Biden Blames Republicans for Violent Attack on Nancy Pelosi’s Husband

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden (D) blamed Republicans on Friday night for a man who attacked House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D) husband during the early morning hours on Friday. . .

Addressing a crowd on the campaign trail in Pennsylvania, Biden called the attack “despicable,” saying there is “no place in America” for it.

“There’s too much violence, political violence, too much hatred, too much vitriol,” Biden said. “And what makes us think that one party can talk about stolen elections, COVID being a hoax, that it’s all a bunch of lies, and it not affect people who may not be so well balanced.”

“What makes us think that it’s not going to corrode the political climate?” he continued. “Enough is enough is enough. Every person of good conscience needs to clearly and unambiguously stand up against violence in our politics, no matter what your politics are.”

Heavy.com, a fact-finding website, highlighted a tweet from a Mission Local journalist Joe Eskenazi that stated: “My sources also name the suspect in this morning’s hammer attack on Paul Pelosi as David DePape, born 1980, of Berkeley. He would appear to be a former Castro nudist protester. Things appear set to be bizarre for a while.” (Read more from “Biden Blames Republicans for Violent Attack on Nancy Pelosi’s Husband” HERE)

WATCH: Pelosi’s Bizarre Answer on Why Republicans Have Regained Momentum Ahead of Midterms

/0 Comments/in , , /by

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) gave an awkward answer during an interview Sunday when asked why voters trust Republicans more than Democrats ahead of this year’s midterm elections.

“I don’t subscribe to what you said that they don’t trust us,” Pelosi said. “The fact is, is that in the last few weeks, the Republicans, recognizing now that they have a problem in this election, and you all have been telling them they’re gonna win for like a year and a half, but they’re seeing what’s happening on the ground.”

Pelosi then claimed that Republicans had turned things around because they have “unlimited money” and “unlimited fact.”

Nancy Pelosi Melts Down Over Latest Polling

/0 Comments/in , , /by

During an interview with MSNBC Tuesday afternoon, Speaker Nancy Pelosi shot back at host Andrea Mitchell after she was presented with polling from the New York Times showing Republicans are on track to take the House majority in November.

“The New York Times poll I think is an outlier poll, you cite one poll, but all the other polls…” Pelosi said.

“It’s also the RealClearPolitics average,” Mitchell pushed back.

Pelosi’s response comes shortly after she claimed that not only are Democrats in good shape ahead of the 2022 midterm elections, but that she was confident her party will increase their majority.

Nancy Pelosi Refuses to Answer if She’ll Support a 2024 Biden Run (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

When asked on Thursday whether President Joe Biden should run for reelection or if Democrats should advance another candidate, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi did not provide an answer to the question.

Pelosi said that Biden performed a “great service” for the nation, noting that he beat former President Donald Trump. But the lawmaker said that she would not get into politics regarding whether Biden should run in 2024. . .

But in a recent interview on “60 Minutes,” Biden said that if he announced a reelection bid, election law-related matters would arise. He said that it is “too early” for making such a decision. The president said that he intends to seek reelection, but he noted that is “just an intention.”

A CBS News/YouGov survey of adults in the U.S. found that 73% believe there should be maximum age limits for elected figures — the poll found that this sentiment is shared by a majority of people across the political spectrum.

A USA Today/Ipsos poll of adults in the U.S. found that 56% of Democratic voters do not think that Biden should seek another term.

Americans have been facing roaring inflation, an issue which, if it persists, could make a reelection bid more difficult for Biden to mount successfully. (Read more from “Nancy Pelosi Refuses to Answer if She’ll Support a 2024 Biden Run” HERE)

Convenient Timing: Paul Pelosi Sold Computer Chip Stock in Time to Avoid Heavy Losses

/0 Comments/in , /by

Paul Pelosi, the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), cut his losses in software company Nvidia before the United States placed new restrictions on computer chip sales to China and Russia.

As noted by an analysis from MoneyWise, Pelosi sold 25,000 shares of Nvidia on July 26 at an average price of $165.05 — causing a loss of $341,365, according to a set of disclosures. One month later, Nvidia revealed that the federal government imposed export restrictions on the company’s A100 and forthcoming H100 circuits. The new regulations will “address the risk that the covered products may be used in, or diverted to, a ‘military end use’ or ‘military end user’ in China and Russia,” Nvidia said in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Shares in Nvidia fell 7.7% on the news and a total of 16% since Pelosi sold shares on July 26. Pelosi — who was arrested after alleged drunk driving earlier this year — formerly exercised 200 call options on their expiration date of June 17 at a strike price of $100, according to more federal filings.

Drew Hammill, a spokesman for Speaker Pelosi, said in a statement to Fox News that the lawmaker had no knowledge of her husband’s transactions. (Read more from “Convenient Timing: Paul Pelosi Sold Computer Chip Stock in Time to Avoid Heavy Losses” HERE)

Catholic Nancy Pelosi Declares It Is ‘Sinful’ to Restrict Abortion

/0 Comments/in , /by

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi asserted last week that restricting abortion is “sinful,” another clear indication she has broken from the teachings of the Catholic church.

Speaking at a “reproductive health roundtable discussion” on Aug. 26, Pelosi claimed that restricting abortion rights is a “sinful” assault on women.

“The fact that this is such an assault on women of color and women — lower income families is just sinful. It’s sinful,” Pelosi said.

“It‘s wrong that they would be able to say to women what they think women should be doing with their lives and their bodies,” she added. “But it’s sinful, the injustice of it all.”

