done, thanks

Does the FBI do non serious investigations?

Only if Hillary or Lois Lerner are involved.

[Awgie]

But...Insider trading is OK if you are a Congress-Criter!

[liberalh8ter]

As far as Michelson goes, this is hearsay. The guy who told Michelson is another issue.

[itsahoot]

Silly golfer... only Congress is legally allowed to profit from insider trading!

[Night Hides Not]

We’ll see how “serious” it is when Phil’s golf shirts have no sponsor’s logos on them. The departure of the Dean Foods is certainly suspicious.

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

Maybe Phil thought he was immune from prosecution because he’s a lefty.

[minnesota_bound]

Hillary Clinton and obama commit treason among many other crimes and nothing happens. Phil goes golfing with a guy and bam the FBI is on to him.

Wall Street Journal also has the story, in fact they broke it

“I think to be involved in insider trading, as a subject, you must have released the info or received it from an insider. “

That makes sense and that is what I thought when I read this article, but you know how US law is so we can not be sure unless you are a legal expert in this area.
