They and designated family members should be required to only hold federal bonds and their personal residences as investments.

Pelosi and her husband own tuna processing facilities in America Samoa that are exempt from U.S. minimum wage laws, OSHA and EPA laws, etc.

Just for kicks I searched for tuna canning on American Samoa with Google Maps. The big Starkist facility towards the NE end of town doesn't look like the kind of place paying everyone $15/hr or more. From street view it was kind of funny - there's a big sign at the gate stating everyone needs valid photo ID to enter. Kind of flies in the face of the 'rats position that voter ID is racist and too hard to obtain...

She bought options when Covid hit and when the vaccine was about to be released.

“trading on inside information”

She’s basically buying options on the stock on leading tech companies.

For February 2020, that would be a lower risk option.

For December 2020, she knew the $2 trillion federal spending package would have a stock market impact, as was its purpose.

Do you really think Nancy cares about ghetto dwellers? Nancy cares about rich people such as herself.

Nancy wrote the legislation to keep the minimum wage in AMERICAN Somoa lower than every other territory and state in the USA. Directly benefiting her husbands company.
Now, imagine if Trump, or any of Trumps family members had even a small interest in something similar. THE MSM would be all over that story.

She and her cohorts in the house and senate have made millions off of policy decisions they knew in advance. All of them should be charged with insider trading violations, especially Speaker Pelousy.

I can’t.

“Nancy D’Alesandro met Paul Francis Pelosi while she was attending college. They married in Baltimore at the Cathedral of Mary Our Queen on September 7, 1963. They moved to New York after they wed, then moved to San Francisco in 1969, where Paul’s brother Ronald Pelosi was a member of the City and County of San Francisco’s Board of Supervisors.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nancy_Pelosi

In 1969, I suspect San Francisco real estate was quite affordable.

Pelosi has long said she has no involvement in or prior knowledge of her husband’s trading decisions.

Oh of course not. And I'm sure he and Nancy never discuss any pending legislation or other government actions that could effect the values of her husband's holdings and business in general.

YEAH RIGHT!

Or if Pelosi could twist the arm of someone at the FDA. Anyone that bought into Pfizer stock in early Dec 2020, right before the EUA gave it a big bump... Or again in early August 2021, right before Corminaty was approved, another big bump. Just knowing which way the FDA was leaning, you could make double-digit percent profit in a matter of a couple of weeks.

The product of abortion logic.

Why are there any laws?

Just let the individual with biggest stick set the rules.
