I doubt anything will come of this, but it should. Republicans for sure don't want it investigated; and neither do Democrats, because most likely some of their own are involved. Congress has know about insider trading for a long time. No reason to think they'll do anything now; it's too profitable. Schiff had a chance to co-sponsor legislation several years ago that would've banned Congess from trading in the stock market and he declined.

You did not need inside information, you only needed to believe his public statements that those who complied would be rewarded while those who fought back would be punished.

What was coming? The destruction of the woke enterprise?
We all saw that coming!
Duh!

So the "great business man" said tariffs would be the magic bean that would make America great and rich again, but they turned out to be a flop. What a surprise. Probably Biden and the media's fault.

Son, there is food on the table and I’m not your mother but your father.
You can be yourself and identify as your birth-self now my son.
Biden is gone, the spring is coming, the birds are singing and the air is free from tyranny thanks to Donald Trump - said the father to his son who was kidnapped unjustly by the public school system during the Biden administration.

I thought you would be happy that they are pausing the tariffs for 90 days.

It's more than just the stock market though, it's the prices of everything raising astronomically due to Trump's tariffs.

Now that the stock is doing better you can afford to go to England.
It’s cheaper there.
What’s the conversion rate today?
1 pound is $1.30 dollars.

Not going to lie though, if I had like Elon musk money. I might think about leaving. Maybe move to a country that doesn't demonize science so much.
