CT: Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) is facing an ethics complaint related to stock trading filed by a nonpartisan watchdog group.
The organization, the Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust (FACT), urged the Senate Select Committee on Ethics to investigate the Connecticut lawmaker for failing to disclose multiple stock transactions.
According to the complaint, Blumenthal and his wife purchased stock on the popular app Robinhood. At the same time, he urged Congress to investigate the platform for its trading practice.
“In the last quarter of 2021, Blumenthal’s wife sold between $1,265,000 and $2,550,000 shares of Robinhood stock through her family fund. As part of those trades, Blumenthal’s family sold up to $550,000 of Robinhood shares on Dec. 8, 2021, but did not disclose it until February 2, 2022 — after the reporting deadline,” the complaint explains.
Lawmakers who have made questionable stock trades have faced criticism from both sides of the political aisle, especially throughout the coronavirus pandemic. more

I can’t believe they’re treating a war hero this way.
The whole fucking bunch of them are scum.
We have a mafia running the GD country.
“Lawmakers who have made questionable stock trades have faced criticism”. Now that there is the epitome of deterrence.
I can’t believe that I’m interrupting my balmy 81°F Sunday afternoon to comment on yet another wicked dimocrat.
Wonder if he was trading stock in Browning Arms Company?
Dummy should have gotten Pelosi’s Husband to do it for him.
Amateur.
From DaNang Dick(head) to the people of Connecticut:
Yes…I blatantly lied to you…I surely did.
But…all of you are too stupid to care, so vote for me anyway. Honesty is irrelevant.
Smarter ….
Sunday?
The Senate Select Committee on Ethics, like other ethics committees, is where ethics complaints go to die. A watchdog group should already know that.
Yeah, he’s our boy here in Corupticut! Saying Blumenthal and ethics in the same sentence is like peeing in your own coffee cup and drinking it.
He proves over and over again that you can suck enough.
Surprising! I’ve been making 100 Dollars an hour since I started freelance on the Internet six months ago. I work long hours a day from home and do the basic work that I get from the business I met online. share this work for you opportunity This is definitely the best job I have ever done

Hang that stolen valor m’Fer by the neck until dead.
Enough republicans are corrupt that we know we have to boot 80 percent of them out, but EVERY democrat is corrupt (except Manchin?) and treasonous.
Blumenthal is particularly odious: he is happy to advertise his communist affiliations, and worse: he is a military imposter!

So Danang Dick lied and committed crimes again?
That is an average day in the office for that POS.
