53. She profits hugely by being in Congress and wants more

Thu Oct 30, 2025, 03:40 PM

Oct 30

Since joining Congress in 2021, her net worth has skyrocketed, jumping from around $700,000 to as much as $25 million.
....
Greene has also executed 450 stock trades since 2021, the year she joined the House. She purchased between $15,001 and $50,000 worth of shares in Trump’s social media venture, Digital World Acquisition Corp., in October 2021, which was the SPAC that merged with Trump Media & Technology Group. As of last year, Greene’s public disclosures have not shown that she sold the stock, but a spokesman for Greene said she “holds no stocks at this time.” It is currently unknown whether or not she still owns these shares.
