evidence: The CEO of Trump Media urged leading House committee chairmen to investigate eight financial firms over concerns of potentially illicit short selling of DJT, whose majority shareholder is former President Donald Trump. [...] "To assist in determining whether intra-day short sales of DJT are being approved in violation of [Securities and Exchange Commission] rules, we would encourage you to seek documents and testimony from firms (including several Depository Trust Company members) that facilitate short sales," Nunes wrote in the letter, which was disclosed Thursday by Trump Media in an SEC filing. [...] A spokeswoman for Trump Media in response to that at the time said, "Citadel Securities, a corporate behemoth that has been fined and censured for an incredibly wide range of offenses including issues related to naked short selling, and is world famous for screwing over everyday retail investors at the behest of other corporations, is the last company on earth that should lecture anyone on 'integrity.' "
