You didnt buy the Bible. You didnt mint the coin. You didnt sign up for Trump University or bid on the NFTs or book a room at Mar-a-Lago. You opted out of every scheme, every hustle, every grift and it didnt matter. Because while you were watching an illegal war burn through a billion dollars a day and TSA workers suffered because Congress couldnt find the money to pay them, Trump was doing something quieter. He was taking yours.
Trump has grifted his entire life. Now hes just taking it.
The State Department transferred $1.25 billion in foreign aid to Trumps Board of Peace, pulling $1 billion from international disaster assistance, $200 million from peacekeeping operations, and $50 million from international organizations. Money that Congress authorized for hurricanes and refugees, moved without a congressional vote, into a fund that Trump created by executive order and controls personally. When reporters asked the State Department about it, a spokesperson said they had nothing to announce at this time.
The Board of Peace has one defining characteristic. Trump controls it forever. He named himself chairman for life. No audits. No transparency requirements. No conflict of interest rules. Countries pay $1 billion into a fund he runs to get a seat at the table. It has transferred nothing to Gaza, disclosed nothing about its spending, and received $1.25 billion of your disaster relief money without a word of explanation.
When he leaves the White House he keeps the fund. That is not a loophole. That is the design.

Course, some will refuse to believe it, and some will claim he deserved to beg, borrow or steal whatever he gets.
