    Joaquin Castro Retweeted Yamiche Alcindor

    As a member of the House Intelligence Committee, I know that our committee receives sensitive information, including assessments and projections, before others in Congress and the general public (if ever). Senator Burr should suspend his chairmanship pending investigation.https://twitter.com/Yamiche/status/1240748998023172096 …

    Joaquin Castro added,

    WOW. Soon after he offered public assurances that the government was ready to battle coronavirus, Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr sold off between $582,029 and $1.56 million of his holdings on Feb. 13 in 29 separate transactions. https://www.propublica.org/article/senator-dumped-up-to-1-6-million-of-stock-after-reassuring-public-about-coronavirus-preparedness …

        Chairman Burr, because he is part of the Gang of Eight, receives even more sensitive information than the other members of the House and Senate Intelligence Committees.

        He should not just resign his chairmanship. He should resign from the senate and never hold a position of public trust for the rest of his miserable wretched life.

        Much of the American public believes that the corruption racket in politics revolves around campaign finance. I think more of it revolves around personal corruption, like this example.

        Is this why Trump didn’t act right away...needed to give everyone time to sell their holdings?
