Q1: Who is Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan?
Sheikh Tahnoon is the UAE's national security adviser and a member of the Abu Dhabi royal family. He is also a prominent businessman with investments in finance and technology.

Q2: What is World Liberty Financial?
World Liberty Financial ($WLFI) is a crypto project associated with the Trump family. It aims to launch a U.S. bank through its unit, World Liberty Trust, which has received conditional approval from the OCC.

Q3: What does the OCC's conditional approval mean?
The conditional approval allows World Liberty Trust to proceed with the bank charter process, but it must meet specific regulatory requirements before full approval is granted. This is a preliminary step and does not guarantee final authorization.

What could possibly go wrong for Main Street?

Well... they know he's an old man whose days are numbered... once he's dead... they don't have to honor anything... that's one way for the Arabs to get in the pocket of Americans.

Obligatory to understanding how DJT operates:

"Trump's mob connections
There's a reason why Trump's behavior is so "Mafia-like."

He still won't put up his own money? Does he really have any?

When the UAE signed onto the Abraham Accords you kind of knew that this was the type of people they either already were or someday wanted to be.

Hunter Biden: "When my dad was president, I didn't do any business. I sold paintings. I made an average of $225,000 a year.

Maher: Whatever you made it's pennies compared to what Don Jr. is making, I mean billions.

Hunter Biden: In the last 500 days of this administration, Don Jr's company has taken in over $3.4B in DOD contracts. He got a $640M loan by DOD. Jared gets paid over $100M in fees by the Saudis for a $6.5B fund that he controls which is all Gulf state money. It is absurd."

I'd care a whole lot more if it weren't for the fact that it's MAGA idiots falling for his bulls*&^ time and time again. F*&^ them.

The only thing I care about is his brazen corruption that, if our Republic survives, will most certainly result in significant controls being enacted on the executive and, hopefully, a resurgence in the power and quality of people elected to Congress.

Why put up his own when he can profit off of others taking the risk? Trump's lifelong MO has been profit while others take the risk and suffer the consequences. Unfortunately, there's so many idiots in our society now they allowed him to turn our treasury and country into the primary stakeholder in his schemes.
