Not in their own names, at least.
- baobabKoodaa 7mo agoWere members of Senate and Congress even informed of the Maduro raid before it was executed?
- smcin 7mo agoThe Congressional Gang of Eight said they were not informed (even though they're supposed to be).
- rbanffy 7mo agoMaybe that’s their resentment - that they could have profited from it and didn’t.
- smcin 7mo agoDon't become so cynical. Congress has an obligation to be consulted on wars and withhold consent/budget. (Even if they were merrily trading on events). Perhaps one of the silver linings we eventually get from current happenings is meaningful anti-insider trading legislation, with criminal penalties, timely reporting, nonpartisan enforcement. In principle that legislation could happen as soon as 2/2027. Or perhaps not.
