Good. All the swamp needs to go.
Waiting on Feinstein and Pelosi to resign. Those two got family dynasty ruling CA already.

Shit, what is intel good for if you can't use it for a little insider trading? Isn't this one of the standard wealth growing strategies of political office?

From the Intel committee, if the Republicans get someone dangerous like Matt Gaetz or Mark Meadows to replace him, then he will probably resign. Just out of spite.
But who am I kidding, there isn't any Medows, Jordans, or Gaetz in the Senate. The swamp is still safe, with McConnell, Graham and Grassley.

"This is a distraction to the hard work of the committee and the members, and I think the security of the country is too important to have a distraction." Unless of course he can profit from betraying that.

I’m not sure what he did was insider trading.
He’s not the only guy who sold stocks when he did; a lot of others did and that’s why it went down quickly.

He did it early before anyone else knew that they were going to shut down the economy.
And damn right all of Congress does it, light em up!

DiFi did it too but didn't do anything wrong. She had her husband do it. She even has paperwork saying it wasn't her.

I am not sure she will get away with that dodge. Doesn’t pass the sniff test.

Last night his cellphone was seized in an investigation about using his privileged info as Intel Committee Member to profit on COVID trading. He announced his resignation a few hours ago.
