follow the money

The country that was built by immigrants is now being sold to oligarchs.
IT’S A PAY TO PLAY GOVERNMENT
If you pay dearly, you may have your status as a US resident fast-tracked.
Trump signed an Executive Order in September 2025 which created a GOLD CARD and PLATINUM CARD visa program.
Any foreign national who makes a $1 million gift to the Commerce Department you will be fast-tracked for residency here. In the case of a corporations $2 million does the trick.
There is a Platinum visa program as well where a $5 million contribution allows you extended stays without US tax liability on foreign income.
Sweet sweet deal. As of June 2025 more than 70,000 people have joined the list for this program.
What you get for your money:
- Unlimited right of residence in the U.S., similar to a green card
- A possible path to U.S. citizenship, what Trump calls “privileges plus”
- Legal residency without the need to invest in specific businesses or projects, as is the case with the existing EB-5 program
- Faster and more direct path to residency compared to other immigration programs
- Opportunity for oligarchs and other wealthy foreigners to immigrate to the U.S. more easily
- Potential attractiveness for companies looking to bring highly skilled workers to the U.S.
- Tax exemption for up to 270 days with the Trump Platinum Card
Wonder what type of vetting is being done. We accept oligarchs but not immigrants or those fleeing violence. The country that was built by immigrants is now being sold to oligarchs.
