Trump Goes Off On Josh Hawley Over Insider Trading Bill

[JohnDB]

If Nancy committed insider trading fraud or her husband did, it is still a crime.

Members of Congress and their staff are not exempt from the insider trading prohibitions of federal securities laws.

Oh I completely agree...
But going after Nancy is beating a dead horse at this point.

How about the ones sticking around and voting?

But I get it.....Nancy was one of the ones primarily responsible for J6 and the kangaroo court after. It's payback.

Thou shalt never get away with it.

It's the 11th commandment.

we pay....we ALL ALWAYS pay.

People get away with stuff all the time. I didnt watch but other than public shaming there are lots of people who get away with shit.

I see where you are coming from, but crimes that occurred in the past should be prosecuted.

For example, Illan Omar’s corruption is in the past. She should be prosecuted. $30 million to $90,000 mistake.

NO ONE IN CONGRESS SHOULD BE ABLE TO USE INSIDE INFORMATION TO PROFIT FROM STOCK TRADES.

I have had jobs where I had inside knowledge of financial data in Public corporations and I had to sign an agreement to NOT BUY OR SELL ANY STOCK IN THAT COMPANY UNTIL THE DATA WAS PUBLIC. IT INCLUDED FAMILY.

And a lot of that "family" is just to intimidate you....they can't prove anything with family members buying or selling stock. (Siblings, parents, adult children, Aunts and Uncles)....nevermind the hype or threats.
Press release timings are what is watched. And if you have true inside information the press releases are extremely old news anyway. Meaning....you won't ever get busted unless you buy or sell at the time of press releases.

But yes, I agree that Congress should have their portfolios placed into a blind trust that should hold nothing but the S&P 500 or the Russell 2,000. Maybe a blend of both.

Thats it....no games, no ups, no whammies.
But they ARE the ones making the laws....writing out the budgets including their own salaries.

They are currently prosecuting a military servicemember for insider trading on polymarket for when the bombs would fall in Iran. And they are mad because he knew and they didn't. Pure and simple. He only made a couple hundred thousand on the deal. (He didn't have much to bet with to begin with)

WE pay for it in indirect ways ALWAYS .

Never not....

I can't help but agree. It was 100% contrived and purely designed to garner votes and, then, to demoralize Americans.

Probably cooked up by Mossad and the CIA
