Things that make you go Hmmmm.

Gee, it's so hard to believe Nancy Pelosi and her family are involved in shady dealings. I'm sure the investigative press will get right on that hot story.

Seriously? Geez.

The blatant corruption with these politicians must end. Perhaps the biggest reason to have TERM LIMITS is to minimize the time these thieves are in office to line their pockets with gold.

I am not so sure that would not result in them redoubling their efforts.

Nancy Pelosi defends bringing son on Taiwan trip after husband's DUI charge
Lawyer for Pelosi's husband appeared in court to plead not guilty on his behalf to DUI charges during her Taiwan trip
By Haris Alic | Fox News
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., defended on Wednesday bringing her son on a recent congressional junket to Taiwan and other Asian countries.
The speaker was asked by reporters at a Capitol Hill press conference about the presence of her son, Paul Pelosi Jr., on the trip.
"His role was to be my escort," she said. "Usually, we [invite] spouses, not all could come, but I was proud he was there."
The speaker stressed that her son had no business dealings during the trip, which spanned several Asian nations, including Japan and South Korea.
Her husband, Paul Pelosi Sr., did not attend the trip. Instead, the 82-year-old California businessman's lawyer appeared in a Napa County Superior Court last week to plead not guilty on his behalf to charges of driving under the influence.
In late May, a Porsche allegedly driven by the speaker's husband sustained "major collision damage" during a late-night crash in Napa County. Police officers claim to have found Paul Pelosi Sr. in the driver's seat of his damaged car.
He faces two misdemeanor charges: DUI causing injury and driving with a blood alcohol level of .08% causing injury.
The date on which Paul Pelosi Sr.'s lawyer appeared in court to plead not guilty coincided roughly with the end of the speaker's visit to Taiwan. It is unclear if that is why the speaker's husband did not accompany her on the trip.
A request for comment was not immediately returned by the speaker's office.
Republicans have criticized the trip, telling Fox News Digital last week at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Texas that it only served to heighten tensions between the U.S. and China.

"not guilty"? :silly: :silly: :silly: :silly: :silly:
Any competent BAC expert could do the regression, and even with the story changing to say the delay was two hours and not four, that still puts his BAC at .12, which is time and a half on legally drunk.
Q.E.D.

Did the Mad Queen of Hearts reimburse the American people for her sons travel? If not why are we paying for a millionaires adult child's travel and accommodations? Why isn't her son paying his own travel on commercial airline and his own accommodations? Exactly what did his attendance benefit the congress?
-
WTF!
1.) Pelosi had no official business visiting Taiwan.
2.) Pelosi had no official business inviting a family member along.
3.) The American taxpayer has no business having to pay for Congressmens' family vacations or business trips.

I understand her "fall back" reply if the first lie didn't work was "Have you seen what babysitters charge these days?"
