Every channel of money around this presidency — political funds, the inaugural committee, the ballroom, and outside spending. From public filings; campaign money is excluded.
All data on this page comes from public sources, including filings with the Federal Election Commission.
During his current term (47th presidency):
total political money — contributions, outside spending, and inaugural funds — flowing through this presidency
This is not personal wealth. This is the sum of disclosed political contributions, outside spending by groups, and inaugural committee funds filed with the FEC.
Political contributions $210.6M · inaugural committee $247.7M · the ballroom $400.0M* · outside spending by groups $724.8M. *Estimated project cost; all other figures from public filings.
Each channel is less transparent than the last. The political funds are fully disclosed. The inaugural disclosures come late. The ballroom donors are partially anonymous. The library fund was dissolved before anyone could see where the money went. The anti-weaponization fund required no disclosure at all.
The eight biggest overlap donors on the left; the channels they fund on the right. Each line’s thickness is the dollars given; the light pulses show the money moving. Ballroom lines are dashed — those gifts are confirmed, but the amounts are not disclosed. Hover a donor or a channel to light its paths.
| Donor | Political | Inaugural | Ballroom |

| Miriam Adelson | $40M | $1M | confirmed |
| Google / Alphabet | — | $1M | $22M |

Line thickness reflects disclosed FEC amounts and the three confirmed ballroom figures (Google $22M, Lockheed >$10M, Extremity Care $2.5M). Other ballroom lines show confirmed participation only.
People who want to support the president don't write him a personal check. They give to political funds — some with limits, some without. These funds show only money received since January 20, 2025; campaign contributions from before that date are excluded. Click any category to see the committees inside it.
Joint Fundraising Committees serve as collection vehicles that split donations across multiple political committees in a single transaction. Two JFCs operate for the current presidency:
Trump National Committee JFC (FEC C00873893): $87.98M in receipts, $55.26M transferred to affiliated committees.
Trump Save America JFC (FEC C00770941): $13.76M in receipts, $13.45M transferred.
These are fully FEC-disclosed and traceable — unlike the Library Fund or Ballroom, every dollar and every donor is in the public record.
Every individual who gave to the Republican party’s funds behind this president — campaign, joint fundraising, and leadership PACs — ranked by total. The top 50 load below; type a name or employer to search all of them.
Amounts are itemized individual contributions (over $200) from public FEC filings — not any claim about why they gave. A row reflects giving under a name; for common names that may combine same-named individuals.
In September 2025, President Trump began construction on a $400 million addition to the White House — a 90,000-square-foot state ballroom replacing the demolished East Wing. The project is funded by private donations from corporations and individuals to the Trust for the National Mall, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Donation amounts are not publicly disclosed. The White House released the names of 37 donors; reporting has identified at least 8 more.
These donors gave to the president’s political funds, his inaugural committee, AND his ballroom. Each channel is less transparent than the last.

Settlement money from lawsuits Trump brought against media companies was routed into a nonprofit for a future presidential library. Federal rules do not require presidential library nonprofits to disclose their donors — so once the money arrived, it left public view.
“It is unclear where this money has gone, exacerbating concerns about corruption that were apparent at the time of the settlement.” — Warren, Blumenthal, and Stansbury, March 11, 2026
Separately, Qatar agreed to provide a Boeing 747-8 aircraft for presidential use, with the plane designated first for government service and then for the presidential library after the term. Senate Resolution 244 characterized the arrangement as an unconstitutional emolument; the resolution was non-binding and did not advance.
Like the Ballroom, the Library Fund is privately funded — but unlike the Ballroom, it was dissolved before any public accounting. No 990 was filed. Federal law does not require presidential library nonprofits to disclose their donors.

drawn from the permanent federal Judgment Fund — a Treasury appropriation meant for standard legal judgments against the United States — as part of a settlement of Trump’s personal $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS over leaked tax returns. This was not money raised; it was taxpayer money.
Separately, 35 former federal judges urged the judge in the IRS case to reopen it and consider whether the settlement was an act of fraud. Opposition was bipartisan — Democratic lawmakers called it a “slush fund,” and multiple Republican lawmakers publicly opposed it.

The Trump Vance Inaugural Committee raised $247,702,249 from 849 donors. Inaugural committees can accept unlimited corporate, LLC, and individual money — corporations are barred from giving to regular political funds, and there are no contribution limits here. Every dollar disclosed to the FEC.
Total reflects the latest amendment for each filing period, with memo sub-entries and refunds excluded — reconciling to the committee’s FEC-reported receipts. FEC.gov’s running aggregate can read higher by counting superseded amendments.
Money spent by outside groups to support or oppose the president — not coordinated with his campaign. After Citizens United, this spending has no limit. This is what named Donald J. Trump in the 2024 election.
Groups that hide their donors
501(c)(4) groups and the super PACs they fund spent $147,456,074 on independent expenditures naming the president in the 2024 cycle. Their donors are not disclosed under current law.
The documents exist. The transactions are verified. The donors behind these groups are not.
These same people — the ones writing million-dollar checks to the Republican party — also give money to individual members of Congress. Both Democrats and Republicans.
What's an Influenced Index score?127 donors each gave at least $100,000 to the Republican party's two main leadership funds since he took office. 50 members of Congress — 7 of them in the top “Most exposed” tier — took money from those same donors.
Each card shows how much a member took from donors who also write the biggest checks to the Republican party — and that member's Influenced Index score. Hover any card for the plain-English version.
“Shared donors” are individuals who gave at least $100,000 to the Senate Leadership Fund or Congressional Leadership Fund since January 20, 2025 and who also contributed to the listed member across the 2024 and 2026 cycles. Donor identities are resolved across filings and name variants merged; amounts are summed across matched records.
The full financial footprint of a presidency isn’t just what the president raises. It includes the inaugural committee — where corporate money is legal — and the independent expenditures from outside groups spending to support or oppose them. This is all of it.
Corporate money is barred from every other political fund. It is legal in two places: the inaugural committee (where Trump raised $247.7M — about 4 times Biden’s $61.9M) and the White House State Ballroom (a separate $400 million project where donation amounts are not disclosed at all). The same corporations appear in both.
Combined, $4.05B flowed around two presidencies. Every dollar from public filings — except the Ballroom, where only the names are known.
Billions are hard to picture. Here is the money around these presidencies next to things with a known price — every bar drawn to the same scale.
