who had the worst week, Joe Biden or Prince Andrew?
Too funny. That’s a tough choice.
At least Brandon won’t remember his bad week.
What’s Going On With Nancy Pelosi’s Son?
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s son, Paul Pelosi Jr., has been called out by the Daily Mail over his close ties to “a host of fraudsters, rule-breakers and convicted criminals,” yet has never been charged himself
Once dubbed the ‘rising prince’ of the Pelosi political dynasty by the now-defunct Men’s Vogue, Pelosi Jr. had “years-long repeated business dealings” with unsavory characters, in what may have been efforts to curry favor with the Democrat’s powerful family.
Via the Daily Mail, Pelosi Jr.’s links to alleged lawbreakers include:
The 52-year-old joined the board of a biofuel company after it defrauded investors according to an SEC ruling, and whose CEO was convicted after bribing Georgia officials
Pelosi Jr. was president of an environmental investment firm that turned out to be a front for two convicted fraudsters
He joined a lithium mining company and received millions of shares, allegedly issued as part of a massive $164 million fraud
He was vice president of a company previously embroiled in an investigation of scam calls that targeted senior citizens
He has close business ties with a man accused by the Department of Justice of running a fake UN charity that stole investors’ money
A medical company Pelosi Jr. worked for tested drugs on people without FDA authorization, according to an FDA investigation
According to the report, “sources close to the Democrat power broker’s son – and even Pelosi Jr. himself – admit that some of his business dealings may have arisen from savvy entrepreneurs hiring him in an attempt to curry favor with his powerful family.”
For starters, Paul Pelosi landed a $180,000 per year job as Senior Vice President at data company InfoUSA - while he was also a full-time loan officer at Countrywide Home Loans in San Mateo and had zero experience in database marketing. According to investigators, between 2001 and 2004, before Pelosi Jr. joined the company, InfoUSA knowingly sold fraudsters the data of millions of Americans - which was then used to scam elderly people out of their life savings.
According to a 2007 New York Times report on the investigation, InfoUSA sold a list of 500,000 gamblers over age 55 called ‘Oldies but Goodies’, which described its members as ‘gullible’.
InfoUSA also sold lists of people with cancer or Alzheimer’s called ‘Suffering Seniors’, the Times reported. The data company denied their lists had such titles.
Iowa investigators found emails showing InfoUSA staff knew the firms they were selling to were being investigated for fraudulently targeting old people, but continued to sell the data regardless, the state’s AG said. -Daily Mail
