Catherine Rampell: "The Pentagon today said the #IranWar is just getting started."
Their commander in chief, less than an hour later, said: "the war is very complete." Trump said that to Weijia Jiang of #CBSnews, to move the stock market. After CBS slanted the news in a pro-Trump way, Trump gave them an exclusive news story. Trump may have been lying.

Donald Trump probably knows from past experience that his statements about government policy (such as the future of the #IranWar) are likely to cause changes in stock market valuation that would let, Trump, his family, and his cronies get richer by making stock market trades with this insider knowledge. copy: @renewedresistance #ethics
