  "account": "Mississippi Representative Michael Patrick Guest sold shares in Airbnb, Chevron, and e.l.f. Beauty during the second quarter of 2026. Airbnb's shares were sold as the stock neared its 52-week high of $187, having gained 48% over the last six months and 36% year-to-date. The congressman's sale of Airbnb shares was among several others executed from the Trust - KF19 account, with each sale valued between $1,001 and $15,000. These trades were only disclosed in August 2026, despite occurring in December 2025, due to an oversight by a compliance firm. Guest specified that he played no part in the trust's decisions and was not consulted on these trades. Nonetheless, he must report these transactions as his family is beneficiaries of the trust. Shares in ExxonMobil were surrendered due to a name change, also within the $1,001 - $15,000 range.",
