Companies Backed by Trump Sons Have Scored Over $6 Billion in Pentagon Contracts: Analysis
4 days ago by pelespirit to c/politics
An analysis published on Wednesday by ABC News estimated that companies backed financially by Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump have so far scored more than $6 billion in contracts from the US Department of Defense.
As ABC documented, many of the investments into the defense firms come through 1789 Capital, a venture capital firm founded by pro-Trump donors in 2023 that brought Trump Jr. in as a partner in 2024.
