Eric Trump Boasts of $24M Pentagon Contract

politicsApr 24, 2026183,478

Eric Trump told Fox Business on Thursday that Foundation Future Industries, a robotics startup he is affiliated with, won a $24 million Pentagon contract. Eric Trump said he serves as the company's strategic advisor and that the award will fund robotics work for the Department of Defense. The contract has drawn criticism as a possible conflict of interest because of Eric Trump's family ties to former president Donald Trump and raises questions about political influence in federal contracting.

A lot of folks on the right owe Joe and Hunter Biden an immediate apology, or they better start calling out the huge conflict of interest in Trump’s sons profiting off government access: Donald Trump Jr., and Eric Trump. This is wild and in plain sight.

Maybe Dems should... subpoena the Trump family laptops?

Fox needs to be sued again

Hypocrisy is thy name ...

And there will never be an apology. Double standards are mother's milk to conservatives.

Every one of those grifters needs to locked the fuck up. #TrumpCrimeFamily

The Right could start by apologizing to Joe Biden for calling him "Sleepy," and to Hunter Biden for claiming that he profited from his father's name. Republicans are hypocritical, fascist, immoral, dishonest, and corrupt. people.com/donald-trump...

Glenn Harris7

None of the folks on the right are intelligent or moral enough to apologize to Joe and Hunter Biden. They are, on the other hand, stupid and immoral enough to applaud Trump's sons.

But Hunter's laptop! And Hilary's emails! And Joe's old age! Jingle those keys! Jingle jingle jingle!

Rules for thee but not for me. The hypocrisy with the GOP is astounding.

GOP is the party of hypocrites, period.

Cannot believe this man is still president of USA . Nothing and nobody there seems to be able to do anything to stop him . In years to come documentaries / books and movies will be made exposing his sheer corruption and people will be wondering how it was allowed happen and allowed continue .

Unfortunately, the maga cult wallow in hypocrisy like pigs in shit.

republicans are all projection, and every projection is a confession

ICYMI — Fox’s Maria Bartiromo congratulates Eric Trump for his company landing a $24 million Pentagon contract from a government run by his father. 🤔 Remind us what they said about Hunter Biden again? (From @atrupar.com )

The corruption is not only out in the open, it is being celebrated. So much for Hunter Biden's laptop.

Whirled Bizarre16

As it turns out, the Trump family is the real “Biden crime family”

Eric 🇺🇦 🇨🇦15

Just want to circle back and also ask whatever happened to that Qatari bank account Trump set up for Venezuelan oil money?

David Stone12

Maria Bartiromo is just so awful. I simply don't get how anyone could bear ten seconds with her.

Screaming Pika8

The media finally has gone completely over the rails.

WHAT was this thing called the HATCH ACT? What was that about NOT allowing the President to personally profit from his position? And didn’t that automatically extend to his immediate family? Just saying . . .

Jerry Thomas7

Pardon me, but I’d like to see Eric Trump’s laptop.

Joel 💙🇦🇺🇨🇦🇮🇨6

Bartiromo is just another fucked in the head MAGA asslicking fuckturd that is dumber than a box of rocks!

Betcha Maria has stock in this company betcha, betcha!

ACeRo5

Weren’t they outraged about Hunter Biden’s? Fox news was al over it. Congress spent years investigating.

James J.5

Without double standards, the MAGA-GOP wouldn’t have any standards at all.

tenderlee.bsky.social4

Remember when Jimmy Carter sold his peanut farm to avoid a conflict of interest? There's no comparison in Carter's integrity, and Trump's lack of.

🤘Patricia Lee, Publisher2

Oh hah. Yah see the difference is Eric doesn’t have a laptop. He uses a pencil.

Victoria Zunitch2

Poor Maria. What did she do to get herself held hostage like this?

"Practically no one in the Republican Party or the president’s entourage has spoken up in opposition to the contract, despite the obvious conflict of interest." They'll enrich themselves until the final gasp. And we will get it ALL back. Believe REAL prison time awaits them all.

HighlandWarrior5

Hunter Biden was a lightweight when it came to riding his name. The Trump boy's got it down pat. I don't pick on Ivanka because I KNOW she was groomed and fondled her entire childhood and teen years.

Gerald Glenn Saenz 🇺🇦4

We need a Trump Wing in a supermax prison to house every one of these treasonous bags of shit.

Phil Roberts4

He’s the stupid one. Indict the little prick

catlady49ers.bsky.social3

And he won’t pay any taxes on all this money. 🤬

oldwomaninshoe.bsky.social2

To be fair, I don’t think Trump knows Eric is his son, so it is questionable whether he’s is truly enriching the Trump family.

proton256.bsky.social2

Millions are no longer on the radar, small potatoes. Billions are the new norm in political graft. Watch out for our first Trillion dollar grifter. I'm sure it won't be long.

bluethru.bsky.social2

If Hunter Biden…. Oh, hell - the right wing republican fascists don’t care when their side does crime. They just lie about innocent people and celebrate the real criminals and grifters.

Eric Trump, the Bronny James of the financial world

Meanwhile, every #MAGAnut who wailed and gnashed their teeth over Hunter's "job" with Burisma Holdings, have absolutely no problem with this. In fact, they argue its proof of what a good businessman Eric is. 🤢 The hypocrisy is nauseating.
