Well, we know she's selling meme coins, or I'm not sure if you can even call it that.
We know her meme coin is absolutely tanking and it's lost over 82, 83% of its value.
We know she's selling a documentary of herself that no one wants to watch to Amazon
for like $40 million. Can you say quid pro quo, Jeff Bezos? But where is she? I mean, seriously,
she did attend on Thursday a ceremony giving former first lady, the late Barbara Bush, a stamp.
More on that in a little bit.
But that was one of, I would say,
maybe four or five times we've actually seen Melania.
You know, the New York Times wrote this article,
and this is what it's called,
a most sensitive subject in the White House.
Where is Melania?
I mean, she doesn't want to be anywhere near Donald Trump.
I mean, we've known that and we've reported that before.
You know, it's funny.
In this article from the New York Times, they're like, you know, sources charitably say she's been at the White House about 14 times in the 100 plus days that Donald Trump's been in office charitably.
I think that probably means she's been there about four or five days. So where is she physically?
I think she's most frequently in New York, which Donald Trump calls a hellscape, and they
love to attack New York. And she's at the apartment there where Barron goes to school.
And then I think also she's at Mar-a-Lago, but she doesn't want to be anywhere near Donald
unless she's making money and grifting or unless she's making a public appearance,
like when she was at Pope Francis's funeral, which Donald Trump said, oh, that's such an
incredible funeral, such a great time. Who calls it a great time?
Let me show you what went down first on Thursday, where she was at this Barbara Bush stamp ceremony that I think nobody wanted her to be at.
I mean, here's what she said.
It's hard to even understand what she's saying, but here's what she said at this Barbara Bush ceremony.
Play this clip. The unveiling of this commemorative stamp honors Barbara Bush's contributions as First Lady
and her enduring impact on our nation. May this tribute inspire us to lead with compassion,
act with strength, and uphold the values that direct us toward meaningful existence. Thank you.
But as we go through the Melania appearances, if you will, it's about grifting. It's about
making money for herself. Take a look at the official Melania meme coin, dollar sign,
Melania. That's what they call it. You see what that looks like right there with the green going
all the way up and then crashing?
Well, I guess you could say that that's what Donald Trump has turned the American economy into.
It's like a Smolania or dollar sign Trump meme coin.
But there she is.
The meme coins, absolutely an utter disaster. By the way, with Trump memes coin, I think there were like 50 wallets that made money in $776,000 that lost money, just literally
screwing people over. Then right here, it says, First Lady Melania Trump scores win for America's
foster youth with $25 million investment. That was one of the PR scams they wanted to announce. Funding is a game changer in providing young
adults with access to short-term housing assistance. So I'm like, she secures an investment,
$25 million. That sounds like a lot of money. What are we talking about here? So you got to go into
the article and they're talking about, they're acting like she secured this. Melania announced Friday that a $25 million foster youth investment will be included in Trump's 2026 fiscal year budget.
The funds will go to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Foster Youth to Independence program to support young people who are transitioning out of foster care.
Let me be very clear. Way more money than $25 million should be invested in HUD and specifically this program.
This is one of those examples where Melani is a scammer and Fox is a scammer, and they treat us
all like we're actually stupid. Because if you actually look at the budget, $26 billion with a B has been cut from HUD in their Section
8 housing portion alone, $33 billion total from HUD. But when it comes to rental assistance
programs and just in general, helping low-income Americans and other low-income Americans and
foster care Americans just generally, we're talking about $26.7 billion to $33 billion in
cuts. And they're acting like $25 million is somehow a win that Melania secured as though
it's her money. Don't they act like this is their money?
It's the taxpayer money. And what you're actually doing in this budget is you're adding $120
billion more to defense spending so you can have a trillion dollars. You're adding $44 billion
to immigration crackdown so you can do publicity stunts and not actually do deportations with dignity or actually have a
functioning immigration system. But yes, $33 billion cut from HHS, $12 billion from education
funding, $15 billion from infrastructure funding on climate change, $34 billion from HUD, and it's
eviscerating HUD by over 40%. So don't brag about like, oh, we should be
thankful for what you're doing here. Because what you're really doing, Melania, is while nobody sees
you at the White House and you spent like four days there. Here we have over here what Melania
is doing. She's selling necklaces for $600 and $200. That's what she is doing. But may I bring some receipts,
Melania? Because first, let me show you what you're complicit in. This is Melania when Donald
Trump was running the first time, where she said that it was merely locker room talk when Donald
Trump brags about sexually assaulting women, which Donald
Trump was found liable for sexual assault as well. Here's Melania. I don't feel bad for her.
She is a complicit actor in all of this. Here, play this clip.
He described it as locker room talk to you. I mean, you sort of alluded to that as well. Is
that what it is to you? Just locker room talk? Yeah, it's kind of two teenage boys. Actually, they should behave better, right?
He was 59.
Correct. And sometimes I said, I have two boys at home. I have my young son and I have my husband.
So, but I know how some men talk and that's how I saw it, yes.
I can't even begin to imagine all of the money that I've spent on skincare and beauty products
over the years to battle issues like acne and damaged hair and eczema, change in hair color,
rashes, etc. But I recently realized that I was completely overlooking the most fundamental step,
the water I shower in. Jolie is a beauty wellness company that purifies the water we shower in

So now let me pull out some receipts, shall I? Let me introduce you to
Natasha Stoynoff, who alleges Donald Trump assaulted her. Play this clip.
