This grifter needs to be jailed now
You misspelled hanged until dead.
Americans wouldn’t. China does.
I heard the French have a solution for this
Impeach. 3 times at least before it will work.
LoL - who could impeach him?!
you.
actually… edit…
I‘d love to… - but I‘m not even American.
Neither is Elon and he’s running the entire government.
Wont stop them from trying
Only the house of representatives has the power to impeach. This isn’t a thing “everyone” gets to do.
Can everyone petition, encourage the members of the house of representatives to impeach, assuming there are solid reasons to.
Clearly impeaching him again will work this time guys. Just one more time guys, that’ll get him! /s
Yup 3rd time the charm as the ancient saying goes.
happy germany noises
Soo you are saying. This time we can make it to vladivostok?
He has like 30 something felonies and openly admitted to rigging the voting computers. The man could commit murder on stage and still somehow continue being president.
Got a source? I remember him saying Elon was great at the voting computers but that’s not exactly the same thing.
Parent commenter may be recalling this story but not sure
Beginning at 2:31:24, the full quote reads:
[Musk] journeyed to Pennsylvania where he spent like a month and a half campaigning for me in Pennsylvania, and he’s a popular guy, and he was very effective. And he knows those computers better than anybody, all those computers, those vote counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like, in a landslide, so it was pretty good, it was pretty good. So, thank you to Elon.

Lib qanon.
He did? We have him on tape trying to get votes that didn’t exist, but haven’t heard much about voting computers being rigged.
He vaguely implied Elon was rigging them, saying he had a “little secret” that was going to win them the election
Vaguely implied is very different to openly admitted lol
Just telling you what I know I’m not the one who said he openly admitted it
I’m not implying you do, just acknowledging what you say is very different than what someone else says. Also not saying I don’t believe you, I do.
Political ideologues don’t care about reality.
He made the announcement at 1:18, but there was a high volume spike in SPY at 1:02. He then introduced some friends, like Charles Schwab, in the white house later and said they had made billions. This crash was also the first time MTG bought stocks.
Should be an SEC investigstion with actual consequences for once. Probably won’t be, but there should.
Hasn’t Elon fired most of the SEC staff, to make sure they don’t get in their way…
Hahaha an SEC investigation? I haven’t seen a single working class win at the federal level for about 16 years now
100% he is making bank off this. So are his buddies. What DOGE was all about, setting up the US Gov’t to be fleeced as a cash cow for the crime family. We need these criminals removed and full security audit on our entire gov’t computer system. Every US citizen is currently at risk due to negligence but these fools. That doesn’t even cover the extensive list of civil rights violations and oh…you know, constitution violations. But it matters not unless the are actual consequences. But money makes those go away.
It’s not even clever. Him and Elon are made for the same hell.
I mean it’s not like he went on Truth Social shortly before he announced the pause and told people it was a good time to buy stocks or anything… right?
According to my mom, this is a good thing because he’s helping regular people make money in the stock market.
The MAGAs are actually cheering this because they think they’re being invited into the club, when he’s just brushing some crumbs off the table for them to fight over in the alley.
anyone else buy the dip? because you know all his criminal friends did.
I don’t, but yes this is very blatant
If the FTC/SEC were staffed, they’d be very upset.
The acting chair of both, SpoogeCannon, of DOGE, has released a statement voicing his concern about this. He said he’ll get to the bottom of where this picture came from and put a stop to it.
DJI with source.

Just search for DJI and go to 1pm on the 9th.
But OP was on SPY.
must be the biggest insider trading event in history
The biggest most beautiful insider trading, you’ve never seen bigger insider trading. String him up!
“I get it, people are upset. It’s a big deal, a great deal, it might even be the biggest deal in the history of deals. The Democrats are mad about it, very mad. ‘He can’t do that,’ they say. They’re poor losers. They tried to make good deals like this. Tried many times. They failed, and they’re mad because I didn’t. I make the biggest, best deals. But their deals, those are no big deal. I get it, they’re mad. Mad that I did what they couldn’t. The Democrats lie, they say ‘President Trump, you can’t do that.’ But I could do it. I did do it, and I proved them wrong. Just like when I beat Biden in 2024. They said I couldn’t do it. I did it. Just like when I beat Hillary in 2020. I couldn’t do it, I did it. Just like with Obama, I did it. They keep saying I can’t do this or I can’t do that. They say it’s impossible to do these things. They say many things, most of them wrong. They don’t want to look bad, weak. The Democrats, Antifa, they’re weak, so they lie. They think everyone is weak, just like them. That’s fine, that’s fine. You see, they’re copying me now. They see a strong leader, very successful businessman, and they want to be one too. They copy me. They say what I say, do what I do, and they try to stop me. They want to be me, but they don’t want me to be me, so they lie and cheat. They rigged the economy, set it to collapse with forced ‘vaccines’ and wasteful D-E-I. I come here with my tremendous plan, going to make America great again. Bring all the business and jobs back. The Democrats cheat again, they go on CNN. They go on CNN, sell their stocks, rig the market. They didn’t think. Stocks are going to go up, way up. Numbers like you’ve never seen before. And they sold. The tariffs, I paused them. They thought they could cheat, and I turned it around. They lost big. Really big. Real Americans, we’re fine. Better than fine. The Democrats, they’re not fine. They lost, they’re mad. Only the Democrats are upset, it’s fine. Nobody should be upset about that. They played their hand and lost, and they’re mad. Don’t listen to them, they’ll get over it. They lie and they cheat, and they lose every time. We’re winning, winning big. So big. We’re going to win even bigger next week. 300% tariffs on Democrat businesses. No more foreign workers. More jobs for America.”
I can’t even tell if this is real or satire anymore
Also all those who traded based on the information.
String him up!
This is the only appropriate response, but Americans would prefer their symbolic cinematic marches with idols giving speeches as opposed to any real solutions.
Do you want to fight the Secret Service?
I want the secret service to uphold their sworn oath to the constitution.
I want lots of things that aren’t gonna happen.
There must be a way to surface this info? Surely there are know “insider” accounts one can track?
I wouldn’t think it would be public.
There’s a chat we can get added to I’m sure of it
Just install Signal, say you’re a journalist, and wait to be added.
What is the source of this chart? I’d like to use the image on other sites, but I can’t without knowing what the source is.
If you plan to use it, you should know that there was a separate “good news”-event at that point in time. It would not surprise me if insider trading happened, but that spike could also be from the bond auction. As much as I want the US to lose their influence in the world, it’s important to not jump to conclusions for political reasons. The spike should be investigated properly, but at this point the US might be too corrupt for that to happen or have consequences.
Thank you. That is good to know.
It’s SPY with volume. Very standard chart for probably the biggest ETF tracking the S&P.
Thank you.

