Wait why can politicians trade stocks?

FOUR SCORE AND SEVEN DIP-BUYS AGO, I PAID “CAPITOL HILL” A LITTLE VISIT.

Featuring interviews with Georgia Senator Jon Ossoff; Representatives Abigail Spanberger (VA 7), Ro Khanna (CA 17), and Scott Perry (PA 10); Unusual Whales; Chris Josephs (Nancy Pelosi Tracker, Autopilot); and Chris Kardatzke of Quiver Quantitative.

If you're really tired or on drugs it will look and sound like we wrote and said that Ro Khanna represents California's 17th district, not 12th, which is correct

If athletes can’t sports bet, then politicians shouldn’t stock bet.

The fine being $200 and even then not even being enforced is so insane

I will never forget when Nancy Pelosi did an interview on CNN during the height of the pandemic in her home office and told Wolf Blitzer that giving the American people $1500 as a stimulus was too much money, as she sat in front of an original De Kooning painting that was worth millions of dollars. I know that because I’m currently sitting on $29, 000 worth of student loan debt for studying art history.

Fully expected Dan to just stand in front of a bin on a grotty side street, look directly into the camera, say NO, and roll credits, and that would have been completely acceptable.

This was the moment that Good Work became Great Work

[TheAnthraxBiology]

Nancy Pelosi straight up said "the free market should favour me"

[andrerenault]

This channel quickly went from “haha finance bros” to “our government is deeply corrupt and is happy to stay that way” and I’m here for it

[Lucas-eekx]

The short answer is No. The long answer is No.

Morgan Stanley analysts aren’t even allowed to trade individual stocks are they? My mate works at JP Morgan and he’s more restricted than US politicians

“Our lives, but more importantly, our financial market”💀💀💀

In Norway we recently had a scandal where the husbands of two politicans had traded stocks. Since they could potentially have gotten info from their spouse it was a big deal and one of them quit their job because of it. Politicans straight up trading themselves is insane 🤯

[EK]

I can't believe Dan graduated from having his apartment described as a place someone goes to off themselves to interviewing members of Congress. Good Work!

[CameronFussner]

Biggest lesson i learnt in 2023 in the stock market is that nobody knows what is going to happen next, so practice some humility and follow a strategy with a long term edge.

[samkaenner]

I think the obvious solution is to pay politicians more. Poor guys, need to run side hustles.

[silverXnoise]

The only problem, Nancy, is when _you_ and your colleagues participate in the stock market, it’s no longer a free market economy. It’s a manipulated oligarchy.

[JOKBO]

"Rival news TV channel 60 minutes" is a WILD statement lmfao

[augustoarguello]

Under the SEC regulation, private officials are brought to justice when they commit insider trading. So, why is not the very same law applied to public officials, when everything else but the title, stays the same?

[AnonAtry]

I work for a 'big 4' and I have SO many restrictions when it comes to trading even though I am nowhere near audits as I work in consulting... It's madness
