Legal or not enforced?
100% legal. they carved out exemptions specifically for themselves, and forced a 30 day delay on normal humans from knowing what they purchase/sell. in writing.
Legal in that there isn't a specific law against it. Several Reps and Senators at various times have proposed a ban on Congresspeople trading individual stocks (presumably they could still have index funds, mutual funds etc.) but shockingly enough those measures didn't pass.
legal corruption. the US probably has an official stamp for this shit.
We need to get the entrenched old guard democrats out of power. They are controlled opposition just as beholden to the billionaires who pull Trump’s strings. We need new blood.
The young democrats aren’t any better
How did the cunt know when to sell?
Oh he's just a very keen businessman! /s
the news about deepseek came out several weeks before the stock market noticed.
Is there a blue sky account that follows Paul Pelosi's stock trades in realtime or a short enough delay that gains could be made?
