Government ethics watchdogs are sounding the alarm after the Pentagon granted a contract to the U.S. technology company Dell worth $9.7 billion. The contract was secured despite financial disclosures revealing President Trump purchased shares of Dell worth up to $5 million ahead of the deal.

In response, Public Citizen’s Robert Weissman said, “It is impossible to know where personal profit making ends and policymaking starts with this president.”
