenol…the Venezuelan boat bath toy…a diaper that reads, don’t blame Trump, this is Biden’s mess.”

Trump also made a point of maligning Maher as being “no different than Kimmel, Fallon, or Colbert,” and having such low ratings that “nobody will learn about his various Fake News statements about me.” Except for every one of his cult followers who read this schizoid post on Truth Social.

Trump closed with a typical accusation that Maher suffers from “Trump Derangement Syndrome.” Which is a diagnosis that more accurately describes a condition that Trump and his cult disciples suffer from.

Trump’s Truth Social is Littered with Loathsome Lies – Now Including a Fake JFK Jr

The dedicated propaganda platform that Donald Trump built, hilariously named “Truth” Social, was designed from the start to disseminate his putrid perspective of life in his warped vision of America. The website has always been gushing with flagrant falsehoods aimed at cultivating the devotion of his misguided cult disciples.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump, Toilet, Bathrobe

The determination of Trump to construct a fantasy world wherein he is the singularly successful and infallible messiah for a cadre of pseudo-patriots is the paramount goal of the MAGA movement. They are clan of misfits who are obsessed with finding innocent people to blame for all of their hardships. And Trump provides them the emotional ammunition to wage that war. All the while propping himself up on pedestal made of pure delusion.

SEE THIS: Reality TV President Trump Brags He is the Most Transparent Prez Ever. Real Reality Disagrees

Among the recent examples of the Trump Derangement Syndrome that he suffers from is the following ridiculous post that Trump made to Truth Social on Tuesday morning. It’s a sorry statement of just how distant he is from anything resembling mental stability. The post is allegedly a re-posting of a tweet by John Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr. It said in part that “[Trump] has been talking about how to make America great for decades.” And that he is “A true man of principle.”

Of course, JFK Jr. died in a plane crash twenty-five years ago. There is nothing in the tweet that identifies it as a fake. In fact, the profile for the account says that it is “John F. Kennedy Jr. Son of a President. Lawyer. Publisher of George. Voice for truth, unity, and justice. Living bridge between the Kennedy legacy.” However, it also says that it was created in November of 2025. Apparently it wasn’t enough for Trump to tarnish the memory of the Kennedys by renaming the Kennedy Center for himself. He also needs to steal the identity of family.

Obviously the ghost of JFK Jr. did not return to launch a Twitter/X account a couple of months ago. Nor would he have done so with a flurry of ludicrous tweets exalting Trump and a variety of crazy QAnon conspiracy theories. Although a few years ago JFK Jr. was the subject of some nonsense QAnon theories that he was still alive and would be joining a Trump ticket for the White House.

That’s the level of madness that Trump is exhibiting now. And it is on top of his other displays of madness. Such as wanting to take over Greenland, imposing inflationary tariffs around the world, anointing himself the acting president of Venezuela, and deploying ICE StormTrumpers into American cities.

There is a lot more of that flaming bullshittery on Truth Social every day. No wonder the company that operates it, Trump Media and Technology Group (DJT), is a financial basket case that has lost 64% of its value in the past year. And that’s just for starters. What follows are some of the problems that have plagued Trump’s media business…

Trump Media (Truth Social) Falls to Its Lowest Point Ever – And So Does Donald Trump
Reflecting the animus that Trump inspires in America, his scam business venture, Trump Media and Technology Group, is suffering its worst week since it went public a year and a half ago. It has lost a whopping 80% of its asset value since then.

Of course that might be because of the 34 felony convictions he has for defrauding banks. Not to mention a civil lawsuit finding of liability that cost him about half a billion dollars.

Trump’s Truth Social is Creating ‘Non-Woke’ Investment Portfolios for MAGA Cult Investors/Dupes
The focus of the Trump investment portfolios rests on buzzwords plucked from his political rhetoric. And what could possibly have more income potential than “non-woke” enterprises that pursue the anti-democratic goals of the MAGA movement?

Truth Social, Trump’s Pathetic Personal Propaganda Platform, Continues to Bleed Cash
In what may be the least surprising news of the year so far, Donald Trump’s flagship social media enterprise, Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG) – the parent holding company of his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social – released its annual report on Friday that revealed just how big a failure it is.

Trump’s Truth Social is Shedding Users Like a Miserable Childless Woman’s Mangy Cat
The Donald Trump-controlled Truth Social platform recorded its third straight month of declining traffic. Truth Social attracted 2,112,000 unique visitors, down 38% compared to June 2023 when the site generated 3,407,000 unique visitors. It was the platform’s second worst traffic performance since June 2022 when Truth Social had only 1,891,000 unique visitors.

