Everyone is taking about the difference between Obama's swamp and Trump's swamp.

Clearly it's fake news.

CNN isn't. The real reason for all the Russia bullshit is to distract the sheep from the coordination between @dnc and outlets like CNN

The emails were real and the collusion is spectacular

You can choose to believe this story that he was somehow unaware and that introducing this legislation days after his account purchased the stock was a crazy coincidence, but it's bullshit

Race, get your facts straight. It's actually $2,700, which is ten times more money than what 81% of this board's members make in a week.

She doesn't disprove anything.
The cnn report said he purchased between 1000 and 15000 dollars which he did and that the legislation was introduced on March 23rd. Which it was.

wait. You fell for this bullshit story?

It's funny watching the crowd that believed Obama was born a Kenyan Muslim is trying to cast doubt on this story.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer jumped on the story Tuesday and told reporters that Price "may have broken the law."

The dumbfuck can't even get Schumer's classification right.

It also sounds like Price has his money with a portfolio manager that actually makes investment decisions for him. If Price can provide a power of attorney, then I guess that's a legit excuse. If Price authorized it, that's pretty dumb considering Senators usually get paid a lot more with less risk criminally than a $2,700 insider trading deal.

PUNCHING BACK TWICE AS HARD: So I just got this letter from Trump’s transition team:
On January 16, 2017, CNN broadcast a story by Manu Raju, titled “First on CNN: Trump’s Cabinet pick invested in company, then introduced a bill to help it”, which omitted facts and drew conclusions in an effort to attack President-Elect Donald Trump’s designee for Secretary of Health and Human Services, Dr. Tom Price.

The facts were available to CNN through House Financial Disclosure Filings. Dr. Price’s position on the Comprehensive Joint Replacement demonstration, which date back to fall 2015, is also a matter of public record.

The facts are:

• Dr. Tom Price has a diversified portfolio with Morgan Stanley in a broker-directed account. The portfolio includes both health care and non-health care related stocks.
• Dr. Price’s Morgan Stanley financial advisor designed his portfolio and directed all trades in the account. Pursuant to the arrangement with Morgan Stanley, the financial advisor, and not Dr. Price, has the discretion to decide which securities to buy and sell in his account.
• Dr. Price’s financial advisor periodically rebalances his portfolio to ensure proper diversification. On March 17, 2016, Morgan Stanley undertook a comprehensive rebalancing of Dr. Price’s portfolio. In the course of that rebalancing, the advisor purchased 26 shares of Zimmer Biomet, worth $2,697.74, on behalf of Dr. Price.
• Dr. Price learned of the purchase of Zimmer Biomet on April 4, 2016, when his financial advisor sent him a list of trades to be disclosed on his House Periodic Transaction Report (PTR).
• Dr. Price submitted the PTR reflecting the March trades on April 15, 2016.
• Dr. Price began work on his legislative effort to delay the comprehensive joint replacement demonstration project in 2015 in order to preserve treatment options for patients. He sent a Dear Colleague letter regarding this effort on September 21, 2015.

The Presidential Transition Team requests that CNN retract this blatantly false story.

I'm kind of thinking the pick for the Dept of Education may in fact be an idiot. Probably not the best pick. But the problem the left is running into, repeatedly, is that by trying to destroy every pick, no matter how good they may be, with flimsy, stupid "evidence" such as this against Price, Session, etc, makes the common folk just roll their eyes when there is actually someone or something they ought to really be pissed about. Keep up the great work CNN, et. al. You are doing your part to make sure it's not just 4 years, it'll be 8.

That's not how America works, comrade

http://twitter.com/PaulBlu/status/821747731068809217?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

the wall street journal came out with a story a while ago showing 2 companies he invested in that his legislation would potentially benefit.
One of those companies was innate immuno.

Price admitted in the hearing today that he personally chose to purchase the stock in innate immuno.

Trump's team said that all of his trades were broker directed.

the fact that he received campaign contributions from that company after introducing that law is far worse. but that corruption is everywhere and not exclusive to price by any means

We're not talking about jailtime or him losing his house seat.

PUNCHING BACK TWICE AS HARD: So I just got this letter from Trump’s transition team:
On January 16, 2017, CNN broadcast a story by Manu Raju, titled “First on CNN: Trump’s Cabinet pick invested in company, then introduced a bill to help it”, which omitted facts and drew conclusions in an effort to attack President-Elect Donald Trump’s designee for Secretary of Health and Human Services, Dr. Tom Price.

The facts were available to CNN through House Financial Disclosure Filings. Dr. Price’s position on the Comprehensive Joint Replacement demonstration, which date back to fall 2015, is also a matter of public record.

The facts are:

• Dr. Tom Price has a diversified portfolio with Morgan Stanley in a broker-directed account. The portfolio includes both health care and non-health care related stocks.
• Dr. Price’s Morgan Stanley financial advisor designed his portfolio and directed all trades in the account. Pursuant to the arrangement with Morgan Stanley, the financial advisor, and not Dr. Price, has the discretion to decide which securities to buy and sell in his account.
• Dr. Price’s financial advisor periodically rebalances his portfolio to ensure proper diversification. On March 17, 2016, Morgan Stanley undertook a comprehensive rebalancing of Dr. Price’s portfolio. In the course of that rebalancing, the advisor purchased 26 shares of Zimmer Biomet, worth $2,697.74, on behalf of Dr. Price.
• Dr. Price learned of the purchase of Zimmer Biomet on April 4, 2016, when his financial advisor sent him a list of trades to be disclosed on his House Periodic Transaction Report (PTR).
• Dr. Price submitted the PTR reflecting the March trades on April 15, 2016.
• Dr. Price began work on his legislative effort to delay the comprehensive joint replacement demonstration project in 2015 in order to preserve treatment options for patients. He sent a Dear Colleague letter regarding this effort on September 21, 2015.

The Presidential Transition Team requests that CNN retract this blatantly false story.
