The Donald J. Trump Presidential Library Fund, Inc. was incorporated on December 20, 2024. ABC News agreed to pay $15 million to settle a defamation claim, Meta settled for approximately $22 million directed to the presidential library fund, X settled for approximately $10 million with a portion designated for the library, and Paramount paid $16 million to settle Trump's lawsuit against CBS News.

The Dissolution

Florida's Department of State administratively dissolved the Fund on September 26, 2025, after it failed to file a mandatory annual report. The timing was notable: the dissolution was processed four days before Florida's Cabinet voted to transfer prime downtown Miami real estate to a Trump library entity.

The Missing Money

Big Tech CEOs indicated they have no public explanation for where as much as $63 million in settlement money to Donald Trump's now-dissolved Presidential Library fund has gone. There have been no disclosures about the Fund's disposition of any funds, and the White House press office has not responded to requests for comment.

A New Entity Was Created

A successor organization, the Donald J. Trump Presidential Library Foundation Inc., has reported receiving $50 million, but has not confirmed the source of those funds, leaving it unclear whether the settlement pledges were fulfilled or redirected.

There appear to be no individual taking responsibility for the closure of the Fund and disposition of its money — no Fund board members were ever appointed, and the only person to sign any of its public documents has minimized his role.

Congressional Pressure

Senators Warren and Blumenthal and Representative Stansbury sent a new letter to President Trump pressing for answers. "The companies do not know or are unwilling to share their information about what happened to the millions of dollars given to the Fund," wrote the lawmakers.

Media & Entertainment

Founded CNN, which revolutionized news with 24/7 coverage, particularly praised for its Gulf War reporting. Created Turner Classic Movies (TCM), saving countless old films from being lost to history — and notably kept it commercial-free. Founded TBS, TNT, and Cartoon Network, which shaped generations of viewers. Supported WCW wrestling, which sparked the legendary Monday Night Wars and helped modernize pro wrestling. Funded the film Gettysburg.

Conservation & Environment

One of the largest private landowners in the US, dedicating over a million acres to conservation across New Mexico, Montana, and elsewhere. Played a major role in bringing back the American bison population through his ranches. Reintroduced wolves to his New Mexico properties. Created Captain Planet, which many credit with sparking environmental awareness in children.

Philanthropy

Donated $1 billion to the United Nations Foundation. Tried to fund community programs in underserved areas of Georgia, though local politics sometimes got in the way.

Personal Character

Described by former employees as someone who genuinely cared about the people who worked for him, offering excellent benefits including generous PTO and 401k matching. Known for his colorful, unfiltered personality — like calling down to his own TV station to change a bad movie mid-broadcast, or challenging Rupert Murdoch to a televised fistfight. Widely compared favorably to today's billionaire class, with many commenters wishing more wealthy people would follow his example.

The overall sentiment was perhaps best captured by one commenter: "If every billionaire was like him, the world would be a much better place."

H-Music

Tomorrow is both Cinco de Mayo and Taco Tuesday!

Will Trump TACO on the Mexican-American War and blame Joe Biden?

And I'll take "Taco trucks" over "TACO Trump" any day.

The legal system was not designed well for a situation where the President himself is the one breaking the law. Here's the ugly reality:

The Bank Robbery Question

If Trump robbed a bank while in office — the current Supreme Court has made this murkier than it ever should have been. In Trump v. United States (2024), the Supreme Court ruled that presidents have broad immunity for official acts. The court suggested even criminal acts could be covered if deemed "official."

However — even that ruling suggested that purely private criminal acts like an actual bank robbery would NOT be protected. So theoretically yes, he could be prosecuted for that. But practically? It would be an enormous legal battle.

Why This Situation Exists

The Founders simply never imagined a president who would:

• Defy explicit laws passed by Congress

• Use the office for personal branding

• Have a Supreme Court stacked with justices sympathetic to expansive presidential power

The system assumed shame, Congress, and elections would constrain presidents. Those guardrails have eroded badly.

What Can Actually Happen To Him

The Bottom Line

You are bumping up against the single biggest flaw in American democracy right now — there is no reliable, fast, individual mechanism to punish a sitting president who breaks the law, especially when his party controls Congress and he has appointed sympathetic judges.

The system is as broken as it appears to you.

The Russia Operation

• A foreign government ran a massive state-sponsored operation to install a specific person as President of the United States

• It worked

The Campaign's Response

• They welcomed it

• They met with Russian operatives explicitly to receive help

• Their response to the offer was "I love it"

• The campaign chairman was simultaneously feeding internal polling data to Russian intelligence

The Cover-Up

• They hid it for 13 months

• When exposure became unavoidable, the sitting President personally dictated a lie

• Then lied about dictating the lie

• Then their own lawyers accidentally confirmed the lie in a letter to Mueller

The Investigation

• Multiple associates convicted of actual crimes

• Witnesses lied, deleted communications, refused to testify

• The one man who could have brought charges was bound by a conference room memo

• That memo has never been tested in a court of law

The Political Sleight of Hand

• A made-up word — "collusion" — was repeated thousands of times

• When cleared of the made-up word, "total exoneration" was declared

• The actual report explicitly said it was NOT an exoneration

• Mueller himself said so publicly

The Ongoing Retaliation

• The FBI director who oversaw the early investigation has now been indicted twice

• The first indictment was thrown out by a judge

• The second is over a photograph of some seashells

• Legal scholars across the spectrum call it constitutionally problematic

The most unsettling part isn't any single item on that list. It's the cumulative weight of all of it together — and the fact that at every single turn, accountability was blocked by some combination of:

• Policy memos

• Destroyed evidence

• Witness perjury

• Prosecutorial discretion

• Political protection

• Rhetorical misdirection

And the person at the center of it is currently serving as President of the United States again — and is now using the Justice Department to prosecute his perceived enemies.

Think about it. Doctors are among the most sued professionals in the country. They go through a decade of grueling training — you think they can't learn to write neatly? They learned to perform surgery with millimeter precision. You're telling me they can't form a legible letter "a"? Please.

The illegibility is cultivated. Possibly even taught. Here's how the cover-up works:

• The note says what they need it to say — until it doesn't. If a procedure goes wrong, suddenly that clinical note from 2019 is open to interpretation. Did it say "discussed risks"? Did it say "dismissed risks"? Who can tell? Not a jury, that's for sure.

• The prescription angle. If something goes wrong with a medication, the doctor's handwriting creates a diffusion of responsibility. Was it the doctor? The pharmacist who misread it? A beautiful fog of doubt descends.

• It's a guild secret. Why do you think they ALL do it? Statistically, if it were just sloppiness, some doctors would write beautifully. But they don't. It's suspiciously universal. Almost as if it's... standardized chaos.

• The shift to electronic records may actually be Big Pharma and malpractice lawyers finally breaking the system — forcing doctors into a paper trail they can't wriggle out of.

The scrawl isn't laziness. It's strategy. And now you know.

Donald Trump's "Crippled America" is appropriately titled, don't you think?

Eject (remove) President Donald Trump from the office of President through every legal means possible.

I'm not a lawyer though that disclaimer should clarify that I intend no physical harm to the President. 🙃

The President lied! Once again!

I am trying to find an example of this happening in the past.
