I guess if you use technical, fancy terms like "he bought in the dip," it's all okay.

As Democrats on the panel criticized Greene, two of them Reps. Greg Casar and Jasmine Crockett, both of Texas brought up recent stock trades made by the congresswoman.
"We're here because Chairwoman Marjorie Taylor Greene thinks that if she picks on vulnerable people like trans folks, she can avoid having a discussion about the allegations of insider trading against her," Casar said.
Greene purchased tens of thousands of dollars in stock in an array of companies between April 2 and 9, when President Donald Trump's tariff announcement and subsequent pause led to large shifts in the stock market. The congresswoman has maintained that the trades were made by an independent financial advisor.
"That's something that my portfolio manager does for me, and he did a great job," the congresswoman told the Georgia Recorder last month. "Guess what he did? He bought the dip."

Wish we could check phone records to find out if there was a call between MTG and her stock investor before he bought in the dip. Trump sent a message to his inner circle and they responded by contacting their proxies. That's how I see it.

Probably used Signal, so unless they accidentally invited their housekeeper or babysitter we will never know.
