On March 5, 2026, Rep. Haley Stevens introduced the No Getting Rich in Congress Act, a sweeping proposal aimed at cracking down on insider trading and financial conflicts of interest in Washington.
The legislation would ban the President, Vice President, and members of Congress along with their spouses and dependents from buying or selling individual stocks, futures, commodities, or cryptocurrency. It would also establish strict financial reporting requirements and penalties for violations.
The bill includes additional ethics reforms, such as prohibiting former public officials from lobbying on behalf of foreign adversaries, restricting members of Congress and their spouses from serving on corporate boards, and expanding gift, travel, and reimbursement rules to cover spouses and dependents.
Supporters say the measure is designed to close long-standing loopholes and restore trust in government by ensuring public service is focused on serving the American people rather than personal financial gain.On March 5, 2026, Rep.

Reports suggest that North Korean schoolchildren are being taught unusual stories about their leader, Kim Jong-un, as part of a new school subject focused on his life and “revolutionary works.”
According to a teacher’s manual reported by South Korea’s TV Chosun through the UPI news agency, the material claims Kim learned to drive at just three years old. It also says that by the age of nine he raced the chief executive of a visiting foreign yacht company and won despite the odds.
These lessons are reportedly part of wider efforts within the country’s education system to highlight the leader’s achievements and build a strong public image through state-directed teaching.
Analysts say the approach mirrors earlier propaganda surrounding former leader Kim Jong-il, where stories of extraordinary abilities and achievements were also promoted to shape the leader’s public image and strengthen loyalty among citizens.Reports suggest that North Korean schoolchildren are being taught unusual stories about their leader, Kim Jong-un, as part of a new school subject focused on his life and “revolutionary works.” According to a teacher’s manual reported by South Korea’s TV Chosun through the UPI news agency, the material claims Kim learned to drive at just three years old.
