Congressman Chris Collins Insider Trading Indictment

Republican Congressman Chris Collins was indicted on insider trading charges related to an Australian pharmaceutical company, Innate Immunotherapeutics. Collins allegedly tipped off his son about failed drug trial results, allowing family members to avoid $768,000 in losses. The hosts distinguished this from the legal "insider trading" often practiced by members of Congress through committee knowledge.

Chris Cuomo WikiLeaks Warning, CNN Satellite Glitch

CNN's Chris Cuomo is criticized for telling viewers it is "illegal" for the public to possess stolen WikiLeaks documents, claiming only the media has that right. The hosts also play a clip of a satellite feed dropping conveniently as Congressman Collins begins to discuss WikiLeaks on CNN. They mock Cuomo's reaction to the "glitch" as a transparent attempt to censor damaging information about Hillary Clinton.
