Shock Report: Preet Was Probing Price

[Lakhota]

Fired U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara Said to Have Been Investigating HHS Secretary Tom Price

By Robert Faturechi ProPublica, March 17, 2017, 2:13 p.m.

Former U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara, who was removed from his post by the Trump administration last week, was overseeing an investigation into stock trades made by the president’s health secretary, according to a person familiar with the office.

Tom Price, head of the Department of Health and Human Services, came under scrutiny during his confirmation hearings for investments he made while serving in Congress. The Georgia lawmaker traded hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of shares in health-related companies, even as he voted on and sponsored legislation affecting the industry.

Price testified at the time that his trades were lawful and transparent. Democrats accused him of potentially using his office to enrich himself. One lawmaker called for an investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission, citing concerns Price could have violated the STOCK Act, a 2012 law signed by President Obama that clarified that members of Congress cannot use nonpublic information for profit and requires them to promptly disclose their trades.

The investigation of Price’s trades by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York, which hasn’t been previously disclosed, was underway at the time of Bharara’s dismissal, said the person.

Yep. the man was a mole. Glad Trump wised up and got rid of him.

 

[Penelope]

Price is nasty, I doubt if he even treated Medicare pts let alone Medicaid. He belonged to AAPS. Attorney Preet Bharara was too good at getting rid of corruption, he did a lot of good.

And now Trump is protecting the Republicans involved in corruption and also Fox news.

Preet Bharara is just another partisan piece of shit who abuses his office for political gain. He is typical of the kind of douche bag that Obama had in his administration.

Why would canning this douche bag mean fraud would no longer be prosecuted in New York? Trump got rid of him because he's obviously a partisan hack.

How stupid are you?

Just a rhetorical question.

US Attorneys do little if any of their office's work...they are political appointees who avoid offending their masters. He could have resigned as required, but decided to launch his run for the governor's chair instead. He has no dignity, no honor.....publicity whore.

The guy was pure scum. He never went after corrupt Jewish bankers on Wall Street.

Uh, yeah, because Trump is going to appoint someone who won't prosecute fraud.

What was his/her claim? I'm debating you, not him/her.

 

[Reasonable]

The guy was pure scum. He never went after corrupt Jewish bankers on Wall Street.

Liar. HUGE liar.
in recent years Mr. Bharara had turned into the “Sheriff of Wall Street” by aggressively prosecuting hedge fund managers for insider trading. The New Yorker magazine called him “The Man Who Terrifies Wall Street.”

Sounds like he was running a partisan witch hunt against people who simply managed to make a lot of money.
