During a confrontational hearing, Rep. Madeleine Dean scrutinized Attorney General Pam Bondi's timing of a stock sale on April 2, shortly before President Trump's tariff announcement that negatively impacted markets. Dean pointed out the potential financial advantage Bondi might have gained by avoiding a significant loss as the stock price dropped. Bondi defended herself stating she lost money on the sale, asserting compliance with her ethics. Despite her claims, Dean highlighted that Bondi could have made a profit had she held the stocks longer, revealing the controversial nature of the transaction.
Isn't it true that on April the 2nd the same day that [President Donald] Trump announced his chaotic tariff regime that plummeted the stock market you sold more than $1 million worth of your shares in Trump Media stock?
I complied with my ethics. And yeah, I would take a class in financial literacy if you think I profited from that because I lost a tremendous amount of money, congresswoman.
