Yesterday

this morning, asking if Uday and Qusay would be indicted for their slick trades on insider information. They discussed trump asking if the soldier had bet on a successful ouster of Maduro, comparing the soldier's outlook to Pete Rose's, who only bet on his team winning.

Last I heard, just being a family member of an insider means you have access to privileged information, whether you actually received help or not. But maybe this has changed.