Earlier in the event, Pelosi said that “extreme MAGA Republicans” have been “emboldened by the radical Supreme Court.” She accused such people of “inflicting unimaginable pain on women and their families.” Pelosi even claimed that “American women are not as free as their mothers and their grandmothers were.” (Read more from “Catholic Nancy Pelosi Declares It Is ‘Sinful’ to Restrict Abortion” HERE)

China Mocks ‘Selfish Child’ Pelosi Over China Praise Gaffe (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

China’s state-run Global Times on Wednesday pounced on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) mistakenly stating “China is one of the freest societies in the world” when she meant to say Taiwan.

There was some black comedy to be found in the communist newspaper’s high dudgeon that anyone would dare insult China as being “free.”

Pelosi delivered the gaffe during an interview with NBC’s Today show on Tuesday. Chinese propagandists were hardly the only ones to notice Pelosi defending her trip to Taiwan as “only about saying China is one of the freest societies in the world.”

“Don’t take it from me, that’s from Freedom House,” she added.

Freedom House, of course, would never dream of characterizing Communist China as one of the freest societies in the world. China’s current ranking from the human rights organization stands at 9 points out of 100, a certified “Not Free” rating that positions China as one of the worst tyrannies on Earth. China managed the neat trick of having a negative score for political rights, which is hard to get without dropping barrel bombs and chemical weapons on citizens who vote the wrong way.

Did Nancy Pelosi Travel to Taiwan to Increase Her Family Fortune? Was Her Son Paul With Her?

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The two photographs below originated from a source in Taiwan. The circled man in the photo on the left is the same man labeled as Paul Pelosi Jr., Nancy Pelosi’s son, in the photograph on the right. That man is clearly part of Nancy Pelosi’s inner entourage, but, strangely, he does not appear in any other photographs circulating on the internet.

The photographs of the man labeled as Paul Pelosi, Jr. above have a similar tie worn by Paul Pelosi, Jr., as shown in the 2017 photograph taken in Ukraine below.

Additional pictures were uncovered of Pelosi’s travels in Asia, and one picture reportedly from Singapore looks like that is her son traveling with her.

Here’s another photo in Malaysia:

If Paul Pelosi Jr. did accompany his mother on her August 2-3, 2022 trip to Taiwan, is he playing the same role for Nancy Pelosi as Hunter Biden played for Joe Biden, enriching the family through influence peddling?

Like Hunter Biden, Paul Pelosi Jr. has been linked to many shady business dealings but has never been prosecuted.

Paul Pelosi also was involved in Ukraine (and therefore so was his mother).

In addition, an enormous amount of money has flowed from Taiwanese government agencies to Democrat Dick Gephardt’s lobbying firm to specifically influence Nancy Pelosi.

So, the question is, what was the true purpose of Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan that has risked war with China?

My guess is that it is about computer chips and the family fortune, not diplomacy.

China Retaliates Against United States Over Pelosi’s Visit to Taiwan

/0 Comments/in , /by

China has suspended all planned discussions with the U.S. on key international issues as retaliation against the U.S. congressional delegation’s visit to Taiwan.

Beijing on Friday made the announcement that the Chinese Communist Party was canceling all discussions of climate change, drug networks and military action.

China attributed the decision to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s congressional delegation and their trip to the island of Taiwan.

“The cancellation also sent a clear signal to the U.S. that the Chinese side will never accept the U.S. blatantly damaging China-U.S. relations without bearing any consequences,” said U.S. studies scholar Lü Xiang from the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken spoke to reporters Thursday about the recent congressional delegation to Taiwan, trying to smooth over the visit. (Read more from “China Retaliates Against United States Over Pelosi’s Visit to Taiwan” HERE)

If Nancy Pelosi Cared About Confronting China She’d Do More Than Stage Political Theater

/0 Comments/in , /by

The ebb and flow of the corporate news cycle almost always distorts and distracts rather than informs or enlightens. So it was this week with the coverage of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s trip to Taiwan, which produced the intended effect of eliciting lazy puff pieces lauding her “three-decade career of challenging the Chinese government on human rights and other issues,” as the New York Times’ Carl Hulse dutifully put it.

But make no mistake: Pelosi did not go to Taiwan to stand up to China. She went for her own purposes, to shore up a narrative about her legacy as a tough American political leader who has always stood up to autocracies like communist China in defense of democracy. Remember that time she unfurled the banner in Tiananmen Square and the police yelled at her? Of course you do. Hulse and his colleagues have made sure of it.

In reality, the Taiwan trip was pure political propaganda, lapped up and regurgitated by a sycophantic press unwilling to admit the obvious fact that Pelosi, like every other establishment figure in Washington, has never been serious about standing up to China.

Indeed, Pelosi’s long political career, much like President Joe Biden’s and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s, maps almost perfectly onto China’s steady economic and military rise, especially over the past two decades. Apart from occasionally staging a little political theater, Pelosi and her fellow Democrat leaders have done nothing to slow or even impede that rise — quite the opposite, in fact.

Consider just some recent examples. During the thick of the Covid-19 pandemic, in the fall of 2020, Pelosi blocked a bipartisan House bill that would have curtailed the influence of Chinese-government-funded Confucius Institutes at universities across the country. Around the same time, her House Democrats denounced a bill that would have called out Beijing for spreading the conspiracy theory that Covid originated in a U.S. military lab, absurdly calling the bill racist and xenophobic.
