Trump is shamelessly using the White House to boost a shady #crypto scheme that’s already scammed investors out of billions all while courting foreign money. The TRUMP coin isn’t just a grift; it’s a natl. sec. risk.

Donald Trump profits from crypto. He controls the agencies meant to regulate it. Today, Rep. Maxine Waters stood up, called it what it is—corruption—and walked out of the hearing. This moment says everything.

President Trump just fired almost the entire staff of the CFPB, who protect you from getting scammed by Wall Street.

This is another assault on consumers and our democracy by Trump's lawless Administration.

We will fight back with everything we've got.

Before the 2008 economic crash, I rang the alarm about the risks building in our economy. I’m doing it again.

Our economy is flashing red warning lights as a result of Donald Trump’s economic sabotage.
