European intelligence warned that the first U.S. draft to end the Ukraine war was shaped early by Russian oligarch emissaries and U.S. investors seeking sanctions-linked deals—while Ukraine saw it only after key concessions were set.

Trump bought Boeing bonds while rewarding the company billions in federal contracts.

He bought Intel bonds after directing the government to acquire a stake in the company.

He bought Meta bonds while pushing AI-friendly policy.

Trump isn’t governing — he’s cashing in.

The agency kept the practice largely hidden from the public and Congress.
