Every dollar, every time, every last fucking penny needs to be stripped from all the Trump and Lutnick spawn and all the other oligarchs who are ripping off this country every day, like Putin in his new Soviet Russia. They all need to be in prison for the rest of their lives, and every single bit of worth they have -- from their penthouses to their yachts to their ranches to their summer homes to their overseas hoards -- needs to be grabbed back and put into the American people's coffers.

Along with huge tax increases for anyone earning over 10 million a year or anyone worth over $100 million, that quadrillion dollars that these crooks have stolen from us must be put back into our social security, healthcare for all, new infrastructure, and all the other aspects of life in a civilized country that the Republicans have deliberately destroyed over the last 50 years.

Remember when it was a huge scandal when someone who had already sold his interest in uranium mining gave money to the Clinton Foundation? There was a whole “Hillary sold uranium to Russia!” lie behind it that dragged on for years and years.

Don’t know why I started thinking about that just now.

The good news about the $1,400,000,000 he raked in from the crypto scams is this:

he has proven that he is too stupid not to fuck up that much money, so it is only a matter of time and also too but yet still, the rubes have $1,400,000,000 LESS Ameros to throw at the next fascist piece of shit on the horizon. or for baloney and rice. or for ammunition.

About that Tungsten

If & when the mine ever starts producing Tungsten, who and to what countries will they be selling to?

Refining tungsten from ore is a very complex process.

It isn’t extracted in furnaces because of its extremely high melting temp (6,200 degrees).

So, there better be some people involved who know what they are doing.

If there is no digging yet being done, it may be more than 5 years before they start seeing ore.

They will be spending a lot of money before they see any revenue.

Also, I have read that our government has invested government money in the project. Basically, that project will need a lot of money for a number lof years before it generates any revenue. And the whole ore processing and extraction facilities may be very expensive to construct. Many years ago, I was in a copper mine at Superior or Globe , Arizona where they just finished building a $300 million dollar copper electrolytic refinery. That Tungsten mine is going to burn thru a whole lot money .

You don't imagine if the Trump spawn give a shit about tungsten or mining or refining or turning it into alloys, do you? They're interested in exactly one aspect of tungsten: it's value.

IThey don't give a shit if it's ever mined or not. They've got their up-front money, they'll get money from our government for selling the future tungsten to our military services, and then, when it's discovered that it will cost money to refine it and use it, they'll get out with their cash and leave somebody else holding the bag. That's what Daddy has done for 60 years it's what their grandfather did, and it's what they've been doing for 20 years since they got their purchased college degrees.

Believe me, it won't be the Trump's money that that tungsten mine is going to burn through; it will be our money and other people's money. The only aspect of money involved with the trumps is the profits, which will all go to them.

Will the mine be called Wolfram Alpha?

I had to look that up. Interesting site. I could have used that looking up alloys.

I haven’t seen any name yet for the mine.

OT: I think something in Tabs linked me to a story on this substack, but OMG, this stack is gold! Here they interview a guy who worked on Celebrity Apprentice and Trump was shitting himself even back then:

I worked the Dem booth at our Ventura County Fair a number of times. Especially during the ‘16 election campaign. A hip couple stopped by our booth and talked to us, he was wearing a real nice, black NBC jacket and told us that he worked on “The Apprentice” and he told us that Trump was a real asshole. But he didn’t go into detail.

I saw Norm Eisen having a few thoughts on that yesterday somewhere on the TeeVee.

> His crypto ventures, the report shows, are now some of his most lucrative enterprises, a remarkable turnabout for a man who once slammed crypto as a haven for drug dealers and scammers.

That's not a turnaround, that's fulfilling expectations: the *are* scammers.

When Trump slams something as unethical, it's an endorsement.

"There’s also this extremely weird gigantic loan from Charles Schwab that Trump took out last year in the disclosure, more than $50 million."

Oops, there goes my 401(k).

Not the most important thing about this post but WTF with those "cowboys" standing behind FOTUS in the "threesome| (gag) video? Did his new plane take a wrong turn and land him in Valencia for the Gay Games?

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

They are dressed as Teddy Roosevelt Rough Riders. It was the opening of the Teddy Roosevelt library.

I am reminded that, when the media was first speculating about Trump's business, and he was refusing to release his personal tax returns, it was mentioned that the Trump Organization was comprised of over 500 business entities, many of them opaque LLCs. So, we really only know the corruption that's out there on the surface. Other questions still remain: how many of those business entities have outside investors or lenders? Who is Trump actually in business with? To whom does he own money? How many of those people are criminals? How many are foreigners? The potential for conflicts of interest, criminality, and corruption is huge.
