Next up is the story that started it all:

Next up is the revelation that Perdue used info from his position as Chairman of an Armed Services Subcommittee on Seapower to acquire up to $190K worth of stock in a company that worked on - wait for it - submarines. https://www.thedailybeast.com/sen-david-perdue-helped-defense-contractor-and-sold-off-its-stock
Then we found out that David Perdue was actually investigated by the Justice Department over his stock sale of at least $1M in a company where he sat on the board...weeks before the stock price tumbled. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/25/us/politics/david-perdue-cardlytics.html
Then we learned that David Perdue has made 2,596 stock trades during his term (more than many Senators combined), including those for a company called FireEye that was directly involved in a subcommittee he sat on, one of MANY "well-timed" trades. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/02/us/politics/david-perdue-stock-trades.html
And now we learn that David Perdue also purchased Pfizer stocks one week before a vaccine announcement.
