Trump Executed 3,600 Stock Trades in Q1, Bought Nvidia, Dell, Then Made a 'Stock Tip,' Sparking Conflict-of-Interest Controversy

Former President Donald Trump executed 3,642 individual stock trades in Q1 2026, averaging about 60 trades per day, according to a recent OGE 278-T disclosure. This breaks from the modern presidential tradition of using blind trusts. The filings reveal Trump sold large positions in Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft while making significant new purchases in AI and semiconductor firms like NVIDIA, Broadcom, and Intel. Notably, he bought $1-5 million worth of Dell stock on February 10. Three months later, on May 8, he publicly urged Americans to "buy Dell" at a White House event; the stock has since risen 96%. His Intel purchases began in early March, after which the stock surged 150%. The U.S. government had taken a 9.9% stake in Intel in August 2025. These transactions, occurring close to related policy actions or public endorsements, have ignited significant controversy over potential conflicts of interest. While the White House maintains full compliance with the STOCK Act, critics highlight the unprecedented scale of trading and the timing coinciding with his official duties and donors' interests.

A court ruled Anthropic's scanning and destroying books for AI training as fair use, while its Claude platform launched on AWS. Google's new video model 'Omni' was leaked. In crypto/Web3, Trump-linked companies transferred $12M in crypto assets before a China visit. BlackRock chose Ethereum for tokenized funds, and a hacker stole $174k via a malicious NFT that tricked an AI. Jack Dorsey's first tweet NFT plummeted from $2.9M to under $5. In chips/hardware, TSMC approved an additional $20B for its Arizona plant. Apple's Tim Cook and Elon Musk will accompany Trump to China, while Nvidia's Jensen Huang is notably absent.

Trump Rejects Iran Peace Proposal — Bitcoin Breaks $82,000

Bitcoin has surged nearly 30% since the US-Iran war began on February 28, outpacing gold and the S&P 500 despite ongoing market turmoil. The rally faces potential catalysts this week, including a Senate vote on the hawkish Kevin Warsh for Fed chair and markup of the significant CLARITY Act, both viewed as bullish for Bitcoin. The conflict, triggered by a US airstrike killing Iran's Supreme Leader, continues with no near-term resolution. After former President Trump rejected Iran's peace proposal demanding reparations and asset unfreezing, Bitcoin initially dipped but quickly rebounded, breaking above $82,000 and liquidating over $60 million in shorts. With Israeli PM Netanyahu insisting on dismantling Iran's uranium sites, hopes for a quick ceasefire have faded, underscoring Bitcoin's divergent performance amid deepening geopolitical strain and rising oil prices.

WLFI Responds to Rumors of 'Trump Family Exit': Bank License Approval Has Entered Final Stage

Amidst rumors that the Trump family had quietly exited World Liberty Financial (WLFI), Donald Trump Jr. and co-founder Zach Witkoff addressed the claims at the Miami Consensus conference. Trump Jr. dismissed the rumors as originating from the removal of the Trump family's names from the company's website and subsequent amplification by social media bots. Both affirmed that Don Jr. and Eric Trump remain co-founders. The conversation also covered WLFI's ongoing legal battle with Tron founder Justin Sun. After Sun sued WLFI last month alleging managerial misconduct, WLFI filed a countersuit, accusing Sun of spreading false information and shorting the WLFI token. Witkoff stated the lawsuit was a "last resort" and filed with evidence. Significantly, Witkoff revealed that WLFI's application for a national trust bank charter from the OCC is in the "final stages" of securing conditional approval. This charter is crucial for the company's USD1 stablecoin operations but has drawn criticism from Democratic lawmakers like Senator Elizabeth Warren, who has labeled the application potential evidence of corruption.

Memecoin Millionaires Line Up For Trump’s Exclusive Luncheon

A crypto investor paid only $500 to attend an exclusive luncheon with former President Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago, reflecting a significant decline in enthusiasm compared to previous events. The TRUMP memecoin has lost over 93% of its value since its peak, falling from around $45 to under $3. Despite the collapse, nearly 300 top holders are expected to attend the gathering, which critics argue is an attempt to buy access to the president. Notable attendees include key figures from the industry like Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino and Bitcoin advocate Anthony Pompliano. However, Tron founder Justin Sun, the largest holder of the token, is absent amid a lawsuit against a crypto platform co-founded by Trump’s sons. Ethics watchdogs have raised concerns about conflicts of interest and lack of financial transparency.

