There has been outrage across the political spectrum over a shocking report that Senate Intelligence chair Richard Burr (R-NC) dumped as much as $1.7 million in stock just before the market tanked, despite publicly maintaining that the government was on top of the coronavirus. Thursday night on Fox News, Tucker Carlson completely tore into the senator from the Tar Heel state.
In a scathing end-of-show commentary, Carlson called on the senator to either justify his actions, or step down and be indicted.
Maybe there is an honest explanation for what he did, Carlson said. If there is, he should share it with the rest of us immediately. Otherwise, he must resign from the senate and face prosecution for insider trading.

At a minimum he should be stripped of his committee assignments and serve the rest of his term as a leper.
Okay-— now the major Demonrats that are part of the Gang of Eight and also privy to biotechnology sector stocks and “intel” clearance.
Democrats-— let’s uncover them. This cannot be just repubs— assuredly the dems are in it much further. Like old “twenty months of Sundays” Schumer for example. They trade on their pre- knowledge.... they tip others with it, the original insider trading with no repercussions.
Meaning, well deal with him.
An honest explanation from a politician?
A lot of them, like Donald Trump, come to the House or especially the Senate having made their fortunes.
Also Will Rodger advice. The way to make money in the stock market is to buy a stock. Then, when it goes up, sell it. If it’s not going to go up, don’t buy it! Will Rogers ...
Outstanding-— yes..Tucker Mr. holier than thou should consider putting his bowties back on and assume the “academic a@@hole up” position.
Well stated... “Sucker” Carlson. BTW this “expose” of the stock manipulators is being done through the DEEP STATE media.
You will not hear a word about Sen. Warner, Sen. Schumer, and NanziPelousi. Certainly not about Schiff and his Pasternak Ukrainian “defense” contractor who has govt. grants to make military “blimps” (Goodyear not being good enought) and kicking money to Schiff from the largesse he arranged.
So— someone needs to KICK this Sucker Tucker in the A@@ and insist (maybe do some actual research) on these others coming clean.... INSIST. Raise hell.
For the moment, if it means Burr is kicked it could mean a way to get him to spill the beans on Warner’s criminal actions on the Dossier and coordination of the coup with Schiff and Pelosi.. Just for starters. This expose of 1.7 million is just a “push” from.... Barr? on Burr.
Some journo source likely came across Burr’s filed S-4 in the SEC database. Easy enough to do if you know where his holdings are.
Well, that link is interesting in hindsight.
Yes, you are speaking of Senator Warner who had his minority seat on Senate Intel Committee given to him from Diane Feinstein (who knew her Chi-Com spy on her staff, her handler in point of fact for the chinese, was being discovered, and she “stepped down” to just a seat on the Senate Intel (but still coaching the vile Senator Warner).
this Burr thing could very well be-— “OK, Burr spill it on Warner, and for that matter on Di-Fi. You want out in 2022, smooth-— then, spill” Hypothetical power conversation delivered by ...Barr or maybe Durham. Burr has the look of a bought dog, more like a lackey cur. He will roll over on Warner. Yes..... yummmmmm!
Trump is an obvious exception. And he will go back to business when he is finished serving our country - 8 years and done. He doesn’t need to enrich himself and I found that an attractive quality in 2016. The other attractive quality was he was never in government before. Too many people struggle with the results of that. To the point, Trump is results oriented. Government is process oriented. Since when did government ever solve a major problem on its own? It’s all about process and getting reelected. If you solve all of the problems the reasons to get reelected vanish. It’s an on-going, never ending process. There’s plenty of elected officials that have been in government all their lives, harping on the same old things, but they get rich along the way.
Dems ain’t talking-— but they could well be forced to do so on this, using the spill the beans from Burr onto his pal Warner. the “tag your it, now start naming” drug dealer methodology.
Believe me the dems.... all did the same— it’s a club and we ain’t in it. This entire media blitz is a plant by the obamaumao Deep State types, through their buds in the media.
Does not mean resignation. Johnson, we should all recall has the goods on the Bidens.... All of the Goods. As does Giuliani. This is the Deep State-— I’ll say again, trying to pick off seats for more deep state dems.
I'm surprised they haven't exempted themselves from taxes yet. Or death.
Folks had plenty of time here to understand.
Well Tucker, by my count the previous person who should have resigned from the Senate over his SCOTUS threats would be Schumer, how’s that going?
Exactly. Hes required to go down with the ship?!?
Good Lord, everyone could see it coming.
Oh ho! Touche!
odorko actually signed something useful?
Indicted for what? It’s NOT illegal!
