Last week, ProPublica reported that Attorney General Pam Bondi sold more
than $1 million in stock the day Trump’s tariff announcement crashed the
market.
Today, ProPublica is out with a new report that Transportation Secretary
Sean Duffy sold stocks just a couple days before Trump announced his
“reciprocal” tariffs.

To quote Taylor Swift: “I think I’ve seen this film before, and I didn’t
like the ending.”
I’m tired of high-ranking government officials betraying the public trust
by trading stocks while they’re in office. This keeps happening again and
again, and nothing changes.
When I was in Congress, I spearheaded legislation to crack down on
top-level officials trading individual stocks. In my political work, I
would only endorse Congressional candidates who would commit to banning
Congressmembers from trading stocks.
We deserve leaders who uphold the highest ethical standards and avoid any
actions that would even give the appearance of a conflict of interest.
Every single government official can choose to do this (and of course, the
president should lead by setting a good example)—and if they won’t,
Congress needs to step up.
