This shocking display follows Trump’s first impeachment in 2019 after he withheld military aid to pressure Ukraine into investigating his political rivals.
Now emboldened, Trump openly demands Ukraine’s rare earth minerals as “payment” while pushing for a ceasefire with Russia that would demolish Ukraine’s sovereignty.
Trump claims his new approach to international politics will bring peace and profit to America. The reality?
It will make the world more dangerous and make America even more vulnerable to corrupt oligarchs like Elon Musk.
Abandoning international order for Mafia-like rule risks $16 trillion worth of American business abroad and jeopardizes crucial military and intelligence partnerships worldwide – while the most corrupt men in the world stuff their pockets with our hard-earned money.
At the Dekleptocracy Project, we're dedicated to exposing these oligarchs and weaponizing transparency to break apart their fiefdoms.
Our world-class research exposes the dangerous implications of a "mafia-like" approach to global and American politics. We analyze complex geopolitical shifts and highlight the threats to America's long-term interests — all without allegiance to any political party or agenda.
This independence is our strength, but it's also why we rely on grassroots supporters like you to sustain our work. With our upcoming Research Hub, we will intensify our efforts to work with investigative journalists and those at the levers of power to put a stop to corruption locally, nationally, and abroad.
Uncovering it is the only way to stop it. The team at DKP are veterans of using anti-corruption as an offensive political tool against authoritarianism overseas, and we’re now dedicated to bringing that methodology and activism here. Anti-corruption is Trump’s soft underbelly, and we’re building deployable strategies for using it.
We are at a critical juncture, and February is a short month to reach our fundraising goal. To maintain our operations and continue building momentum, we are asking you to contribute a monthly or one-time donation of $25, $50, $100, $250, or whatever fits your budget today.
In this new era where longstanding alliances are under threat, our values are for sale and the liberal order is unraveling, giving way to unforeseen levels of corruption, your support is more crucial than ever.
Thank you for standing with us.
