    The FBI reportedly seized Republican Sen. Richard Burr's cell phone as part of an investigation into potential insider trading related to coronavirus.

    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 su ious.

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

    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.

    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 su ious but I’m sure Moscow Mitch will cover their asses.

    its childish that you think only Rs do this

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

    sure get them all

    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 su ious

    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.

    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 hole.

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

    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.

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