Ventures launched by the Trump family since Donald Trump's reelection have generated at least $4 billion in proceeds and paper wealth for the Trump family. With investments across sectors like real estate, hospitality, media, cryptocurrency and more, the Trumps are "increasingly integrating their business empire" into the wider U.S. economy, says David Uberti, who has been reporting on the family's self-enrichment for The Wall Street Journal. The coupling of Trump's economic and political influence is raising major questions about conflicts of interest. "You have all of these different business interests in different areas in which the government regulates," and this "proximity to power may help along some of these deals and the valuations at which they're made."
We look at the Trumps' cryptocurrency venture World Liberty Financial and the Trump Organization's planned $6 billion merger with a firm hoping to build a nuclear fusion plant to power AI data centers with Uberti, who says such "very speculative, highly risky corners of financial markets" are key to the family's investment strategy.

Dustin Chambers/ ReutersA Georgia judge on Tuesday paused a last-minute rule adopted by Donald Trump's allies on the State Election Board requiring ballots to be counted by hand.
The judge wrote that introducing an unknown and untested rule at the "11th-and-one-half hour" affecting more than 7,500 poll workers was guaranteed to introduce "administrative chaos" that was "entirely inconsistent with the obligations of our boards of elections (and the State Election Board) to ensure that our elections are fair, legal and orderly."
The September 20 rule requires that after the polls close on Election Day, three poll officers must unseal and open each scanner ballot box and remove the paper ballots and sort them into stacks of 50 ballots to make sure the ballots match the figures recorded on the precinct poll pads, ballot marking devices, and scanner recap forms.
