Millions in suspicious trades timed with Trump's yo-yoing on the Iran War.

Murphy on ‘$1.5 BILLION’ stock trade before Trump Iran announcement: ‘Mind blowing corruption’​

Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) on Monday drew attention to an unusually large oil stock trade that occurred moments before President Trump announced a five-day pause on previously threatened energy infrastructure strikes in Iran, indicating it appeared be a case of insider trading.

In an X post highlighted by Murphy, a stock market watcher said, “In one move, $1.5 billion in S&P 500 (ES) futures was bought while $192 million in oil (CL) futures was sold.”

“$1.5 BILLION. Let me say it again – a $1.5 BILLION BET. Bigger than any futures purchases made at the time. 5 minutes before Trump’s post,” Murphy wrote in his own post.

“Who was it? Trump? A family member? A White House staffer? This is corruption. Mind blowing corruption,” he added.
 
If someone is getting rich on insider trading and gambling on the deaths of Americans fighting in the ME, they should be charged with a crime.

Roughly $580 million worth of oil futures changed hands in a single minute early Monday morning, only about 15 minutes before President Trump posted on Truth Social that the U.S. had been engaged in “productive conversations” with Iran to end the war.

Now Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman is calling what he sees: treason.

“We have another word for situations in which people with access to confidential information regarding national security — such as plans to bomb or not to bomb another country — exploit that information for profit,” Krugman wrote in a Substack post Tuesday. “That word is treason.”

IT IS Trump and his sons they invested in a drone company not long after he started this war, it is not only insider trading but is against the emolument Clause of the Constitution.
Another example of how Trump uses the Constitution for T P.
Time to start calling / email/ text your people in Congress and tell them to do something about it,

Trump will probably never go to prison, but his sons might. LOL

This is beyond a doubt one of the most corrupt administrations in our lifetimes. They're going to be extra desperate to keep their majority come Nov. to prevent inquiries and indictments for this illegal profiteering.

Well as I said it is time people to write/email/ text/ call their people in Congress and ask them why they haven't done something about him breaking the emolument Clause of the Constitution.
Why are they letting him stomp on the Constitution.
I just finished emailing mine and will give him an ear full when he gets back to me.
