Five Facts About Year One of Trump

Five Facts About Year One of Trump

It's been fifteen months since the second Trump inauguration, and the receipts are piling up faster than the news cycle can process them.

Most of us have stopped keeping count. That's the point — that's the design. Outrage has a half-life, and his administration has gotten very good at timing the next scandal to arrive before you've finished processing the last one.

So here are five receipts. All of them are real. All of them are on the scroll timeline on our home page. All of them are the reason this store exists.

1. He launched his own memecoin three days before taking office.

On January 17, 2025, Donald Trump released $TRUMP — a cryptocurrency token whose supply is 80% owned by Trump-linked companies. Foreign nationals poured in through offshore exchanges. Trading fees alone have pulled in over $320 million.

This is a sitting president with a direct, ongoing financial stake in an industry he personally regulates. Congress passed laws against this kind of thing in the 1970s. They specifically exempted the president.

2. On Day One, he pardoned roughly 1,600 people convicted in the January 6 Capitol attack.

Among them: over 600 people convicted of assaulting police officers. Enrique Tarrio, the former Proud Boys leader who was serving 22 years for seditious conspiracy, walked free.

According to Axios's reporting on the internal White House debate, Trump's final words on whether to issue targeted pardons or blanket clemency were: "F*** it. Release 'em all."

3. On April 9, he appears to have moved the market with a single Truth Social post.

At 9:37 a.m. ET, Trump posted: "THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!! DJT." (DJT is the ticker for his own media company.)

At 1:18 p.m., he announced a 90-day pause on his own tariffs. The S&P 500 jumped 9.5% by close. Trump Media and Technology Group jumped nearly 22%.

Congressional Democrats called on the SEC to investigate. Legal experts pointed out that if the information was "public" (via the morning post), it's technically not insider trading under the letter of the law. Which, for some reason, is supposed to be reassuring.

4. He accepted a $400 million jet from the Qatari royal family.

In May 2025, the Trump administration officially accepted a luxury Boeing 747-8 — described by reporters as a "palace in the sky" — from the Qatari royal family. It's being retrofitted to serve as Air Force One. After his term ends, the plane will transfer to his presidential library foundation.

Retrofit costs alone could hit $1 billion in taxpayer money.

This is a foreign government giving a sitting president an asset worth approximately half the annual budget of the Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Division. The word for that starts with "e" and ends with "moluments."

5. On March 23, 2026, someone made $500 million in oil bets fifteen minutes before his Iran announcement.

Between 6:49 and 6:50 a.m. ET on March 23 of this year, someone placed approximately $500–580 million in crude oil futures — at about nine times the normal volume for that hour.

Fifteen minutes later, President Trump posted on Truth Social about de-escalating with Iran.

Oil prices dropped. Someone made a fortune. The CFTC and SEC have opened investigations into whether material nonpublic information — information only a handful of people in the US government would have had — moved the market.

Nobel-prize-winning economist Paul Krugman called it "treason."

Why we made a store

We made a store because the news cycle will not save us, and the Senate will not save us, and the next election is not a plan.

Every shirt we print funds the message. Every sticker we sell is a billboard on a laptop at a coffee shop you'll never visit. Every hat is a neighbor you haven't met yet who finally says something when you pass them on the sidewalk.

That is the plan. That is the whole plan.

The receipts are real. The receipts are public. We just made them wearable.
