Same old story, on a whole new scale. Donny Junior has a piece the numbers game on the east side, so the family makes sure the cops don’t come round asking too many questions… | ||

> Donald Trump Jr. Got A Kalshi Stake For Free— Now It Could Be Worth Billions As Prediction Market Platform Eyes $40 Billion Valuation > Kalshi handed him equity worth roughly $300,000 when he joined as a strategic adviser in early 2025. ... Kalshi granted him the stake when the company was valued at under $2 billion — less than a tenth of its $22 billion valuation in a funding round last month ... Um, how does a $300K stake at an "under $2 billion" valuation become "worth billions" with a 10-50x valuation increase? (Disclaimer: I'm not defending the Trump family in any way, the administration has been absurdly and blatantly corrupt.) | ||
