Congressional Stock Trading Ban

[Tyy7777]

I think we can all agree on this.

A group of Senate Democrats led by Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-Ga.) and Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) have re-introduced a congressional stock trading ban.

This is loooong overdue. Interesting to see if it can get over the line now as there is genuine support behind. Democrat strategist Connor Farrell has launched a PAC to help combat the issue. Trump has shown his support as has Mike Johnson and several other republican members. Hakeem Jeffries has also voiced his support.

Ossoff co-sponsored a similar bill last year and was put on the senate calendar but stalled before congress ended. Hopefully bipartisanship can be reached here.

Am I supposed to guess how that is relevant?

Using inductive reasoning to clarify why there are still Trump supporters.


MAGA just touch the hot stove. They are not smart enough to realize it yet.

I figured but I weren't sure your position on the issue.

Trump supporters do agree with this I think. It's sponsored by Democrats so that means they can't give credit.

Hopefully the Wife, Girls, and Grandkids are all doing OK and healthy. Are the grandkids still into MX’ing? Are you still doing the wrenching for them? Wishing you safe travels when you do.

Well this was always going to end around this time.

The entire thing was a sham and heavily suspicious. The power granted to unelected official such as himself was wrong on so many levels. Shutting down complete departments to using the president for commercial purposes.

The ironic thing is he was supposedly brought in to cut waste and now Trump has gone wild with spending in the "Big, Beautiful Bill".

I’d agree. Its crazy isn't it!
