Netflix, Warner Bros bonds among $100 million purchased by Trump
President Trump purchased up to $1 million in Netflix and Warner Bros. Discovery bonds shortly after their $83 billion merger announcement, part of a $100 million-plus bond portfolio.
- The Jan. 14 disclosure shows President Donald Trump purchased corporate bonds from Netflix and Warner Bros. Discovery in mid-December, according to the Office of Government Ethics.
- After Netflix announced the deal on Dec. 5, Paramount Skydance, led by David Ellison, launched a hostile $108.4 billion tender offer amid shareholder and regulatory scrutiny.
- Purchase records show Trump acquired two tranches on Dec. 12 and Dec. 16, each valued between $250,001 and $500,000 for Netflix bonds and Discovery bonds .
- The disclosures highlight the purchases create an awkward financial overlap as the administration may weigh in on the merger's regulatory review, though White House officials said independent financial managers made the trades.
- Broader filings show that Trump's late-November and December debt purchases, including bonds from Netflix and Discovery Communications, are worth between $53 million and $100 million, with a 12 to 18 month closing window.
