Insider trading and Congress: How lawmakers get rich from the stock market

Congressional insider trading has long been a hot issue, and lawmakers continue to look for a way to put an end to the practice. In 2012, the STOCK Act was passed following allegations of insider trading before the 2008 financial crisis. However, experts say the law didn't go far enough. Watch...

Liz Cheney was paid by the 'never Trumpers" in both parties. They are all part of the D.C. bureaucracy.

I think we need to:

1. Spread lies about the Cheneys on national TV for months while conducting a special investigation into every aspect of her life.
2. Raid the Cheney's homes taking everything.
3. Subpoena everyone the Cheneys know and subject them to intense questioning.
4. Accuse Liz of being the most dangerous thing ever to the USA.

Don Trump gave her an immense money to criticize him - what you can read in his tax-declaration.

Which means most politicians are crooks and need to be prosecuted and imprisoned.

Of course this will never happen, because we live in a failed state.

The downside to a massive state. A smaller budget federal government may be a bit corrupted, but the resources are far more limited. We are failed because our political class has failed us. A lot of people live in our nation for the number of representatives and senators at a federal level. Too easy to be bought out. Give more power back to the states. A lot more power. Even with high taxes.

Yes but this isn’t likely to occur. The federal government isn’t going the dramatically shrink in size and power won’t return to the states.

One thing we do need to do is to stop insider trading and influence peddling by our elected politicians. That may prove extremely difficult as they write the laws. If they did make such activities illegal they would likely just quadruple their salaries.

Perhaps term limits might help.

It's a mystery to be sure, but the wheel of fortune!

Why, Billary were *broke* when they left the White House with all that stolen furniture, but look at them now!
