I mean gosh, just investigating the insider trading charge is lame, they'll need to look at everything.
Well, they have a way to go to match all of the Hillary investigations -- which she was exonerated of, of course. Will it be the same with Trump? I'm guessing you wouldn't take that bet.

Not a Trump fan. Actually been mostly voting democrat lately.

Just also not a fan of Partisan DAs and AG's conducting fishing expeditions.

So what is she going to do...slap her own hand ?

Congress is beyond reproach because there is no one to stop them.
They vote to give themselves power and money.

Does anyone think that will change ??

Now Nancy's husband bought $1.9 million worth of Microsoft call options right before it was publicly announced that Microsoft had won a huge government contract.

There is no way the Pelosis dumped $1.9 million bucks into risky call options for any reason other than they wanted to act on Nancy's private knowledge of the government contract going to Microsoft.

The Pelosis just got a whole heck of a lot richer gaining $10 million back.

Congress opposes changing this law.

If a low level government clerk did this they'd wind up in jail likely.

Laws are for us peons.

If you can't beat them, join them.

I got into $ABML at $0.023, on a tip from a friend. It's a lithium battery recycling company that's just getting started. Pelosi's husband's firm is bankrolling it. What do you think the odds are that it's going to fail?

This is my new investment strategy - following relatives of career politicians and getting into what they're involved in, whenever possible. I'm doing better with this than I ever did trying to understand fundamentals and whatnot. Much better. And I did ok picking stocks before. I'm not a financial advisor and you shouldn't listen to anything I write regarding money.

Also remember Rahm Emanuel: "Never let a crisis go to waste".

That's been my mantra since the housing bust and stock market crash that was totally the fault of our government regardless of party.

Not those in power. There are different rules for them.

Why do you think it's a fishing expedition? You don't think they've been investigating Trump for many years, long before he ran for president? The guy's a millionaire -- or billionaire if you believe him, who pays zero taxes. That's going to throw huge red flags. Plus the myriad of sketchy antics of the Trump organization that we've seen, and who knows what else that the various tax and law enforcement agencies know about. The problem is that Trump and his "organization" had enough legal muscle to lock up any investigation almost infinitely, until now. It's not a witch hunt, it's the chickens coming home to roost.

I think if you look at most member of Congress you will find illegal activity going on through stocks or other type of inside information. This is why total transparency needs to happen to show all records of cash flow from day one of office. If you did that we would have less millionaire members of Congress
