Max Fischer Posted September 21 Posted September 21 Donald Trump cashed in on a massively corrupt foreign crypto deal—and no one blinked. https://newrepublic.com/post/200486/trump-corruption-scandal-crypto-uae-deal?utm_source=Bluesky&utm_campaign=SF_TNR&utm_medium=social The Times revealed that some officials in the Trump administration were wary about the chip deal due to UAE-China ties. But a key dissenter at the National Security Council, David Feith, was taken out of the equation when MAGA provocateur Laura Loomer questioned his (and five other NSC members’) loyalty, leading to their removal by the president. Silicon Valley investor David Sacks, Trump’s AI and crypto czar, then took a leading role in the negotiations—and received a White House ethics waiver in order to do so.
