BREAKING: A source close to Iranian officials says Tehran has documented a pattern of oil market manipulation tied to Axios reports and Trump administration insiders, including evidence of a $9 billion insider trading operation linked to Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff. Some of the documented timeline from the $9 billion insider profit: Between April and May 2026, a series of suspiciously timed trades in oil futures markets preceded major Iran war announcements—each tied to reporting by Axios. On March 23, approximately $500–580 million in shorts were placed 15 minutes before Trump announced he was postponing strikes on Iran. Oil dropped. On April 7, roughly $950–960 million in shorts were placed hours before Trump announced a two-week ceasefire with Iran. Oil fell around 15 percent. On April 17, around $760 million in shorts were placed 20 minutes before Iran's foreign minister announced the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. Oil dropped. On April 21, approximately $430 million in shorts were placed 15 minutes before Trump extended the ceasefire. Oil dropped again. On May 6, nearly $920 million to $1.7 billion in crude oil shorts were placed approximately 70 minutes before an Axios scoop claimed the U.S. and Iran were near a "14-point agreement." Oil dropped 12 percent. Traders made an estimated $125 million. Iran called the report "the Americans' wish list." Previously, a senior Iranian official told investigative outlet Drop Site News that Tehran privately warned JD Vance during Switzerland talks that Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff were "abusing" negotiations—"more interested in exploiting insider knowledge to profit in financial markets than reaching a deal."
Trump’s 300+ bank accounts with Capital One were closed in 2021 because they detected financial activity that had “characteristics of money laundering.”
It’s one thing after another with this f**king mob boss who moonlights as president of the United States.

More than enough to start an investigation. Of course, no one in congress has the balls and Trump will give out pardons like candy.
After all the years you spent self immolating to defend and promote this shitshow, any buyers remorse whatsoever?
None. Maybe bring back Bill Clinton and the policies Dems ran on 30 years ago and we can talk.
And what policy of dems has changed that would actually have any effect on your life?
Acceptance of the LBTQ community wouldn't effect anyone negatively outside of maybe women in sports. However, very few trans even play sports and if they have transitioned, they may not have any advantage in the sport. There are more arguments about trans in sports than actual trans in sports.
DEI existed long before Clinton and will return after the current clown leaves office
woke is nothing but a lazy term the right uses to scare people away from the left. just like accusations of socialists and communists because it makes some people think of Russia and other past adversaries due to not understanding what the terms actually mean.
So in what way has the dem party changed that would have a negative effect on the average American?
The dems haven't changed enough to be worse than what is happening under Trump and the effect his choices are having on every American. Trump tariffs and the iran war (which apparently is being used to fill their pockets with insider information) are both raising prices at the stores. And we still have yet to see that concept of a health plan that trump touted. People can bash obamacare all they want but Trump and republicans don't have anything better to offer.
It's also not about fiscal responsibility because our debt has done nothing but skyrocket under Trump in both of his terms.
So the fear of the alternative is unfounded and overblown IMO. It is just the only way to defend ones vote for Trump and try to sound sane because there is no defense for what Trump has done.
@hurryinghoosiers all the things we as a nation expect from our government the Dems don’t care about. Anyone who even votes for a moderate Dem is a fool. Until they eliminate the cancer of progressives and socialists you can’t give Dems a voice or run the risk. From dog catcher to president we must vote republican. Even if they’re the evil aloha kind. Aloha pub. Maga pub. Doesn’t matter. Just vote republican 💪🙏🙌
@twenty in 2016 the buffoons attracted to the buffoon loyally voted for Trump in the primary while the good sane Republican candidates split the majority of the sane Republican vote between them.

He doesn't have a blind trust like other Presidents he just claims to have turned over control of his businesses to his sons. You honestly don't think he's talking to his sons about these business deals? Change the name of those involved with this corruption to the Biden family and you'd be losing your mind. You lost your mind about far less than this concerning the Biden family. Hypocrisy is a primary MAGA trait and you've got it bad.
Your community college (drop out?) Twitter Twit certainly knows that his followers are gullible fools.
Anyone who continues to prop up this filthy dirty president is as bad as he is.
Nah, we just love our country & see him as the best way to keep it. I get it, you’re probably one of the have-nots that would rather align with socialists, Muslims, repeat criminals, & the rest of your coalition that wants to replace America with something else. We’re just not being controlled by a hatred for the man. His actions will harm my family much less than any Dem getting elected. His future is more attractive to me than yours. It really is that simple no matter how you want to paint it.
If you truly believe that the breadth and scope of Trump's staggering and unprecedented self-dealing, grifting and corruption is a nothingburger, then you're as morally bankrupt as he is.
"No man who is corrupt, no man who condones corruption in others, can possibly do his duty by the community." -Theodore Roosevelt
I believe his corruption will impact me & mine, as well as the rest of America far less than socialism, mass immigration, fraud of our social assistance, lax criminal justice, unsecured elections, just to name a few off of the top of my head. You think Trump selling a billion dollars worth of bitcoin impacts anyone more than these? I haven’t condoned shit, so your dishonest assessment of my claims is obvious but does speak to your morality & character.
What's much more imminent than socialism is a corrupt strongman regime running the United States, if we're not there already.
Social assistance fraud can be - - and is being - - addressed in state and federal court. Our elections are secure notwithstanding Trump's incessant lies to the contrary. "Election security" proposals are a solution in search of a problem. And don't talk to me about a lax criminal justice system when the guy you're propping up not only pardoned violent offenders including cop-beaters but wanted to fucking PAY them for it, and installed his personal lawyer as head of the Justice Department to do his personal bidding.
What effect does the current “strongman”have on me & mine? Is the fraud being addressed because of Dems? California is passing laws making it illegal for citizens to investigate fraud. You think Tim Walz would be leading the charge on fraud if left to his own devices? You talking about Trump’s number of pardons is stepping over millions to pick up a nickel on a national level. Our elections are not secure, if you want to argue whether the impact is enough so be it, but asking for proof of something that can’t be proven will always support your argument. If no one has broken into my house, that doesn’t mean it’s secure, just means it hasn’t happened yet. Maybe it never would, I’m not willing to find out…
Gas and Oil prices being manipulated higher for his personal gain and service members needlessly killed, also for that personal gain. That doesn't effect you and yours? Luck you....
