Zombiepirateshe will have to trade blindly, like a pleb
I wish Nancy Pelosi only the best in private life, but let this be the final time we utter her name.
wizblizzGood riddance, all her grifted insider-traded capital gains should be taken away and distributed to taxpayers.
The economic outlook is so bleak that even people who can take advantage of insider trading are getting out.
_haha_oh_wow_I don’t think anyone is upset by this and I am confident the people of california can bring us someone great for congress. I am a bit worried though as I know in illinois a congressman just bowed out post deadline for people to register for the primaries which if he had done before would have resulted in a much bigger field.
I don’t think anyone is upset by this
People whose investment strategy was “copy whatever Pelosi does”.
That’s a dumb strategy. The disclosures come waaay after-the-fact, when it’s too late to get the same insider-trading advantage.

Finally
Thank God. Schumer next!
Who am I gonna follow to make money on the stock market?!?!
Almost anyone else in Congress, really.
For me, she lost all credibility when she refused to impeach Bush for war crimes. Seriously, Abu Ghraib? The torture memos? Nothing?
If we had gone hard on Bush, Trump never would have run.
Roll it back. If we’d been hard on the Confederates we wouldn’t have any of these present shitstains.
That’s true, but Pelosi aint THAT old. 😉
I’ve got a list of people that can go with her
‘I’ve made enough money, time to give someone else a shot.’
Fuck you and the horse you rode in on Pelosi
Gracias a dios
Good. She became what she swore to fight against. She’s should have quit on a high note decades ago
Counterpoint: She was always that person from the very beginning, and that’s precisely why she didn’t quit decades ago.
What? She’s always been socially liberal but fiscally conservative and in the pocket of big businesses.
She has always lived a privileged life who got where she is today because of her family connections. Her father was a congressman and her brother in law was a long term member of the county and city advisory board for San Francisco. Her husband is the head of a venture capital and rel estate investment group.
Isn’t that just the definition of a liberal?
It’s the definition of a neoliberal, and further exploration requires paragraphs of commentary that the libs won’t read anyways
Pretty unanimous with liberals today. However, we have to remember she is fucking ancient and back when her career started there were still liberals who believed in government spending.
Good.
Gtfo. Don’t expect a ticker tape parade
Don’t let the door hit your corrupt ass on the way out, Nancy.
Fuck off and stay out. You’re outdated like most politicians in the US.
This is TERRIBLE News! Such a YOUNG Spry Chicken with SO MUCH Left to
Gain on Her PortfolioGive to some People somewhere maybe in California!Burn in hell bitch
In the manufacturing world this is what’s called a dirty hold study. You can do them to push out expiration dates/cleaning cycles/campaign lengths for equipment. This one failed.
“You have sat too long here for any good you have been doing. Depart, I say, and let us have done with you. In the name of God, go.”
That can refer to much of the Democratic leadership and all of the Republicans, too.
Trump Congress ~ Rump Parliament.
Could have left as an icon, waited too long and shat over her legacy.
Same as RBG
Translation: she believes she wouldn’t win in a newly drawn district.
The San Francisco district didn’t change in the redistricting, and remains one of the few coherent house districts these days. There is a progressive using the mamdani playbook challenging her in the 26 primaries, so maybe she just wants to quit while she’s ahead and keep her undefeated record.
Ah. Thanks for clarifying.
Whole lotta misogyny in this thread…
Or, Pelosi is a corrupt piece of shit and an anchor to progress.
Where? Pelosi is a bad person, and people have legitimate grievances. It seems most comments aren’t even airing those though, they’re just saying “good”. I see one calling her a bitch, and one saying she’s old which could tenuously be called misogyny if you were stretching. (At time of writing)
Otherwise, is this just another instance of somebody being sensitive about criticism being levied towards somebody who is part of a group criticised for their nature?
Arguably the most effective Speaker in history, and got an incredible amount of maximally progressive legislation through the House on the thinnest of margins again and again and again. There’s a reason Republicans hated (and feared) her so much.
