Iirc this guy was already being investigated as one of the worst offenders.

Fienstien too

Feinstein sold Allogene a pharmaceutical that went up considerably after the sale and is now near an all time hime. If anything she’s guilty of making bad investment decisions. Now the three repugs being investigated for stock transactions, those look much more suspicious.

so we should punish only good insider trades??

Feel free to go ahead and cite examples where regulators have gone after someone for insider trading on trades that lost money.

Damn right.

What proof do you have that was a trade based on inside information? A sale of stock in a pharmaceutical company with one target COVID treatment, now at an all time high, up over 20% just today alone? Had gone up continuously after Finstein’s sale. Riiiight. :lol

Maybe it just might have been a sale not based on inside information, a dumb sale at that. I know you love your conspiracies but think you shot a blank on this one.

They’re investigating Fienstein too. So what’s your point? Pretty obvious the Feinstein investigation isn’t going to go anywhere for obvious reasonS. The repugs? Their trades look a whole lot more suspicious but I’m sure Moscow Mitch will cover their asses.

its childish that you think only Rs do this :lol

many billionaires did dumps in late Jan and early Feb. probably after some secret meetings. both Rs and Ds

sure get them all :tu

but somehow concentrating on Rs is so cute

It's pretty simple actually. Just look at their transactions on stocks in general. It's easy to pick a trade that coincides with an event but if the trade rises above the statistical noise of their average trading, then it's noteworthy. Otherwise it's just a trade for all intents and purposes. You'd have to look at it by sector as well.

Senator sells stock every week but never sold stock X until the same day as the meeting, and the stock was sold after the meeting - suspect.

Senator sells stock every week including biopharma and sold the same the week of the meeting, maybe same day even after said meeting - not as suspicious

Senator hasn't sold stock in weeks, maybe months. Sells a ton of stocks just after meeting - highly suspect

It doesn't matter if the senator does it themselves or they have an agency - the timing is suspect and the senator has inside information they could easily pass along through a page or other means to contact their brokers.

Point is that you guys slam the republicans, but brush off any ill doing by the left. Most in here are acknowledging that both sides are crooks except those that are hard left. Insider trading? You can bet your sweet ass ALL of them do it. Some are just better than others at hiding, but most likely they were simply the chosen scape goat for this round. Keep those dividing lines around 47-53%.

All of those law makers are in Washington for their own benefits, left and right. Once you accept that, you will begin to look at this in a totally different light.

Pretty obvious Burr is getting heavy heat. Don’t worry though, no repug, no matter how corrupt, can get convicted, as long is Moscow is in charge of the senate

DMC accusing someone of being a team shill. Dam now I’ve seen everything. :rollin

There are republicans I respect, EXTREMELY few anymore, ones that had or have integrity, ones like McCain. Any republican with integrity either gets attacked viciously by trash or severely compromises their principles to stay out of his gunfire. Trash has taken the Republican party deep into the shit hole.

[boutons_deux]

ones like McCain.

... should have been the Keating 6 with McCain, but was Keating 5, thanks to McCain's connections

he was a worthless cunt who did nothing for his country as head of that committee

he also protected trump and his treasonous actions

good fucking riddance

The early Republican response to the pandemic was

1. Cut off some travel from China
2. Sell off their stock before the Dow crashed
3 <crickets>

I totally agree.
But they have to establish what she was privy to.
And then the timing.

And then go for her throat as well.

[spurraider21]

I don’t think only successful trades should be investigated. No issue with them looking into Feinstein

"The early Republican response to the pandemic was

1. Cut off some travel from China :lol was racist/xenophobic pandering. 1000s of Chinese still came direct to USA, some from Wuhan

2. Sell off their stock before the Dow crashed

3 <crickets> Trash was never cricketeer, he downplayed pandemic, 15 cases going to zero, magically disappear, April's killer heat

There are actually Trump supporters who are still arguing that this statement isn't wrong because it is still going to zero, it's going from 15 to 1.5 million to zero; eventually. :lol

Sure you are. It's only suitable to lampoon for personal priorities, like shaming pseudonyms online. Surely there's a crack rock waiting on you.

[Will Hunting]

Your question implies a false premise that insider trading has nothing to do with whether a trade makes or loses money.

To answer it though, no. We should continue the existing practice of going after insider trading cases where the individual actually benefits from it.

Justice Department centralizes control of sensitive insider-trading probes


The department’s Public Integrity Section,

which has a mixed record in complex corruption prosecutions,

is looking at whether senators broke the law with coronavirus-related stock trades.

why?

=================

Trash/Barr exonerating, immunizing Trash's friends and attacking his enemies as personal vendettas.

"Last May, Burr, who is the Senate Intelligence chairman, signed off on a subpoena of Donald Trump Jr. (https://www.cnn.com/2019/05/13/politics/donald-trump-jr-richard-burr/index.html)

in an effort to learn more about why the president’s elder son tried getting dirt on Hillary Clinton ahead of the last general election.

And Burr, in the process, forever tarnished his reputation in Trump World.

The rules are clear, though unspoken:

No one goes after Trump family members.
