"(WASHINGTON) — The House passed a bill banning Congress and executive branch officials from insider trading, but brushed aside a provision aimed at reining in those who pry financial information from Congress and sell it to investment firms."

While it's not surprising, reading that US Congresscritters have been enriching themselves for the exact actions for which other Americans are jailed (Hi Martha !) is still nauseating in the extreme.

And this 'exception' ? Blech.

just to clarify the obvious-

and this republican exception? Blech.
