“We ask the SEC to determine whether President Trump, any members of his cabinet, or other donors, insiders, and Administration officials engaged in insider trading, market manipulation, or other securities laws violations on April 9, 2025, when President Trump announced that it was a 'GREAT TIME TO BUY' into the stock market.”
- Notes
- A congressional request for investigation. It alleges nothing has been adjudicated; no violation is established by the letter itself.
