The line on Trump’s filing that stopped me cold is 21.6: a licensing deal with something called “Celebration Coins,” worth $635,068,835 in royalties, from a company reporters can’t find a trace of. If there’s a voter in your life who needs to see that before November 3, send them a gift subscription. Or become a Founding Member and join my private strategy call after the election. $635 ,068,835 Yes, Trump Can Be Forced To Give The Money Back. Here’s How. His own form says $2.2 billion his first year back in office. Democrats have the tools, and 17 days to win them. Scott Dworkin Oct 17 Happy Saturday, thanks for joining me. The regime’s been pushing another lie that being president has cost Trump money. This edition uses his own signature to prove them wrong. Before you scroll, hit the ❤️ like button and restack—which shares it with everyone who follows you, so they hear the truth too. There are only 17 days left until the midterms, so we need all hands on deck. We’re digging into Trump’s Senate candidates and putting what we find in front of millions of voters every day in the states that decide this election. There’s no advertiser and no billionaire behind any of it, just readers like you who power our work. Join to help us keep up the fight today, and you’ll get exclusive morning midterm briefings from me starting October 27: Trump Signed The Proof He’s  Cashing In On October 1, Trump’s Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin told a rally in Durant, Oklahoma, that Trump’s losing money being president. “It’s cost him to be in office,” he said. PolitiFact rated it as a Pants on Fire lie. It doesn’t take much to find the truth. Every president has to file and sign off on financial disclosures. Trump’s came out on June 30, and by the New York Times’ count he brought in at least $2.2 billion in 2025, up from $622 million the year before. Most of it is thanks to his crypto deals. Line 21.6 of his own form lists a licensing deal with something called “Celebration Coins” that paid him $635,068,835 in royalties. I went looking and couldn’t find any trace of the company online. When a reporter brought up his profits in July, Trump said, “Well, you know why I’m profiting? Because the stock market is going up. Everybody is profiting.” Then he asked the reporter how their 401k was doing. Plenty of us don’t even have a 401k, and the ones who do sure didn’t get $635 million out of it. While our grocery bills kept climbing, the ethics watchdog CREW called 2025 “the most lucrative year of Trump’s life, by far.” If Democrats win the House, his own filings are where they start building the case to make him give it back. Trump is so arrogant he signed the evidence himself. Now we get to use it. Trump Hid The Receipts. They Came  Out Anyway. Four days before Trump was sworn in, a fund backed by UAE national security adviser Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed bought 49% of the Trump family’s crypto company for a whopping $500 million. That information wasn’t made public until a year later, when the Wall Street Journal reported that $187 million of the first payment went to Trump family companies. Just 10 months after the deal, the regime approved advanced Nvidia chips for an Abu Dhabi AI company chaired by the same sheikh. Crypto billionaire Justin Sun, who was charged with fraud by the SEC in 2023, bought $75 million of the Trump family’s tokens. In March, the SEC dropped its claims. An Abu Dhabi fund paid for a $2 billion stake in Binance with the Trump family’s own digital dollar. Weeks later, the SEC dropped its Binance case, and last October Trump pardoned its founder. Companies tied to Trump’s sons’ investment firms have pulled in $3.2 billion in federal awards. The list goes on forever. This is only what we know. Imagine what we don’t. Trump’s for sale and everybody knows it. If Democrats take the House, those companies can expect subpoenas. So should the entire Trump regime. Democrats Refuse To Rubber-Stamp  Trump’s Loophole It’s a crime for most government employees to make money off of their position. A park ranger or an Army lieutenant could go to prison for it. The president is exempt, and Trump clearly noticed. He launched his own crypto coin just three days before he was sworn in—and his latest filing shows he’s still holding 15.75 billion World Liberty Financial tokens. Sen. Jeff Merkley wrote a bill that would ban presidents, members of Congress, top officials, and their spouses from launching or endorsing crypto—but Republicans have buried it since May of 2025. In May of this year, Sen. Chris Van Hollen tried to add a similar ban to the crypto bill Trump wants, and all 13 Republicans on the committee voted no. Then Republicans wrote their own “ethics” rule which only bans new coins. That would allow the 15.75 billion tokens Trump owns to stay put. Sen. Richard Blumenthal called it “a charade” and “a sham.” Democrats didn’t give it one vote, and on September 15 the bill failed to make it to the Senate floor. Republicans are guarding Trump’s piggy bank, but they can’t pass a thing without Democrats. Win the Senate, and Sen. Elizabeth Warren is next in line to run the committee that writes the crypto rules. Give It Back. Every Dime. I think Trump should hand back every dollar he makes cashing in on the presidency. During Trump’s first term, three lawsuits accused him of taking government money through his businesses. A court threw one out on a technicality, while the Supreme Court dropped the others five days after he left office. They said it didn’t matter anymore because he was no longer president. This time, Democrats have the tools. If they win the House, Rep. Jamie Raskin would be running the committee that keeps watch over the DOJ. He said his “No. 1” focus would be on bribery and kickbacks, as well as “disgorgement and restitution to the American people.” That means making Trump pay back what he took. If Democrats flip the House, Rep. Robert Garcia would run the main investigating committee in the House. He said he’s going after “the president’s sons and the president and the family.” In the Senate, Minority Leader Chuck Schumer has a bill that would let each state’s top lawyer take a crooked president to court to claw back the money he made off the job. Trump is betting we’ll see that he raked in $2 billion while our bills went up, then shrug and stay home. He’s betting against the wrong people. We’ve been fighting him for a decade, and we’ve never been stronger. Every day until November 3, we dig up what Trump’s Republicans running for Congress are hiding, and we put it in front of millions of voters in the races that will decide who wins. No advertiser pays for it, and no billionaire ever will. This amazing community does. That’s why nobody can tell me to go easy on Trump.

