Sounds pretty SHADY and grifty to me! Trump, Bessent, and Rubio are putting money from the sale of Venezuelan assets into an account in Qatar that they alone own and control - NOT into the US Treasury.
"Trumps order noted that at least some of the revenue would be held in US Treasury accounts." OH? Where is the rest, and whose name is on those Qatar accounts?
Elizabeth Warren: There is no basis in law for a president to set up an offshore account that he controls so that he can sell assets seized by the American military.

He is saying if the Supreme Court rules against his tariffs it will be devastating. It will be devastating because I'm guessing the tariff money is also in his sovereign wealth fund.
