Trumps Cronies rake in the bucks while the “little people” suffer:
US Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene made hefty trades days before Donald Trump‘s tariffs announcement tanked the stock market.
The MAGA proponent made 15 investments between March 16 and March 24. Her three largest moves were putting hundreds of thousands of dollars towards US Treasury Bills, also know as T-Bills.

On March 16, March 19 and March 24, Greene spent $100,000 to $250,000 per transaction on T-Bills, according to Capitol Trades, a platform devoted to sharing politician trading data.
The Trump ally invested between $300,000 and $750,000 in Treasuries, according to the filings.
These massive purchases were sprinkled among multiple smaller ones that spanned from $1,000 to $5,000 in companies including Apple Inc, AbbVie Inc and Costco Wholesale Group.
