I urge you to thoroughly investigate President Trump's conduct for potential insider trading violations related to his social media posts and subsequent tariff announcements. The significant market movements and tremendous opportunities for financial gain by those with advance knowledge raise serious ethical and legal concerns. Trump posted on Truth Social at 9:37am urging investors to buy stocks, calling it "a great time to buy" as the market dipped. Then less than four hours later, he announced a 90-day suspension of nearly all tariffs, causing the S&P 500 to surge and regain around $4 trillion in value. This sequence of events provides a window for insiders with foreknowledge of the tariff changes to profit enormously from well-timed market trades. The chaotic nature of Trump's tariff policies, with positions shifting hourly, enables unethical profiteering by those privy to information before it becomes public. His apparent alerting of supporters to "buy" stocks just hours before his market-moving announcement warrants scrutiny into whether he or his associates exploited insider knowledge for personal financial gain - a breach of public trust. This alleged "insider trading scandal" undermines market integrity and faith in government. I urge a thorough, independent investigation to uphold ethical standards, identify any wrongdoing, and hold accountable those who may have abused their access for illicit personal enrichment at public expense. Transparent, impartial inquiry is critical to restoring confidence in the system's fairness.
