Democrats Demand Probe into Trump Allies’ Stock Purchases
Following a Guardian investigation, two senior Democrats are calling for an investigation into share purchases made by Venture Global executives. These purchases, totaling almost $12 million each, were made shortly after a meeting with White House officials who subsequently issued a key regulatory permit. Senators Wyden and Van Hollen expressed concerns about potential conflicts of interest, with Wyden drawing parallels to past Trump administration controversies, particularly regarding energy policy. Several members of congress have pointed to the timing of the stock trades and the possibility of insider trading.
