I am writing to demand your immediate attention to what appears to be a blatant abuse of power by President Donald Trump. After imposing tariffs that contributed to a market downturn, Mr. Trump posted on Truth Social, “THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!! DJT.” Just four hours later, he announced a 90-day pause on most trade tariffs—causing the market to surge.
This is not mere coincidence. This is a clear pattern: destabilize the economy, then capitalize on the rebound. The timing and impact of his statements raise serious concerns about insider trading and market manipulation at the highest level of power.
Let me be clear: a form-letter response will not be acceptable. This is not a moment for political hedging or silence. It is a test of leadership, integrity, and your commitment to protecting our democracy and our economy from those who would exploit it for personal or political gain.
History will judge harshly those who stood by and enabled this behavior. And we, as voters, will not forget when it comes time to cast our ballots.
I urge you to publicly call for an investigation and to support legislation that ensures no public official—past or present—can weaponize policy decisions for personal enrichment.
I am watching. We are watching. And we expect action.
