Ukraine went to China to buy an attack drone.

China refused to sell.

So a Ukrainian team flew to the factory, took a pilot-training offer, and quietly photographed everything—the production line, the shelves, the cabinets.

Two years later, they build their own version for $48,000. That’s $2,000 less than the Chinese original.

On 16 July, one of those drones flew 800 km into Russia and tore the tail off a Tu-95 bomber at Engels-2.

The Soviets stopped building that plane decades ago. Russia can’t replace it.  euromaidanpress.com/2026/08/…

Trump’s substantial revenues from his crypto ventures

AI Mode
President Donald Trump earned over $1.4 billion from cryptocurrency ventures alone last year, making digital assets the single largest line item on his personal balance sheet. According to a massive 927-page annual financial disclosure released by the Office of Government Ethics, Trump’s crypto windfalls significantly eclipsed the revenues generated by his traditional real estate portfolio, including Mar-a-Lago and his historic golf clubs. [1, 2, 3, 4]
📈 Latest Crypto Disclosure Updates
President Trump reported a total income of at least $2.2 billion for the year, propelled heavily by the administration’s pro-crypto stance and executive actions. While the White House maintains that the president’s business interests are held in a trust managed by his sons, ethics experts have raised immense concerns regarding conflicts of interest as the federal government actively rolls back crypto sector regulations. [1, 5, 6]
🔍 Breakdown of Crypto Revenue Streams
Trump’s multi-million and multi-billion dollar crypto injections came primarily from licensing his name, royalties, and token sales without risking much of his own capital: [7, 8, 9, 10, 11]
World Liberty Financial (WLF): Generated over $500 million in income via token sales. WLF is a decentralized finance platform co-founded with his sons, utilizing a revenue-sharing model where a Trump-controlled entity receives 75% of net proceeds. [3, 12, 13, 14]

Trump Meme Coins ($TRUMP): Brought in $635 million in royalties and licensing fees through CIC Digital LLC and an entity known as Celebration Coins. [1, 15]
WLFI Token Holdings: The Trump family holds roughly 22.5 billion WLFI governance tokens through an intermediary, valued at over $1.3 billion during market peaks. [16]
⚠️ Volatility and Investor Losses

While the Trump family locked in massive, historic revenues, outside retail and institutional investors faced devastating downsides: [2, 7, 13, 17, 18]
Token Depreciations: Both the World Liberty tokens and the  $TRUMP meme coins have suffered massive crashes. The meme coins, which spiked above $74 following the inauguration, have tumbled down to a mere $1.68. [3, 13]
Investor Deficits: Reports indicate that roughly one million ordinary investors in Trump-linked crypto endeavors absorbed $3.8 billion in collective losses as values plunged. [5]

Corporate Shortfalls: Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) took a massive $238 million net loss in Q2, heavily driven by the declining value of its Bitcoin treasury holdings. [19]
