I had been using the SCOTUS thread for asking questions about the constitutionality of certain policy proposals and decided to split this off. I can edit the topic to add "and misc judicial branch stuff" if anyone wants that. https://theintercept.com/2015/05/07/congress-argues-cant-investigated-insider-trading/ It feels like there's something I'm missing. It's a violation of separation of powers when Congress is investigated by the SEC, but not the DOJ? The executive branch of the federal government is typically the one that investigates members of Congress guilty of misappropriating campaign funds or bribery, right? Could it be codified into a law that members of Congress can be investigated by the SEC, rather than a simple Congressional rule, so that it could be less easily overturned by a new Congress, or would that not be strong enough to stop a future block?
