It is astounding how eloquent and professional congress members are when they are talking about their money

Josh Hawley is the man! Thank you for having a spine!

If it's already illegal for the crooks in DC, then why aren't half of you in prison?

[realcolbyadams]

There's no reason law makers should be getting insider trading. Martha Stewart went to prison a politician isn't above the law.

Serving in Congress should be a SACRIFICE by successful individuals. Not an opportunity.

[SamMcCoy-po]

NO way these crooks will EVER pass a law that would stop them from insider trading

[GbUSA]

Romney is the leader of the Rich man's club

[robertmyers]

Protect Josh Hawley at all cost. Maybe he will run for POTUS in 2028. I would vote for him.