Trump Escalates His Threat to Take Greenland By Force in an Absolutely Insane Truth Social Rant

The legacy of Donald Trump is going to be jam-packed with the most profoundly preposterous actions and rhetoric of any president in the history of the United States – or any other nation for that matter. His wild outbursts attacking everything from previous presidents, to the free press, to windmills that kill birds and cause cancer, make life difficult for political comedians whose humor can’t compete with Trump’s insanity.

Donald Trump Pacifier Fox

However, Trump’s actions as president are far worse than his words. He has imposed inflationary tariffs on virtually every country on the planet, including our allies. He has terminated international aid that has resulted in hundreds of thousands of preventable deaths. He invaded Venezuela and abducted its president who he calls a drug trafficker, while granting pardons to certified, convicted drug kingpins. He has deployed soldiers into American cities to suppress constitutionally protected dissent. And for that abridged selection of Trump’s many malfeasances, he believes that he should be anointed president-for-life…

SEE THIS: Trump Whines That He Has ‘Accomplished So Much’ That ‘We Shouldn’t Even Have An Election’

If any further proof were needed that Trump is suffering from a severe case of mental impairment, Trump himself provided it on Saturday morning. He posted a tediously elongated tirade, intended to justify his deranged obsession with taking over Greenland, on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. It’s too long and filled with bullshit to repost. But what follows are a few annotated excerpts that provide a summary of just how far the cognitive rot has eaten into Trump’s mushy brain matter. He begins…

“We have subsidized Denmark, and all of the Countries of the European Union, and others, for many years by not charging them Tariffs.”
Not charging tariffs is not the same as subsidizing. To the contrary, charging tariffs is commonly regarded as a sanction. which is exactly how Trump is using them in this instance by his own admission.

“It is time for Denmark to give back — World Peace is at stake! China and Russia want Greenland.”
Denmark doesn’t owe the U.S. anything. And world peace is hardly at stake because Greenland is a territory of an American ally in NATO. Also, Russia and China have exhibit no interest in Greenland, and if they did they would face international resistance from the NATO alliance.

“They [Greenland] currently have two dogsleds as protection.”
Trump thinks this is funny. In reality Greenland has been successfully affiliated with Denmark for 300 years (longer than the U.S. has existed). And Denmark is well equipped with modern maritime and air power technologies, including a fleet of American F-35 fighter jets.

“Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland have journeyed to Greenland, for purposes unknown. This is a very dangerous situation. Therefore, it is imperative that, in order to protect Global Peace and Security, strong measures be taken.”
Trump is openly threatening an array of American allies. Which actually makes him the provocateur of a “dangerous situation.” Is he talking about the same “measures” he used against Venezuela?

“Starting on February 1st, 2026, all of the above mentioned Countries (Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland), will be charged a 10% Tariff on any and all goods sent to the United States of America. On June 1st, 2026, the Tariff will be increased to 25%.”
So Trump is threatening to rescind his prior trade agreements that he made with these nations, and instead punish them for adhering to the long held NATO treaty obligations that the U.S. is also subject to. These tariffs will only make the cost of living hardships in the U.S. – which are due to Trump’s already atrocious economic policies – even worse.

“This Tariff will be due and payable until such time as a Deal is reached for the Complete and Total purchase of Greenland.”
In Trump’s mob boss lingo, he thinks that he is extorting America’s allies to coerce them into complying with his utterly unreasonable demands. “Give me what I want,” Trump is yalping, “or pay up.” But he is actually just forcing American companies and consumers to pay more for everything imported from these countries.

True to form, Trump is demonstrating how pitifully ignorant he is of economics and international relations. But unfortunately, it is the citizens of the U.S., and these foreign targets of Trump’s egomaniacal wrath, who will suffer.

There is, however, some good news. The suffering that Trump is causing may not be long lasting. Everything he is doing lately is contributing to his being the most reviled president in decades. And as his approval ratings sink into the abyss, his comrades in Congress will begin to fear the voters more than they fear him. At that point – and we may be there now – Trump will be vulnerable to political defiance, sanctions, and even impeachment. Particularly if he takes hostile actions toward Greenland. Or Minneapolis, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Portland, etc.

Trump’s Scammy Media Stock, and Truth Social Parent, Completes a Classic Pump and Dump

As the first year of Donald Trump’s second occupation of the White House winds down, the evidence of his failure is glaringly apparent. His administration has presided over economic debacles, executed foreign policy blunders, and is mired in domestic scandals, including the Jeffrey Epstein affair that is breaking apart his previously devoted MAGA cult.

Trump Baby on Cash Pile

Trump’s own financial endeavors have been on a descent into ever deeper depths. Although he has structured his business ventures much like the Mafia, where they produce gains for him regardless of how they actually perform. Any other investors have likely lost a bundle.

