Another one was she bought a mining company called Helka Mining with ticker symbol HL. That stock has been fluctuating here and there. And I think she is up around 15% on it. She sits on one of the energy resources committees. And it's like... What are we doing?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So he's a tough one. He's a hothead on Twitter now.
Yeah, I don't understand why he's taken this stance a little bit.
Yeah, because he used to be like a right-wing darling. Like he was, you know, with the Navy SEALs, I think, early, early on.
But he's showing it now. Did you see the free press he did where we posted this? He essentially comes out. He's like supporting politicals, politicians, stock trading. He's like, if you get rid of it, you're going to get crappy politicians. And it's like, what are you talking about? You know, like we're not asking you guys to get paid.
Exactly. Yeah.
Yeah, so he had a fiery one with the free press probably about like two months ago, right before Thanksgiving. I saw that. His portfolio, though, in particular, he's up around like 48% to 50%. And all of this... You know, I got to say this for compliance reasons. Like you can see all this on our app. You know, it's all right there. So I may kind of be depending on the day.
But he outperformed the market. He was right below Pelosi. He's an idiot, though.
His stocks, the one that in particular that really frustrated me about him was Meta.
so he with the stocks that he's buying is his portfolio is comprised of meta which he's crushing it up like 200 he bought the dip perfectly back in 2022 i believe like pretty much perfectly the things started flying um he bought amazon he bought fas which is uh uh like uh finance etf he bought the spy and then he bought wind resorts and then he bought some other company the
The stock, though, that crushed it for him was Meta. And the part that I get annoyed about, you know, aside from TikTok bans, this and that, you can't... He buys the stock. A couple months later, starts pushing and publicly vocalizing, like, hey, everyone, we should ban TikTok. You know? And it's, like, pretty convenient to say when you own TikTok's main competitor.
And every time you're saying that, the stock's going up 5%. Uh... He then goes off and starts asking for the ban on, and again, I feel like I'm pretty pro-ban TikTok, so there's a whole world with that. But he then goes off and votes against the bill to ban TikTok. So now you got a politician that is buying TikTok's main competitor, Meta.
You're then publicly talking about how you want to ban it from government officials' phones to then voting on the bill to ban TikTok all while the stock has gone up 200% while you've owned it.
But don't yell at me. Yeah. Or even just help the conversation. Be like, yeah, I mean, if you guys are allowing us, like, I'll vote on it, this and that. Like, just be open and be transparent about it. Yes. You don't have to attack and, you know, gaslight.
Yeah, the free press one, I'll send it to you after.
That one gets my blood boiling because it's like – what frustrates me about this stuff is you can't sit on the committee. You can't be voting on these things. You can't be doing all this stuff in front of the American public. Meanwhile, I have a friend that is a consultant at –
ey or uh deloitte he can't trade individual stocks i got friends in banking that can't trade individual stocks it's like why can you not let the low-level analyst the jp morgan buy you know apple yeah meanwhile you got these politicians buying up this 500 million military construction company I know the answer.
I mean, that's kind of the short. Rules for the not for me. Is that a fair? Yeah, 100%. And what's the history of the Stock Act that started because of the housing crisis? Yeah. So it was initially introduced in 2006. And the Stock Act literally what it says is stop. Stop trading on congressional knowledge. That's what it means.
So if you have a bill that literally says stop trading on congressional knowledge as the name of the act, you know that there's something already sketchy going on. And why was that not a thing to begin with? And so what happened to it? So in 2006, it got introduced. No politicians cared about it. You know, whatever.
After the housing crisis, they found out and they realized that there were around 33 politicians that set their portfolios up after talking with the officials at the Fed and, you know, the people building up the monetary policy. They reconstructed their portfolios while that whole crisis was going on. They didn't have to display or publicly talk about it because the Stock Act wasn't announced.
