The midterm elections will be here before you know it and both Democrats and Republicans are struggling to find a confident leader to put in their respective parties ahead of the other. So pick up from there, pick up from there. There's just so many problems to talk about with both of the parties. The biggest one, obviously right now you've got the Democratic party, they did get a victory, right? The infrastructure bill passed the Senate earlier this week. But they've got a huge liability actually in the form of vice-president Kamala Harris. It turns out the public really doesn't like her at all. She has had all kinds of missteps, reports from the media about total dysfunction within her staff, where the staff says your decision-making is garbage and we do not trust your vision on anything at this point. And then of course, a recent meeting that all of her allies had to have to say, what the hell can we do? Because she's killing us. Yeah. I mean, you know, look. Who, we had, we had Elizabeth Warren could, you know, she'd had been a great vice president. That Gabby, Gabby Tulsi. Tulsi Gabbard. Tulsi Gabbard. I mean, you know, you had some people who really had some qualifications, this was purely in-house Democratic politics, California demanding that we had to have her on the. And now it's almost it's, it's, it's nauseated. Yeah. You see her at the border or when she finally went to the border, giggling like it's funny. I mean, I waiting for her to giggle about a potential war with China. This, this take on, on this woman and, and let me just tell you something. I dare somebody to say that we' ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUf-ZuOdhIQ

Congressional stock trading is at an all time high, and members of Congress are so good at trading stocks that they routinely beat the average market returns. Then, new polls show that the American public isn’t just sick of Biden and Trump – they have grown disgusted by the entire political process in this country, and that includes our two-party system of government. Mike Papantonio & Farron Cousins discuss more.

Congressional stock trading is at an all time high, and members of Congress are so good at trading stocks that they routinely beat the average market by miles. There's little doubt that they're using inside knowledge to do that. We'd be arrested if we were the average citizen for doing exactly what they get away with every day. The numbers are startling. I mean, this cat, the numbers are ranging, let me see here, with increases above the market average as high as 200%. In other words, if the S&P is at X, they're beating the X by 200, 250% because of insider trading, right? This is what Nancy Pelosi fought so hard to try to make sure that we could continue doing that. Remember when it came up, Nancy, you're making what, 70%, 65% above the market. You're not doing that because you're so smart. You're doing it, Nancy, because you have information that no other Americans have, right? Yeah. And, look, this report kind of makes it crystal clear. This is a big bipartisan thing here. You've got Democrats who actually are worse with, what was it, 7,000? Yes. Versus 3000 for Republicans. And the top, as you pointed out, was Brian Higgins, Democrat from New York, 238.9% above average market return. You can't make those numbers just guessing on stocks. You don't. Let's stop just a second. Average person's at home, okay, they're reading the news, they're trying to talk to their broker. They may have their pension program tied up in there, their retirement program tied up in there. They're counting on the money because if they retire, they've gotta live on that, right? So all they have is the information everybody else has. Same stuff you would have, or I would have. These cats up in Congress like Pelosi and this guy that, what was the number? 123% higher than the S&P. I mean. Yeah. You got Higgins. Higgins, yeah, Brian Higgins. You've got, but these numbers are to where the reason they're able to do that is because they got to committee meeting, right? In the committee, they say, well, we're gonna sell a bunch of weapons to Saudi Arabia. So what does that person do? Hey, we're gonna sell a bunch of weapons to Saudi Arabia, Mr. Broker, you need to know that information. That's insider trading. Any way you look at it. It affects policy. It affects war policy. It affects economic policy. It affects health policy, right? It does. And they also know things too, not just about the big things coming. They also know about the bad things coming. Like, hey, we just had a hearing. We're going to possibly subpoena the heads of the pharmaceutical companies. I need you to dump everything Pfizer, dump everything Merck, dump it, dump it, dump it. So when this happens, those stocks are gonna tank and I'm not gonna be a part of it. I'll sell while I can get out. They actually know the names of the people. They know the names of the company, with Silicon Valley, great example. Members of Congress sold, they sold SVB long before it became a problem, because that's insider information. And so what do we say? Well, if we catch you, Mrs. Pelosi, we're gonna hit you for the $200 fine. Are you kidding me? Yeah. The Stock Act that is supposed to ban these people from doing it, if they get caught $200 fine. Okay, well, I just made a 240% on my a hundred thousand dollar investment. Yeah. I'll give you 200 bucks. I'll give you 400 bucks because I'm gonna tell you right now, I'm gonna do it again. Because there's no punishment for any of these people. They actually have something called the Pelosi Act. She was so bad about it. It's the Pelosi act of 2023. And this other cat, the Democrat that says, look. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVGB_sXydYw
