I don’t really care about your opinion.

Wouldn’t Trump benefit from capital-gains tax-breaks for forced sale of assets? If so, this might save Trump a bundle. That would be irony. Does anyone know what the rules are?

How much is Pelosi worth, and has she divested from what she owns?

She added a rider to a Fed minimum wage bill several yrs ago made an exception for workers on American Samoa.
Her husband owns a lot of Starkist stock.

Facts: Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's home district includes San Francisco.

Star-Kist Tuna's headquarters are in San Francisco, Pelosi's home district.

Star-Kist is owned by Del Monte Foods and is a major contributor to Pelosi.

Star-Kist is the major employer in American Samoa employing 75% of the Samoan workforce.

Paul Pelosi, Nancy's husband, owns $17 million dollars of Star-Kist stock.

In January, 2007 when the minimum wage was increased from $5.15 to $7.25, Pelosi had American Samoa exempted from the increase so Del Monte would not have to pay the higher wage.
This would make Del Monte products less expensive than their competition's.

Last week when the huge bailout bill was passed, Pelosi added an earmark to the final bill adding $33 million dollars for an 'economic development credit in American Samoa'.

Pelosi has called the Bush Administration 'corrupt'.

She should know.

If it is not law now, I think it would be illegal to make retroactive laws.

Blind trust run by family should be enough.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts needs to divest of her fake Indian heritage....

How about a DNA test there Lizzy? Cost about $125 don't they?

As these politicians get further away from reality, it makes me appreciate the honesty, integrity and sincerity of professional wrestling even more. When is Joe Isuzu going to run for office?

[pieceofthepuzzle]

Pelosi is the social butterfly who is an activist member of the country club, organizing private auctions for ‘charity’ because she's such a ‘social justice warrior’, but who also wants to maintain the exclusivity of the country club and not let the ‘riffraff’ in.

Skank will soon learn that PEOTUS Trump is several steps ahead of her.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

That’s envy.
It’s what drives Liberals wild.

Pray tell if Warren has divested, or is she still making a killing from insider trading like the rest of the pack of Congress Critters she runs with?

My bet is she holds stock, a freaking ton of it.

Excellent post

What’s with the nastiness? Get up on the wrong side of the bed?
