‘No Kings' protest against Trump draws hundreds to downtown Scranton
Jan Needham of Moosic spent part of her Saturday afternoon at the 'No Kings' protest on Scranton's Courthouse Square because she thought it was important to speak out. Hundreds of people attended the event in response to the Trump administration's large-scale military parade, also held on Saturday. 'We're here to stand up for America,' she said. 'We're in trouble if we don't stand up to Trump.' Aaron Newhart of Falls Township agreed. A veteran, he takes issue with the reported $45 million Trump is spending on the day's festivities held in Washington, D.C. The money, he said, would be better spent on resources to assist to families and help for veterans. 'He's really just having his own birthday party,' he said. 'That's what dictators do.' Legislators speak out State Representative Bridget Kosierowski told the crowd she was not only a state representative, but also a registered nurse. Trump's proposed cuts to Medicare and Medicaid, as well as other supportive services, put the health and wellbeing of citizens at risk, she said. Kosierowski also expressed hope in the democratic process and people's willingness to speak out. 'We can do better,' she said. 'And, we will.' * Protestors gather on Courthouse Square in Scranton for a 'No Kings' protest in Scranton on Saturday, June 14, 2025.

(JASON ARDAN / STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER) Expand Lackawanna County Commissioner Bill Gaughan took to the podium and encouraged people to speak out against the Trump administration and its policies. 'History does not look kindly on those who remained silent,' he said. He said Trump supporters have a Bible in one hand and hate in the other. 'They talk about Jesus,' he said. 'And walk with cruelty.' He quoted a line from a poem written by Emma Lazarus, which is inscribed on the base of the Statue of Liberty: 'Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.' Now, he said, those huddled masses are being chained, tackled and deported. 'We will not stop until Donald Trump's name is written in ash in the mouth of history,' he said. State Representative Kyle Donahue pointed out FOX News reported that such rallies were composed mostly of paid protestors. 'Are you paid?' he shouted to the crowd, who responded with a resounding, 'No.' 'We are here to remind people today that were are not subjects, we are citizens,' he said. Counter protestors Several pro-Trump protestors were sprinkled through the crowd and periodically heckled speakers. Republican Bob Bolus brought his commercial truck to the event, which bore Trump's likeness alongside a depiction of Jesus and the American flag. Gaughan encouraged the crowd to ignore them. 'They're not important,' he said.

Trump Raked in $57.3 Million From Crypto Venture, Per White House Financial Disclosures
President Donald Trump earned money in 2024 from a variety of sources, including luxury properties and royalty payments and licensing earnings for the use of his name and likeness last year, and big bucks from his crypto venture with World Liberty Financial, to the tune of more than $57 million, according to the required Executive Branch Personnel Public Financial Disclosure report filed on June 13. Trump debuted the cryptocurrency platform World Liberty Financial in September, and it's a family affair: it's controlled by his sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump and Trump's 18-year-old son Barron is the project's 'DeFi visionary,' as CBS News reports. Its leadership also includes Zach Witkoff, the son of Trump's Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff. The venture is one of his largest sources of income in the 234-page document for calendar year 2024, noted on page 171, with token sales raking in more than $57.3 million for WLF Holdco LLC, for which he holds 75 percent ownership via entity DT Marks Defi LLC. Trump's $TRUMP cryptocurrency token, which reached the billions on paper a couple of days before inauguration day, was not included in the form since it was released this year. Less than 24 hours before he was inaugurated, $MELANIA meme coins for First Lady Melania Trump also arrived, all of which has brought into focus ethics questions. Last month, Trump held a dinner party for the 220 top holders of $TRUMP. Meanwhile, the GENIUS Act, which includes a controversial piece of cryptocurrency legislation that the Senate is set to pass next week, could 'create a superhighway for Donald Trump's corruption,' Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) told Rolling Stone ahead of key votes. The GENIUS Act would permit banks and private companies to issue stablecoins, with minimal regulatory oversight. Trump's WLF venture recently launched USD1 stablecoin, which is pegged to the U.S. dollar and backed by treasury bonds. The financial disclosure report also showed Trump's estate and member's only club Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida generated more than $50 million in 2024 and he earned $15 million in license fees from a Dubai property. He earned $3 million in royalty payments for coffee table book, Save America. Other big royalty generators include $2.5 million from Trump sneakers and fragrances; Trump's 'God Bless America' Bibles, which were printed in China, yielded $1.3 million; and $1 million came from Trump Guitars. The report included liabilities disclosures as well, listing more than $50 million in litigation involving E. Jean Carroll, the former magazine columnist who sued for sexual abuse and defamation, and separately for sexual assault and defamation, and won both cases.