Four Outrageous Details Hidden in Justin Sun's Lawsuit Against WLFI

Cryptocurrency billionaire Justin Sun has filed a lawsuit against World Liberty Financial (WLFI), accusing its executives of fraud, theft, and other violations. The complaint highlights four key allegations: First, it details the controversial history of WLFI co-founder Chase Herro, including past scams, a prison record, tax liens, and alleged visits to Jeffrey Epstein’s private island. Second, Sun claims WLFI secretly upgraded its smart contract without token holder approval, granting itself the power to freeze and seize WLFI tokens—a move allegedly used against Sun. WLFI defended the action as necessary to protect user interests. Third, the dispute may have been fueled by Sun’s $100 million purchase of TRUMP meme tokens issued by a Trump-affiliated project. WLFI reportedly objected, though the purchase was allegedly approved by a Trump family member involved with both projects. Finally, Sun accuses WLFI of operating an unlicensed money transmission business due to its centralized control over token transfers, potentially violating federal and state laws. WLFI CEO Zach Witkoff dismissed the suit as a desperate distraction from Sun’s own misconduct. Herro did not directly address the allegations.

Justin Sun Sues Trump Family: What $75 Million Bought Was Only a Blacklist

Justin Sun, founder of Tron, has filed a lawsuit in federal court against World Liberty Financial (WLF), alleging he was made the "primary target of a fraudulent scheme" after investing $75 million. Sun claims the investment secured him an advisor title and WLFI tokens, which were later frozen by WLF, causing "hundreds of millions in losses." The dispute began in late 2024 when Sun's investment helped revive WLF's struggling token sale, which ultimately raised $550 million. Shortly after, the SEC dropped its lawsuit against Sun following Donald Trump's inauguration. However, relations soured when Sun refused WLF's demands for additional funding. In August 2025, WLF added a "blacklist" function to its smart contract, allowing it to unilaterally freeze tokens. Sun's holdings, worth approximately $107 million, were frozen, and he was threatened with token destruction. The lawsuit highlights WLF's structure, which directs 75% of token sale profits to the Trump family, who had earned $1 billion by December 2025. WLF's CEO is Zach Witkoff, son of U.S. Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff. The project faces scrutiny for opaque operations, including a controversial loan arrangement on the Dolomite platform, co-founded by a WLF advisor. Despite Sun's history with the SEC, the case underscores centralization risks within DeFi, as WLF controls governance and holds powers to freeze assets arbitrarily. Sun's tokens remain frozen as legal proceedings begin.

"Form Over Substance" Fed Hearing: Warsh Avoids Interest Rates, But Offers Reassurance for Crypto

Kevin Wash, nominee for Federal Reserve Chair, testified before the Senate Banking Committee, emphasizing his independence from former President Trump and stating that Trump never asked him to commit to specific interest rate decisions. Wash avoided extensive discussion on monetary policy but called for institutional reforms at the Fed, advocating for a gradual and cautious reduction of the balance sheet without clear signals on rate cuts. The hearing was seen as largely symbolic, with Wash’s confirmation hinging on political negotiations offstage, particularly whether Trump drops his investigation into current Chair Powell. Notably, Wash expressed a crypto-friendly stance, acknowledging digital assets as part of the U.S. financial services industry and committing to divest his own crypto holdings if confirmed. This marks a positive signal for the crypto market from a potential Fed leader.

Justin Sun Sues World Liberty Financial Over Token Freeze Dispute

Justin Sun, founder of Tron, has filed a lawsuit in a California federal court against World Liberty Financial (WLFI), a project backed by the Trump family. Sun alleges the project threatened to burn his tokens and froze them without providing a reason. He stated he resorted to litigation after failed attempts to resolve the matter directly with the team. The dispute centers around a new WLFI governance proposal that would lock tokens for founders and advisors for two years, release them gradually over three years, and burn 10% of the tokens. Sun criticized the plan as non-transparent and harmful, arguing it would permanently freeze tokens of holders who do not explicitly accept its terms. He had previously raised concerns that 76% of the voting power came from just 10 wallets. WLFI has denied Sun's claims as "baseless allegations," stating they have evidence and are prepared for a legal battle. Despite the lawsuit, Sun reaffirmed his support for former President Trump and his administration's crypto-friendly policies.

Under Political Pressure, Is the Federal Reserve Still Independent?

Amidst political pressure from former President Trump and congressional scrutiny, Kevin Warsh, nominated as Federal Reserve chair, argued that public comments from elected officials on interest rates do not fundamentally threaten the Fed’s operational independence. Instead, he emphasized that the real risk to the Fed’s autonomy lies in its failure to control inflation, which could erode public trust. Warsh also cautioned against the Fed overstepping into fiscal or social policy domains beyond its mandate. His remarks come as the Fed faces external pressures, including a Justice Department investigation into a renovation project and persistent inflation above the 2% target, exacerbated by rising energy prices. Warsh stressed that the Fed’s focus on its core mission—price stability—is essential to maintaining its credibility and independence.
