He did grave damage to US economy with tariffs.
The economy was already spiraling into a recession.
& SCOTUS is on day five of letting US corporations go under bc the Trump Administration insists it can unilaterally renege on contracts after the fact.

If you’re eliminating rules to end money laundering, it means you’re promoting money laundering.
Once again the Trump administration is siding with his donors to protect corruption, instead of the people being harmed by their corruption.

Trump's Treasury Department said it won't enforce an anti-money laundering law requiring millions of business entities to disclose the identities of their real beneficial owners.

NEWS: The USAID official put on leave for disseminating two memos about Rubio's failure to push through life-saving foreign aid was in the process of writing a THIRD memo when fired. We obtained it. It's far more alarming than the first two.

Rubio terminated 5800 USAID contracts – more than 90% of its foreign aid programs – in defiance of the courts.
Here’s a list of just some of the lifesaving awards that were terminated. Nearly all were Congressionally mandated. They’ve saved millions of lives. 🧵
