The only reason he reversed course is because the bond market was shitting the bed. If no one was buying our shitty bonds, then they couldn't issue the debt to pay for the massive tax cuts for the rich they're about to pass. The insider trading wasn't supposed to start until the market bottomed, they will absolutely try this same play again in three months.

The American legal system will be unable and/or unwilling to deal with it. Best chance is to send HIM to El Salvador if he ever relinquishes the office.

Absolutely not. Crimes committed within the u.s. such as treason get adjudicated in the u.s.

The American legal system, fucked as it already was, absolutely can handle this, or could. Was. Even I have fond memories of the U.S. Marshals banging at my door, wearing obviously baggy shirts. That shit was handled by the court.

The reason why it isn’t working is someone is actively breaking it

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

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.

I don't, but yes this is very blatant

There must be a way to surface this info? Surely there are known "insider" accounts one can track?

If the FTC/SEC were staffed, they'd be very upset.
