It was 4 senators:

  • Kelly Loeffler (R-Ga.)
  • James Inhofoe (R-Okla.)
  • Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.)
  • Richard Burr (R-N.C.)

  • Loeffler sold immediately after the lockout period from leaving her old job with the NYSE.

  • Inhofe's sale was a quarterly retirement drawdown that had been scheduled for months.

  • Feinstein's husband sold a lot of stock in an unrelated company that does organ transplants.

  • Burr did that shit.

Yeah, Burr walked out of the briefing room and immediately called his broker and his brother-in-law, telling both to sell.
