An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Duffy, Bondi & Others Cashed Out Before Tariffs: Investigate Now

23 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!

Top officials dumped stocks just before Trump’s tariffs tanked the market. That’s not a strategy; it’s self-dealing. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy sold up to $600,000 in stocks two days before the tariffs were announced, and the S&P 500 plunged 13 percent (The Daily Beast, May 19, 2025). Attorney General Pam Bondi dumped up to $5 million in Trump Media shares on the day the whole plan was released (ProPublica, May 14, 2025). These aren’t isolated incidents. Over a dozen officials are implicated (ProPublica, May 22, 2025). Integrity in our highest office is essential. Public office is not a license to profit from privileged information. If any other American used insider intel to avoid a market crash, they’d face prosecution. You must act. Launch immediate investigations, subpoena records, freeze assets, and propose legislation banning federal officials from trading individual stocks, period. If you believe in integrity, prove it.
