  Same old story, on a whole new scale. Donny Junior has a piece the numbers game on the east side, so the family makes sure the cops don’t come round asking too many questions…

  > Donald Trump Jr. Got A Kalshi Stake For Free— Now It Could Be Worth Billions As Prediction Market Platform Eyes $40 Billion Valuation > Kalshi handed him equity worth roughly $300,000 when he joined as a strategic adviser in early 2025. ... Kalshi granted him the stake when the company was valued at under $2 billion — less than a tenth of its $22 billion valuation in a funding round last month ... Um, how does a $300K stake at an "under $2 billion" valuation become "worth billions" with a 10-50x valuation increase? (Disclaimer: I'm not defending the Trump family in any way, the administration has been absurdly and blatantly corrupt.)

    The same way young Barron has $150m to his name? Through sheer corruption?

    Bidens nepotism was small scale. Donald Trump is burning down the country for his and his family’s wealth. You don’t have to support either

    Still beating the same dead horse, huh? The Trump family's corruption is on a whole new level, pretending otherwise is extremely disingenuous and bad faith. But what else would you expect from MAGA?
