The Justice Department is dropping its investigations into controversial stock trades made by Sens. Kelly Loeffler, Dianne Feinstein and Jim Inhofe in the early stages of the coronavirus pandemic, their offices confirmed Tuesday.

The decision comes after the FBI served Sen. Richard Burr (R-N.C.) a search warrant and seized his cellphone earlier this month, as part of its broader investigation into his financial transactions.

The Justice Department’s decision to drop its probe into Loeffler is welcome news for the senator, who faces a serious challenge from Rep. Doug Collins (R-Ga.) in a November special election. ______________

Oh, now that's funny.

I don't even think Collins is running. His campaign has been non existent.

Sadly, under Trump's DOJ.

Den of vipers and thieves. All that is left is to hope bad things happen to the ones who do bad things.

Wrong. Collins is going to destroy Loefler. McConnell is going to have to eat a big ole sh$t sandwich on this one.

Now that’s hilarious. 98% of Georgians don’t even know that Collins is running.

No commercials, no campaign literature, NOTHING.

I think Collins is full of sh!t. He’s not seriously running.

Must be nice to be in the ‘It’s a BIG club, and we’re in it’ pass :-(

I see Collins on TV, all of the time.

I hope he gives Stock Trade Loeffler a run for her (stock sale) $$.

One of the reasons we fought The Revolution was that there were two systems of justice. One for the “little people” and no rule of law for the ruling elite. We have come full circle.

“Equal Justice For All” needs to be reinstated as part of the American dream or honestly done away with.

Sure, Jan.

Loeffler and Ossoff are all over the TV .... and Collins is nowhere to be seen.

All three had their assets in a blind trust and as far as I’ve heard there is no evidence they colluded with the trustee. Burr made his trades personally.

Hey, they never intended to make money with insider information. They just they needed to clean up a few investments. You know, like with a cloth or something? And everyone knows senators use Trac Phones.

Prove me wrong.

Link to a campaign commercial(maybe I missed it). Link to campaign literature.

The Collins “campaign” has done ZILCH.

He’s not running. Not seriously anyway.

Nope...only DiFi’s trades were in a blind trust.

The other two use third party ‘managers’, which, should NOT be an excuse.

Disappointed in the DOJ, on this one.

Also....Loeffler’s hubby heads up the NYSE...she should be the last person trading stock, as a sitting Senator.
