- gave $1M to Trump’s inauguration
- sponsored an inaugural party

1. The benefit of Trump's "shock and awe" approach to governance is that there is so much going on that brazen corruption goes virtually unnoticed.

Consider Coinbase. It was charged by the SEC in 2023 with violating numerous laws.

Now the SEC is dropping the lawsuit.

Why? FOLLOW THE MONEY

Earlier this year, Coinbase, a platform for trading cryptocurrency, was being sued for acting as an unregistered securities exchange.

Coinbase spent over $75 million during the last election, then donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration.

Then the SEC dropped its lawsuit.
April 8, 2025 at 5:29 PM
Reminder: In 2023, the SEC charged Coinbase with violating federal securities law.

Coinbase gave Trump over $76M, and listed and promoted his meme coin on their platform, and Trump’s SEC dismissed the lawsuit.

That’s not a coincidence, it’s corruption.
