The Daily Beast Latest Articles | Grim Discovery After U.S. Tourist Vanishes on Vacation by Harry Thompson

Transportation authorities have opened a probe into the customized $108 million Boeing 737 MAX‑8 jet that Donald Trump appropriated from former South Dakota governor Kristi Noem and turned over to the First Lady; the aircraft, outfitted with a luxury boudoir, shower‑sauna, bar and kitchen, was transferred by the Department of Homeland Security from Daedalus Aviation to CSI Aviation after Trump dismissed Noem, but CSI failed to file the required paperwork to enter the restricted Washington, D.C., airspace, prompting DHS staff to scramble and the incident to be referred to the Transportation Security Administration for further investigation, all amid a broader DHS inspector‑general and congressional probe into deals involving Noem, her alleged aide Corey Lewandowski, and Daedalus’ parent company Salus Worldwide Solutions.

The New Republic | Trump Has Made Bank Off Stocks From Companies With Federal Contracts by Edith Olmsted
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
Donald Trump has reportedly profited from millions of dollars in stock trades involving tech firms and government contractors that benefit from federal contracts, including Nvidia, AMD, Palantir, and others, according to a financial disclosure cited by NOTUS. The filing shows he bought sizable positions in Nvidia in early February and January 2026—coinciding with the company’s AI chip deals with Meta and subsequent approvals for sales to China—while also purchasing AMD stock that was later cleared for Chinese customers, and repeatedly buying and selling Palantir shares around large Department of Homeland Security contracts and his own public calls for investors to buy the stock. In the first quarter of 2026, Trump shifted from bonds to more than 3,600 individual trades, prompting the White House to claim his family was unaware of the transactions, a stance critics denounce as blatant corruption and market manipulation by the president who oversees the very agencies awarding these contracts.

The Daily Beast Latest Articles | Trump Chaos Fuels Massive Gold Rush for Scammers by Tom Latchem
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
Donald Trump’s intensified immigration enforcement has sparked a surge of fraud targeting terrified migrants, with Federal Trade Commission complaints nearly doubling—from about 960 per year before the November 2024 election to almost 2,000 in 2025—and more than $94.4 million allegedly stolen in the past five years, a figure likely under‑reported. ProPublica’s investigation details several victims, including Nicaraguan asylum‑seeker Jasmir Urbina, who was duped by a fake “Catholic Charities” lawyer and lost nearly $10,000 before being detained and deported; El Salvadorian leather‑worker José Aguilar, who surrendered $15,000 to scammers posing as a Miami immigration attorney; and Honduran mother‑of‑three Mariela, ripped off of over $18,000 by a ring masquerading as a priest, judge, and Texas lawyer. Scammers increasingly employ AI‑generated avatars and polished social‑media ads to appear legitimate, prompting DHS to declare an “all‑out war on immigration fraud,” though the White House declined comment.

Times of India | $20,000 for a Green Card: California man posed as ICE officer and scammed immigrants seeking US citizenship
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
A 55‑year‑old California man, Davyd George Brand Jimenez, admitted in federal court that he pretended to be a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer and a Department of Homeland Security official in order to swindle undocumented Latino immigrants out of $10,000‑$20,000 each, promising fake work permits, legal residency, citizenship and green cards. He created forged documents bearing false government seals, even producing a fabricated “stay of deportation” order, but never filed any legitimate immigration applications. Jimenez pleaded guilty to ten counts of falsely impersonating a federal officer, along with mail fraud, wire fraud, identity theft and illegal use of government emblems; he faces up to 117 years in prison, a $4 million fine and must repay more than $152 000 to at least 25 victims at sentencing scheduled for July 16. The scheme left dozens of victims penniless and without any immigration benefits, illustrating a broader pattern of fraud targeting vulnerable immigrant communities.
