Let me know when you get around to holding your own side accountable. Until then it is just more partisan sniping without a desire to change anything.

Yeah, it would seem that way if you don't understand math or investments or how financial disclosures are reported.

That represents an eye-watering profit of 16,930% — compared to 2,300% for the Dow Jones over those years.

Even with the power of compound interest, the windfall represents a staggering 14.5% average annual return — beating out the S&P 500, NASDAQ and Dow Jones performances over those years, around 7% to 9%.

These numbers are based on the assumption that they didn't make any new investments over the last 38 years, which is stupid. Her husband is a professional investor.

Last year, their investment portfolio pulled in an estimated 54% return, more than double the S&P 500’s 25% gain — and beating every large hedge fund, according to numbers in Bloomberg’s end-of-year tally.

This is just a lie, even by NYP's own info. Financial disclosures aren't given in precise values; they're given in wide brackets or ranges of values. This 54% figure assumes the top end of the range between two years. In 2024, some of her investments jumped from the $500k-$1m bracket to the $1-5m bracket; and others from the $1-5m bracket to the $5-25m bracket. According to NY Post's smooth-brain-partisan-red-meat math, that equates to a 400% increase in one year.

It's not even sniping. It's just lying and intellectual laziness.

You know the easy way to deal with insider trading now that Republicans have full control of 3 branches?

Create laws to punish insider trading by elected officials and their families.

Go Republicans Go! I know how upset their base is about this. I'm SURE it'd be a no brainer.
