🚀 TRUMP BOUGHT UP TO $5M IN SPACEX BONDS, THEN SIGNED A SPACE POLICY THAT BENEFITS SPACEX 2 DAYS LATER
Ethics filings released Oct 8 show:
- Aug 18: Trump’s accounts bought $1M-$5M in SpaceX bonds
- Aug 20: He signed a national security memorandum to cut red tape for commercial space transportation, targeting 1,000+ launches a year by 2030
SpaceX is a major federal contractor and stands to gain directly from the policy.
The White House says the portfolio is managed by independent third parties, Trump has no say in trades, and there is no conflict of interest.
Richard Painter, Bush’s former chief ethics lawyer, says it “gives the appearance of corruption,” though he didn’t call it illegal.
