On the House floor tonight, I read the names of several Epstein coconspirators who should be investigated and prosecuted.
I also began collecting 218 signatures for the discharge petition to force a vote on Epstein Files Transparency Act II.
Let me walk you through what happened one hour before Trump announced the five day moratorium on Iran strikes.
$1.5 billion in notional S&P E-mini futures contracts. Four to six times normal activity.
One hour before the announcement.
Simultaneously, $192 million in crude oil futures purchased at the same time.
They made between $300 and $400 million dollars off those trades.
Trump claimed he spoke to an Iranian official to negotiate the moratorium.
The Iranians said that person doesn't exist and the conversation never happened.
This is not the first time.
It has happened multiple times. He says something. The trade goes on. He says another thing. The market moves.
But whatever you call it — they are laughing at you and they are laughing at me while they do it.
Hunter Biden sold a painting and Washington lost its mind.
These people are making hundreds upon hundreds of millions of dollars trading on information that only exists inside the most powerful office in the world.
I think we are dramatically underreporting how much money is actually being made here.
This isn't politics anymore.
This is a financial operation running out of the White House.
Underrated truth: People who want to be in your life make it obvious. They reach out. They follow through. They create time. The most honest form of communication isn’t words, it’s effort. And the absence of effort says a lot. Listen closely.
"The Federal Government today pays more in interest on the debt than we do in budget for the Department of Defense. We pay $1.2B a year in JUST interest on debt. Total government spending is about $7T. Interest payments are $1.2T. DOD is $800B a year. Total debt is $35T and it adds another $1T of debt every 100 days."
@newrepublic @lfeatherz I think you missed an opportunity to discuss the amazing science that was used in the project. I understand you had an agenda with the piece but you are doing science a disservice.
BREAKING -- Trump RAISES prescription drug costs by as much as 4200%.
He just reversed all the cost caps Biden negotiated for anyone on Medicare or Medicaid, over 120 MILLION Americans.
He's pro Big Pharma -- and pro Big Insurance.
He doesn't care about you. It was all LIES.
I submitted my resignation last week…my 2 year term was already up 🤷♂️😅
I was honored to serve as co-chair of the President’s Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition. My fellow council members - unpaid volunteers like me - were hardworking, talented people who inspired me every day. I’m proud of what we accomplished on behalf of the American people…like a historic partnership between the White House and every major sports league to increase access to sports and health programs for kids.
I hope @realdonaldtrump exercises his presidential authority so the Council can continue to advocate for fitness and good health for all Americans. These are bipartisan issues…nonpartisan issues.
May God give you the wisdom, Mr. President, to put politics and name calling aside…and instead lift up the everyday people working to bring America together. Let’s build longer tables….
Why is the SEC looking into my purchase of Twitter/X?
Everyday it’s something different.
One week it’s the Biden Administration, another week it’s the SEC, and another week it’s someone else.
I’m literally just trying to protect free speech, build electric cars, and put humans on Mars.
Why don’t they like me?
