(129,543 posts)Complete bullshit statement that completely misses the fact that he had inside knowledge and alerted his son to sell millions of $$ in stock along with his family and friends.

(62,276 posts)The son immediately sells his stock, the wife immediately sells the stock, and they talk to other people about the stock (people who also sold their stock and are unnamed in the indictment, so they are very likely witnesses who have immunity; give the guy who saved himself $22k immunity to bust the guy who saved $500k).

(62,276 posts)They literally believe that since Jesus forgives their sins, it's ok to sin, because all they have to do is ask for forgiveness.
But they conveniently forget one scripture: And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

And the Democrat running, Nate McMurray, is smart as a whip, honest, humorous, tireless, and is about to be our next rep in the NY-27th, mark my words.

(3,435 posts)this pharmaceutical company, which means that the leadership knew that at the very least they had a huge conflict of interest here. This would be something to investigate when the Dems take control of the house

(872 posts)He's not going to get a 100 year sentence. Probably will be well under 10.
I would not be surprised if he gets a pardon.

(872 posts)I will just be happy if he gets a couple of years in jail, and his career goes in the toilet.

(49,410 posts)Collins was the 1st congress person to endorse Trump. His continued promotion of Trump gained him enough legitimacy to gather more support.
Now America is in a helluva mess. And the planet, if we consider the delay in addressing climate change.
