Project 2026: Trump’s Plan to Rig the Next Election

Trump’s Mortgage Fraud Smears Backfire on His Administration

When New York Attorney General Letitia James accused Donald Trump of committing fraud by lying to banks and insurance companies about the value of his properties, he never really denied it.
