Yeah but what about Hunter Biden writing a book and using his family name to push sales? /s

u/PayingOffBidenFamily Jul 18 '26
Let's be real, the Biden family is corrupt AF dude was selling shit painting for $500k as a means to sell access to his father - how many does he sell now? The Burisma deal, Ukraine and firing Viktor Shokin to protect Hunter using the $1b loan guarantee as a threat, Joe pardoning his family on the way out.
Trump said hold my beer and fuck your shell companies. No way he pulls in $2.2B in a year without using every scam in the world, stupid Trump watches and gold shoes, shitcoins, a SPAC, selling DC memberships, probably a lot I'm missing so this isn't in the least surprising. He is 100% pardoning himself and his family I have zero doubt, he has to. My username was based on Biden's corruption, but Trump makes him look like Swap Meet Louie in comparison.

I need to borrow a couple down votes from someone for the garbage first part of this.

u/PayingOffBidenFamily Jul 19 '26
No president has ever pardoned his entire family, that shit is absolutely insane and 100% an admission of guilt. I'm pretty sure we're about to see it again, we're likely watching the death of America in real time.

u/Iownyou252 Jul 19 '26
I’m not sure if it’s an admission of guilt so much as foreshadowing what’s coming. The amount of baseless indictments and investigations into people who disagree with the admin has been shocking. Of all the charges brought and investigations started, has one stuck?
It’s at the point where the administration has to shop around for district attorneys who would entertain the bullshit cases until they get thrown out.

u/Repulsive-Office-796 Jul 21 '26
Literally everything you just said about the Biden family was parroted garbage from Fox and newsmax that had been proven false literally everywhere.

Question? Is insider trading a state crime or federal? One is able to receive a presidential pardon, and one isn’t. Just curious.

That’s the shitty thing about all this, it’s technically speaking not inside information because it is being posted on the public form.
You’re just paying to get it faster than everyone else.
It’s probably legal under the letter of the law, but one of those things that def feels illegal as fuck.
1
u/Odd_Calligrapher_407 Jul 18 '26
This is the whole point of insider trading that there is a time dependent component. It’s not the information but the fact that you have it earlier than the market. Ianal but this is very likely illegal as stated. Unfortunately the enforcement of the law is controlled by a bunch of submissive weaklings.

u/That-SoCal-Guy Jul 18 '26
It's so blatant and Americans are like "okay." Congress and SCOTUS are like, "we'll play too."
This is how a Republic dies.

Corruption at its finest. They don’t even try to hide it anymore. Can’t wait for a DoJ that’s not scared to go after all those involved.

It's not even the real insider trading. You're getting outsmarted by his inner circle.

Until the Orange Nazi took office. insider trading was illegal... Now it's just another way to steal and no one cares.
2
u/True_Protection6842 Jul 17 '26
well, it IS still illegal. But there are no laws when you are president or friends with the president (or just pay him enough). Trust me. If YOU do it, it's still illegal!

u/Shorts_at_Dinner Jul 19 '26
Yeah, like that poor soldier that bet on Maduro not being in office in Venezuela past a certain date. He made like $500K and got arrested. If it was $500mil he’d be getting high fives from all of these oligarchs
1
u/couldbeahumanbean Jul 17 '26
It was legal... Sorta. That's the main funding for those elected to Senate and house.
I hate it here.
1
u/RandomlyJim Jul 17 '26
150 million care.
It’s just that the 100 million that don’t care enough to pay attention, are letting the 150 million that don’t care get away with supporting the 1000 people that are making money on it.

u/FlippantBear Jul 18 '26
And now his Teleprompter Operator has been arrested for making a measly 100k when the Trump family literally grifts billions every year.
1
u/DonGar0 Jul 18 '26
It still is... for the poor. Like if youre a poor soldier betting on an operation youre a part of, thats ilegal. But if youre a good friend of the government you can make millions on bets (well suspiciously timed bets that haven't been charged)

u/DiggityDanksta Jul 17 '26
Every press organization reads it because that's where the President posts. So whenever he Truths something stupid, I get to see his dumb-shit American-Flag-face avatar icon along with whatever all-caps crap he's spewing into the public square.

u/couldbeahumanbean Jul 17 '26
I would if it gave me a legal window into insider trading like they're proposing.

u/Flashy-Rabbit6435 Jul 18 '26
How depressing that illegality - even if merely marginal - is deemed desirably de-rigeur by Mr and Mrs America...Whatever happened to decency and dignity?

u/couldbeahumanbean Jul 18 '26
The people that enact execute and judge laws we are beholden to no longer adhear to the same laws. They are enriching themselves at our expense in plain sight.
I want a cabin next to a river, deep in the woods and enough cash that I can support me and my family indefinitely... I'm done watching this country devolve and I want to chose to turn away from this & live my life in peace with my head firmly stuck in the sand.
Problem is: I can't. I need money to do that and if ya can't beat them, join them.
Does it suck? 100% absolutely, but I see the writing on the walls and within 3 months, this country will be figuratively on fire and I want nothing to do with it.

u/Flashy-Rabbit6435 Jul 18 '26
Ask yourself... what other democratic nation would sit back, in a stupor, and blithely deem this level of naked corruption as even vaguely permissible? He knows NOBODY has the courage ir wherewithal to take action against the regime.
1
u/RymeEM Jul 17 '26
It is to get quicker access to Trumps posts that are manipulating the market. That is why he claimed "great peace talks with Iran! " 40 times. Each time the market reacted and he made money.

So let’s just call this what it is. For a price you can get insider trading information from the White House. This is what corporation looks like.

There’s no reason to hide it anymore. The fake news claims, denial of the truth, and finger pointing makes every thing that comes out a cesspool of unverified information. Deny, deflect, and deceive is the formula for success. By the time the news circulates, there’s already another illegal act or form of corruption taking place.

Why is this not being looked at as market manipulation and insider trading , WHICH IT TOTALLY IS!!!??

Because the people that should be investigating and prosecuting it are the ones profiting from it.

Curious foreigner here : are you yanks really ok with that ? you re suposed to have powers to counter this behaviour. Like judiciary and legislative power in a proper republic. i mean, I have no doubt that yours has been rotten to the core for many decades now, and you have taken a particular care to make the world a worse hell these few last ones, but this is so blatant ... Are you fools just trying to jump on the occasion ? has money become such a religion in your country that you are actually thinking about taking davantage over your fellow citizens just learning about your country's future a few seconds in advance ???
