Ocasio-Cortez: Colleagues ‘should probably disclose’ recent stock purchases now - Lemmy.ca

Democrats again playing backfooted.

The time to chastise congressional insider trading was last year at the latest. Now they’re doing the same, but on a much bigger scale and without fear of reprisal because the institutions meant to penalize insider trading have all been gutted. They are literally openly bragging about the billions they made from this move.

This is how fascism wins. Antifascists perpetually fighting last month’s battle while everyone else deals with this week’s crisis. Mark my words: Republicans will disclose their trades in a month or so and literally nothing will happen.

A lot of complaining, and you offer no alternative. You’re even worse than the people you’re complaining about
Got any yourself?
I’m throwing my full-throated political support behind AOC and similar progressives and am not trying to undercut any of them

Passing electoral reform on a state by state basis will give 3rd parties access to the electoral process and grow our options. Not only from more parties to choose from, but also injecting competition into our elections forcing the legacy political parties to actually compete for our vote.
