President Trump’s financial disclosures reveal that he and his family earned more than $1 billion through cryptocurrency ventures and other businesses last year, according to a 927-page report filed with the Office of Government Ethics. The report shows that more than $500 million came from the cryptocurrency venture “World Liberty Financial,” which was co-founded by Trump family members. The sale of souvenir “meme” coins featuring Trump’s image generated more than $600 million. Other income included more than $50 million from settlements with media companies and millions in profits from Trump-branded products like Bibles, sneakers and watches. These earnings, which have outpaced his real estate business, have sparked concerns about potential conflicts of interest. The White House released a statement denying any conflicts of interest, and spokesperson Anna Kelly applauded Trump for making the U.S. “the crypto capital of the world.”

• 🎧 Democrats have had a lot to say regarding the president’s earnings, NPR’s Linda Kenyon tells Up First. Sen. Adam Schiff of California suggested Trump has earned more money in the first year of his current term than in the rest of his life combined. Rep. Jason Crow of Colorado referred to the president’s cryptocurrency earnings as another example of what he described as “grift and corruption.” Crow also highlighted that the president took his first flight yesterday on a brand-new Air Force One, a gift from a foreign government valued at roughly $400 million.

The Vatican this morning formalized the excommunications of the bishops and priests of the conservative group known as the Society of St. Pius X, declaring that it has entered schism and broken communion with the pope and the Catholic Church. The group, known as SSPX, celebrates the traditional Latin Mass and opposes some modern church reforms. In the Catholic Church, the appointment of new bishops is the responsibility of the pope. But yesterday, the group defied Pope Leo XIV by consecrating four bishops without his approval. The Society framed its actions as a defense of Catholic tradition. During the ceremony, the Rev. Davide Pagliarani, head of the Society of St. Pius X, described the consecrations as an act of service rather than rebellion. Two of the excommunicated men teach in the U.S., where the group’s membership has been growing, according to the society.

A little over a week has passed since rare double earthquakes struck Venezuela. Thousands of people are feared dead as the official death toll continues to rise and hope diminishes for finding survivors in the rubble. Yesterday, the number of people killed by the quakes reached 2,295, and more than 11,200 people were injured, said Jorge Rodríguez, the president of Venezuela’s National Assembly. Tens of thousands of people remain unaccounted for. The number of people left homeless could be staggering. An analysis of satellite data by Corey Scher and Jamon Van Den Hoek from Oregon State University estimated that 58,870 buildings were likely damaged or destroyed by the earthquakes. The U.N.’s International Organization for Migration has reported that up to 6.8 million people could be affected by the disaster, needing shelter, water, sanitation, healthcare and other relief items. Here are the most significant developments since the tragedy occurred.