JUST A FEW OF MANY COMMENTS:  Thank you Scott!👍💙🙏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊 Michael’s Substack2h I want ALL the above, "Because Justice...Matters!" Thank you for writing such well worded letters. Have sent them all and posted to Facebook. Still waiting to be thrown into Facebook jail for posting everything against Trump et al. He signed the form. $2.2 billion. The law that covers every other federal employee does not cover him. The tools to claw it back only open if the House or Senate flips. Seventeen days. Tim’s Newsletter1h Vote Blue!! What fresh ....?3h We must show up on 11/3 in such numbers and create a result that sends an unmistakeable message to the right and left that this must end. “It is not light that we need, but fire; it is not the gentle shower, but thunder. We need the storm, the whirlwind, and the earthquake.” - Frederick Douglass Move. The. Earth. On. Election. Day. Mary’s Substack3h Help get out the vote.! "No Kings vote early"in every State today. Going to The Woodlands Tx one today. We must Al! Thank you! At Trump’s age and in his current observably poor state of health, and sadly for all of us who want to see him face accountability…the first thing that he gives up will likely be this mortal coil. Still plenty of targets though, we must claw back the ill-gotten gains from the entire family and “associates” and imprison those who broke the law to enjoy those gains. Orange jumpsuits all around! Followed by such treats as disbarment of Blanche , punishment of Hegseth, a smackdown for Markywayne, political obscurity for Vance and Rubio..a cornucopia of pleasures! Don't forget Kash Patel! He needs a good "smackdown" as well! There is an office in the Treasury Department that has been a powerful tool for fighting corruption. Not surprisingly, its staff has been reduced by the Trump administration. In a perfect world, the Democrats would put together its own version of FINCEN and start mapping all the tentacles of Trump's corruption. "FinCEN—the U.S. Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network—works to detect and deter money laundering, terrorist financing, and other financial crimes. It gathers and analyzes financial data, shares intelligence with law-enforcement and other partners, and administers the Bank Secrecy Act. Its authorities include issuing regulations, overseeing compliance, and assessing penalties for violations." Secondly I think it’s about time for Medicare for all!!! With the money Trump stole it’s almost biblical! Theodora’s Substack3hEdited 🗄️ I want 🍊to release all the Epstein files! Justice for the victims. 🗳️ I’m voting on October 22, the first day of early voting in Delaware. I checked my registration, I know what’s on the ballot, I know where to go, and my husband is going with me. I want Trump to give back the white house. It is going to take a long time to get rid of all the God horrible gold and all the damage he has done. I want to see it restored to its original grandeur. We are going to take back the Congress and Senate. This will all be done legally. However with Musk throwing himself in to the election process, we can be that he is doing what he can to meddle with the voting system. All Democrats need to use their voices to shout against this illegal maneuvering. We need to make certain after the election that the results are correct. We have been fighting so hard to get to the polling stations. We need to make sure that no one has meddled illegally with the results. Anne’s Substack3h What would I choose? Take his NAME off everything! YES! NO ONE WANTS TO BE REMINDED OF THE ORANGE TURD AND THE DAMAGE AND HATE HE'S CAUSED!  Let's remember this DIM WIT and his incompetents in HISTORY BOOKS like a BAD MISTAKE!  The BOOB is so stupid...went to VERSAILLES woke up to the age and monuments of FRANCE's historical failures of MONARCHY RULE that the FOUNDERS of the AMERICAN NATION carefully protected up from....  The FOUNDERS of our nation built a DEMOCRACY, not what others pretend.  Right on 👍 Scott!! I absolutely love reading your news every morning!! You are running the civilian force of good journalism. Not only the CHEAP GOLD CRAP, but the tasteless ROSE GARDEN DESTRUCTION needs to be restored for what it was - a remembrance of FIRST LADIES - the ones who had CLASS! Not MALARIA!  ALL the CRAP and destruction from the ORANGE TURDS 'events' !  Who could imagine the desecration of the  WHITE HOUSE with WRESTLING? Who is STUPIDER? The ORANGE TURD or the sponsors of the events?  