REVEALED: Trump BUYS Palantir, PUMPS STOCK

TL;DR

Trump bought up to $630,000 in Palantir stock in Q1 2026, then publicly praised the company on Truth Social, raising blatant insider trading concerns.

Key Points

• 1.Trump disclosed hundreds of millions in stock trades during Q1 2026. Financial Times reported transactions in Nvidia, Palantir, Paramount, Boeing, Tesla, Apple, Meta, Visa, Citi, Qualcomm, and GE Aerospace — all companies whose executives joined Trump's trip to Beijing.
• 2.Trump purchased up to $630,000 of Palantir stock in Q1 2026, then publicly pumped it. In March alone he made at least seven Palantir purchases totaling $530,000, and weeks later posted on Truth Social that 'Palantir Technologies has proven to have great warfighting capabilities.'
• 3.Boeing and Intel trades coincide directly with government actions benefiting those companies. Trump's government took a ~10% ownership stake in Intel, his envoy Paolo Zampoli told foreign officials 'buy Boeing to make the president happy,' and China agreed to purchase 200 Boeing planes from the Beijing trip.
• 4.Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery also appeared in Trump's disclosed trades. The two companies are involved in a $110 billion merger currently awaiting approval from US regulators, giving Trump direct regulatory leverage over stocks he holds.
• 5.Cash Patel used Navy SEALs and government resources for a leisure snorkel tour at Pearl Harbor's USS Arizona memorial. Two Navy SEAL boats transported Patel and nine others to snorkel at the underwater tomb of 900 sailors — a site where even swimwear is typically banned — directly contradicting his past criticism of FBI Director Chris Ray's government-funded travel.
• 6.Katie Miller, wife of Trump aide Stephen Miller, is in talks for a podcast deal with CBS's MAGA-aligned owners. Her channel has only 58,000 subscribers and averages under 5,000 views per video, while CBS is seeking Trump administration approval for an $11 billion merger — a clear pay-to-play arrangement.
