DOGE announced these politicians will be investigated. Will they go to Prison?

I don't care if they're Democrat or Republican. They need to go to prison.

Are they an investigative body that can actually make criminal referrals?

Thing is, Congress passes laws that apply to us but not to them. That needs to end. Need term limits as well.

And that's OK. But did his networth increase due to improper insider trading?

No. His net worth increased because he's a very successful businessman that has deep ties into healthcare companies and was worth ~$400MM before congress

IIRC, they can insider trade all they want and it's legal.

The rest of us, not so much.

9 Republican Senators.

Someone like Ricketts was wealthy WAY before he became an elected official. His father founded TD Ameritrade.

I'd be surprised if he is investigated.

His company is rumored to have committed a lot of Medicare fraud, which his wealth is based on. Only thing I'll say is that I believe it based on other sources.

I know nothing about him and these sort of exceptions aren't the point of the thread. If anything Trump is one of the richest and we know he was a wealthy businessman.

Point is will DOGE find improper or illegal behaviors of the swamp and will they go to Prison?

I don't care anymore. Congress critters get all sorts of special privileges us peasants do not. Time for some special restrictions. I would support no active stock trading while Congress is in session. Don't like it, don't pursue a career in politics. It needs to go back to being a pure servant leader position.

Elections are when people find out what politicians stand for, and politicians find out what people will fall for.

Disappointing that Crenshaw isn't on the list, but a good start nonetheless.

His net worth isn't that high yet. But his market returns are exponentially higher than normal trends.

Oh I'm sure he does. Had a real estate transaction with him years ago. The guy is a real A-hole. Incredibly demanding and entitled.

The search parameter should be wealth delta since entering congress not total value. That would likely tag Crenshaw and other thieves.

I know i gross more than congress but somehow I'm not a multimillionaire.
