“Soliciting $50mm from people who will benefit from your official acts” is definitely a choice, even given the current case law on political corruption.

Hot (positive outlook?) take: this commission is purely a vehicle to pump DOGE up each time they hold a briefing/get it trending. We need a tracker bot to post each time they mention it and the reaction of the coin.
It could be just a corrupt side benefit to this whole endeavor. Maybe James can find someone with deep pockets to make a wager on what they truly accomplish😂
