Stop asking for term limits. It makes the revolving door problem worse because the good ones never get good at the job. The problem is very very simple: 85% of voters do not donate to politicians. They only listen to the 15% because they pay the bills.

Spouse trading is huge! A friend that works at state level told me. Spouses file taxes separately and not required to divulge when their politician spouse surrenders theirs.
People should be running for office, just saying this nonstop. "Your politicians are telling their spouses and family members which stocks to buy and sell".
"trading stocks shouldn't be banned because doing so would cut off a financial source that some politicians use to make ends meet." The annual salary of a US congressman is $174,000 and they get a very generous pension. If they can't make ends meet with that, they should immediately be removed from office because they clearly are wildly out of touch with the reality all the people they supposedly represent have to live in.
Nancy and her funny freak husband plus probably countless friends and family made 100's of MILLIONS from insider trade stocks. It's not hard to find the details on those facts with a little web hunt and review the dark web finance report dumps. I believe all politicians should be banned from the stock market while elected and every politician along with close friends and family monitored 24x7x365.

It's essential to consider the long-term perspective and personal financial security for individuals, including those in public service. Investing, particularly through a managed firm, is a legitimate approach to financial planning. Balancing personal interests with public duties is critical, and transparency is key in avoiding conflicts of interest.

Politicians should not be able to trade stock. It's not just knowledge before thing happen. It's also possible for them to manipulate events. Family members also.

If the SEC would clearly define Insider trading to include pending legislation or significant spending approvals / cuts...this would then make their actions into a chargeable offense
If all the banks and private individuals use this apps and mirrors their trades, what will happen to the market, will it crash, will we all get rich or will it nullify everything?
Interestingly, ABC has finally caught up with the story, albeit a bit belatedly, but kudos for their effort. It appears Nancy and her husband have been engaging in what could only be described as 'pillow talk.' One can't help but marvel at the sheer brilliance of her husband's stock market plays. It's quite the spectacle - his knack for 'impeccable' timing in option calls is nothing short of genius, or so it seems. It's almost as if he's got a crystal ball, or perhaps, just really good bedtime stories.
One of the worst aspects of American society is how almost everyone does nothing more than complain; typically just whining on social media comments to others within their bubble. It is refreshing to see these internet groups ACTUALLY doing something.
I think that it's pretty hard to prove especially in the case of Nancy Pelosi. Her husband runs a venture capital investment and consulting firm so he likely trades and make bets all the time. But also if they are really that consistent all of the time (which is highly unlikely), then just copy their portfolios and trades and you will be too. Right?
You can't honestly think she's not feeding him information? Its the perfect front to make bets with insider information. She has plausible deniability and the information, he has the business to cover it all up. Copying their trades often don't yield the same results b/c they have up to 45 days before they have to disclose the trades. That's way too much time for you to profit at the same rate on the inside information lawmakers enjoy.
In a story about Congress trading stocks you brought up Trump, is that how the news works now, “Ok we got a story about goat herders in Nepal but how can we link Trump into it and make it seem like he hates goat herders and is corrupt?”
The fact that those two men are Coloradans first, despite their many differences, warms my heart. We need more of that. I ain't even ever stopped the car going through Colorado and I like it more than ever, now.
Sadly, Colorado has been californicated. Nevertheless, if your blasting through it's still a beautiful place to to get off the beaten path, rest for a few days, and take in nature's greatness. Pretty much anywhere outside of Denver.
If states change their voting laws right before an election and there is question as to whether these changes were made legally . . . what's a man to do? As you will recall the saying was "there were not enough votes to change the election" so state courts did not take up these cases. They were talking about not enough votes in their state. Cumulatively from all of these states there could have been enough votes. This was just one of the issues that was to be discussed by the Senators and Congressmen on January 6th. Unfortunately the protest itself and some extreme protestors prevented this from happening.
i find it curious the Marjorie Taylor Greene bought stock in Raytheon and Lockheed just days before the Russian invasion of Ukraine ..both companies supply military hardware to Ukraine as well ,shortly after she bought the stock, Lockheed got a 1 billion dollar government contract.
I work for the FDA and I am not allowed to hold any stocks regulated by the FDA, which is about 45% of the US economy. I have almost no knowledge or power but due to the possibility of inside knowledge we are all banned out right. How is possible they can?
They make 6000 dollars a month. I'm on SSI, I make that in a year. 180 grand a year is really good paycheck. More then most Americans make. What they do is wrong. Unless they share the info to all of us!
They won't pass a law stopping their insider trading but they sure as heck will pass a law against this app. That's got to be against some law already, and I'll bet they will make another more clear law against it. I'm pretty sure this is all wrong anyway. They become millionaires by their $174,000/yr salary. Can't anybody take $174,000 and make it millions?
FYI it's important to communicate that with the right guidance and financial strategies, achieving financial security is within reach for everyone, including lower-income groups. Belief in the possibility, coupled with informed financial decisions and dedication, can pave the way to financial stability and growth for all.
How many funds regularly beat the S&P 500 like the politicians do? Very few and if they do it's because the risk is higher where the politicians do it the least riskiest way, using inside information.
If you are a political public servant, all of your finances should be public. There should be a database that any citizen can go to and see where every dollar you spend goes while you are in office. Completely transparent.
You want people to go against their most basic nature and are surprised when they don't? Greed is our single most powerful motivator and that will never change.
I love that main stream news is learning investigative journalism from unheard of no-name researchers on the internet! Keep reminding us why we get almost all of our news from sources that don't pedal sensationalism. Term limits on EVERY PERSON IN GOVERNMENT
Ban the congress from stocks, and they'll have their kids, spouses, friends, etc trade with a lawyer created document handing the money to the congressman after the trade. It'd pull WAY too much money out of their pockets. Autopilot also has to use Robinhood, it doesn't work with all trading brokerages.

Sure af not passing anything with THIS congress...
Now, this is reputable reporting unlike the disgusting lies and false narratives against the former president
Didn't Margarine Traitor Peen just buy a Mansion?
Imagine that. From Trailer Trash to Millionaire, in one term.
"No swamp here, folks, move along."
Had to throw Trump in there eh?

The syndrom runs deep.

I love you, brother.
There are some decent people in congress even if I don't agree with them. Between UAP's and stock trading, it's super corrupt.
Congressional members being allowed to trade stocks is like letting professional athletes being allowed to make bets that they will lose a game they're in.
Investigate and charge all of them. It’s not right have corrupt people making laws for others. Abusers are not worth anybody’s trust let alone an entire country.
I will say this for the 15 time. EVERY POLITICIAN is crooked. EVERYONE of them.
This USED TO BE illegal. Back before they buried justice.
