#10 - The Tesla Ad
During a Tesla stock crash and days after Elon Musk infused $100m into
Trump's political operation, the two stood on the South Lawn of the White House, posing for the cameras while the President purchased a Tesla. Pay
to play and product placement on the White House lawn.

#9 - Gutting the Watchdogs
Trump has acted to dismantle or manipulate regulatory agencies, like the
NLRB and CFPB, that are, in many cases, investigating companies owned by
Musk and Trump's other billionaire buddies. With no watchdogs, corruption becomes policy.

#8 - Quid Pro Quo
…Again Indicted NYC Mayor Eric Adams got his charges dropped in what
appeared to be a quid pro quo for pledging to do Trump’s dirty work on unrelated immigration policy. Numerous DOJ officials resigned in protest,
and justice was never served.

#7 - Anti-Bribery Laws Out The Window
Trump ordered the DOJ to pause enforcement of anti-bribery laws, making
it easier for U.S. companies to bribe foreign officials. Not just turning
a blind eye to corruption. Tacitly authorizing it.

#6 - Musk's Insider Info
Elon Musk and his DOGE bros gained access to enforcement data at OSHA,
and the private information of millions of Americans held by the IRS and
other agencies. He now holds the data to power his AI, or to weaponize
against his competitors. Under Trump, access to your data is a perk of friendship.

#5 - Billionaire Favoritism
Trump’s FAA threatened to cancel a long-standing contract with Verizon in
hopes of replacing it with a contract with Elon Musk-owned Starlink. No
open bidding. No oversight. Just blatant favoritism for a billionaire
donor and buddy.

#4 - Spending Tax Dollars at His Own Properties
So far, Trump has made 63 visits to his own properties costing taxpayers millions of dollars that go directly into his pocket. At least half of
those were golf visits, including while he sent the stock market
tumbling. I guess that's par for the course.

#3 - Picking Apart the Law Firms
Trump publicly threatened law firms which employed lawyers or represented clients he didn’t like, chilled legal opposition to his policies, and
extorted hundreds of millions in free legal work for his pet causes. A
literal racket.

#2 - The DOJ as Personal Attorneys
He hired his top criminal lawyers to lead the department. The result?
Cases against Trump allies dropped. Investigations into critics launched.
The DOJ under Trump hasn't just been politicized — it has been weaponized
to reward loyalty and punish dissent.

#1 - The Memecoin
Effectively posting his Venmo for the entire world to buy favor, Trump's memecoin is the most egregious, and most lucrative example of political corruption in modern history. In fees alone, Trump has seen hundreds of millions of dollars flow into his personal bank account and that of his
kids, including money from foreign interests looking to buy influence.
