All right, everybody, this should be one of the hottest stories in the world right now, but I'm afraid there's so much political corruption going on every single day that most people are missing this one. Donald Trump, the son of U.S. President Donald Trump, recently had a wedding on a private island, and we just learned from ProPublica that that wedding was largely funded by a Russian oligarch named Umar Kremlev. Kremlin funded a few nights of this wedding,

despite him being a known child trafficking. in Russia, like Ukraine has him sanctioned because this guy runs an organization that traffics children out of Ukraine. He is one of Vladimir Putin's best friends, Vladimir Putin, of course, being the war criminal president of Russia that is currently waging war on Ukraine. And on top of all of that, he seems to be a good friend of Don Jr. Umar Kremlev, the child trafficking, Putin-loving friend of Donald Trump Jr. was funding part of the wedding. Let me jump into this because this story has gotten way crazier. Don Jr's wife has responded, but then the Trump family contradicted Don Jr.'s

by saying they don't know the guy, even though the wife said that this was one of their close friends, let's break all of this down, starting off with the ProPublica article that started this all. I will link it in the description. And as always, make sure you drop a like. Make sure you subscribe to the Adam Walker feed. I'm on day two of my two-month New York stay. I'm going to be here doing more media, more debates, more videos, all for you guys. So subscribe to not miss anything.

And let's just start here. In May, Donald Trump Jr. had a wedding on a pair of private islands. Can you spot the Russian oligarch right here? Well, he's slightly hidden, but if you zoom in in the right way, this man's role has been a secret until now. That is Umar Kremlin. That's him, all the way in the back. He's the head of the International Boxing Association, a scandal-plagued sports group that has been financed by the Russian state-owned energy giant Gazprom.

Kremlin spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to rent out a private island and cover other big-ticket items like the fireworks show, according to records and people familiar with the event. The payments came from an entity in Dubai affiliated with his boxing association. Trump Jr. and his bride, Bettina Anderson, had their first dance on the island rented by Kremlev. If you guys don't see what's happening here, then holy absolute shit. After four years of the Biden family being relentlessly attacked, they said that Hunter-Bes, Biden was, you know, taking money from Ukraine. Biden himself was in cahoots with China. None of this was ever proven, by the way. But now we have actual evidence that Donald Trump Jr. had part of his wedding bankrolled by one of Putin's best buddies. And yet they think it was out of the

charity of Kremlin's heart. Do you think Kremlin is just such a nice guy? He was like, you know what? I think that Don Jr. deserves a great wedding. I'm going to give a lot of my oligarchal money over to Don Jr. and his wedding because he just deserves it and I'm a nice guy. Hell no. Kremlin sees an opening. Putin probably ordered this. He probably said you can manipulate, get close with the Trump family, and act like their friend if you just pay for part of their wedding, get in their inner circle, and push them towards being softer on Russia. And guess what? The Trump administration is incredibly soft on Russia. So Trump Jr. and his bride had their first dance on the island rented by the Russian oligarch. That is a, it's just crazy leverage. Like, if I had the first dance with my newly

wed wife and some Russian oligarch were funding the entire event, it directly shows you how the Russian oligarch can then use that as leverage, pull that exact same string. Like, come on, you can trust me. I watched you and your wife have your first dance. You can trust me. We should just keep bombing Ukraine, is what the Russian oligarch is going to say. But to continue, The company that put on the Kremlin-funded fireworks displays charges around $70,000 for such shows. So why did Kremlin invest so much money in Trump Jr's wedding? It's not clear. The men have only met recently, and I don't know, why?

Why would he? Well, to me, it is very, very clear. It is a direct route of access to Donald Trump, to the Trump family. And, guys, we've seen this happen all over the administration. Don Jr. and Eric Trump investing in defense companies that Donald Trump, Trump then directly gives contracts to. Or how about this? Andrew and Tristan Tate were in trouble in Romania back in 2025 and they lobbied two members of the Trump family, Baron Trump, Eric Trump, Don Jr., Paul and Grasia, people in the Trump orbit were lobbied by the Tate brothers.

The point that I'm making is Trump is so corrupt and so pay to play that if you can just find some way to get backdoor access to a family member, you can literally affect his foreign policy. You can change the way American foreign policy works if you just cleverly get into Donald Trump Jr.'s orbit. Quote, if I'm paying for your wedding, at some point, you're going to owe me something, said Frank Montoya, a retired FBI official who held senior counterintelligence roles. This should be unthinkable for the son of the president. End of story. That is really well put from a retired FBI official. He's saying that if somebody pays for your wedding, the implication is that you kind of owe them something down the road. So what does Don Jr. owe this guy? Well, a spokesman for Trump Jr.

did not dispute the wedding payments came from Kremlev, calling him a personal friend of Don. The rep said there is no business relationship, but then a spokesperson for Eric Trump, who also attended the wedding, said of Kremlin, quote, Eric has absolutely no clue who this person is, nor has he ever heard his name. That, I find to be kind of eerie. So again, this isn't some like good friend that they've known for a while. This is an insidious Russian oligarch who is friends with Putin and who abducts children slipping his way into Don Jr's orbit without Eric Trump apparently even noticing. I mean, he's probably lying.

