Trump Media: More than 10 firms pay up to $100,000 a month for fast-access data feed

u/big-papito 1 1 day ago

I actually don't care because just under a half of Americans are OK with blatant corruption. Once the population gives up on basic laws and decency, there is no point in having a civilized country or pretend that we are one. Burn it all down and start from scratch.

u/king_of_the_potato_p 1 1 day ago

Blatant corruption is all “sides” and has been around since before our grandparents.

u/StickyNebbs 1 1 day ago

greased hands and unsavory back room deals are far and away from the self enrichment that the trump family has been doing. i know it gets memed to death but jimmy carter had to put his warehouse business in a blind trust that did so poorly he actually lost money on it. Trump has made over 2 billion dollars in 18 months

u/MiltTheStilt 1 1 day ago

Good luck with that. If they win they’ll be cowards and say that it’s better to “let the country heal” instead of going after him. Just look at what happened when they had four years in power after Jan 6.

u/CloudStrife012 1 1 day ago

More like if dems are to put a stop to insider trading, what does that mean for Nancy Pelosi?

Nearly all of them really. People somehow think there’s actually a red vs blue when that’s just the dog and pony show. They seem to work pretty damn well together when it comes to lining their pockets.

Nothing If Pelosi is guilty of securities fraud or insider trading, why hasn’t Trump’s DoJ run by his personal attorney charged her ?

u/bin10pac 1 14 hours ago

Why would Trump want to investigate a fellow politician for corruption? He's not stupid. By not investigating he tells Democrats what things are off limits. He is telling them: I won't come after your self-enrichment, you don't come after mine.

u/UnableChard2613 1 23 hours ago

The firm I work with absolutely scans the news for their options trading strategy. Trump's twitter account probably has it's own special high-speed feed specifically because every ms they start trading this before other firms is worth millions of dollars. Having access to the tweets before the general public is like a gold mine. I don't think it's bribes, it's a whole new kind of corruption.
