"Although Farage did not reach the islands, it generated attention for Reform as the party sought to set the political agenda on the Chagos Islands controversy. While a precise equivalent cost for the trip is unavailable, private jets of the size of those used would typically cost upwards of £10,000 an hour between the two." Still; no sign of his jolly on his registered financial interests on the parliamentary website (registration term = 28 days). #ReformUK 🐸 #grift https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2026/mar/08/private-jet-used-for-nigel-farage-chagos-stunt-linked-to-reform-mega-donor

How much money has Trump profiteered from his presidential office in the past year, you ask? David Kirkpatrick has the answer for you: a whopping $4.05 billion. #Trump #EconomicElites #grift #corruption #profiteering https://www.newyorker.com/news/a-reporter-at-large/trumps-profiteering-hits-four-billion-dollars

“A'll he wants is a ballroom, stadiums named after him, the Arc de Trump, to party with his rich friends, and for billionaires to kiss his ass.'

#TFG #Grift From the New Yorker: “It has been a lucrative year for the Trump family. In just the past six months or so, a bitcoin mining company headed by Eric Trump brought the family more than a hundred million dollars. Promotions by a major crypto exchange (whose founder the President recently pardoned) have positioned the family to pull in about a hundred and thirty-six million dollars. A convoluted deal that turned a company into a stockpile of Trump-linked digital tokens appears to have brought the family another five hundred and sixty-two million dollars. And crypto is hardly the only family business. The Trumps sold the use of their name to a Saudi real-estate company that is close to the royal family for a resort in the Maldives and two other new megaprojects inside the kingdom. Donald Trump, Jr., made millions by reinventing himself as an adviser or director to half a dozen companies. And President Trump, whose Administration regulates the banking and securities industries, filed a lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase demanding five billion dollars—not as a deposit in the U.S. Treasury but as a check made out to Donald J. Trump. Donald Trump opening a bank safe. Illustration by Erik Carter This past summer, I set out to tally up just how much the Trumps have made off the Presidency—to sum it all up in a number. The total then was $3.4 billion. Nearly six months later, at the end of Trump’s first year back in the White House, I am updating my reporting: the total has now reached four billion dollars. 1/2

Morning, all, Lyse Doucet reported on #BBCWorldService that President Donald Trump has appointed himself Chairman of this new 'Board of Peace,' a position he will apparently hold for life, not just for his time in office as #POTUS. On another issue, where can I get hold of the merch? I'd love a tee -shirt displaying 'I PAID DONALD TRUMP ONE BILLION DOLLARS TO JOIN HIS 'BORED OF PEACE' AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS LOUSY T-SHIRT' #GOP #MAGA #USpol #Corruption #Sleaze #Grift #NoKIngs #TyrantTrump
