Prosecute Trump for his Illegal Stock Market Manipulation

To: Sen. Gallego, Sen. Kelly, Rep. Ciscomani

From: A verified voter in Tucson, AZ

May 4

This recent incident involving President Trump's tweets and subsequent market movements raises serious concerns about potential illegal stock market manipulation. Within minutes of the markets opening, the President tweeted "NOW IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!" encouraging investors to purchase stocks. Just hours later, he announced a pause on the tariffs he had broadly imposed, leading to a market rally and windfall profits for those who heeded his earlier advice. Disturbingly, there was a spike in call option purchases just before the tariff news broke, suggesting insider trading may have occurred. The President's actions appear to have intentionally roiled the markets for personal gain, causing immense volatility and economic instability worldwide. This flagrant abuse of power for enrichment cannot go unchecked. Credible allegations of insider trading and market manipulation demand a thorough investigation and accountability. I urge you to take immediate action to examine these deeply unethical acts that undermine public trust and the integrity of U.S. financial markets. The American people deserve answers and justice.
