5 Mio $ for a Big Mac. Well...

corrupt much. Don’t we have laws against monetizing the presidency. Are we still going to act like that 🍊💩 is above the law?

Bet he dribbles

When a POTUS charges for access, why not have the money go into a general fund for USA?🇺🇸

Power for sale!

We should be calling it what it is rampant corruption. Every level of Republican party is a corruption machine and Trump is taking bribes to exempt specific companies from being hit with the tariffs. Follow the money.

Honestly how desperate and gross can it get

Who could have thought old hotwired.com would become such a relevant medium? I do miss Jon Katz, Nicholas and Webmonkey simpler times.

Thank you. This is the reporting we need. I just subscribed.

People bow down and worship at the feet of the wealthy. Trump can't get enough adulation. Deeply insecure man with malicious behavior patterns.

Rather think that many would pay good money to avoid dining with Trump

isn’t there some law people used to talk about?

How is that legal?

... Anyone have a LIE Count from last nights Dictator Worship Service ???

Assume all that money to court grace and favour with the Mango Mussolini is going to charity cos it sure as shit can’t be legal to be going into an offshore fund for the orange twat?

Pathetic people.

Trump is open for bribes. Anytime, anywhere.

So where is this crypto getting THEIR funding?

It’s always been a Con……

Unfortunately he’s not on his own. People were paying upto 120k to fine with Boris Johnson and other PMs (Teresa May). Slightly more of a bargain basement price but still the same. Question is: What are they getting for that fee?

“Washington lectures others with scant inhibition about the preciousness of a so-called rules-based order but is ever more conspicuously unwilling to live by this order itself.” foreignpolicy.com/2024/05/31/t...

Yeah but I like dinner. I’m not gonna spend a million to ruin my lemon capellini with capers and thyme. Like listen to his shit? C’mon. What if there’s good bread involved? Whatever you ate by him would be forever ruined

It's a grift.

This shows that there is a way to get close to the the Mango Mussolini. Does anyone know how to get the Novichok stuff the Russians used to 'unalive' Sergei Skripal and his daughter? Asking for a friend.

Imagine what he gets for a pardon!

Not normal

Just shows how much money can be made sucking up to the President. They aren’t paying it because they like the smell of his aftershave

Nazi loot

The true meaning of DOGE…

And the devastating impact of DOGE cuts are already reverberating across the world. In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, without USAID, teams that would normally be racing to identify a fatal sickness are gone.

If America wanted free speech and democracy it could start by doing nothing, rather than actively backing coups, etc.

We know how petty this admin is we see retribution everyday from them

I assume this is the start of the little interruption and pain that America will face that Trump has referred to. Wait until it becomes deaths of citizens. C'mon people extrapolate.

He is a Russian Agent operating in the open and out courts allow it

This is really devastating. And the travel ban. And all the employees cuts. Can Elon just go away already!!!!

Staffers? More like looters.

Oh just wait it will get worse before it gets better! Maybe the maggots will wake up when they can’t afford food, gas to go to work, and lose their houses!

THE PEOPLE OF THE USA ARE BEING FINANCIALLY RAPED

@wired.com you all have done an incredible job reporting on all of this chaos and fraud. I purchased an annual subscription in hopes it supports your efforts! THANK YOU!!

Insurrectionist Trump will use this money to continue the lies and projection propaganda. He will also buy seats for Republicans. Crooked radical. Trump and Republicans are actually fascist as they display.

Paying millions to stall tariffs and protect the stock market.

PS James, Your head/face look sore. What happened?

Brazen corruption

This may be called a “bribe.”

It's their money.

There’s a farm next door. I can eat with a pig there for €1

I was thinking about The Great Depression this morning. A lot of rich guys became poor overnight and jumped off buildings. These guys may want to grab a freshman History book and read it

So do we need an in-service on how to act with a KING since we no longer use the presidency? They should at least give us some videos!

Good coverage. Thank you.

Last night, for one night only: secure.winred.com/trump-nation...

The Supreme Court legalized bribery last June.

Who pockets this money?

Paying for access -- this is democracy?? I'm not sure how this isn't an obvious problem to anyone seeing it.

HE'S BOUGHT AND PAID FOR....

Emoluments, Shamoluments

I love you! I'm so proud to have a subscription. Your journalism has met the moment in this time and is excellent.

What a surprise!

Opportunity.

Your reporting is excellent! @wired.com

How is this legal? Where is the rule of law and oversight? That's right they have been removed.

PEOPLE ARE PAYING TRUMP MILLIONS IN BRIBES, THEN WATCHING HIM EAT JUNK FOOD AS A BONUS. Fixed it.

Oligarchy

What’s new? We knew everything was for sale. Donald was always available for a buck or two. Just waiting until the invitation comes in Russian.

So revolting.

I’m planning to buy at least one carton of eggs this year. So I won’t be spending that money on a trip to Mar-a-Lago. Everyone will be making sacrifices this year. 🤦‍♀️

you guys have been KILLING IT! Great journalism.

a fool and their money are soon parted

Jake Lahut has a history of publishing lies from a source he admitted was not credible and then refusing to correct and/or retract. And it reflects poorly on Wired to continue publishing his reporting without reconciling his unethical history.

This is beyond sick. SMDH

They aren't paying to dine with Trump they are paying a bribe for something that they want. It's not a secret and he doesn't care since the supreme court said he couldn't be prosecuted for anything he does while in office

Another grift. He's for sale.

Lest there be any doubt that this admin can be bought

@threadreaderapp.bsky.social please unroll

If you’re not subscribing to WIRED yet, you should. This 🧵 shares all they have found out about DOGE and its impact that other primary sources haven’t come close to.

The Bond villain won, roll credits

Do we know where these $5M funds are going? And isn’t interesting that it is the same amount he’s stated for his Gold Card plan?

I would like to have dinner with Trump, but alone. After dinner, no one would recognize and distinguish the leftovers of Trump and from the food. 😂

Can we run a go fund me campaign to pay him to resign?

Pay to Play. The Office is for SALE. CHEAP.
