DONALD TRUMP raked in nearly $1.2 billion (£900 million) from his crypto businesses last year, according to a federal filing that sheds new light on how the US president’s personal wealth has ballooned since he returned to the White House in January last year.
Mere start-ups when Mr Trump took office, the new ventures have now eclipsed in revenue much of the vast property portfolio that took him decades to accumulate. Their rise was fuelled not only by billionaire investors but by Mr Trump’s own action to quash a federal crackdown on the industry.

Easily the most corrupt president in US history, and climbing the ranks of most corrupt political leaders in world history.
And still the establishment pretends that he’s a more or less ordinary president, with maybe a minor appearance of a bit of impropriety around the edges that maybe we should sort of keep an eye on, rather than the deranged, amoral, brazenly corrupt, lying sack of shit he so vividly is.
If the US was sane, he’d be out of office and in prison already, since he’s already overtly violated his oath of office and countless laws. But the US is patently insane, and the people who are entrusted with the authority to deal with threats like him are split between the evil ones who are assisting him and the cowardly ones who are apparently hoping that this will all blow over without them having to stir themselves to do anything about it.
“Not with a bang, but a whimper.”
