Trump’s BILLION DOLLAR secret that he’s DESPERATE to protect

There's a secret reason that Donald Trump is actually panicking about 2026 and it's sort of a billion dollar secret that Trump is desperate to protect. And I want to explain it today. You know, MAGA Mike Johnson last week said the quiet part out loud, which is if we lose the majority, they will try to end the Trump administration. And everyone focused on the word end.

0:22

But there is another story about what Trump is terrified of and its money and its money to the tune of billions. Trump's entire crypto empire and the paper trail that exposes it is something that is terrifying him. Now, Trump's net worth, depending on who you believe, was, you know, a few billion in 2020. And supposedly today it's like seven billion

dollars. So Trump has added billions to his net worth. Where did it come from? There's a crypto ecosystem built around World Liberty Financial. World Liberty Financial is run by Eric Trump, Don Jr. and Zach Whitcoff, the son of Steve Whitcoff, whose father happens to be Trump's

envoy to the Middle East. Now, the company launched in late twenty twenty four and they rolled out a stable coin, USD one in early twenty twenty five. And I've told you some of this already. And within weeks, USD one exploded in size because the Abu Dhabi backed firm MGX invested two billion dollars using Trump's stable coin.

1:27

Now I already told you at about 4% interest, that's like $80 million a year for Trump's family business. Now a reminder about what Maga Mike Johnson said, the president is on the ballot in 2026.

1:40

The president Trump is on the ballot next fall because if we lose the majority of the Republicans, the common sense people here who are doing the job for the American people, if we lose the majority in the house and this radical element of the Democrat party were were able to take over, we've already seen that movie. They will try to end the Trump administration. He won't have four years to lab only two and they will try to systematically unwind all

2:01

the important reforms that we've done for the American people. The president.

2:05

So bear that in mind. And then remember, there's the meme coin. That's the crypto token with Donald Trump's face that added potentially billions. One token reportedly generated around $5 billion in total new wealth for the entire operation, some fraction of which goes to Trump. And you've got foreign governments and foreign billionaires investing very heavily in these

2:27

Trump limped Trump linked crypto projects while getting favorable treatment from the administration. Now, this is sort of taking. Remember when Trump had that D.C. hotel, which failed and dignitaries would stay in that hotel when they would come to D.C. to meet with Trump. And then it's like, hey, I'm staying at your hotel, a way to ingratiate themselves with Trump. This is that on steroids. And the pattern is MGM invest

billions. Trump approves a massive chip shipment to the UAE weeks later. Binance facilitates the MGM deal. Trump pardons the Binance founder CZ despite having pleaded guilty to money laundering. Justin's son pours money into the Trump ecosystem. The SEC drops fraud charges. Bitmex founders are convicted. Trump pardons them.

3:19

So this is a system. These are not random, unrelated events. It's a presidency that's been turned into like a crypto rewards program. And the part that is terrifying to Trump is that it's all documented. Blockchain transactions for better or for worse are public and permanent. Pardons are public.

3:40

Government approvals are documented. Money in and favors going out over and over and over again. And so there is no doubt that if Democrats win the House in 2026, they get subpoena power. And so that means income, the full financial records from World Liberty Financial testimony from Trump's sons, from Steve Whitkoff and his son from the foreign investors, the documents about the UAE chip deal records related to the Binance pardon, an analysis of whether

4:11

Trump violated the emoluments clause, whether federal policy was rewritten to enrich Trump personally. And unlike prosecutors that Trump can pressure, Congress can't be fired. Congress can't be overruled. Congress can't be pardoned. Jamie Raskin could reopen every corruption thread and committees could subpoena attorneys

4:35

and advisors and agency heads. The blockchain analysts could trace every single dollar and Trump can't do a damn thing about it. The evidence doesn't disappear because crypto is permanent. And this is why Trump is desperate for Republicans to hold the House of Representatives not to pass bills and get stuff done.

4:53

Forget about that. He needs them to block investigations. Now, Senator Elizabeth Warren says that Trump's crypto dealings have created an unprecedented conflict where people can buy influence by directly enriching the sitting president. Yeah, that's exactly it.

5:09

And Senator Jeff Merkley said it's profoundly corrupt. Maxine Waters says it's the normalization of corruption. And this is the way it will go, because Trump cannot control Congress if Democrats win it. He can't stop the subpoenas. He can't pardon his sons if they lie to Congress. He can't hide documents because the block chain already recorded half the story.

5:34

And that's what Mike Johnson meant in this viral video when he said, if we lose the House, it's the end of the Trump administration. It's not the end through politics. It's the end through exposure and hearings and documents and testimony and simple math. If a fraction of the corruption that we currently suspect is proven in televised hearings, it's not just the end of Trump's presidency in terms of the ability to get anything done.

6:02

It's not just corruption being proven. It is not just embarrassment. It is, again, another potential cycle of criminal referrals, state charges against people which pardons don't help civil financial investigations, courts tracing every single dollar. Now, I am not naive. I don't believe any of this ends with Trump spending a single day in jail or prison, but

it can completely disable the administration from doing anything, humiliate Trump, who is increasingly concerned with legacy. And that is what Trump fears the most consequences. And that is what Trump fears the most consequences. And so the stakes for 26 are really high.
