🌍Foreign diplomats spend millions at Trump hotels since 2025 inauguration

The Constitution explicitly prohibits federal officials from accepting foreign payments without congressional consent. Trump's continued business operations while president create constitutional violations.

Founding fathers understood how foreign payments could compromise American sovereignty and decision-making. Modern violations threaten the same democratic independence they sought to protect.

Legislative branch must monitor and approve foreign financial relationships to prevent executive corruption. When Congress cannot oversee foreign payments, constitutional checks fail.

American diplomacy must serve national interests rather than presidential business relationships. Foreign payments create conflicts that compromise diplomatic independence and effectiveness.
