#Schiff said that #trump has received ~$60 million in "big tech settlements" after suing big social media companies Meta, Twitter, and YouTube (he had been suspended from these platforms for "conduct related to the attack he incited on the Capitol"), then settling with the companies. "One by one, these companies paid up — to him personally and to his pet projects like the golden ballroom" via "creative accounting." Schiff called Trump's actions #extortion /3 #USA #USpol #corruption #PayToPlay

#Schiff said that #trump used the leverage that he had over the social media companies to "help or hurt their businesses" and extorted the social media companies "to the tune of $60 million." 👀 The cost of Trump's corruption with the social media companies to the American public is "more false claims, more false information, more social harms from an unregulated social media, and potentially more incitement of violence around our elections." /4 #USA #US #USpol #corruption #PayToPlay #extortion

#House speaker Mike Johnson transmitted the #bipartisan #housing #affordability bill to the WH Monday,…kicking off a 10-day countdown for the bill to become #law, even if #Trump doesn’t sign it. Trump remains undecided over whether he’ll sign it, saying after Johnson sent it to him that it was “so unimportant” compared with his efforts to secure a batshit overhaul of federal #elections. “Big deal,” Trump said of the legislation. “It’s a yawn.” #MafiaState #extortion https://www.cnn.com/2026/06/29/politics/mike-johnson-housing-bill-trump
