What it does

Congress trades stocks. They're required to disclose. They're betting you don't care. Blind Trust turns those filings into a fantasy league — draft 12 lawmakers, earn points on their actual trades, and see exactly when they bought relative to the bills they voted on. All three branches. 16,000+ trades. Our editorial team writes the story when the timing is too good. Free to read. Free to play. Congress wishes it wasn't.

Every US Congressional stock trade, scored on the Heat Index. Free daily digest of the hottest plays from the Hill.

Blind Trust tracks every public stock-trade disclosure filed by a member of the United States Congress under the STOCK Act of 2012. Each trade is scored on a 0–100 Heat Index, flagged when its timing overlaps a committee vote or sector-moving news event, and surfaced in a daily editorial digest under the Beltway Alpha byline. Every receipt on this site links to a public filing. We don't have anonymous sources. We don't write "sources tell us." If a chart can't be pointed at — a Periodic Transaction Report, a roll-call vote, a committee roster, a published poll — we don't make the claim.

    Hey HN, I am the creator of senatestockwatcher.com and im finally happy to say that the same data that is filed from the House of Representatives is now live for everyone to watch, report against, and use. https://housestockwatcher.com When Senate Stock Watcher was released, the US was in the midst of an election year and after the COVID market crash the SEC had opened some investigations on 3 Senators for insider trading allegations. My interest in politics and finance lead me to build that website, but the number one question I always got was "where is the houses' data?" The…

    Congressional trading data is relatively commoditized, but I couldn't find any open-source version with the features I wanted. The data is lagged (median 28 days from trade to disclosure, and 19% miss this deadline), but there's still interesting patterns to explore.

  • Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
