Democrats, their advocacy groups, like ProPublica, and their media outlets, like the New York Times, have launched a dishonest campaign accusing conservative Supreme Court justices of being unethical.
These attacks are coming from some of the most corrupt and unethical figures and organizations in the country like ProPublica, created by the Sandler family whose greedy actions helped cause the previous recession led them to being profiled on Saturday Night Live as people who should be shot, not to mention a former Enron executive and FTX’s Sam Bankman-Fried.
Now former Speaker Nancy Pelosi ducked out of her glass house to throw some pebbles.
Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Sunday that it was “shameful” that Supreme Court Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas are so “cavalier” about ethics.
Speaking of cavaliers...
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi found herself in the center of a firestorm following one of her husband’s most recent stock purchases, but his stock purchases have caught the media’s attention and come under scrutiny for quite some time.
Pelosi’s latest headache ignited after her husband Paul, who owns a San Francisco investment and consulting firm, bought more than $1 million in Nvidia, a computer chip company, just weeks before a congressional vote that would provide massive subsidies to the industry.
During summer 2021, Paul cashed in on big tech shortly before the House Judiciary Committee voted to curtail the “unregulated power” of companies like Google and Amazon, Fortune reported. The move, however, wasn’t considered a threat to the companies, and the tech firms’ stock prices continued to rise.
Paul, meanwhile, had purchased 4,000 shares of Alphabet, Google’s parent company, by exercising call options a week before the vote. The call options – which give investors the right to buy shares of a company at a specific price – allowed him to snag the shares of Alphabet at $1,200 a piece as they closed that day at just over $2,500, according to Fortune. Paul earned $5.3 million on the investment at the time.
A few months before the Alphabet purchase, Paul picked up millions of dollars worth of Microsoft stock just days before the company announced a lucrative government contract.
Paul exercised call options and paid $1.95 million to buy 15,000 shares of Microsoft at a strike price of $130 on March 19, Fox Business reported. That same day, Paul paid $1.4 million for 10,000 shares valued at $140.
Microsoft announced a government contract worth nearly $22 billion to supply U.S. Army combat troops with augmented reality headsets just twelve days after Paul’s purchase, and the company’s share prices increased from about $230 to roughly $255 – or close to 11% – in the weeks following the announcement.
Ethics are for little people. And conservative Supreme Court justices. And certainly not for top Dems.
Yeah, that was one of the main types of scams used to enrich California politicians, like knowing where future projects are going to be, and buying land there cheap before the info is public.
Don’t forget that when Sen. Feinstein was on the Senate military construction sub-committee her hubby was given $1.3 billion in DOD construction projects in Iraq and, later, out of all the real estate agents in the world, was made the agent for the sale of billions of dollars of U.S. Postal Service properties in major cities across the U.S. There’s more than one way to skin the taxpayers.
I never cared that Paul Pelosi is gay. If Paul and David want to do the “Rice-a-Roni, the San Francisco treat” while Nancy is in DC, that’s their business.
Pelosi and rest of the Federal Pad, dispise Trump the same way the NYPD dispised Serpico.
And for the same reason.
Scum like the Pelosi crime family are as unethical as they are brazen. I guess being unethical comes along with being criminals, and projecting their crimes onto their political enemies comes along with being a Dirtbagocrat. The Clinton and Biden crime families are the same way.
I never knew about the insider land purchases, though.
Pelosi’s father had the parking lot concession in Baltimore. So the crookedness is in the DNA.
Had Mafia connections, which has been mostly scrubbed from the internet.
If I had a hammer
I’d hammer in the morning
I’d hammer in the evening
All over this land
I’d hammer out danger
I’d hammer out a warning
I’d hammer out love between
My brothers and my sisters, ah-ah
All over this land
That left eye. It’s dead. She’s gotta be blind in that eye.
Seems Nasty Nanz has been feeding hubby with insider info since she was elected to the House. It would be interesting to see what their net worth has increased over the past 16 years.
Translating Stretchy, cavalier in the sense that actually follow ethical principles.
they actually follow
I don’t know why I read this. Maybe I expected to see something about Pelosi that I didn’t already know. She’s corrupt to the bone.
Good Grief, what would these people call Bernie Madoff, Ethical? They are upside down on everything!
Providing that the Democ-Rats oppose the Constitution and anyone who supports it seeing how they tried to use the notorious Anita Hill to try and ruin his selection with the usual lies like their doing with Trump and the New York Pravda(Times)covers up their misdeeds
I don’t think that Mrs. Pelosi, who has been wading through the left’s deep swamp for so long, doesn’t have a clue any more about the meaning of ‘ethics’. She is not even worthy to untie the laces of Justice Thomas’ shoes.
The Clinton, Biden and Pelosi families are ones that prey together.
Nancy is obviously a fan of Saul Alinsky. Accuse others of the very same sin you, yourself have commited.
It’s very common for the crooks to call others unethical to deflect from their misdeeds. Pelosi should be in prison
If I were Paulie P, I’d STFU. There’s something called insider trading that the next SEC would love to dust off for him.
Where are the updates about Paul and his hammer time? After being front page news between an OUI with a young male escort and then the incident in his home with another young man, no follow-up? The manufactured stories stink to high heaven, speaking of unethical.
The evil Nancy Pelosi is as sleazy as they come. She’s been doing this “Wrap-Up Smear” technique for decades and only recently admitted it. She’s a dyed in the wool hypocrite and a lover of Satanic inversion, like the rest of the Democrats. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WzA-V_1lk40

Breitbart Business Digest: Nancy Pelosi Headed to Stock Trading Hall of Fame; FTX Gets the Clown Emoji
But the Breitbart Business Digest believes Pelosi’s career ought to be defined in a different way: She is the most infamous—and one of the most successful—stock traders of all time. Her personal wealth has soared to nine figures and beyond since the financial collapse of 2008. This is largely attributed to stock trades made by her husband, Paul; and those trades were often concentrated in businesses and industries propped up by Nancy’s political policies. As famously documented by Breitbart Senior Contributor Peter Schweizer, Nancy Pelosi’s stances shifted consistently as her family made money. Currently—and thanks in part to the Speaker herself—most, if not all, of this appears to be legal.
