best part of the Keating fiasco is he sits on the DOJ Committee, the same committee that greenlighted the DOJ to begin investigating Boeing on Feb 29. He sold both his corporate notes and shares of stock at prices between $200-208 on Feb 28 and their shares are currently trading at $180. That's some insider trading for ya....
not to be outdone a congressman and two senators purchased a combined $3.5M (!) in bonds for economic development projects in the states of OK FL VA. These guys all sit on committees that decide which projects get funded by the federal govt. One of these Senators, Markwayne Mullin, increased his net worth by $50M from 2018-2022. That's a hell of a run for one term in office
86% of Americans believe their reps SHOULD NOT be allowed to engage in the buying and selling of stocks and bonds while in office. Brings to mind the tyrant dictator, Abraham Lincoln's famous phrase " "government of the people, by the people, and for the people". None of those words are true today and likely haven't been true since 1913
