It's disgusting.

Too fing late now. It's going to be four years of non stop grift. |
Sorry, they and every news outlet needs to hit all of this harder. Yes, the editorial board has been getting it right, but still way too much normalization from them. I’m not going to laud these half-a$$ed call outs. And, they’re doing better than many other publications. |
I’m pp this is what I’m talking about right here: “raises the appearance of a conflict of interest”
No, it is an effing conflict of interest. Why can’t they say that?????? |
Tiny Company With China Ties Announces Big Purchase of Trump Cryptocurrency
The firm, which produces content for TikTok, recorded no revenue last year, but it announced this week that a mysterious stock sale would allow it to invest heavily in the $TRUMP memecoin. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/13/us/politics/trump-crypto-purchase.html |
On the Senate floor on Tuesday, Senator Christopher S. Murphy, Democrat of Connecticut, spent 20 minutes walking through the various sources of overseas money pouring into the Trump family business, including the memecoin, a real-estate deal involving the government of Qatar and a separate $2 billion crypto deal with a firm backed by the United Arab Emirates. “If a mayor of a small town was selling meetings at City Hall for a thousand bucks, he would be run out of town on a rail, but that’s exactly what Donald Trump is doing in the Middle East and all over the world,” Mr. Murphy said. |
This is a mind boggling level of grift. And Republicans are just shrugging their shoulders at it and enabling corruption at |
Opinions of editorial boards. I should GAS?
Nope. |
Wow-you’re such a “smart and articulate” person. We don’t GAS about useless posts. |
You don’t have to care, but when the WSJ, which is owned by Rupert Murdoch and which is the newspaper of note for the business community and which is not left-leaning like the rest of the media Trump accuses of being “fake news” points out Trump’s corruption, then you can bet lots of other people do GAS. |
Too late . No problem hunter selling "art" for 500k each.
Crypto is a growing area. Look at Bitcoin... Why can't there be competitive coins? Bitcoin may get replaced by something better. |
Dems hate when the right learns and uses their tricks |
Hunter Biden wasn’t elected to anything. Donald Trump was. Joe Biden never accepted hundreds of millions of dollars in gifts from foreign governments. And if you can’t see the difference between hundreds of thousands in paintings and hundreds of millions in crypto and jets, you need to go back to elementary school math class. |
