Now let me tell you why I'm so fired up.
In his first year back in office, Donald Trump personally raked in more than $2 billion while working families struggle to keep up with rising prices.
More than $1.4 billion of it came from a crypto memecoin he launched days before his inauguration, and a venture called World Liberty Financial run by his own sons. He turned the office of the President of the United States into a personal ATM, and he didn't even try to hide it.
And it gets worse.
Just weeks ago, we learned that Trump and his Commerce Secretary negotiated a deal handing an American company access to one of the largest untapped tungsten reserves on earth — in Kazakhstan. The administration approved as much as $1.6 billion in federal financing to make it happen. Your tax dollars.
And then? Within weeks of the negotiations, a firm partly owned by Don Jr. and Eric Trump took a 20% stake in a company tied to that very same project.
Let me put that plainly: the President used your money to enrich his own sons. While more than 2 million Americans lost their health coverage. While hospitals and nursing homes were being defunded. While working families were told there just wasn't enough to go around.
There was plenty to go around. It just went to the Trumps.
This is the most corrupt administration in American history. It is not close.
And here's what makes me angriest of all: Corruption like this isn't just theft. It's the theft of opportunity itself. Because there is no equal opportunity if the game is rigged. When the powerful write the rules for themselves, working families don't get a fair shot — they get whatever scraps are left over after the well-connected have taken theirs.
That's exactly what Equal Opportunity Now was built to fight.
We know how to win. We've helped elect fighters who take on corruption, who champion honest government, who believe that public service means serving the public — not your own bank account. And we're building the bench of leaders who will do it up and down the ballot, in every corner of this country.
But we can't do it without you.
If you're in agreement that Washington corruption needs to stop, will you chip in $25 or $50 to Equal Opportunity Now right now?