I bought the dip once, years ago. Made like, I donno. Couple hundred bucks. Sold all my crypto at the same time. That was cumulative with the other thing. Made a couple hundred bucks.
That’s the great thing about capitalism: anyone can make a ton of money, so long as they have a few tons of money.
Nope because that only works if you have money to buy with
I was just talking to my coworker at lunch that I’ll create an account and buy the dip. By the time we got back to our desks, I saw the news of the pause and everything shot up.
By the time it hits the mainstream media, it’s too late for you or me.
You’d have to be watching the speech, ready to react within a minute it two and you could have caught most of it.
I got a little lucky in that I filed my taxes on Sunday and made my 2024 IRA contributions then. Only some of the funds were available Monday but I was able to buy. I would’ve bought regardless of the price (I don’t really time things) but it worked out nicely.
Yeah, no shit. His first term was 100% him playing golf and using the treasury as his personal piggy bank, why the fuck would we expect anything different this time around? Wake me up when someone actually does something about it.
You’ll have eternal sleep
When I’m in a doormat competition but my competition is the US people:
Sounds like you’ll get to meet Bender and Fry
Hey! I resemble that statement!
I feel no one looks at truth social cause screw it but shortly before the announcement of the pause on tariffs trump did post to buy now.
The volume spike was an hour after that post
isnt there a video of him talking about how much him and his friends made from it? its not really an accusation at this point, he manipulated the market.
There was definitely a rumor that caused a market spike two days ago until the white house immediately called it “fake news” which the media took at Trump’s word as they always so gullibly do. Well as it turns, out, this “fake news” got the duration of the pause right to the exact number of days.
Now everyone seems to be pretending they don’t remember that this happened just two days ago and I just don’t get it. Shouldn’t somebody be asking why some random people on Twitter seemed to know Trump’s plans in advance?
Maybe Trump got the idea from that rumor. Self-fulfilling prophecy. /s
You don’t even need the “/s” on that statement.
Just in case anybody would think that I thought that that was a the truth.
Edit: Funny grammar
I mean, dude literally commited treason. “Market manipulation” is quite tame in comparison.
Multiple treasons, and all the people who would punish him for his market manipulation just benefitted from it so they’re only going to thank him
Sometimes “The Untouchables” are best brought down by financial crimes
Russians and everyone else out there who ever wanted a slice of the pie have been attacking our social discourse for decades, amplifying the worst voices on both sides of every single issue so that people tune out and stop caring. This is the known doctrine for undermining democracies.
Most people right now STILL don’t care, at least not enough to have an opinion or be bothered to do anything. This is the result of deliberate sabotage against our nation and the number of people who really understand this is so small that it doesn’t matter, it won’t be enough. Even if this wave of corruption is ended tomorrow, there are thousands more oligarchs and grifters waiting in the halls to move right in.
Insert George Carlin quote number 18647
Shit piss fuck cunt cocksucker motherfucker and tits.
And since we are now in episode two of this shit show there are three more words: fart, turd, and twat.
Isn’t that quote no 12653?
12653 is a quote from when he voiced Mr. Conductor on Thomas the Tank Engine. Think it was quote 14694-a.
Ringo did it better
#notmymrconductor
There is no way he-
[George Carlin] was the second narrator for Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends, narrating from the first to the fourth series and played Mr. Conductor from series two to three on Shining Time Station and in the spin-off series Mr Conductor’s Thomas Tales, after Ringo Starr left the series to focus on his music career.
I had no idea. Thank you for leading me to this lore.
What a strange and beautiful world…
Bonus content re-dub: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77f5M7RyehI .I think I added a stage on my rocket to hell laughing at this.
And? Who’s going to do anything about it? The stupidest people in this country gave a con man unilateral power to do anything he wants, what did they expect?
Is it 125% for China and 10% for everyone else currently?.. for 90 days?
Or is it 10℅ across the board for 90 days?
I’ll wait for his next tweet to make all my speculation pointless. Fuck this guy.
The former. 125% for China, 10% for “everyone who didn’t retaliate”
Except the EU who did but apparently Trump didn’t know about it until a reporter asked him. Only the best people.
This is why countries need to make export tariffs in retaliation and leave them on during the chaos. Let the prices of everything in the US soar but allow them to collect none of it.
