Overview
- Attorney General Pam Bondi sold $1–5 million in Trump Media shares and $250–500 thousand in warrants on April 2, 2025, according to financial disclosures.
- The stock sale coincided with President Trump's announcement of sweeping tariffs, which caused Trump Media’s stock to drop 13% in the following days.
- Bondi’s disclosures do not clarify whether the trades occurred before or after the tariffs were announced after the market closed that day.
- Under her ethics agreement, Bondi was required to divest her Trump Media holdings within 90 days of her confirmation, a deadline she met.
- The lack of precise timing in her disclosures has intensified scrutiny over potential insider trading and calls for stricter transparency rules, though no formal inquiry has been announced.