He probably does know who the guy is. But then the wife of Don Jr. posted a lengthy Instagram caption responding to the report that the Russian oligarch paid for over $170,000 of the wedding. Here's the problem. She doesn't actually contest the reporting. She doesn't deny the reporting. In fact, she seems to confirm it all. So Batina Trump says,

apparently our wedding is making headlines again, so a little clarity seems in order. Don and I got married privately on Friday, surrounded only by our family. It was intimate, deeply personal, and one of the most beautiful days of our lives. The weekend that followed had actually been planned well in advance

as a fun weekend with friends. It was never intended to be our wedding weekend. When our original wedding plans changed, we simply decided to get married before it and arrived at an already planned weekend as newlyweds. Okay. The difference without the distinction. Our dear friend, Umar, very generously hosted two incredible nights of celebrations for us after our wedding. It was an extraordinarily generous wedding gift from a friend and something for which we will remain incredibly grateful. It's unfortunate that something so personal and happy can be recast as something political or something political, or something we will remain incredibly grateful.

sinister simply because of someone who someone is or where they come from. Okay, really quickly. I never want to hear a Trump try to say, oh, why are we talking about where somebody's coming from? Dude, your dad's entire political career was built off of denying that Obama came from the United States and said he was born somewhere else. So first of all, you can stop with that, Batina Trump. Second of all, this gives away the game. Batina, who isn't very involved in the political world, seems to naively think that her and Don Jr. just have a very good new friend. This guy is genuinely just a friend with them. Well, guess what? That's what manipulation is.

That is how manipulation works. He is not just a friend giving you a wedding gift. He is trying to get something from the president's son and from the president himself. Also, she does this whole weird thing where she denies that it was actually her wedding, but then she admits that it actually was her wedding weekend and this was a wedding gift. So it is a wedding gift where he is paying for part of your wedding weekend. You could have just said that in the first place. I don't know who the hell advised Batina Trump to release such a dumb statement that just confirms everything pro-publica alleged.

She confirms it all right there and then naively says because he's a good friend, it's not actually a bad thing. Well, Eric Trump then kind of contradicts them. So Batina Trump, Don Jr's wife, defends having a Putin ally finance, part of their wedding trip by saying he was simply, quote, our dear friend. He's just a dear friend of ours. Well, he's such a dear friend that Eric Trump's rep told ProPublica, quote, Eric has absolutely no clue who this person is, nor has never heard his name. Okay. So there's clearly some lying going on here. Either he's not that good of a friend and he just slipped his way into your circle to manipulate you guys, or he is a good friend and that's even scarier because

you're friends with a Russian oligarch who traffics children. Okay. To continue, Cash Patel, the director of the FBI, is currently testifying in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and he was asked about these very reports by Blumenthal. He told Blumenthal he's unaware and that the reporting is inaccurate. I guess my question is, how is the reporting inaccurate if we have Don Jr.'s wife admitting that they are friends with a Russian oligarch? This individual, Umar Kremlin, has direct ties to Vladimir Putin.

It would seem an effort to curry favor with the president's family. It may involve some intelligence degradation. And I would like to know what steps you are taking to investigate. I'm not sure what public reporting you're referring to. The only thing I can tell you is that the counter espionage arrests by this FBI are up 53% including from Russia. We've arrested more espionage actors in these last 18 months than any 18-month period in the FBI history and will continue to investigate. Well, these reports were public yesterday. They've been widely publicized in the press,

and it would seem to me that they should be a topic of investigation for the FBI. You have a counterintelligence mission. This individual has been involved, in fact, in the re-education of you. Maybe I'm still in my debate brain, but I feel like this would be a really good time to directly ask Cash Patel a question. Like, hey, do you think it's okay that the president's family is directly becoming friends with Putin's allies? Do you think it's okay for this to happen? Like, there's a direct question that you can ask in this moment where Cash Patel wouldn't have a good answer at all. But I digress me. In my trips to Ukraine, I've done it 11 times.

I've talked to many of those children who've been abducted by Putin's forces. This individual apparently is involved in those activities, but also is directly tied to Putin and in intelligence and also the possibility of improper influence. As I stated, we are fulfilling our counterintelligence and espionage mission greater than any FBI has ever done so. I want to know what specific steps you're doing to investigate this instance. First of all, you're referring to something that happened yesterday. yesterday in public reporting. And public reporting generally is inaccurate. And so what the men and women of the FBI will do,

as we do in every case, is we will look at whatever information comes our way and analyze it. The involvement of this individual in bankrolling the wedding in substantial amounts of money has apparently been confirmed by the family. You're unaware of those reports? I don't track public reporting from yesterday for preparation in this human Bro, oh my God. Oh my God, this is the exact same thing that happened in that C.J. Pearson debate. Did you guys see that on stage a few days ago where he wouldn't answer any of my questions? I guess he learned it from members of the Trump administration who, again, refused to answer any of these questions. That was inferiorating, and I'm not sure our FBI director is keeping us very safe.

