LOCK THEM UP!-Senators Burr, Loeffler, Johnson, & any other insider-trading Pols
The Issue
LOCK THEM UP!
Richard Burr, United States Senator from North Carolina, Kelly Loeffler, United States Senator from Georgia, and Ron Johnson, United States Senator from Wisconsin, and Diane Feinstein, United States Senator from California,...all recently dumped MILLIONS of dollars in stock, after receiving intelligence briefings. AND.... WHILE they were reassuring the public.
Not only is this the lowest form of disgusting, it is illegal to insider trade on classified information. During a pandemic, they only thought about their own investments.
"The Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act (Pub.L. 112–105, S. 2038, 126 Stat. 291, enacted April 4, 2012) is an Act of Congress designed to combat insider trading. It was signed into law by President Barack Obama on April 4, 2012. The bill prohibits the use of non-public information for private profit, including insider trading by members of Congress and other government employees". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STOCK_Act
An example MUST be made!
They must be brought up on charges by the Department of Justice, Congress, or BOTH.
Otherwise the statement is made that laws are not for the rich and powerful!
