Senator Kelly Loeffler dumped millions worth of stocks following a private briefing on the Coronavirus.
“Appreciate today’s briefing from the President’s top health officials on the novel coronavirus outbreak. These men and women are working around the clock to keep our country safe and healthy.” Loeffler tweeted on January 24, 2020 — Loeffler reported her first stock sale (jointly with her husband) this very same day.

Her husband is the head of the NYSE....
“Lot of focus on the Republicans. But about the Dems? Feinstein sold $1-5m worth of stock in the same period”

But hey, they're still rich, right?
These stories are idiotic there is nothing wrong with their public statements or stock trades this is all a hit job. You didn’t need to be a senator to see this problem coming.
It may be immoral as hell, but unless they vacated the law which permitted them to trade on knowledge gained by virtue of their positions, it’s not illegal.
However, elections CAN pass judgement on these people’s moral compasses
He would be the third.
Other threads list Inhofe and Burr as dumping stocks after that private briefing.
Proves she only wanted the Senate seat to improve own financial position.
What law is that?
There ae lots of them and they are going to be exposed too.
The Group of 535 need to go down with the ship.
Especially if they don't launch the lifeboats for their "passengers" in time.
They’re still rich with years of office in front of them.
They should be prosecuted dammit!
the The Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act was enacted in 2012 to terminate this disgraceful practice.
I (and presumably Senators Loeffler and Burr) got the memo very late!
Most of the multi-termers do it. It’s one of their perks.
Francesco Schettino would be proud.
They all are scum, and no better than Osama Bin Laden. OBL sold stock just before the 9-11 attacks, profiting enormously.
Burr is a deep state coup plotter / plank-holder. He should be impaled with a javelin while lying down, starting from his anus and running up into his thorax, then raised up to permit the javelin to exit his body somewhere around his collar bone.
Are there Democrats that did this too? Then... prove it!
Scumbag traitor Burr, had to sign a financial disclosure document, and that’s why we know about him. If the Democrats did this, then there are, by law, the same kind of financial disclosure forms, to inform us, of their behavior.
Senators, who all get inside info from time to time as part of their jobs, should be forbidden to deal in the market while they’re in office. That would be a law I would support.
You nailed it.
Yeah, the Group of 535 live to sail another day.

This APPOINTED Senator is up for election this year. This will (rightfully) be used against her in the November special jungle primary election as well as the runoff election if she advances in the primary. I sure hope she loses in the primary election and doesn’t advance to lose a runoff against a ‘RAT candidate.