My name is Natasha Stoynoff. In 2005, I went to interview Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago. At one point,
Melania went upstairs to change her clothes for the next photo shoot. And Trump said to me,
I want to show you this beautiful painting, this beautiful room. He leads me to this room, pushing me against the wall and starts kissing me forcefully. I tried
to push him. He kept coming back at me. I was in shock and smothered. And he had his hands here
against my shoulders. I felt sick inside. I felt horrified. And thank goodness, the butler charges
into the room. Like many women, I blame myself. So Trump turned to me and said, you know we're
going to an affair, don't you? And Melania was approaching. I was horrified. When the Access
Hollywood tape came out, and also stories of many other women, including E.J. Carroll, I realized I
was not to blame. That he was just a predator of women. What could have happened if the butler had
not come into the room? Donald Trump is an adjudicated sexual assaulter. Now let me introduce you to
Jessica Leeds, who alleges that Donald Trump assaulted her. 1979, I had gotten on an airplane.
The stewardess said to me, would you like to come up to first class? In the window seat was a
gentleman who said that his name was Donald Trump. The airplane took off and all of a sudden,
Donald Trump started groping me. He was trying to kiss me and I'm trying to push him away.
He was basically overpowering me.
When he started putting his hand up my skirt, I got out of the seat, grabbed my purse and went back to my original seat.
And I certainly was shook up by the whole thing.
Two years later, at this fundraiser, up comes Trump and his wife.
And he looked at me and he said, I remember you.
You're that cunt from the airplane.
Donald Trump views women as for his entertainment.
He is a serial predator.
He has said it point blank and he's done it and he will continue to do it.
Let me introduce you to Stormy Daniels.
Here's what she has to say. Oh, is this the one? Let me introduce you to Karen McDougal. Here's
what she has to say. You said you had a text that first time. All these times you saw him,
this was an ongoing sexual relationship. Absolutely.
Can you estimate how many times you actually saw him?
I can tell you we saw each other
a minimum five times a month,
up to bigger numbers per month.
Over the course of how long?
So we were together 10 months before I chose to end it.
So we saw each other quite frequently.
So dozens of times you were together. Many dozens of times, yes. And you were intimate. frequently. So dozens of times you were together.
Many dozens of times, yes.
And you were intimate.
Yes.
Many dozens of times.
Did he ever use protection?
No.
No, he didn't.
Was that something you thought about or it didn't concern you at the time?
Yeah. you thought about or it didn't concern you at the time?
You know, we talked about it right beforehand. He was starting to, and then he's like,
I don't like these things. And, you know, we discussed things. Do you, do you, blah, blah,
blah. And we were just honest with each other and we didn't, we didn't use any. Now, Russia is enjoying all of this. As part of their mockery of Donald Trump in the United States,
state regime media in Moscow has frequently been showing Melania nudes over and over again
while their hosts mock Melania over and over again.
And they show all her photos from when she was a nude model.
That's what you want to call it. Melania had previously posted,
why do I stand proudly behind my nude modeling work? And by the way, I showed you Karen McDougal.
There's Karen McDougal. There's Ivanka. There's Melania all standing there partying together.
That was shortly around the Epstein days for Donald when he would party with Epstein. It was right around that time period, a little later, I think, but in the late 90s. And we all know how Melania met Donald Trump. Of course, she was introduced by a guy named Paolo Zampoli, who now has some like ambassadorship. Donald Trump appointed him to a big like ambassadorship role, but he ran a
modeling agency. She was an Eastern European model. He would have the models show up at these parties
at the Kit Kat Club. Wealthy Manhattan men would be invited in the 90s. And that's how Melania
ultimately met Donald through that. Now, I had the opportunity to interview Stephanie Winston Wilcoff about all
of this. This was a little bit before the election, but here's Stephanie Winston Wilcoff
tells me what she thinks about all of this play, this clip.
Melania, and I always say this, everything she does is intentional. And every appearance she makes is something that, again, she lets her clothing speak for herself.
She does not plan on putting herself in a position where she's going to be the object of conversation unnecessarily.
I think Melania and Donald, and I've said it all along, it is the Mark Burnett
rollout production show. Their marriage was one made for both of them that put them both on the
map. And strategically, it made them both acceptable to millions of Americans' homes
that they were entering into with the apprentice. So we have to roll back to really
understand their relationship as to what legitimized their relationship, making her the
supermodel and making him the businessman. And now here we have a woman, a mother, a wife who has not
been by her husband's side whatsoever. And I would say several years ago, she would have been there more.
Now, after the conviction that Donald has just faced with the hush money criminal felony case in New York City, she's going to be around less and less.
He will continue to move forward. His base doesn't need her there.
Nor do they really, you know, would it really change the dial in whether or not they would consider him as their be all end all because they will. But as far as Melania is concerned,
she's going to keep her head low. She's going to only do what she wants to do. But she and Donald,
I do not believe are ever, ever going to part ways. You know, I wonder now when it comes to
Melania, though, if one of the things she's nervous about is what happened to Donald Trump's first wife, Ivana.
Remember when the Daily Mail reported that Trump's wife, Ivana, first wife, Ivana, was buried in a cordoned off grave in Bedminster that was barely visible in a completely overgrown area and the 506 acre
golf course, apparently or allegedly. So Donald Trump could get tax exemptions or
tax write-offs by turning the golf course into a cemetery in an area where he buried his first wife
after she fell downstairs. Well, anyway. Okay. No Melania. I guess she's talking about stamps. Who knows?