The latest example of that is the merger of the Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG) with TAE Technologies, a nuclear fusion startup. TAE’s energy products are at present speculative and they have no facilities generating any power resources. Nevertheless, the news caused TMTG’s stock to surge 33% from about $11.00 per share to a high of about $16.80. That gain, however was short-lived. Two weeks later TMTG is hovering at around $12.80 again. So anyone who jumped in on the news is already suffering a 25% loss.

That’s typical of the tribulations of investors in Trump and his business misadventure. Throughout 2025, TMTG’s stock has spiraled downward. It has crashed more than 62% year to date. And this is the year that Trump returned to power, causing many of his supporters to assume that he and his businesses would be a good investments.

There is no reason to believe that the TAE merger will turn anything around. The last major news from TMTG was that it was entering the crypto business. It represented a major departure from its core media technology pursuits to a sort of cryptocurrency treasury. They made a huge and poorly timed $2 billion bet on Bitcoin, which then promptly plummeted from their $118,000 purchase price to about $88,000. Trump’s economic advisors are proving to be no more capable than his political advisors.

Despite the financial fiascos that Trump has presided over, he continues to shield himself from the losses suffered by his flock of cult followers, who keep getting fleeced, but seem to like it. Even more troubling is that his shady practices are providing a path for disreputable parties to grease his palm for political favors. That includes foreign operatives from adversarial nations and conflicted corporate leaders seeking legislative largesse. All of whom are more interested in buying influence than investing.

Trump’s fiscal failings are mirroring his political plunges. He is stuck at the bottom of the political pothole that he has dug for himself. Although you wouldn’t know by the celebratory gushing of his perky Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt. For a more reality-based appraisal of Trump’s misfortunes, here’s a brief summary of the ongoing disaster we know as Trump World…

Trump Media (Truth Social) Falls to Its Lowest Point Ever – And So Does Donald Trump
Reflecting the animus that Trump inspires in America, his scam business venture, Trump Media and Technology Group, is suffering its worst week since it went public a year and a half ago. It has lost a whopping 80% of its asset value since then.

Trump’s Truth Social AI is Woke AF: Even His Own Social Media App Hates Him
Truth Social’s Artificial Intelligence app is going woke. It is actually telling the truth about Trump and contradicting his flagrant lies on numerous subjects.

The Trump Media and Technology Group (Truth Social) Scam Reflects His Fondness for Fraud
During an interview on CNBC, Trump complained that he has been treated “very badly” by banks that he alleged were discriminating against him. Of course that might be because of the 34 felony convictions he has for defrauding banks. Not to mention a civil lawsuit finding of liability that cost him about half a billion dollars.

Trump’s Truth Social is Creating ‘Non-Woke’ Investment Portfolios for MAGA Cult Investors/Dupes
The focus of the Trump investment portfolios rests on buzzwords plucked from his political rhetoric. And what could possibly have more income potential than “non-woke” enterprises that pursue the anti-democratic goals of the MAGA movement?

Truth Social, Trump’s Pathetic Personal Propaganda Platform, Continues to Bleed Cash
In what may be the least surprising news of the year so far, Donald Trump’s flagship social media enterprise, Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG) – the parent holding company of his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social – released its annual report on Friday that revealed just how big a failure it is.

The Donald Trump-controlled Truth Social platform recorded its third straight month of declining traffic. Truth Social attracted 2,112,000 unique visitors, down 38% compared to June 2023 when the site generated 3,407,000 unique visitors.

Trump Media (Truth Social) Falls to Its Lowest Point Ever – And So Does Donald Trump

In the fall of 2025, the fortunes of Donald Trump have fallen on hard times. The November 4th election saw him lose virtually every contest in which his influence or reputation was a factor. And the snowballing scandal regarding his unsavory association with child sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein, has picked up steam even among his Republican confederates in congress who just voted to release the Epstein files.

Donald Trump Circling the Drain

No wonder Trump is furiously freaking out and throwing some of the most deranged tantrums of his decade in politics. Which given his record of bizarre and psychotic episodes to date, is really saying something. It also explains in part his desperation to rig the upcoming elections next year for which he is likely to be the biggest burden crushing the prospects of his Republican cult…er…Party.

Reflecting the animus that Trump inspires in America, his scam business venture, Trump Media and Technology Group, is suffering its worst week since it went public a year and a half ago. It has lost a whopping 80% of its asset value since then. Just in the past month its stock lost 32% marking its lowest price since listing. And these declines have occurred while the stock market indexes have been surging.

The last quarterly report for the company showed yet another “net loss of $54.8 million.” They made a huge and poorly timed $2 billion bet on Bitcoin, which then promptly plummeted from their $118,000 purchase price to about $95,000 in the past couple of months. They also reported a massive $20.3 million in legal fees to fend off allegations of fraud and financial misconduct.

