Congress is full of millionaires — and in this episode of Factual America, we break down how that happens on a public salary. From perfectly timed stock trades to disclosure loopholes, we expose the legal system that quietly turns political power into personal wealth.
We dive into the insider edge behind market-beating portfolios, the revolving door that rewards former officials, and the weak enforcement that leaves the STOCK Act toothless.
If you want to understand how political profit became normalised in Washington, this episode has the answers.
