Congress is not exempt from insider trading.
Chris Collins pled guilty to doing so in 2018 and was pardoned by Trump in 2020.

Republicans usually don’t know this because the story is censored by their media.
They didn’t and your articles don’t actually back up what you said. You didn’t even read the articles, moron.They voted to ban the practice but quietly exempted themselves from the law later.
Obama and some members of congress made it possible for selective prosecution, because as I said....most of congress wasn't aware of the changes in the bill.They didn’t and your articles don’t actually back up what you said. You didn’t even read the articles, moron.
Chris Collins, a Republican Congressman, was charged with insider trading while in Congress. He pled guilty and resigned.
That’s a fact which conservative media censors but it’s still a fact.
New York Congressman Chris Collins indicted on insider trading charges
Collins along with his son and his son's fiancee's father were indicted on Wednesdaywww.cbsnews.com
So tell me how you can say they exempted themselves when I have a clear example of someone being charged?
Moron.

What's ironic is Obama signed it into law:
"A year ago, President Obama signed the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act into law at a celebratory ceremony attended by a bipartisan cast of lawmakers.
"I want to thank all the members of Congress who came together and worked to get this done," he said.
The law wouldn't just outlaw trading on nonpublic information by members of Congress, the executive branch and their staffs. It would greatly expand financial disclosures and make all of the data searchable so insider trading and conflicts of interest would be easier to detect.
It's All Politics
Insider-Trading Ban Passes Congress, But Some See Missed Opportunity
But on Monday, when the president signed a bill reversing big pieces of the law, the emailed announcement was one sentence long. There was no fanfare last week either, when the Senate and then the House passed the bill in largely empty chambers using a fast-track procedure known as unanimous consent.
In the House, Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., shepherded the bill through. It was Friday afternoon at 12:52. Many members had already left for the weekend or were on their way out. The whole process took only 30 seconds. There was no debate.
"There weren't too many members of Congress who were aware of this legislation," says Craig Holman, the government affairs lobbyist for Public Citizen. "And I suspect very, very few understood what a sweeping radical change it is to the STOCK Act.""
how about reading your own linked stuff.Obama and some members of congress made it possible for selective prosecution, because as I said....most of congress wasn't aware of the changes in the bill.
Learn to read, Moron.

ATF would like a few words with you sir~Fuck the Democrats.
If I have to become violent I ain't gonna stop and ask if anyone's a leftard.
Whoever threatens my family is going to be on the butt end of some very serious highly targeted violence. Anyone who starts a riot on my front lawn is risking their life. Don't come here. I can take out a mob just by pressing a button. Leave a big fucking crater with a bunch of bones in it. Don't try me, you'll be sorry.
I read it, moron.Read your own fucking articles, moron.
The rollback was in provisions relating to public disclosures. It doesn’t make it legal to use insider information.
From your own article:
“So… with very little fanfare, Congress quietly rolled back a big part of the law late last week. Specifically the part that required staffers to post disclosures about their financial transactions, so that the public could make sure there was no insider trading going on.”
They all lie.
You just have to be able to spot the truth and the lies by keeping informed.
Seriously.....they think we're all idiots.
They're just acting. They're not convincing anymore because some of us are wise their their bull shit.
Right now Newmax is reporting truthfully most of the time.....but that's probably going to go away as well.
Once they get their people into any organization they clamp down on the truth.
The reason they get away with all of this is because they're attacking decent civilized Americans.
If they weren't, we'd be harder to take advantage of.
I don't watch Fox that much. I'll watch "The Five" and "Gutfeld", but that's about it.So for now, Newsmax is the best place to get the truth until they get people into the organization?
Then we need to move on to news that has minimal viewers and hasn't been "clamped down on"?
This has all been a buildup to imposing strict and oppressive regulations over all of us.
Democrats are doing things that are intended to get us angry so we will become violent, and then they'll bring the hammer down.
Nowhere in the article did they say that it’s legal for Congress to use insider information.I read it, moron.
What it amounts to is a slap on the wrist.
As long as they disclose the trade all they do is pay a small fine.
Nobody in their right mind starts screaming out in the open that they're going to start shooting people.Which side are you on..? Seriously… The “go quietly into the cold, dark night, or… the pissed off Patriot, that says “fuck off die slow”… pacifism is not the winning strategy. Preserve your morality, for those whom might respect it… For the rest..?Toll them under; lest your failed body fuel the Marxist take-over…
