Ah yes, the woman who called people's who asked for a ceasefire in Gaza "Russian and Chinese trolls".
Does that impact her comment at all or were you just itching to talk about that again?
He's probably just saying "consider the source" in a roundabout way. I'd only take stock tips from Pelosi.
But the source is a person who has expertise being a major government figure for decades. You don't have to like her or agree with her but her stock trading has zero impact on whether or not she is right about Putin's financial influence over Trump.
Here's a guy that thinks career politicians can be honest. These people are a fucking disease that can only be cured with term limits.
Do you trust Pelosi moreso than Hillary Clinton?

It's hard to tell what's real these days -- all I see in the article is Pelosi talking out of her ass with no proof
(I'm not a fan of Trump but this article is garbage)
The campaign was fined for incorrectly reporting their partial funding of opposition research as "legal services." That is 100% unrelated to how much of that opposition research was true.
And it doesn't matter whether I trust Pelosi or Hillary Clinton more, they aren't disagreeing with each other so they can both be right or wrong independent of each other.
A person that receives massive bribes from israel is throwing someone under the bus for taking massive bribes from Russia...
I'm glad someone is still buying into this theatre. More posts about Orange Man on my front page please. Nanshill Pelosi is definitely going to liberate America.
I'm googling for what you're talking about and finding nothing. Do you mean she takes contributions from pro-Israel PACs, the entirely legal way politicians raise money?
And you're equating it to a foreign leader having secret leverage over a likely major party nominee?
No matter the false equivalence you find it wouldn't impact whether or not she's right, I'm just shocked at how far you're willing to stretch to find an equivalence.
Ah I forgot. Pelosi is a foreign agent for israel. which is very good and very legal.
While Trump takes money from Russia! which is very bad and illegal.
And because israel good and Russia bad, Pelosi good and Trump bad.
Your definition of "foreign agent" has to be so broad as to be meaningless to conflate the two. Pelosi did not do anything illegal, Trump did (according to her). It's not because of the countries involved, it's because they did different things.
Oh my bad, serving a foreign entity and accepting bribes from them is different when it's legal. You are very smart thanks for pointing that out
Campaign fundraising just isn't bribery. Bribery, on the other hand, is bribery. Sorry you had to learn that lesson from me.
Thanks for explaining what is illegal almost everywhere around the world except for America as being something completely different than another thing.
Also when did Trump go to Prison for the things you claim he did again? It was illegal bribery right?
And it's still too difficult for you.
