Major investigations into Trump begin, renewed 25th Amendment calls

House Democrats and other investigators have begun formal probes into actions of the Trump administration as they prepare to assume control of Congress in January. The New York Times reported that incoming House Democrats have alerted more than 60 companies, individuals and agencies that they are potential targets of those investigations and have sent preservation letters; separate posts say 36 federal agencies and private companies received similar notices. In Washington reporting and headlines this week the Department of Justice has been said to be pursuing a senator and President Trump has sidelined Senator JD Vance, according to contemporaneous accounts. President Trump, 80, responded with an early-morning Truth Social posting spree while watching Fox & Friends, including a false claim about donating his presidential salary and a threat to double tariffs on Mexico over migrant “caravans.” That posting spree prompted renewed public and some congressional calls to consider the 25th Amendment as a response to concerns about his conduct. With Democrats taking control of the House and Senate in January, investigators plan subpoenas, preservation demands and oversight that will target Trump, his family and senior officials.

Multiple reports stated that when Trump received his second briefing about Jensen Huang's affair with a Chinese spy, he did nothing. Turns out that is not true. Trump dumped a HUGE stake in NVIDIA stock. He didn't warn Huang. He didn't order investigations into national security risks.
