How do so many members of Congress enter office with modest means… and leave as millionaires with stock picks that rival hedge funds? In this episode, we follow the money, expose the loopholes, and unpack the real story behind the STOCK Act, the quietly repealed rules, and why the gaslighting around reform might be worse than the corruption itself.

We also explore why term limits, book deals, and blind trusts aren’t the fix-all solutions they claim to be — and why the rest of us are left holding the narrative bag.

Featuring a shoutout to the only man who can deadlift and decode legislation at the same time.
