Sen. Paul revealed his wife in February 2020 purchased up to $15,000 in stock in Gilead Sciences, maker of antiviral drug remdesivir. The financial disclosure was over a year late because the initial filing wasn't properly transmitted, a spokeswoman says.

Washington Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky revealed Wednesday that his wife in February 2020 purchased up to $15,000 in stock in Gilead Sciences, the maker of the antiviral drug remdesivir.

Remdesivir later became the first drug to be approved for treating Covid-19. Paul's filing with the Senate shows that between $1,000 and $15,000 of Gilead stock was purchased.The STOCK Act -- which was enacted in 2012 to outlaw congressional insider trading, or the use of nonpublic information for one's financial benefit -- requires trade disclosures within 45 days. Paul's reporting came 16 months late.

Now do Pelosi 🤣🤣 compared to the millions by others fucking laughable

Surprised face.

As long as they are allowed to ignore rules or make fun of rules, the problems will grow. A company would not allow these issues. The individual would be removed to show the tolerance level. They can be removed from entering the building and it is their constituents that suffer.

I mean if you knew something and only bet 15k .... Seems like a nothing burger

NO, the disclosure was late because he needed time to allow the Shares to go as high as possible, then, he needed time to sell his Stock before anyone found out. Now, he's made his profit, he can't be touched, and he will now play the victim and cry.

I guess RandPaul can be arrested.

Greed knows no bounds.

Had to be called gilead lol

Sure it was his wife… Just like it was Ted’s wife and kids at fault for him going to Mexico… yep Riiiiiiiiiiiiiight…

Great that he helped (in participating in) the company. Next (s)he should donate all revenues to charity.

Cool story. I don’t hear you say anything about Gates and his BioNTech investment forcing us to take his vaccines.

Yeah, $15,000 is not a lot for a politician. What about Nancy Pelosi $5.3 million Big Tech bet?
