President Donald Trump’s son Eric Trump has invested in an Israeli drone manufacturer, Xtend, whose products — including systems marketed for their “low cost‑per‑kill” capabilities — have attracted contracts from the U.S. Department of Defense. Xtend’s technology has been used in military operations, and its Pentagon deals have expanded under a merger aimed at taking the company public.
The investment came shortly before U.S. and allied strikes in the Middle East earlier this year — a timing that has fueled discussion online about conflicts of interest and connections between private investments and military policy, especially since the Pentagon is now a major customer for drone suppliers of this type.
Critics argue that the overlap between family business interests and national defense decisions raises serious questions about accountability and ethics, while supporters say the deals reflect broader market demand for drones in modern warfare.President Donald Trump’s son Eric Trump has invested in an Israeli drone manufacturer, Xtend, whose products — including systems marketed for their “low cost‑per‑kill” capabilities — have attracted contracts from the U.S. Department of Defense.

A new bill introduced in the U.S. House — the “No Getting Rich in Congress Act” — is gaining attention for its aim to put strict limits on how elected officials and their families handle investments while in office.
Led by Representative Haley Stevens, the legislation would bar the President, Vice President, members of Congress, and their immediate family members from buying or selling stocks, cryptocurrency, commodities, and similar investments unless they’re held in a truly blind trust. The goal, supporters say, is to stop lawmakers from using insider access to profit while serving.
Advocates argue this type of restriction could help restore public trust in government ethics, reducing financial conflicts of interest that critics say have eroded confidence in elected officials. Opponents have raised questions about how strict the rules should be and what counts as a conflict of interest.
Would banning lawmakers and their families from trading markets be a real solution — or too far?A new bill introduced in the U.S. House — the “No Getting Rich in Congress Act” — is gaining attention for its aim to put strict limits on how elected officials and their families handle investments while in office.
