Yup - I've put a few thousand into the Pelosi Tracker on the AutoPilot app. It's doing well.

AOC of all people seems to have the right view on this - she was calling out insider trading by members of Congress just recently. Members of Congress and their spouses should be forced to put all of their investment assets into blind trusts controlled by independent financial managers.

AOC is better than a typical Democrat even though she is a Leftist.

AOC voted against the ban on TikTok.

And how do you ensure that they are "independent"? Kickbacks work in many different ways, as do threats.
