Sen. Kelly Loeffler Denies Reports of Insider Trading

Sen. Kelly Loeffler (D-Ga.) appeared on Fox News’ “America’s Newsroom” where she faced some tough questions.

Loeffler is facing allegations that both she and her husband sold stocks knowing that the markets were going downhill amid the 🦠Coronavirus Outbreak, as IJR previously reported.

She originally denied the allegations claiming it was only the third party advisers who knew of the immediate transactions.

Host Ed Henry asked Loeffler “were you trading on inside information about what was coming?”

Loeffler pointed out she was there to set the record straight.

“It’s absolutely false and it could not be true,” Loeffler said, adding, “If you actually look at the personal transaction reports that were filed, it notices at the bottom that I’m only informed of my transactions after they occur several weeks.”

Henry pressed Loeffler on who these third party advisers are and how they had a good understanding of where the market was going.

She responded to the question claiming she is not involved in certain decisions.
