When will have term limits to root out these people who have political office as a sinecure for life—-on the state and then federal levels. My plan: whether on local, state or federal levels, you get one term—and one term only; House 2 yrs.; Senate 3 yrs. Same for federal appointments. ALL political offices, including the Supreme Court: no one who's 68 can run for office. Right now DC is a geriatric holding pen—-with so many politicians and justices in their 70s and 80s. It's time for new blood—-not the same people being re-elected over and over because they've got money or got rich in office. I rather doubt that anyone lacks the courage and commitment to pass term limits, but old age takes a toll on all of us. It's time for new people, new voices, and new opportunities. The deadbeats now in office need to be retired to live on their fat-cat pensions.
Well what do you know foreign countries pushing the who cares YouTube videos once again meddling in our American elections just like before. Let me guess Russia? China? Look Donut Trump beat the S&P by receiving 8 million dollars from China during the presidency and that is just the tip of the Vanella Iceberg…
These people don’t need to be in White House. All they after is to put money in their pockets. 😮

So our unelelected government can do anything to enrich themselves, inside trading, money laundering kickbacks, passing UNCONSTITUTIONAL LAWS, all against the American people with ZERO consequences, WOW 😮
POLITICIANS ARE USING INSIDER TRADING TO MAKE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
Martha Stewart….
Didn't she get in trouble..?
I am not going to pay for illegal immigrants. i will move my money so they can't use it. Biden has no control with spending taxpayers money everyday he is in the Whitehouse .
The stock market is a complex system that is influenced by a variety of factors, including economic indicators, political events, and global trends. The relationship between policies and the stock market can be complex and multifaceted, and it can take time for the full effects of policies to be reflected in market trends. Therefore, it is possible that policies implemented in the past may have a "lagged effect" on the stock market, as their full impact may not be felt until later on.
It is against the law it's written in the Constitution that no law should be passed on the American people that Congress does not follow itself we can't Insider trade they can Insider trade they need to start following the Constitution are we as the people will stop paying taxes because it's all right under the Constitution I'm getting away making billions of f**** dollars and I'm doing a f**** thing and then taking billions of dollars from the American people needs to stop immediately it is in the Constitution that no more should be passed on to the public if not followed by the people making the laws read the f**** Constitution
What a fricking bunch of crap. The top 10 % of the rich elite own 88.9% of the stocks 27 trillion dollars worth. The bottom 50% hard working Americans own .06% of the stocks 19 billion
To the government it's all about the MONEY.
I read something the other day about these congressional members, how most senators are generational wealth, but house or Reps are typically not that well off. The cruxt was that the later usually becomes rather wealthy after a couple of years on the job.!! now I see why. personally, I don't see how a house of rep congress person affords a house in their state/district and an apartment/ space in DC for when congress is in session.? are we paying for high end hotels for these clowns? take away their money and most won't stay in the job.
We influence
Unless your martha stuart buy weed
My greatest concern is how to recover from all these economic and global troubles and stay afloat especially with the political power tussle going on in US. The government has really called things more difficult for its citizens, and we can't sit back and bear all the consequences of the bad governance. We need to take our financial life serious….. I recommend stock market investment and digital currencies
Most corrupt government in history
isn't that insider trading? or I mean that's some form of fraud why is there no law already not allowing them to play with the market with the power they hold..
This need to stop we also need term limits.
Tax the hell out of Pelosi
Now… Post the name of EACH, AND EVERY SINGLE REPUBLICAN. You know that they're more prevalent on this little listing.
Now we know how the Democrats are staying in power
FOLKS WAKE UP!!!! ITS THE HAVES AND HAVE NOTS!
We are being played
So they regulate everyone else but they can do whatever they want. It’s baffling how this is allowed!
Congress should have to put there money in trust and not allow to buy and selling stock and there family
DRAGQUEEN LIVES MATTER, DRAGQUEENS FOR PRESIDENT, DRAGQUEENS FOR NATIONAL POLICE , CHILDREN ARE AFRAID OF CLOWNS, DRAGQUEENS JUST WANT TO BE YOUR FRIEND 0:06
Currption
Any person elected to Congress should not be allowed to own or trade stocks and use insider trading tools that are available to them in office! THIS IS CRIMINAL BECAUSE THEY ARE ELECTED TO FIX THE PROBLEMS OF OUR COUNTRY NOT GET RICHER! ON AMERICAN PEOPLES DIME!
What's good for Congress to do as an inside trader shall be equally good for all americans,otherwise it shall be a crime for Congress to inside trade on insider congressional information too,this is a violation of the constitution to use your office for family or personal financial gain,Pelosi is a criminal under those standards,that she has
given herself immunity to break the law,
keep propagandizing the culture wars fox, we know who you are.
Tell us something we dont already know………
Unreal
Congress working to help with stock trades not the people. Very disappointed.
Democrats are funneling money that they say is going to ukraine into the stock market. Or they're having ukraine do it through shell companies.JOE BIDEN knows how it works.
Insider trading smh
I agree, the government is way to big. Put those people back in the private sector.
To bad the government isn't using our SS and making more for our retirement. Why are U.S. taxpayers providing public pensions to millionaire members of Congress on top of a 401(k)-style plan? If a politician becomes a millionaire while in office, the taxpayers shouldn't be putting anything into their pension plan. It could come back to us and our SS.
Fallen former New York congressman Chris Collins was sentenced Friday to 26 months for an illegal stock tip that he gave his son from the White House lawn about a biopharmaceutical company’s failed drug trial.
Collins, 69, pleaded guilty in October to conspiring to commit securities fraud, and to making false statements to the FBI about the frantic calls he made to his son Cameron in June 2017 during an event at the White House.
The fallen Buffalo-area lawmaker was the first member of Congress to endorse Donald Trump’s first bid for the presidency.
Drain the swamp
Corrupted to their rotten core. Both sides engage in insider trading. Discerning voters are cynical about DC because DC is a cesspool of filth, corruption, dishonesty and greed.
If the president has to not follow up on their business, congress should, at least not TRADE ON STOCKS THEIR DOIN VOTES ON.
Let the country go bankrupt at this point let everyone know what they voted for
Which government people are making buku off Covid stocks
Pelosi that’s a lot of eyebrow pencil, please explain
ALL THAT NEEDS TO BE SAID ABOUT LYING THEIVEING CROOKED POLITICIANS ON INSIDER TRADING IS -NANCY PELOSI.RING LEADER. THATS WHY THEY VOTED FOR THEMSELVES ON TERM LIMITS. THEY CANT DO INSIDE TRADING IF THERE NOT A MEMBER OF CONGRESS AND GET AWAY WITH IT.
Put them in jail, no trading privileges for public servants.
