Suozzi rakes in $$$ through shady stock trade

Shady Suozzi is back to his old tricks…

Democrat Tom Suozzi pocketed $50,000 after selling off Global Industries Co. stock just ahead of President Trump’s Liberation Day tariff announcements in April, according to Fortune.

Congress previously investigated Suozzi for “his often opaque trading habits.”

More from Fortune:

“But Suozzi’s March 31 sale of up to $50,000 worth of Global Industrial Co. stock is notable for what it’s not: The congressman has never publicly disclosed owning the stock, prompting the question of how a federal lawmaker can sell a security he doesn’t appear to own in the first place.

The answer? Suozzi simply didn’t disclose his Global Industrial Co. stock, which he obtained more than two years ago, because of an apparent loophole in federal law—a loophole recently closed by Congress to address stock situations precisely like Suozzi’s, according to a Fortune review of federal documents and interviews with government officials.”
