Back on March 3 and March 7, Marjorie Taylor Greene executed two stock trades — per Finbold’s congressional trading radar, in both instances, the controversial congresswoman from Georgia purchased between $1,001 and $15,000 worth of Dollar General stock (NYSE: DG). These investments came just days after President Trump formally announced that tariffs would be imposed.

Apart from Dollar General, some of her more interesting trades include buying local bottoms of Apple stock (NASDAQ: AAPL) and RH stock (NYSE: RH). In addition, the congresswoman made a $15,001 to $50,000 investment in the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT).
