Democrats ask what happened to millions earmarked for Trump’s library​

ABC, Meta, Paramount and X reportedly agreed to pay at least $63 million in settlements with the president. The original fund was dissolved last year.



“… But the Donald J. Trump Presidential Library Fund, Inc., which was set to receive at least some of the settlement funding, was administratively dissolved in September by Florida officials after it did not submit a mandatory annual report. Three months later, Jacob Roth, the lawyer who originally incorporated the fund, filed articles of dissolution, OpenSecrets first reported last year.

“Now it is unclear where this money has gone, exacerbating concerns about corruption that were apparent at the time of the settlement,” the lawmakers wrote.

Roth referred questions to his former firm, Dhillon Law Group, which did not immediately respond to an email about why the fund was dissolved.

… A second nonprofit, the Donald J. Trump Presidential Library Foundation, Inc., was created last year and reported in December that it received $50 million in contributions but has yet to confirm publicly that it took possession of the settlements.…”

Truly shocked.

No one has ever gone broke working under the assumption that MAGA is stupid and gullible.
 


“…
The veteran, Jordan G. Goudreau of Melbourne, Florida, was charged in 2024 with conspiracy to export military-style rifles, night vision devices, lasers, silencers and other military equipment without a license to Colombia, to be used for “activities in Venezuela.”

In a court filing this week, the Justice Department said that Mr. Goudreau had failed to appear at a bond hearing late in October. The woman responsible for his bond is a filmmaker named Jennifer Gatien, who made a documentary about his coup attempt called “Men of War.”


Mr. Goudreau hatched the plan to overthrow the Venezuelan government over the course of a year. Calling it “Operation Gideon,” he enlisted disaffected Venezuelan officials, though he did not personally participate in it. His company claimed it had entered into a $220 million deal with the Venezuelan opposition to overthrow Mr. Maduro.

The mission was swiftly quashed.

On May 3, 2020, two boats with 60 men departedfor Venezuela from Colombia. Eight men were killed by Venezuelan security forces. Thirteen were taken into Venezuelan custody, including two U.S. citizens, Green Berets who said Mr. Goudreau had recruited them.…”
