Pelosi Vehemently Denies Insider Trading, Says Her Husband Takes Care Of All That

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a heated exchange with CNN's Jake Tapper, Representative Nancy Pelosi adamantly denied engaging in insider trading, stating that her husband Paul takes care of that.

Pelosi has long been dogged by allegations of using insider trading to amass her fortune, but Pelosi assured the nation that she has never participated in any such criminal activity and instead has her husband do it.

"I have never once traded stocks using information gained through my Congressional seat, and find such accusations ludicrous and abhorrent," said a fiery Pelosi. "My husband does is the one who takes care of all that. I merely tell him which stocks to buy and sell, and exactly when to do so. I am disgusted that anyone would accuse me of such impropriety."

The questioning came on the heels of members of Congress introducing legislation that would ban all Senators and Representatives from trading stocks. Pelosi stunned pundits by coming out in favor of the legislation, stating that it wouldn't affect her whatsoever since her husband Paul does all the illegal stuff.

At publishing time, Pelosi had again maintained in a MSNBC interview that she was innocent of insider trading, but added that she would strongly recommend selling stock in Caterpillar right now.

We know his decisions are not the result of pillow talk since her husband sleeps with men.

So-o-o-o, is she in favor of preventing Congressturds from investing in stocks or not?

If so, why? If not, why not?

Why even obfuscate? Apparently it’s not Illegal for her to do what she’s denying she did.

Understandable.
The reality of what’s going on in the world has made it extremely difficult to write satire that doesn’t seem perfectly reasonable to assume that it is true.

I doubt if her husband has “taken care” of business for decades.
He was too busy hooking up with some Canadian illegal guy the other day.
Chuckle.

Thats not a denial. Thats not an answer to whether they are doing insider trading. That is appearing to answer but actually dodging the question.

Because so what who takes care of it. She could tell him what to do.

An “accessory after the fact” is a legal term describing someone who helps a person who has already committed a crime, with the knowledge that the crime was committed, and with the intention of helping the criminal escape arrest or punishment.

An “accessory after the fact” is a legal term describing someone who helps a person who has already committed a crime, with the knowledge that the crime was committed, and with the intention of helping the criminal escape arrest or punishment. This is distinct from conspiracy, where the assistance is provided before or during the crime’s commission.
