Interesting. SHifting funds into T Bills right before tariff announcements. I am sure she is just really good at reading market conditions.

US Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene made hefty trades days before Donald Trump's tariffs announcement tanked the stock market.
The MAGA proponent made 15 investments between March 16 and March 24. Her three largest moves were putting hundreds of thousands of dollars towards US Treasury Bills, also know as T-Bills.
T-Bills are short-term debt obligations that are considered low risk, so they may bring in lower returns than other kinds of investments.
But the low-risk nature of T-Bills means investors are highly unlikely to experience losses on their money, making them a safer bet than regular stocks.
On March 16, March 19 and March 24, Greene spent $100,000 to $250,000 per transaction on T-Bills, according to Capitol Trades, a platform devoted to sharing politician trading data.
The Trump ally invested between $300,000 and $750,000 in Treasuries, according to the filings.
These massive purchases were sprinkled among multiple smaller ones that spanned from $1,000 to $5,000 in companies including Apple Inc, AbbVie Inc and Costco Wholesale Group.
Greene's stock moves came in the days leading up to Trump's 'Liberation Day' declaration on Wednesday.
