Is there any good GOP candidates in North Carolina that can primary that loathsome Burr?
How many others have done and do the same thing every day? Mindless. And we pay their salaries.
I totally loathe Burr as a RINO but would his phone have been taken were he a demoncrat?
“Burr was repaid for his troubles by the FBI with a raid on his home in a search for evidence related to allegations that he traded a huge amount of stocks in February based on insider information about the extent of the Wuhan Virus problem in the U.S. Burr was also forced to turn over his telephone in the process of the FBI raid. “
Nice to see that asshole FINALLY being called to account. But even so, anyone who did not see what was going to happen here by mid-Feb. was really out to lunch!
I think he decided not to run again. No one liked him saved for deepstate and that can only take you so far even for a RINO
Primary for a 2022 election?
Who will replace him on the intelligence committee?
Burr is nothing but Warner’s stupid B*TCH! He’l get what he deserves, but I also want Feinstein, Loeffler and Alexander to be investigated by the FIBBERS!
He;ll probably hand over the keys to WARNER who actually DID try to coordinate with Russians!! I believe there were e-mails.

Everyone knows Mark Warner is the Chair of that Committee.
Richard Burr also sold a house to a Lobbyist that lobbies his Committee without ever putting the house on the market. Of course, he got 100k more than the value of the house.
Mark Warner runs that Committee.
.
I have no issue with Burr getting the screws put to him, he deserves everything bad that comes his way.
I hope he is the first of many other Senators and Congressmen who get investigated and run out of office.
Dianne Feinstein sold a bunch of stock as well, it would be run to see that old bag put on the spot...
Evidently in Burr’s case, the FBI subpoenaed Apple and got access to his I-Cloud account and evidently found something which led them to this raid and seizure of his phone.
how about the 2 democrats who did the same thing? Did the FBI arrive at their homes and seize their phones too?
As deserving as Burr may be of punishment here, don’t mistake it as a good thing for Trump or GOP election prospects in 2020. It will become part of picture of “corruption and incompetence” that dems will try to push as a narrative of the coronavirus response.
He’s probably not going to face any legal problems over “insider trading,” since that involves trading individual securities based on inside knowledge about particular companies.
I thought (really!) that Congress was not subject to this. "Insider trading" is a corporate officer thing for the business community, right?
Is this just an excuse? Is Burr out for other reasons that they don't want to say?
Exactly. I bet his friends in the NY Times or Washington ComPost aren't going to rush to his defense.
Being a RINO is so stupid, because you alienate your base and you'll never win over the leftist jackasses anyway.
Bingo.