Not surprisingly, Trump’s own approval ratings have performed in sync with his corporate enterprise. Which is to say that they have cratered in historic fashion, settling at or near the bottom of his placing since his reoccupation of the White House. As reported by Newsweek

“Trump’s approval rating remained at the lowest level since his term started in January [40%]. His popularity has been within a percentage point or two of its current level in every Reuters/Ipsos poll since mid-May. The share of people who say they disapprove of his performance has grown, from 52% in a May 16-18 poll to 58% in the latest survey.”

This translates electorally to disaster for Trump and the GOP. Recent polls show that 44% of Democrats said they were “very enthusiastic” about voting in the November 3, 2026, elections, compared with 26% of Republicans, who appear to be severely depressed and disillusioned. And the percent of Democrats who said that the Party had “lost its way” declined by 10 points since August. Which suggests that their decision to “cave,” as some have described it, in order to end the Trump Shutdown not only hasn’t hurt them, it may have helped.

None of this should surprise anyone who has been paying attention to Trump’s financial and political status in recent months that has been anything but promising. What follows is a brief summary of the disaster we know has Trump World…

Trump’s Truth Social AI is Woke AF: Even His Own Social Media App Hates Him

In recent years the mediaverse have been leaning farther and farther to the right. The Washington Post was bought by Jeff Bezos. CBS was acquired by David and Larry Ellison with their purchase of Paramount. CNN’s editorial has shifted rightward. Twitter was devoured by Elon Musk. And that’s just some of the bigger concerns.

Donald Trump Pacifier Fox

In addition to news organizations being bought up by MAGA billionaires, other media outlets have been capitulating to pressure from Trump and his MAGA-tized FCC. Both ABC and NBC have paid millions to pacify Trump’s lust for one-sided, rapturous reporting. And programs such as Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel have suffered Trump’s wrath, leading cancellation or suspension. These are all familiar tactics used by formerly democratic countries that have transitioned into dictatorships.

However, it is apparently not enough for the Trump regime to dominate conventional media. He also needs to put his boot down on the digital media world. That’s why he launched his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. But that platform is not behaving as gushingly worshipful as he might like or expect.

Sam Stein of “The Bulwark” reported on Tuesday that Truth Social’s Artificial Intelligence app is going woke. It is actually telling the truth about Trump and contradicting his flagrant lies on numerous subjects. Stein posted several examples of how Truth Social’s AI is responding to some questions on current events.

Q: “Do Trump’s Tariffs cost the American people money?”
Truth Search AI: “Yes. Tariffs are taxes on imports that U.S. importers pay and largely pass on through higher prices, so the costs are borne mainly by American businesses and consumers.”

Q: “Did Donald Trump lie about the 2020 election being ‘rigged’ and ‘stolen?’”
Truth Search AI: “Yes. Courts, Trump’s own advisers, and official investigations found no evidence that the 2020 election was ‘rigged’ or ‘stolen,’ despite his repeated claims.”

Q: “Did people storm the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2020, because of Donald Trump?”
Truth Search AI: “Yes. Multiple official and contemporaneous records attribute the January 6, 2021, Capitol breach to a pro-Trump crowd mobilized around his false election fraud claims and pressure campaign to stop certification.”

Q: “How many wars has Trump ended since taking office in 2025?”
Truth Search AI: “None. There is no verified instance of President Trump formally ending a war since taking office in January 2025.”

Q: “Have grocery prices gone down since Donald Trump took office on Jan. 20, 2025?”
Truth Search AI: “Short answer: No. As of 2025, grocery prices have not fallen since Jan. 20, 2025; they have continued to rise modestly on net.”

When Trump gets wind of this he’s going to go apesh*t trying to figure out who this “A.I.” guy is so he can fire him. He may try to fire former NBA star, Allen Iverson. Perhaps he’ll take it out on Devin Nunes, the former Republican congressman who now runs Truth Social and the Trump Media and Technology Group so poorly.

What makes these responses even more striking is that Truth Social uses AI provided by Perplexity, which allows their clients to filter the news sources that they want the chat bot to use. And Truth Social has taken advantage of that feature to limit their sources to rabidly pro-MAGA sites such as Fox News, Fox Business, The Washington Times, The Epoch Times, Breitbart, Newsmax, and JustTheNews. And yet, the app still managed to somehow come up with accurate answers.

So despite their best efforts, the truth really does prevail – sometimes. But that doesn’t mean that it wasn’t their intention to deceive. And anyone who uses Truth Social as a source of information is just begging to be lied to. So the MAGA minions obviously will love it.
