"'T]he sergeant tried to hide his proceeds by moving them several times, first to a foreign cryptocurrency vault, then to a personal crypto account and finally to a newly created brokerage account. [...] Sergeant Van Dyke sought to delete his Polymarket account, falsely claiming he had lost access to the email address associated with it.'
He also used a VPN to hide that he was trading from an Army computer.

"It seems that soldier, knowing what date the capture would be attempted, made upwards of $450,000 by placing anonymous bets on Polymarket on the timing and outcome of the operation — 13 bets in all, according to the indictment.
After stories about what The New York Times called 'unusual trades' started circulating, the soldier, a brain genius sergeant named Gannon Ken Van Dyke, tried to cover his tracks:"

Gary Legum reports that at least one of those engaging in ugly insider trading and profiteering with Trump-Hegseth's military ventures has been identified:
"On Thursday, the government announced it has indicted a special forces soldier from Fort Bragg who participated in the January operation to capture Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro."

1) Grateful to #CalMatters for their coverage of this profiteering by the #FossilFool majors2) A reminder that #profiteering only works with essential goods & services. That's why #Chevron et al con do so with near impunity. AND if we were powering mobility, from e-scooters to trains, with electricity from #renewables (wind, water, solar (#WWS) and advanced geothermal, we wouldn't be totally dependent on #FossilFuel. And profiteering would be harder to do.
Guess what? We have the technology to convert. Why do we let the FossilFools stop that conversion?
The real case for #PowerToThePeople by renewables.

"Marsh found 'a consistent pattern of spikes just hours, or sometimes minutes, before a social media post or media interview was made public.' Marsh notes a similar spike over Trump’s announcement of his 'Liberation Day' tariffs of last April."

"Today Nick Marsh of the BBC explained the fact pattern behind the general suspicion that someone is engaging in insider trading over Trump’s war announcements. After matching the president’s market-moving statements to the trade volume on a number of financial markets," (continued in /7)

"Trump’s 'grand strategy,' such as it is, cannot accurately be expressed in two words (“America First”), but in five:
What’s in it for me?
That’s it. That’s Trump’s entire calculus—on geopolitics, on domestic policy, on business deals, on public appearances, on which Mar-a-Lago-faced women to ogle by the omelette bar."

"There is no coherent plan. There's only an industrial-scale smash and grab.
Under this president, the United States does not have a grand strategy—that is, an overarching plan to marshal U.S. military, diplomatic, economic, technological, intelligence-gathering, and cultural power to achieve precise national objectives. That’s not how Donald operates. He’s all id."

"He's undermining the principle of succession, which is fundamental to being a power, or a great power, or a superpower. …

"But one thing has been constant: some people are making a killing off of these wild swings in the financial markets and bets with insider information in betting markets.

"Trump’s message on Iran has shifted a multitude of times. Sometimes Trump says we've won the war and the Strait of Hormuz is open. Sometimes he demands help from our NATO allies and announces we’re sending a blockade to the critical waterway."

Traders placed over $1bn in perfectly timed bets on the Iran war. What is going on?
Suspicious wagers on the US-Israel war in Iran are creating huge windfalls and raising concerns among lawmakers - #IranWar #Corruption #profiteering #grift #TrumpRegimehttps://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/apr/18/iran-war-bets-ethics-concerns

The Trump administration is again suspected of insider trading and market manipulation with the latest move in crude oil.
A $760 million bet that oil would go down was placed 20 minutes before Trump's announcement that the Strait of Hormuz was open. The 10% downward move was triggered by the announcement and fueled further by market makers hedging against the outsized trade. West Texas Crude was trading as low as $81 a barrel.
Meanwhile, the Strait remains within control of the IRGC and physical oil shortage has not been alleviated.
SURPRISE
SURPRISE
SURPRISENOT!
It is just amazing that no one is going after them. I thought Insider trading and profiteering was against the law in the US, but hey, it is trumpian dumbfuckistan we are talking about here. law is something they don't care about.

Private firms providing services to NHS made £1.6bn profit in two years, research finds | NHS | The Guardian
https://www.theguardian.com/society/2026/apr/13/private-companies-nhs-services-profit-chpi-research"The £1.6bn in profits made in 2023-24 and 2024-25 would have been enough to pay for 9,178 doctors or 19,428 nurses during that time, according to the Centre for Health and the Public Interest."
Then people wonder why the NHS struggles for money. But this was predictable, and no doubt the plan all along.

Hey Monsanto, Fuck You 2
... Now they are part of Bayer, and control EU policy: they happen to own half the farmland of #Ukraine - the propagandists know this and are doing hard work to bury it as disinformation.
When I produce government documents then laugh, okay nazi?
The US goverment, now owned by real Nazis continues to double down on the same old propaganda, to continue the #War #Profiteering
My dad told me about "War Is a Racket" when I was a kid.

There was a time when we considered improving the #EnergyEfficiency of #backend services by switching from interpreted to compiled languages, out of concerns about #ClimateChange. Then came the #CryptoMining farms, AI #hyperscalers and #neoclouds - monstrosities that #pollute grotesquely and guzzle as much power as some nations. And people quit talking about climate change. Everyone seems to have given up in despair and accepted their fate!
