Durbin cashed out during big stock collapse
Posted by admin under: Politics .
From the Chicago Sun-Times: As U.S. stock markets tanked last September, the Senate’s No. 2 Democrat, Dick Durbin, sold more than $115,000 worth of stocks and mutual-fund shares and used much of the money to invest in Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway Inc on Sept. 19 after meeting with meeting with Bernanke and Paulson on Sept. 18. Hummm, that’s just a coincidence, he would never use inside information to profiteer.
