The author is clearly not familiar with the English language -- or maybe it's an auto translation of some sort.

Watch Paul Pelosi speak, he is clearly inexperienced and inarticulate and sounds pretty stupid when he talks about business.

I understand that the Ukrainian company magically got some nice concessions in his mommy’s district somehow.

Nancy Pelosi’s Son Paul Pelosi Jr. Was Given Lucrative $180,000 a Year Position on InfoUSA Weeks After His Mother Became Speaker — Despite having No Experience!

Did Pelosi Jr. declare this nice income on his federal and state taxes income?

Did HumpherBiden declare his massive monthly income from the Ukraine on his federal and state Income Taxes?

Don’t question Nancy Satan about it.

“she’ll cut your head off and you won’t even know you are bleeding” according to her joyful spawn and the enmeshed propagandists.

The children of prominent Democrat politicians have it made. They don’t have to work at all, or very little to be millionaires. Just ask Hunter Biden!

This source may or may not be reliable, though it does cite to NewsMax

I have a rule that I follow: If I cannot find something proclaiming to be "news" in more than one source and in a source I recognize as reliable, I treat it as fake news.

I've never heard of the source quoted in the original post and I was unable to find similar information elsewhere in a source that I recognize as reliable.

So as far as I'm concerned, the original post is fake news, even with it citing Newsmax for part of its claim.

That's how I treat it, YMMV.

I think you’d have more trouble finding a prominent Democrat (or family member of one) who did NOT have a sweetheart deal of that sort than one who did.

My favorite is Rahm Emanuel - from Wikipedia: “After serving as an advisor to Bill Clinton, in 1998 Emanuel resigned from his position in the Clinton administration and joined the investment banking firm Wasserstein Perella, where he worked for 2 1/2 years. Although he did not have an MBA degree or prior banking experience, he became a managing director at the firm’s Chicago office in 1999, and according to Congressional disclosures, made $16.2 million in his 2 years as a banker.”

In close second is Michelle Obama’s “job” at the University of Chicago while he was still in Illinois. Of course they’ve moved on to bigger and better sources of free money since.

That particular Augean Stable (political pay-offs funneled through sweetheart deals disguised as jobs or positions on commissions) will likely be beyond the abilities of even an orange-haired Hercules to clean up.

Only $180,000 a year? The Pelosis are a bunch of amateurs. It’s almost embarrassing.

NBC hired Chelsea Clinton as a “special correspondent” back in November of 2011. She was paid a salary of $600,000 per year. Now that’s how you do it.

Big deal! Obama was given the Presidency with essentially no relevant experience.

Pelosi worked for Countrywide? That in itself should prompt all sorts of media organizations to investigate the Pelosi family.

“The source” does not even write proper/common English, and may be a poor translation of some original source.

It may all be true, but because of the manner of the text, and without independent verification, I mark the “source” suspect, whether or not the facts are.
