He shat on the domestic emoluments clause on day one of term one, and there's been no repercussions. Why would he stop now?

Biden couldn't give students a break on loans, yet this Pedophile can do whatever he wants. Someone has blackmail on every judge in our system.

Biden was hamstrung by Congress, but what he absolutely could have done is immediately fire everyone who was ever put in power by Trump, put in a progressive attorney general and expand the courts.
Instead he chose the milk toast option and fucked us all

The judges are willingly going along with this.

Direct market manipulation wasn't getting him enough profit so now he's literally selling access to his market-manipulation announcements.
I'd say this is literally criminal evidence in a future court date if this was any country other than the US (or Russia, etc).

Any and all money raised this way should be diverted to ACA, SNAP, WIC , and similar social programs.
