From the team behind The Trump Tracker
Deep dives.
One story at a time, taken all the way down. Each dive follows a single episode from the first post to the latest ruling, sets what was claimed against what the record shows, and links every fact to its source.
Facts and opinions are kept apart. Every link and every quotation traces to a verified entry in The Trump Tracker, and a check that runs on every change will not let a page through otherwise. How these are built ↓

A section · 3 questions · 3 answered so far
Corruption
Three plain questions about public power and private benefit, each answered by its own deep dive.
01Is he profiting from the office?
By His Own Account
Is he profiting from the office? His own financial disclosure answers most of it: what came in during his first year back, where it came from, and who was paying.
02Is access being sold?
The Ballroom
Who is paying for the president's ballroom, and what have they gotten since? The donors, the public money, the contracts, and a court fight the Supreme Court paused without deciding.
03Is public money promoting him?
Paid For
Is public money being used to promote the president himself? Banners of his face, an app on federal phones, a 24-hour stream and a TV ad with a government disclaimer: what each cost and who paid.
Standards
How these are built
From the record
- Every dive is written from Trump Tracker entries that have already been through the tracker’s validation protocol, with court filings and transcripts linked directly wherever they exist.
Checked, mechanically
- Every link must appear in a seed entry’s sources and every quotation must appear word for word in a seed entry. A page that fails either check does not go out.
Both sides, quoted
- The people defending what the dive documents are quoted in their strongest form, next to the people objecting. You should be able to disagree with our take and still trust the page.
Corrected in the open
- Each dive keeps its own corrections log. When a dive exposes an error in the tracker, the tracker is fixed first.
