John J. McGuire III

Each lead lines up three public records: a trade John J. McGuire III disclosed, a USAspending action on a contract with the same company within 90 days of it, and a seat on a committee that oversees or funds the agency involved. They are leads built from public records, not findings of wrongdoing.

• Traded MSFT 23 days after the Defense Department acted on a $172.5M order

  John J. McGuire III (R-VA) reported 1 purchase and 1 sale of Microsoft Corp (MSFT) between January 21, 2026 and January 30, 2026 in an account the report lists as the spouse's, according to a transaction report disclosed February 10, 2026. USAspending records an action by the Department of Defense on December 29, 2025, 23 days before the nearest trade, on a delivery order (HC102821F1170) with Microsoft Corporation whose total value is $172.5M. McGuire sits on the House Committee on Armed Services, which oversees the Department of Defense. 2 other contracts with the company have an action inside the same 90-day window. December 29, 2025 was the latest action USAspending listed for that contract when it was pulled on September 18, 2026; the contract itself may be years older, and $172.5M is its total value, not the amount of that action. The records do not show who placed the trade or that anyone involved knew of the contract.
