Breaking! Buy Your Way In: Trump’s Plan to Sell U.S. Residency
Oligarchs, criminals, and billionaires—step right up!
Donald Trump has a new idea for immigration. Forget merit, forget investment, forget even background checks. Just wire $5 million in cash, and congratulations—you’re a U.S. resident.
Other countries at least try to make their "golden visa" programs look legitimate. Portugal, the UAE, and Malta demand investments in real estate or job creation. They run background checks, verify wealth, and sometimes even require people to live in the country before handing out residency.
Trump? Not so much. No mention of vetting. No residency requirements. No investment in the economy. Just cold, hard cash straight into Uncle Sam’s pocket.

The risks are obvious. Russian oligarchs, corrupt officials, and shady billionaires could waltz right in with zero scrutiny. No questions asked about where the money came from. No obligation to contribute to society. Just a passport to America with rights available to the highest bidder.
Critics say it turns U.S. residency into a luxury item, like a designer handbag. If you’re rich enough, you get in. If not, too bad.
Trump hasn’t explained how he’d enforce this, whether Congress needs to approve it, or what happens if a cartel boss shows up with a suitcase of cash. But details were never really his thing.
One thing’s for sure: If this plan goes through, America will not just be open for business; it will be on clearance.

Are we really at all surprised Trump would try selling residency to America? This is just another grift for Trump to try lining his personal pockets. I guan-goddamn-tee you, not a single penny is going to Uncle Sam, but rather the felon Trump. Every single day this SOB is weakening our national security, and making us more vulnerable to destabilization by Russia, Iran, and Saudi Arabia, but especially Russia. Russia has said for decades they can completely destabilize and decimate this country without having to fire a single shot (per an ex KGB agent over 20 years ago, they have a solid 5 point 3 decade plan), and they executed their plan over 20 years ago which is going right on schedule. The democrats need pry their heads out of their asses, grow balls, and actually do something to stop him.
Does the money go to him or Elon? Aaking for a foreign oligarch.
