It was one of the most significant attacks by law enforcement on insider trading in a decade

Boy, they must have been looking REALLY hard.

Maybe it should be a valid defense that worse violations are clearly taking place right in front of everyone. It could prevent some abuse of the judicial system. Maybe these people are guilty, but they should not be able to just overlook Nancy.

I know. When I saw the headline and saw that it came from D-AP, I knew the guy must've been a Republican. D-AP would've ignored a similar story about a Democrat.

I figured this had to be a Republican. No Democrat would ever be charged.

Zero tolerance? That’s not going to leave many elected democrats in office.

His problem was that he is a former Congressman. Had he remained a Congressman, even an R, he would not have had a problem with insider trading as it is allowed for those elites.
