Report: Company That Is Co-Founded by Pelosi’s Son, Is Charged With Securities Fraud And Has Connections With Ukraine
Right Journalism ^ | 01.16.2020 | Natalie Dagenhardt

What happens when a Democratic speaker of the House — second in line to the presidency, according to the Presidential Succession Act of 1947 — is suddenly thrust into the Oval Office, succeeding a Republican president and vice president who resign, embroiled in scandal?

Such a scenario is attracting attention — #PresidentPelosi was trending on social media this morning.

When I woke up with this news I couldn’t believe my eyes, but after a while, I realized that it’s impossible for a politician with a record like Nancy to get such an important position.

This is just another distraction of the real problems the Democrats have.

Some things the Dems didn’t want to come out to the public, that’s why they hate President Trump.

Prominent Democrat’s child was implicated in a different form of corporate corruption, in 2014, and, and was later tied to Ukraine, in 2017. That was the son of the House Minority Leader and current Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi.

Why would either Trump or Pence resign?

Why do people become politicians? Because like a famous bank robber said,

THAT’S WHERE THE MONEY IS!

Who else spends millions to get a job that pays in the five figures.

Nancy Pelosi's Husband Snared In SunEdison Stock Scandal
The Daily Bail ^ | 04-10-2019 / FR Posted on 4/10/2019, 10:02:56 PM by Kevin in California

House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi’s husband bought up to a quarter million dollars of stock in SunEdison, a now financially troubled green energy company just weeks before it announced a major 2014 acquisition that sent its stock price soaring. SunE's 2014 purchase of wind energy company First Wind “further bolstered the reputation of the company,” wrote one market-watcher at the time. “Perhaps unsurprisingly, SunEdison’s stock soared 29% on news of this acquisition alone.”

Pelosi has a well-earned reputation for shady stock purchases herself, getting shares in lucrative IPOs and
trading on inside information gleaned through Congressional meetings. Martha Stewart jailed 5 months for similar insider trading.

-------------------------------------------------

CIRCA 2014--PELOSI’S HUSBAND SNARED IN INSIDER STOCK DEAL

Paul Pelosi Invested in SunEdison Weeks Before First Wind Purchase
WASHINGTON-- House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi’s husband bought up to a quarter million dollars of stock in SunEdison, a now financially troubled green energy company just weeks before it announced a major 2014 acquisition that sent its stock price soaring. SunE's 2014 purchase of wind energy company First Wind “further bolstered the reputation of the company,” wrote one market-watcher at the time. “Perhaps unsurprisingly, SunEdison’s stock soared 29% on news of this acquisition alone.”

Pelosi’s husband, Paul Pelosi, had invested just in time. He bought between $100,000 and $250,000 in SunEdison stock on Oct. 24, 2014, according to congressional financial disclosures. The company announced its First Wind acquisition on Nov. 17.

Pelosi has previously been accused of trading stock based on information gleaned through her official duties. A law passed in the wake of that controversy prohibits members of Congress from using nonpublic information for personal gain. Language in that measure was informally dubbed the 'Pelosi Provision.' Pelosi’s office did not respond to questions about the timing of the purchase and whether she or her husband had any advance knowledge of the deal.

My first thought as well, however, I checked the wording of the Presidential Succession Act of 1947, and it assumes that both President and VP are incapacitated, thus making the Speaker second.

Quibbling, I suppose, but the “journalist” can’t really be faulted on this one.

n Act To provide for the performance of the duties of the office of President in case of the removal, resignation, death, or inability both of the President and Vice President.

No. The House Speaker IS second in line. The VP is first in line.

OK folks, here’s what the site: POLITIFACT says about Paul Pelosi Jr.

Please try to debunk this if you believe that it is false.

SEE: https://www.politifact.com/facebook-fact-checks/statements/2019/oct/10/facebook-posts/pelosi-romney-and-kerry-dont-have-sons-working-com/

(EXCERPT)

Claims about Pelosi’s son are misleading

Paul Pelosi Jr. once served on the board of an American energy company, Viscoil, that dissolved and re-formed in Singapore under a different name. But Paul Pelosi had no part in the new entity, and it’s unclear to what extent the company has done business in Ukraine.

Reports of the connection appeared in One America News Network and other conservative outlets, the source of which appears to be an Oct. 3 tweet from Patrick Howley, a writer for The Epoch Times. The pro-Donald Trump website has been known to publish conspiratorial content.

“BOOM: Nancy Pelosi’s son Paul Pelosi Jr. (who went to Ukraine in 2017) was a board member of Viscoil and executive at its related company NRGLab, which DID ENERGY Business in UKRAINE!” Howley said in the tweet, which has been retweeted more than 12,000 times. “And Nancy Pelosi appeared in a promotional video for the company!”

As evidence, Howley linked to two YouTube videos published March 5, 2013. The first shows Paul Pelosi speaking at an event in Washington.

The video opens with clips of a speech from Nancy Pelosi and then shows Paul at an XPRIZE Foundation competition in September 2010. The nonprofit group organizes public competitions with businesses to encourage their technological development.

“My name’s Paul Pelosi, of course I’m on the board of Viscoil, and Viscoil’s here today to talk about accelerating the future,” he says during the video.

Viscoil was a California-based holding company that dissolved in 2010. An old version of the company’s website said the company was created to “engage in research and in the commercial development of hydrocarbon production methods and technologies.”

After it shuttered, Viscoil was folded into NRGLab, a Singapore-based company “specializing in different areas of scientific research.” It appears to have published the YouTube videos.

The second video Howley posted shows Walter Afanasieff, a Brazilian-American musician, talking about how technology could improve oil extraction. The caption lists other artists that had promoted Viscoil’s work, including Mika Newton, a Ukrainian singer and actress.

“Mika Newton helped to secure the rights to build a plant for the production of SH-boxes in Ukraine,” the caption reads. An SH-box is a kind of environmentally friendly generator, according to NRGLab.

We found a Facebook page on which Newton has promoted NRGLab’s work, but we could find no news coverage about the company’s dealings in Ukraine. NRGLab does not mention the country on its website. We reached out to the company for more information but did not get a response.

To sum it up: Paul Pelosi served on the board of Viscoil. At one point, a Ukrainian singer is alleged to have promoted the company. But Pelosi was off the board before that happened. That’s the connection people have identified.

Drew Hammill, a spokesman for Nancy Pelosi, told PolitiFact that Paul Pelosi worked for Viscoil for a short time. He denied that it had any dealings in Ukraine at the time.

“The company was based in Southern California and focused solely on U.S. business,” he said in an email. “The company later reorganized under a different name, but Paul Pelosi Jr. played no role in the new entity.”

Interesting that all these sons and daughters of politicians, have political/economic ties to Ukraine.

The UN recognizes 241 nations.
And all these people have questionable lucrative deals in just one...
