News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Isn't this one big case of insider trading?
Well, yes. This is going to be one grift after another, with nazi stuff thrown in.
This is exactly it.
I believe so, but they're going to use the public tweet to argue that the tip was public. "It's not insider trading if it's all out in the open."
Mafioso shit.
That's honestly an interesting strategy. Trump is immune from the law so he can signal to his cronies using public social media posts and everyone walks away scott free
And the worst case scenario for him is people start reading his drivel to get in on the grift
It's market manipulation. Still a crime, though we all know nothing will be done about it.
Insider trading is not illegal per se. It comes with various restrictions depending on who you are but they don't apply to everybody.
This is just corrupt as shit, which is seemingly perfectly allowable.
Insider trading is where the one doing the trade has insider information. This "tweet" ("Truth"?) cannot be insider information by definition.
Could Trump administration figures do insider trading on the basis of more explicit insider information? Absolutely. Does this message prove any of that? No.
Correct, not insider trading, just an egregious abuse of power justifying his removal from office.
Plausible deniability - there was a public recommendation by a stable genius. Maybe people read his media site and follow his recommendations. Stranger things are happening every day
And orangeboi made himself above the law
