Trump, Bessent, and Lutnick are pissed. They want all the insider trading gains for themselves!!!

Seriously. Going after this dude but not the ones making hundreds of millions of dollars? This is beyond robber baron times.

That is seriously stupid.

You’re seriously deluded. You just cut and paste the opinions you steal from the hags on The View.

You’re seriously deluded. You just cut and paste the opinions you steal from the hags on The View.

Look it up. I know that requires you to goutside your comfort zones. Look at WSJ, Bloomberg, and CNBC. Someone is making $500MM a week on insider trading from the Trump TACO trades, and it aint you.

You have a stuttering problem. Something to do with an emotional ailment. Get back to fulfilling burger and fries orders. Your employment opportunities are limited.

I gave you good stock market ideas on making money from Trump's announcements, that's your befuddled choice. If you want to be goofy and reject it, by all means do so. If you are dedicated to not make money, so be it.

US soldier charged after winning $400,000 betting on removal of Venezuela's Nicolas Maduro

A US special forces soldier involved in the military operation that captured Nicolas Maduro has been arrested after he allegedly bet on the removal of Venezuela's former leader before the information was publicly available.

The US Department of Justice (DOJ) has charged Gannon Ken Van Dyke after he allegedly made trades on Polymarket, a crypto-powered platform, on the basis of classified information.

"That is clear insider trading and is illegal under federal law," justice department officials said.

Van Dyke, an active-duty soldier in the US Army stationed at Fort Bragg in North Carolina, won more than $409,000 (£303,702) as a result of his bets.


Only $409,000? A drop in the ocean compared to Pelosi's insider trading.

Who aligned with the Administration is profiting from Trump's biweekly "peace in our lifetime" announcement?

Yet Congress does it every day for bigger stakes.

The soldier gets prosecuted because government officials don't like competition.
