Weren’t congressmen exempt from inside trading laws until the mid 90’s?
I’d bet that a lot of them in congress are engaged in insider trading. Not just this guy, and you don’t have to be on the board of directors. You just need information that isn’t shared with the public, and you know, there’s a lot of information not shared with the public in congress.
I think they still are under certain circumstances. Not sure.
Legal or not (as defined by a bunch of filthy criminals themselves), what red blooded man or woman would not act to save his loved ones from financial disaster?
