Only for Democrat congress critters.

Congressmen are indeed exempt from the insider trading laws. But their immediate family members are not exempt.

They will nail this guy because he told his son to bail on the stock at the same time that he was bailing on it. And because he is a Republican, and a Trump supporter.

Democrats would get (and have gotten)a pass for such things.

Realistically, "it is only a crime when the Republicans do it".

Time to flush the DOJ, FBI, and others.
