“Several members of Congress have introduced legislation to ban congressional stock trading.”

There’s nothing to see here.
She has the lobes for business!
Damn if she’s not better at market timing then Warren Buffett.... 🧐🧐🧐🧐
The sad part of this is the ordinary citizen would be thrown in jail for doing this but not our kleptocratic rulers.
Don’t tell me that congress members aren’t making money off insider information. It’s obvious they have been doing so for years. Pelosi and her husband’s amazing stock purchases and sales (all at the exactly right time) is Exhibit A of the evidence proving such!
This is obviously insider trading. And sure looks like a violation of the STOCK act. Rep. Frankel must be investigated immediately!
Oh, wait. Rep. Frankel is a Democrat. The mainstream media will ignore this. But the House leadership is Republican. So Rep. Frankel might be denied dessert in the House dining room for a day or two. That’ll teach her.

Corrupt, unethical BTH.
I don’t see why anyone and especially here on Free Republic is getting their panties in a wad over a little inside trading by members of the government.
I think we all know that, sans bribery, insider trading is one of only a few ways elected members of congress can grow wealthy, while in office.
What would happen if I did that?
Asking for a friend (Martha Stewart—she warned me not to lie about it.)
Pure coincidence
Rep. Lois Frankel figures if Nancy Pelosi can make $140.000.000 with $200.000 salary so can he.
