WTF
Studies have found that Hydroxychloroquine is not an effective treatment for COVID-19.

It's killing veterans.

(Trump also, AFIK, does not have COVID-19.)

There is a decent chance Trump is not taking it and is lying but that doesn't make this any better

1. Don't believe the headlines.

Trump's $1.776 billion slush fund is not "dead."

The Trump administration wants to the public to believe it's dead.

But their ACTIONS tell a very different story.
2. Here is the key point: The settlement that created the $1.766 billion "anti-weaponization" fund is a WRITTEN DOCUMENT.

It says explicitly that it "may be modified only with the written agreement of the Parties.”

3. In his testimony before a House committee, however, AG Blanche said that there would be NO WRITTEN MODIFICATIONS to the settlement and that he would continue to defend it in court.

1. For the SECOND TIME IN SIX MONTHS, a foreign real estate development led by Jared Kushner has been derailed by a GOVERNMENT CORRUPTION SCANDAL and mass protests.

Follow along for all the gory details.

🧵
2. Jared and Ivanka are developing a $4 billion resort centered around an uninhabited island in Albania.

The massive project, which includes 10,000 hotel rooms, is located in one of Europe’s most environmentally sensitive areas.

3. In 2024, the Albanian government changed the law to allow the area, which was previously part of a protected national park, to be developed.

Then shortly after Trump's election, Kushner, through an LLC, was granted “strategic investor“ status, clearing the way for permits.

1. Real Change PAC, a super PAC that purports to be "committed to progressive values," has spent millions of dollars in Democratic primaries.

It is actually a Republican front closely tied to House Republican leadership.

3. According to FEC filings analyzed by Popular Information, the CLF -- the primary super PAC of the House Republicans -- spent over $10 million in the 2024 cycle buying digital ads through Cavalry.

1. A Popular Information reveals that two more "progressive" super PACs are linked to House Republicans and Speaker Mike Johnson.

They've worked pretty hard to cover their tracks, but not quite hard enough.

Follow along for details.
2. One PAC that has raised suspicions is California Blue

It is registered at 3571 Far West Boulevard, a mailbox store in Austin, Texas

Of the 5.5K committees registered this cycle, only one other used this address

popular.info/p/two-progress…
3. The treasurer of that PAC, Stop Talarico, is Lisa Lisker, Mike Johnson's campaign treasurer.

Lisker also is the treasurer of Grow the Majority, one of the joint fundraising committees for the CFL, the House Republican super PAC. Image

1. Lead Left, a super PAC created on 4/24, purports to stand "against MAGA extremists."

It has spent $3M+ in Democratic primaries.

But it's funders and motivations have been secret.

Until now.

It's a GOP dirty tricks operation.

🧵
2. Popular Information found that Lead Left is linked to Caleb Crosby, a Republican operative. Crosby is the treasurer of the Congressional Leadership Fund (CLF), the primary super PAC of the House GOP.

popular.info/p/a-gop-dirty-…
3. Lead Left's spending has been unusual.

In Texas, Lead Left spent 900K supporting Maureen Galindo in the Democratic House primary. Galindo, a sex therapist, pledged to turn an ICE detention facility a “prison for American Zionists.”

Her campaign less than 11K. (She lost last night.)

1. Trump has repeatedly promoted an online casino, Stake, on social media after its founder and owner, Bijan Tehrani donated $1 million to Trump's Super PAC, MAGA Inc.

According to multiple state regulators, Stake is an illegal operation.
2. Trump publicized Stake alongside the UFC match being held at the White House on his 80th birthday, June 14. He posted AI-images featuring himself, UFC CEO Dana White, and the Stake logo on 4/9, 5/8, and twice on 5/20.

popular.info/p/trump-promot…
3. Stake users in the US play traditional casino games like slots and roulette. The company, which is based in Cyprus, claims it is a “safe and free gaming experience.”

But its all a ruse and its really indistinguishable from gambling.
