So has anyone asked Pelosi why she STILL won’t allow the workers at her hotel, restaurant, and vineyards to unionize?
Thank goodness the democrats are there to speak for the working folks.
“There comes a point when you make too much money...” s/
BTW as everyone in the Bay Area knows these figures grossly understate the income of these three “ladies”.
The Unions certainly will not ask her. Nothing to see here, move along, move along!

LOL - $17,000 from the sales of her book. I wonder how many of her relatives and friends that $17K accounts for?
“Boxer’s book sales income”
That has to be a joke. Bwahahahahahaha, snort, snort, hehehehehehe, snicker, snicker, hahahaha.
Bounce check Boxer wrote a bad check for 100,000 back in 1991 during the Congress baking scandal and now she is worth millions ?????
Gee I wonder how that happened ??????
Boxer was among the top 24 involved in the House bank scandal. On March 1, 1992 the Sacramento Bee quoted Boxer as admitting she didn’t pay enough attention to her House bank account. More specifically, that meant 143 bad checks totaling $41,417 over a three-year period that she had written on the House bank.
In response, she issued a statement saying “in painful retrospect, I clearly should have paid more attention to my account” and wrote a $15 check to the Deficit Reduction Fund for each of her 87 overdrafts.
.....The Witches of Eastwick.......wasn’t this a movie with Jack Nicholson ???
House Bank Scandal Flashback .. Oh Yeah!!!

I ain’t pulling for Boxer, no way, and ain’t a Carly fan but Carly would qualify as an improvement over Babs in more ways than not.. now I need to go take a shower and damn the continued imposition of mandatory water saving here in Santa Clara Valley..