HOW UN-AMERICAN and DISRESPECTFUL can they be? Not sure about what to give back first; but I think that the money should be used to demolish the ballroom & rebuild the East Wing. I think the first subpoena should go to someone they'd least expect - how about Rollins or that Secretary of Education (can't come up with her name at the moment)? Or maybe Pam Bondi? Now she might have some stories to tell ... and maybe an ax to grind ... I’d also like to see him to be required to reimburse the government for all the retaliatory prosecutions and illegal EO’s he launched. He’s cost our government millions in the cost to DOJ as well as defending the suits for things like trying to rescind birthright citizenship. America’s good name. Good! I hope he loses every dollar Fishback can be heinous but this gave me hope that some of his followers will vote blue… “But now Fishback says many of his supporters are considering crossing party lines and voting for Democratic David Jolly. “Fishback for Jolly is real,” he told USA TODAY Network-Florida. Some Fishback supporters even posted on social media a flattering AI meme's of Jolly.” “Then the America First candidate put the cherry on top of the sundae by saying he would attend Black Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Angie Nixon’s campaign event in Melbourne on Oct. 17 with progressive torchbearer U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders.” “I may disagree with them, but they’ve tapped into something, and I want to see it for myself,” he said. https://www.floridatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2026/10/16/some-james-fishback-supporters-crossing-lines-to-vote-for-david-jolly-florida-governor-race/92271027007/ He needs to pay it ALL BACK What would I want him to give back? The decade of my life that has been invaded and polluted by his presence in the world. I've gotten good at filtering him out, especially where it comes to preserving the sanctity of my home, but he's president of the United States and impossible to completely ignore no matter what defenses we construct. (For New Yorkers, I am sure that it's more than a decade.) YES  JIMMY BRESLIN and THE NEW YORK DAILY NEWS could not have written more about tRump the CON ARTIST, RACIST, LIAR, CHEAT, MISOGYNIST, ROY COHN CLONE!  Read ROY COHN history, JOE MCCARTHY agent ...likely got ROSENBERG's executed based on LIES. Not to be confused by the MURDOCH RAG: NEW YORK POST! Let's not forget that FLUNKY Rudy GHOULiani created his media image by prosecuting 'MAFIA' and ignored RUSSIAN ORGANIZED CRIME. NEW YORKERS did not ignore GHOULiani's ZIPPER PROBLEM!  The very first thing would be to rescind every pardon of every convicted criminal he cut loose. And make them all talk. That is a fantastic idea, if it could only happen A few years ago my long-time postman retired. I gave him a $25 Lowes gift card for his honey-do list. He returned it saying that it would be unethical for him to accept it. I want trump to be forced to meet the ethical standards of my postman. As for wishes, I'd like Drumpf to be forced to rebuild the White House as it was before his vandalism. And to be forced to plant as many trees as he cut down in East Potomac Park. And be forced to remove all the tacky gew-gaws he's pasted on everything. Although he probably won't be tried or jailed for anything he's done, thanks to SCROTUS. Impeachments of Justices Alito and Thomas should be one of the 1st items on the new Congress' agenda. The Fact And Just The Facts GALE’s Substack3h There will be hell to pay if the Democrats don’t purge the greedy from government, reinstate and tighten government watch dogs on corporations, politicians and private citizens and reinstall taxes on billionaires and corporations, which can give us universal healthcare and revitalize our schools. We must go back to before Reagan started dismantling our social democracy. Homeless mental patients? Reagan stopped funding our mental health treatment and living areas. IF Democrats don’t start to show real commitment to giving back to the people who voted for them, they’ll be tossed out in a future election like MAGATS are going to be this election. WATCH AND LEARN before a new party comes to exploit your weaknesses. Toughen up! Q1: If Trump had to give back one thing first, what would you choose? A1: Obviously, the presidency. Or immunity, or every gift he received and every cent he made in defiance of the emolument clause. Stripping him of his power and obscene amounts of money would be DJT's worst nightmare. Q2: What’s the first subpoena you want to see signed if Democrats win back either chamber? A2: That’s a tough question to answer since there are so many who need to testify. Hegseth, Patel, and Miller are the most dangerous. Then