         The script does set some Google cookies on load (frequency

         US-first launch so AdSense verification passes. Before serving

        # Blind Trust — Congress trades. We keep the box score.


        **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.


        ## What you can do here


        
          - [News desk](/news) — daily editorial pieces on the highest-scoring trades, vote-trade overlaps, and STOCK Act enforcement gaps. Articles cite the underlying filings by hyperlink.

          - [Power Rankings](/leaderboard) — every current House and Senate member, ranked by trade win rate, average alpha, and Heat Index counts over the trailing 12 months.

          - [Roll-call votes](/votes) — 119th Congress vote record overlaid with stock-trade activity around each vote.

          - [STOCK Act late filers](/late-filers) — disclosures filed past the 45-day window mandated by the STOCK Act, ranked by gap length and frequency.

          - [Supreme Court justices](/justices) — annual financial disclosures for the nine sitting US Supreme Court justices.

          - [Fantasy Congress](/fantasy) — free fantasy-sports game where you draft a roster of US Congress members and score on their real public STOCK Act disclosures. No real-money wagers.

        
        ## How the Heat Index works


        The Heat Index combines five inputs: (1) the 30-day forward alpha of the traded ticker versus the S&P 500, (2) the politician's committee-jurisdiction overlap with the company's sector, (3) the recency of a relevant roll-call vote, (4) the size of the disclosed trade range, and (5) the gap between trade date and disclosure date. Blazing trades score 70+. Warm trades score 40–69. Cold trades score below 40. [Full scoring methodology →](/methodology)
