Alex Jones discloses information about a left-wing investment firm, one of several entities shorting President Donald Trump’s DJT stock in the days before Saturday’s attempted assassination of the GOP candidate.
Jones wrote along with his X video:
“Leftist Investment Company, Austin Private Wealth, Admits To Filing A Report With The SEC On Their Shorting Of 12 Million Donald Trump Company Stocks 12 Days Before The Assassination Attempt. Within hours of the attack on Saturday, I called for the Trump organization to investigate any suspicious Puts placed against the Trump empire in the weeks and days leading up to the attempted coup. It’s now 100% clear, that the Secret Service deliberately stood down. The Globalists know their time is coming to an end and they will try to kill Trump again.”
The Austin, Texas-based "wealth fund," Austin Private Wealth, is primarily utilized to generate funds for ESG-related leftist organizations and foundations. According to SEC filings, the company reportedly shorted DJT stock by 12 million shares 12 days prior to the Trump rally shooting.
Austin Private Wealth contributes to the ACLU, ADL, and several other organizations.
X user Champagne Joshi uncovered the company’s SEC filings and was subsequently "fact-checked" by Community Notes regarding the exact date of the trade.
He responded, "I see a community note has been added. The REPORTING DATE was 6/30, and the 13F was FILED on 7/12, as if it makes a difference. Followed by an amendment on 7/16. Nowhere in that post did I say that the trade was made on 7/12; I was referring to the 13F filing date and even linked to it. That note should be removed, rate it accordingly."
In a statement released this week, the company asserted that the SEC filing indicating they shorted a substantial number of DJT shares "was incorrect."
"The correct amount was 12 contracts, or 1,200 shares – not 12 million shares, as was filed in error," the press release stated.
It appears the company is attempting to walk back the filing after being exposed online for what looked like insider trading gone wrong since the assassination attempt failed.
Other companies also seemed to participate in shorting Trump’s stock, as there was an 801% increase in trading activity just one day before the Trump shooting.
Jones noted that similar stock trading anomalies were reported to have occurred just days before the September 11, 2001, attacks, with American and United Airlines stocks seeing a surge in put options ahead of the tragedy.
The unusual financial activity leading up to the attempted assassination of Trump must be investigated.
