Last year the FBI seized Senator Richard Burr’s (R-NC) phone in connection with the federal probe into his stock trades.
Burr dumped as much as $1.72 million in hotel stocks before the Coronavirus panic hit the US while reassuring the public about Coronavirus preparedness.
This was also at the same time Burr was receiving daily briefings on the Coronavirus health threat.
It was also revealed Richard Burr’s brother-in-law called his broker and dumped stock just one minute after getting off the phone with the North Carolina senator, according to a report by ProPublica.
Democrat Senator Dianne Feinstein was also connected to suspicious stocks after the Coronavirus meeting.
According to Feinstein’s spox, the Democrat Senator voluntarily turned over documents to the FBI and answered questions about her husband’s stock transactions.
Feinstein claims she had nothing to do with her husband’s stock trades.