Kushner, Lutnick, Johnson, his sons, and everyone appointed to DJT’s cabinet because, with the right "incentive", they might be easily turned. But because Susie Wiles, Chief of Staff, may have her head on the chopping block, she might be someone to start with and would be willing to spill all the beans if offered immunity. Today’s Report tells us how ugly Trump is in every aspect of his life. Equally mysterious is why Americans voted for him. He can’t be gone soon enough. The first thing I would want him to give back is the presidency by resigning. Happy No Kings Day! Thank you Scott! With Trump all you have to do is follow the money. I pray everyday that the WHOLE TRUMP administration go to jail. For treason and for their corruption. There is NO STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS for WAR CRIMES....such as BOMBING BOATS is the CARIBBEAN or PACIFIC or much else.... REMEMBER THE NUREMBERG TRIALS: FOLLOWING ORDERS IS NOT AN EXCUSE! A Stillness in the Wind2h I'm afraid "we the people" needed the Trump lesson to show us that our political system (democracy) and our economic system (capitalism, more or less) run on separate tracks -- and that the economic system, if unregulated, can subvert and even destroy the political one. In our two-party system, one of the two parties is now blatantly anti-democratic. Who we gonna call?? Obviously it's up to us. After we've voted, we can't just go home, kick our shoes off, and relax in front of the TV. Todd Blanche knows where the bodies are buried. He has decimated the DOJ and abused the law for Trump so he might be a good place to start. I doubt we’ll ever get any of the money he has confiscated for America. Thank you CORRUPTJOHNROBERTS Michigan law requires backup paper ballots. If there is even a sniff of hanky panky, the DNC must demand and pay if necessary, a recount especially in other States like Michigan where the Senate seats are in close contention. YES! Let's stop the PROPRAGANDA and BULLS**T! You vote on a PAPER BALLOT that is SAVED.... VOTING MACHINES count MARKS....sometimes VOTERS don't MARK appropriately...which accounts to small changes/mismarks on BALLOT COUNTS.... GALE’s Substack5h There will be hell to pay if the Democrats don’t purge the greedy from government, reinstate and tighten government watch dogs on corporations, politicians and private citizens and reinstall taxes on billionaires and corporations, which can give us universal healthcare and revitalize our schools.

In AMERICA AMERICA by STEVEN BESCHLOSS, the FOX NEWS = FAKE NEWS poll was included...  excerpt: The joke is that Katie Zacharia’s exit as White House Press Secretary after five days is barely half a Scaramucci. (Recall that Anthony Scaramucci lasted just 11 days as Trump communications director back in 2017.) You would be right to think that her rise and fall is a story of incompetence—both hers and the people who hired her. I would also suggest it’s another example of the gargantuan levels of corruption of Donald Trump and his so-called government: Zacharia was barely vetted (no one questioned her claims that she was a lawyer?), she wasn’t given the time to prepare for her first press conference, she was clearly plucked for the job because she is a Trump sycophant and an Ivanka-lookalike rather than an outstanding communications professional. A Fox News poll released this week offers a powerful indictment of the Trump regime. When voters were asked about what issues they were “extremely” or “very” concerned about, corruption in government topped the list. In fact, a massive 88 percent said they were either extremely or very concerned about it. That’s Fox News, not typically the outlet you would expect to provide information that gives an honest appraisal of the current occupants of our White House. (The poll’s respondents self-identified as Democrats and Republicans in roughly equal measure: 43 percent and 41 percent.) But there it is: As we approach the midterms, we can be encouraged to know that voters are grasping the reality of the sickening scale of corruption—and they’re mad as hell about it. What were the other top issues that these voters were concerned about? Inflation and high prices (85 percent), gas prices (83 percent), healthcare (80 percent), government leadership (79 percent), the war in Iran (75 percent) and crime (73 percent). Fox noted in its report that “Democrats lead on 10 out of 13 issue concerns,” as well as this encouraging morsel: “If the election were today, 54% of voters say they would back the Democratic candidate in their House district and 45% would support the Republican. That is outside the margin of error.”
