And don’t forget the 110 violations of the espionage act where only gross negligence is required for a conviction. Apparently 110 time wasn’t grossly negligent enough for James Comey so I assume he would be perfectly OK with people driving drunk 110 times around his neighborhood
If you play the game well, you might sacrifice a rook to take the King
The king should be worried
And you all automatically assume the charges are true? What timing!! How is it that Democrats never get indicted right before a crucial election?? Oh wait, I should change that to ‘Democrats never get indicted at all’. Especially in a heavily Dem state. Are the NY Primaries over or can we still field another R Candidate in this guy’s District?
Some Pubbies, including corrupt ones, in Upstate NY. This over in Buffalo and this guy won more than two-thirds of the vote in the last election. So the GOP ought to be able to squeak it out.
Wasn’t that based on info they learned from their position?
This guy I think got his from being directly on the board.
Someone can correct me if i am wrong...but think they are exempt from all laws..?
Unless they get on “the list” then they can be executed for jay walking.
“U.S. says New York congressman Collins indicted for insider trading”
But then Jeff let Menendez walk.
LOL, if that had been a Democrat, we would have reached the end of the article and had to do Internet searches to find the State and party affiliation.
They had it in the first six words!
We can consult with Dinesh D’Souza...he says political prosecutions, according to the media and the Obama administration, NEVER happen in New York.
Well, the U.S. legislators are permitted to do insider trading and benefit from it. Why can’t state politicians do it, too?
Obama permanently corrupted the entire government.
Although I’m fine with prosecuting him, IAW law, I still don’t understand why having “inside information” is such a bad thing.
Happens in horse-racing, too, and they act like it’s so bad. But frankly, they still lose.
Chris Collins was one of the first GOP Congressmen to endorse Donald Trump. That's why.
All he has to say is that he didn’t do it on purpose. Case closed.
rwood
Collins' district runs between suburban Buffalo and suburban Rochester. He is an outspoken Trump supporter and, as a result, "The Buffalo News" despises him and looks for any excuse to bash him on the front page.
always gets punished.
Collins was not one of the first Congressmen who came out in support for candidate Donald Trump, he was THE first one. Paul Manafort. Mike Flynn. Michael Cohen. Donald Trump Jr. You see a pattern here? If one were a tinfoil hat kind of a guy, one might say that being connected to Donald Trump is hazardous to your career, reputation and bank account.
All this while people like Hillary, Bill, Pelosi, Feinstein, Podesta, Comey,....well, nothing.
Just putting it out there.
Well the hell is the Trump DOJ investigating Republican Congressman for BS like “insider trading” (should that even be a crime?) in an election year!!!!?????
Collins was the first House R to endorse Trump.
This smells like horesfeces.
More unconstitutional laws from the basically unconstitutional SEC.
NUKE THE UNCONSTITUTIONAL 80% PORTION OF THE $4 TRILLION FEDERAL GOVERNMENT!!!
MAGA BY RESTORING OUR FREE CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC!!!
