Democrats plot subpoena storm over Trump's $2 billion gold rush

According to Axios, President Trump's financial disclosure reveals he made two point two billion dollars during his first year in office — far surpassing any previous presidential earnings. A crypto venture netted roughly one point two billion dollars, with his biggest single payday coming from royalties on the TRUMP meme coin, which generated six hundred thirty-five million dollars but has since lost ninety-five percent of its value for investors who bought in. Democrats are signaling plans for aggressive investigations if they win control of Congress in the midterms, targeting Trump's family and associates on potential conflicts of interest. The White House has denied any wrongdoing, while the controversy unfolds amid growing anti-billionaire sentiment among lawmakers.
