From promising an Iron Dome to turning the US into a Bitcoin superpower, Donald Trump's latest adventures have the internet buzzing! Get the scoop on his plans and the FBI's ongoing investigation into an assassination attempt.

Can Donald Trump really build an Iron Dome over America? In a word, no. The president-turned-candidate is still selling the same old missile-defense snake oil. The concept of an 'Iron Dome' is no more than a fantastical promise tailored to garner support, despite technological and logistical impossibilities. Yet, this is just one of many grandiose claims that Trump is using to stir the pot as he heads into the next election cycle.

In a bizarre twist, former President Donald Trump has agreed to participate in a victim interview with the FBI regarding an attempted assassination. Reports indicate that Trump will share his personal perspective with FBI agents as part of the ongoing investigation. This interview is a standard protocol but holds particular significance due to Trump's high-profile status.

Among his many ventures, Trump seems to have developed an unexpected obsession with bitcoin. Once a vocal critic of cryptocurrencies, Trump has pivoted dramatically. Now, he's promising to turn the United States into a “bitcoin superpower” and even pledged to create a strategic Bitcoin reserve during his speech at the Bitcoin 2024 conference. His transformation from skeptic to evangelist is raising eyebrows across the fintech world.

The most recent financial insights shows that despite a turbulent market, Trump's cryptocurrency promises continue to stir interest. The Nasdaq and S&P 500 have shown positive movements, partly spurred by Trump's newfound enthusiasm for digital currency. Though the practicality of these plans remains in question, they certainly add another layer of intrigue to his complex persona.

On a fascinating note, did you know that Trump's flip-flop on cryptocurrencies began with his foray into NFTs? These digital collectibles reportedly played a pivotal role in changing his view, proving that even the most unlikely candidates can become crypto enthusiasts! Additionally, while the Iron Dome might be a far-fetched idea, Trump's flair for making headlines ensures his promises, however outlandish, remain a hot topic.
