Politicians Are Cashing In on War—Again

Politicians Are Cashing In on War—Again

This shouldn’t even be controversial, yet here we are.

Last month, a politician introduced the Stop Politicians Profiting from War Act, aiming to ban Congress members, their spouses, and kids from investing in companies that profit from war—like Lockheed Martin, Palantir, and Raytheon Technologies.

But you know the saying: “Show me the incentive, and I’ll show you the outcome.”

🔴 Meet Scott Franklin

• This morning, he disclosed buying up to $80K in Lockheed Martin stock.

• Oh, and he literally sits on the Senate Military Construction Subcommittee—which might be a conflict of interest.

• Since his February 18th buy? He's up 10%.

🔴 Then There’s Markwayne Mullin

• Back in September, he bought Raytheon stock—less than a month before the Gaza conflict began.

• The result? That stock is up 79% since.

• And surprise, surprise—he sat on the Armed Services Committee at the time.

Reminder: These are the people who vote on war decisions. They literally profit from war.

For two years, I’ve been pushing to ban politicians from trading stocks—but since they refuse, I built Autopilot, an app that lets you track and invest alongside them (with an option to blacklist war stocks if you want no part in this).

If they won’t fix the corruption, we might as well expose it.
