Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-CA) delivered sharp criticism of President Donald Trump, accusing him of profiting off the war in Iran by investing in oil companies.
Trump Held Millions in Oil Stocks
In a post on X on Tuesday, Warren said Trump’s oil-and-gas holdings had gained as much as $15.5 million in market value.
“Donald Trump held millions in oil and gas company stocks at the end of 2025,” Warren said, adding that “those stocks are worth as much as $15.5 million more” currently.
“What happened? He started a war with Iran this year — and sent oil and gas stocks soaring,” Warren said, before sharing a link to a Senate Joint Economic Committee – Democrats article that said that Trump held “as much as $45.6 million in oil and gas stocks” at the end of 2025 in his portfolio, which was “now worth up to $61.1 million.”
