Thanks all. Based on the suggestion to not use T-Mobile as a carrier I did some googling and went with Visible Wireless. It's on the Verizon carrier. Instantly went from E to LTE in my home. Unlimited data. And it's cheaper to boot.

Is this related to something happening in Springfield today?

yea, I went pre-covid too. So maybe I'm not used to how they are running things now.

When I went I was upset it was ever called off at all. like, I'm paying an exceptional amount of money to attend, and your professors can't handle a little snow? Do I get a refund for the lectures I wasn't allowed to attend?

You mean, like ever calling anyone out for anything? Why?

There are about 1000 news articles about Pelosi insider trading. I already linked several elsewhere in this comment section.

No? Do you have any evidence of his insider trading?

at least you can admit you agree, unlike a few others on this thread.

Allowing the congress person to personally do the inside trading vs forcing the to recruit their family does add some friction to the corruption.

I understand the issue you getting at, but I also see the other perspective. For example, if my dad became a senator I'd def feel a little strange that I now was barred from interacting with the stock market.

Is it better to have some restrictions (with possible loopholes), or no restrictions?

Yes, I agree. It soundly counterd the previous comment.

Where did you hear that from?

Ok, but is that relevant? I'm asking you to consider this bill and, more importantly, show support for the bill. Does how Hawley feels about tiktok in any way change whether congresspeople should be trading stock while in office?

9/11

Yes.

Brah. Ain't nobody keeping you here.

I don't think you should take the position that politicians should go to jail for claiming an election was stolen. Plenty of Dems have made this claim as well.

In the same sense that everyone charged with a crime should have a right to a lawyer, politicians should have the right to challenge an election (even when they are clearly wrong).

He should go to prison for objecting? Isn't that kind of what politicians are supposed to do?

Previously you said:

> This whole bill is designed for one thing, “owning the libs,”

So do you also think the previous bill was designed to "own the Republicans"?

> Just because republicans don't

You seriously think all Republicans are bad faith? And the only ones actually interested in helping are Dems?

She is just saying those things for the publicity, exactly as many are claiming about Hawley in this thread.

I never really thought about it like that, but he does seem like the other side of the coin from AOC.

The previous bill sponsored by the Dems (text) also had carve outs for a "blind trust." What else did your cursory reading tell you that it is utter garbage?

Just curious, what do you dislike about Hawley? I have heard enough from all the liberals on this sub about how horrible he his, but I haven't heard it from a conservative perspective.
