BREAKING: Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez enrages the corrupt MAGA members of Congress by calling on them to reveal any recent stock trades made during Donald Trump's tariff disaster.
This could expose a mountain of insider trading...
"Any member of Congress who purchased stocks in the last 48 hours should probably disclose that now," AOC wrote on X.
"I’ve been hearing some interesting chatter on the floor. Disclosure deadline is May 15th. We’re about to learn a few things," she added. "It’s time to ban insider trading in Congress."
Her post quote-tweeted a report that NASDAQ call volume "spiked" just minutes before Trump announced a 90 day pause for his destructive tariffs. It certainly looks like some well-informed investors made a killing.
Anyone in the White House or broader Republican Party who was informed of Trump's announcement in advance could have raked in untold wealth.
AOC's demand for transparency comes at the same time that Democratic senators Adam Schiff and Ruben Gallego are demanding that the Office of Government Ethics open an investigation into possible insider trading tied to the tariffs.
They have requested information on whether Trump, his family, or members of his administration "engaged in insider trading or other illegal financial transactions informed by advanced knowledge of non-public information regarding his changes to tariff policy."
Given that the Trump administration is the most corrupt in American history by far, insider trading rooted in tariff market manipulation would be perfectly on brand.

Chris Krebs did his job to uphold our democracy and told the truth about the 2020 election when it wasn’t easy. Now, President Trump is targeting him yet again.
I worked with Chris on a nonpartisan basis for years to ensure our elections & democracy were safe.
This is wrong.
🚨NEWS: the House just narrowly passed Republicans' SAVE Act.
GOP House members think they can get away with disenfranchising millions of eligible voters across the country.
I am leading the fight in the Senate to block it.

Every time I ask a question to those on the Signal chain about whether classified information was shared, I get slippery semantics. This was a reckless breach of security at the hands of our top national security officials. Responsibility needs to be taken. Period.
This is GOP Congressman David Valadao, who just voted to cut $1 TRILLION in Medicaid funding. He represents a district with the second most Medicaid recipients in the U.S.
RETWEET to let @RepDavidValadao’s constituents know he voted to cut Medicaid!
It has been 18 days since we learned that those involved in Signalgate recklessly endangered the lives of American pilots.
The fact that there has been no Congressional investigation is an abomination. This should outrage every single Member of Congress.
President Trump said it best: No other president would do this. He is right, because these tariffs are a terrible idea.
It's time for Republicans in Congress to stand up to him.
BREAKING: In a stunning announcement, Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries just formally announced House Democrats will investigate Donald Trump’s alleged market interference scheme. This is huge.
BREAKING NEWS: Congressman Robert Garcia demands an investigation into Marjorie Taylor Greene and what she knew before Trump’s announcement that tariffs were suspended. MTG made major stock moves on April 3 and 4. The SEC must launch an inquiry.
Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone who agrees with Rep. Jasmine Crockett that it's insane that nobody is questioning trump's mental acuity and fitness to serve, in light of his insane decisions.
He is a danger to America's security.