Shouldn't we want to know if an adversarial country is trying to get into the minds of the president's family? We should want to know that. So Tim Miller points out Kremlev, 43, is also involved, in an organization called Healthy Fatherland, run by his 23-year-old wife's twin sister. The group, which promotes healthy eating and youth sports, is under Ukrainian sanctions for its alleged role in the program of abducting Ukrainian children in relocating them under the guise of rehabilitation. Remember, tens of thousands of Ukrainian children have disappeared or been kidnapped by Russia since the beginning of this war under the guise of rehabilitation. It's actually just torture and kidnapping.

And Kremlin seems to be leading the way in that. He seems to be one of the people leading the way. Park points out a minor, but perhaps interesting note on Don Jr. in the birthday celebration, courtesy of dear friend Umar. The ProPublica report says that while longtime friends of Don Jr. were not invited, he did bring his closest business partners from 1789 Capitol. Presumably, that includes his 1789 partner reported Omid Malik. It's a very close friend of Don Jr. Omid Malik.

Here are transcripts of Don Jr. and Omead Malik's remarks on Russia, Ukraine at the Doha Forum last December. Bro, why is Don Jr. giving his opinion on Russia, Ukraine? I don't care about the opinion of the president's son on Russia, Ukraine, genuinely. I would say the same thing if it's Hunter Biden. Hunter Biden and Don Jr. are free to have opinions, but why is Don Jr. on stage at the Doha Forum talking about U.S. foreign policy? So Malik proposed a reverse Kissinger where we ally with Russia against China while Don Jr. said that the Ukrainian leadership is no different than Putin and that it's sending their peasant class to die for nothing. This is so incredibly despicable to me. These people don't care about America. They don't care about Americans standing on the global stage or safety. They don't care about taxpayers or working Americans. In fact, they would screw over working Americans a second they'd cut.

could, and they do. Check out this. U.S. military helicopters were taking Eric Trump and his kids on joy rides around Ireland. But don't worry, us taxpayers have got it. Don't worry. Us taxpayers have the bill for their joy rides around Ireland. This is Eric Trump and his children, you know, just enjoy themselves. Pretty cool. How about this one right here? So they then brought the Katari plane, the real Air Force one, and the Trump-branded plane. And the Trump-branded plane all to the Dublin airport. Is this not a little bit extra? Is it not a little bit superfluous to have every single facet of the Trump family's envoy there? So we've got the Guitary Jet. We've got the old Air Force one and we've got the Trump jet itself. I just find this to be so despicable and

honestly a huge waste of taxpayer dollars. Also that Trump could go quite literally golf. He golfed. That was his main priority. And that's why people were protesting. This family is corrupt. They do not care. They will sell out our country. And AOC has pointed this out very well. So, Kavisor, what do you make of Don Jr's wedding being paid for by a Russian oligarch? It's a new story today in public. I mean, as we've seen, these guys are in the pocket of everyone, but the American people. It's profoundly disturbing.

And I said it two years ago, and I'm saying it again. he, you know, this administration, they're going to sell, they will sell, they are selling out every single person in this country for a buck. And it's disgusting. And for what to have a, like, to what have a couple of extra frills at your wedding? It's disgusting. Exactly, exactly, exactly. For a couple extra thrills at your wedding and some extra fireworks, that is why they did it. And what about this one? I haven't covered this in a while. But Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, so Trump's daughter and Trump's son-in-law, are taking over an Albanian island that used to be protected land. This Albanian island is protected land. And then all of the sudden, after Jared Kushner met with some Albanian politicians, they removed the protection around this land. We got closer with Albania. And then Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump announced they were buying this private island. It was so popular that Albanian citizens protested for over a month. They're still protesting. This clip from a month or two back is of them pushing over some of the construction supplies off of a cliff because they don't want this island to be to be sold. Now the point I want to make here is that the Trump

family, they're acting like they're imperial kings. Like if you just have the last name Trump, you can be cutting deals with Russian oligarchs, buying islands that are protected coastal land, cutting deals with drone companies, whatever the hell you want, as long as your last name is Trump, they seem to think they have carte blanche to get away with it. And I find it to be absolutely disgusting. Republicans are out there defending it relentlessly, saying these are gross, false attacks. But again, how are they false attacks when Don Jr.'s wife admitted that the attacks were true? I'm going to leave it there.
