According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.

It might be funny coming from a person who does interviews for a living, but these tech guys need to sit down (in this case actually) and shut up. The more they talk, the more we see and what we see is unearned aggrievement and deep insecurity that manifests as exhausting arrogance.

They will willingly and happily throw anyone under the bus to save themselves. This admiral needs to speak out but they probably already forced him to sign a NDA. Probably threatening him and his family to take whatever happens and roll with it even if it’s a prison term.
