'This is number 1,000 on my priority list of things to care about,' Crenshaw said.
Texas Representative Dan Crenshaw slammed a proposal calling for a ban on congressional members trading on the stock market, branding accusations of insider trading as 'bull***** headlines.'Speaking to The Free Press, the Republican hit back at allegations that he used his position in Congress to 'beat' the stock market, addressing claims made by Fox News anchor Jesse Watters about his finances.
'I had to send a letter to Fox News, a threatening letter from my lawyers, threatening them with defamation because Jesse Watters had basically insinuated that I was insider trading. Of course, it's not true—you'd be more surprised by how little information we have,' the congressman said.'This is one of those bills that's like, some people support it. Sure. OK. Who cares? Because I barely have anything in the market anyways.
