Some luck. Not since Terry McAwful made $17,000,000 of a $100,000 have I heard of such a financially wise Democrat

Guaranteed there will be no FBI investigation of her, just as there wasn’t for Hunter Biden’s computer nor his aging father’s alleged receipt of bribes. Instead, they will focus on Rudy Guiliani trying to find information from the Ukrainian government about possible bribes to the Bidens, ropes that might look like a noose, a couple of old men whose homes are stormed pre-dawn by multiple agents with helicopters hovering overhead, and older ladies who might have been at the January 6th rally. Self-dealing in companies you regulate and promote like Granholm did?? Nah, no possible crime nor any FBI interest there.

Insider trading. That’s absurd. Hillary was an outsider. She knew nothing about the livestock markets.

You didn’t write your blog. You cut and pasted it from elsewhere. No need for you to post your spam as clickbait.

White House Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm has sold her stocks in an electric bus maker, which Joe Biden previously pushed.Granholm sold her holdings in Proterra Inc., netting $1.6 million, a spokesman confirmed.Granholm’s obligations under an ethics agreement are now fulfilled, the Energy Department said.Spokesman Kevin Liao said in an email:

“Secretary Granholm has acted in full accordance with the comprehensive ethical standards set by the Biden administration and has completed her divestment well ahead of the time required by her ethics agreement,” spokesman Kevin Liao said in an email.Republicans blasted Granholm’s holdings in the company, noting Biden was pushing it. Granholm’s obligations under an ethics agreement are now fulfilled, the Energy Department said.

Biden faced more backlash following his virtual visit to a Proterra manufacturing facility in South Carolina to highlight electric vehicle makers.Top Republican on the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, Wyoming Sen. John Barrasso, urged the Energy Department’s inspector general to probe whether Granholm’s ownership in the company was a conflict of interest.TRENDING: Rachel Maddow 2020 Election Audits a Runaway Train Unless Biden DOJ IntervenesRepublican Rep. Ralph Norman of South Carolina also pressed for details on her relationship to Proterra.During Granholm’s confirmation hearing, she pledged to recuse herself from any matters with “a direct and predictable effect on the financial interests of Proterra” until she completed the sale.

Granholm said Americans would not be affected by the shutdown of the Colonial Pipeline if they were driving an electric car

Granholm claimed she had nothing to do with the planning of Biden’s online visit.Barrasso said Thursday that Granholm “actively promoted electric vehicles and electric vehicle batteries” even as she owned stock in a prominent electric vehicle maker.“Her actions appear to be a significant conflict of interest,” Barrasso said.Granholm faced backlash earlier this month for claiming Americans would not be affected by the shutdown of the Colonial Pipeline if they were driving an electric car.’We obviously are ‘all in’ on making sure that we meet the President’s goals of getting to 100 percent clean electricity by 2035 and net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.”“And, you know, if you drive an electric car, this would not be affecting you, clearly. “

“She knew nothing about the livestock markets.”

Isn’t THAT where Bill found her?
