Investigate Trump’s Insider Trading

To: Sen. Paul, Rep. McGarvey, Sen. McConnell

From: A verified voter in Louisville, KY

April 9

In light of President Trump's claim that it was a "great time to buy" just hours before announcing a 90-day pause on tariffs, leading to a significant stock market rally, there are legitimate concerns about potential insider trading. The close timing between the president's social media post and the major policy announcement that directly impacted financial markets raises questions about who may have had advance knowledge and profited unfairly. To uphold principles of fair markets and ethical governance, I urge you to call for congressional hearings to investigate whether any individuals engaged in insider trading based on nonpublic information about the forthcoming tariff pause. We must ensure no one exploited their access to the president or advance notice of policy shifts for personal financial gain. A thorough inquiry is warranted to maintain public trust and safeguard market integrity. Insider trading undermines faith in our economic system and cannot be tolerated, especially involving the president's own statements and actions. I respectfully request you take prompt action to address this serious matter through comprehensive hearings and a full investigation.
