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 disappearance of America’s leadership class at a time like this means that the rest of us have to be leaders. We can no longer wait to be led by those with the power and authority to lead. You must lead, I must lead, all of us must lead. We are the leaders we’ve been waiting for.

Yeah- we’re finding out the hard way…

“…like trying to remember the name of the song you loved years and years ago: you feel haunted by the ghost of its melody, but despite your best attempts, the lyrics – the crucial key that will unlock that forgotten name – slip through your fingers like mist.”
