And yet there are a lot of rubes in this country — who vote — who think that she’s for the little guy. The whole system is corrupt to the core. If Jefferson were alive today, he’d say its time for a little revolution.

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

Nancy, she lay low.

...

Are members of Congress still exempt from insider trading laws?

She lives on a $20m dollar Napa winery:

Tennis court, Bocci ball court, helipad.

Her winery has ZERO union employees.

Well great. Looks like Pelosi and her husband have put their money where there mouth is.

I wonder how much they stand to lose with this clean energy BS?

Unfortunately for the US, we already know we have lost BILLIONS of dollars thanks to Obama’s throwing that much away in Solyndra type scams and scandals.

Must have been tutored by Cankles herself /s

Yep, people are always ‘surprised’; regardless that those in govt will stuff their, and buddies, pockets using the taxpayer: railroads up to the highway system, canals, mining, war, etc.

The *only* thing I’m impressed about it wasn’t SHE doing the insider-trading; just another ‘exemption’ of the elite vs. the masses

Nancy Pelosi is the biggest shareholder in Napa's "Auberge de Soleil", one of the top 10 inns in the USA:

They, too, hire ZERO union employees.

A champion of the poor, a burger and fries at her place costs $23.

Would that be ‘insider trading’ and wouldn’t that be illegal or is it ok because she’s a part of government and doesn’t answer to anyone?

As far back as when I was in high school I used to pay attention to the net worth of many members in congress. It always grew year after year. I always wondered how they made so much cash. They were crooked then.

Nancy Pelosi spent millions buying her way to the Speaker of the House job.

She expects to get a very healthy return on her investment.

The SunEdison insider trading deal is chump change compared to rest of the money Pelosi has grafted to her husbands business interests over the years.

However, as is typical of Democrats , there is no amount of money to small to steal.

Nancy Pelosi and her husband are pikers when compared to Dianne Fineswine and her husband. You can call it San Francisco values. Laws are for us little people.

Not to get too off topic, but Diane Feinstein has a similar problem, very similar.

Her husband’s company, CBRE, was selected in March 2011 as the sole real estate agent on sales expected to fetch $19 billion. Most voters didn’t notice that Blum is a member of CBRE’s board and served as chairman from 2001 to 2014.

Her husband is Richard Blum, has made billions off government contracts. In 2011 the post office decided to sell a few historic buildings. The buyers were found they just needed someone to do the paperwork. He got the contract and charged commisions in excess of 900 million. Richard Blum and his personal company(which includes DiFi) are the majority stockholders in Comcast.

Now, in 2015, the Postal Service has decided to sell 56 more buildings and Blum was selected to do the deal, again. He should make another Billion or more.

I wonder what Feinstein and Pelosi have to give in return? Probably one of those things is to fight for gun control.

Dianne Feistein and her husband are also majority owners of Comcast.

They are multi-billionaires, all off govt contracts.

They’re not ALL as lucky as Clintons $100,000 cattle futures profit from $1,000

Some do it by pure theft

I bet the people who sold it are pissed

Actually last I heard members of Congress can trade on inside information, it’s one of the ways they get very rich. A lot of times they get stock options, remember Bob Dole and Viagra?

Pelosi’s Husband Invested in Solar Firm Weeks Before Lucrative Expansion

What? Having his own Samoan factory plantation with serfs at half minimum wage ain't enough for him?
