Dem Front Runner Caught In Illegal Act

It has now been discovered that Democratic Rep. Jamie Raskin broke the federal conflict-of-interest law by failing to properly disclose stock shares that his wife received for work she had done at a Colorado-based financial technology company.

According to Fox, Raskin disclosed information about the transaction in August 2021. It was 8 months after his wife Sarah Bloom Raskin sold 195,936 shares of Reserve Trust for an astounding $1.5 million.

While politicians and their spouses are legally allowed to trade stocks, Raskin’s broke the law by failing to properly disclose the information which was a violation of the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act.

Raskin says that he failed to disclose the information because he was distraught over their 25-year-old son’s death which had recently happened on on Dec. 31, 2020. 

“We lost our son during the reporting period, and I filed the report late,” Raskin said.
