It's a real dilemma. Save millions ( and make more) or sound the alarm and get the nation ready and save American lives.

Real Sophie's choice I guess.

Also, I found out tonight my sister had been in SF and Portland and got back on Monday. She had been feeling bad for a few days and lives with 2 others. She had a test and is awaiting results. She was a heavy smoker for years and still smokes occasionally. :frown:

I would be surprised they even get a censure because our country is definitely not an oligarchy

they probably didn't do anything illegal.  but loeffler will now likely lose her upcoming special election.

This was my first impulse, but the STOCK Act seems to be pretty clear. I still share some of the skepticism, though.

i definitely haven't delved into the details of the restrictions of insider trading or on what they knew at the time of their trades.  but, just based off of three of them taking the same action, i'm guessing they were within the letter of the law.

like, if the briefing being discussed consisted of publicly available info, i'm pretty confident it doesn't matter if the senators were publicly saying - "hey, country, don't panic about this unimportant publicly available info" and then panic selling everything they had in the market.

Could you provide some clarity why this is all of a sudden an issue?  I know she sold some stock at a likely unethical, perhaps illegal, time, but how does her husband being Chair of the NYSE matter here?

Even if it were illegal I'm sure these fuckers would just assume they'd get away with it.
