Nancy Pelosi Buys Millions In Call Options In Google, Micron, Roblox, Salesforce And Disney

Despite a populist grassroots movement seeking to ban Congress members from trading stocks, one which has attracted bipartisan political support, Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi - arguably one of the most prolific Congressional traders - said two weeks ago that lawmakers should be allowed to make trades while serving.

“We’re a free market economy,” Pelosi told reporters during a news conference. “They should be able to participate in that.”

Pelosi’s statement came days after progressive New Yorker, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, reiterated her support for banning lawmakers from the practice. Ocasio-Cortez and other members of Congress argue that lawmakers have access to information the public is not privy to and the ability to write and pass policy, they should abstain from buying and selling individual stock and other assets. She and other lawmakers support members of Congress investing in index funds.

“I choose not to hold any so I can remain impartial about policy making,” Ocasio-Cortez wrote on Instagram.

Pelosi's statement also came in the wake of a series of scandals involving federal lawmakers, Fed and government officials making suspect trades throughout the coronavirus pandemic.

Currently, Senator Richard Burr (R-N.C.), is under investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission for trades he made in the early days of the pandemic (Burr has said all of his trades were based on news reports, not non-public information), and other lawmakers were investigated by the Department of Justice for their trades.

It’s not limited to Congress: In October the Fed announced it would ban officials from owning individual stocks and bonds after two officials - Dallas Fed president Robert Kaplan and Boston Fed president Eric Rosengren - resigned following allegations of insider trading.

Members of Congress are theoretically barred from trading on nonpublic information thanks to the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge, or STOCK, Act, and during the press conference, Pelosi noted that lawmakers need to follow that law. “If people aren’t reporting [stock trades], they should be,” she said.

We mention all of this because according to the latest Periodic Transaction Report covering Nancy Pelosi's latest trades, the California Democrat purchased millions worth of call options in companies from Alphabet, to Micron, to Roblox, Saleforce and Walt Disney. Unfortunately, the strike price of the options was not disclosed, although with maturities well into 2022 and in some cases 2023, this appears to be a long-term levered bet.

And while the presumption is that there Pelosi did not trade on inside information, something tells us each of those trades will be profitable...

CIA Experimented on Hundreds of Orphans, Torturing Them to Reveal Psychopathic Traits—Report

According to a new documentary out of Denmark, which interviewed former victims, the Central Intelligence Agency secretly carried out experiments on 311 orphaned children. The experiments were meant to reveal psychopathic traits and map out the link between schizophrenia and heredity. According to the report, the children were tortured in clear violation of the Nuremberg Code of 1947 that introduced ethical restrictions for experiments on humans.

Hundreds of Danish orphans were unknowingly used in experiments backed by the CIA, according to Danish Radio, reporting on a new documentary called “The Search for Myself.”

According to the report, the experiments began in the early 1960s and spanned the course of two decades. They were conducted to investigate the link between heredity and environment in the development of schizophrenia. However, the children were not told what research they were involved in. Not even after the experiments ended. It was also funded in part by a CIA front associated with the MK-Ultra program.

Eerily, the examinations took place in a basement at the Municipal Hospital in Copenhagen. The director and producer of the documentary, Per Wennick, was actually a victim of the CIA and subjected to these experiments as a child. In the documentary, he recalled being placed in a chair, getting electrodes put on his arms, legs, and chest around the heart and having to listen to loud, shrill noises, which attempted to incite a psychological response.

“It was very uncomfortable”, Wennick told Danish Radio. “And it’s not just my story, it’s the story of many children.” By his own admission, he was promised “something funny” before being taken to the hospital. “I think this is a violation of my rights as a citizen in this society. I find it so strange that some people should know more about me than I myself have been aware of.”

According to historian, PhD, and museum inspector at the Danish Welfare Museum, Jacob Knage Rasmussen, this was the only known experiment in Danish history that used children under state care for research — and it was funded by the CIA in violation of the Nuremberg Code.

“I do not know of similar attempts, neither in Denmark nor in Scandinavia. It is appalling information that contradicts the Nuremberg Code of 1947, which after World War II was to set some ethical restrictions for experiments on humans. Among other things, informed consent was...

Remote Antarctic station hit with Covid-19 outbreak

The Belgian scientific base has reported a cluster of cases despite its staff being fully vaccinated

Researchers working at Belgium’s Princess Elisabeth Polar Station have contracted Covid-19, even though all personnel have been inoculated and any new arrival has to follow rigorous safety protocols.

Developments at the station, which is located miles from civilization, have proven there is no escape from the omnipresent virus that’s been holding the planet in its grip for almost two years.

Two-thirds of the station’s staff of 25 have been infected with the coronavirus, Belgium’s polar secretariat confirmed to local media earlier this week. But how the virus could have reached the remote station, located some 220km (137 miles) from the Antarctic coast, remains a mystery.

“All those present have received two doses of vaccine, and one person has even received a booster shot,” said Alain Hubert, the facility’s executive operator and head of security measures. All staff members also have to undergo a series of PCR tests on their long journey to the station.

Those en route there take one PCR test in Belgium before leaving for South Africa and another five days after their arrival. They self-isolate for 10 days in Cape Town, then undergo two further tests: one before leaving for Antarctica and another five days after arriving at the station.

Nonetheless, even such strict control measures were apparently not stringent enough, as the first Covid-19 case was reported at the station in mid-December among a group of new arrivals. The person in question was immediately placed in isolation, but two others were soon revealed to have contracted the coronavirus as well.

All three infected researchers were evacuated on December 23, but this measure did not stop the virus from spreading further. A virologist contacted by the polar secretariat said the variant that has infected personnel at the station might be Omicron – the highly transmissible strain recently...

#AOCLovesDeSantis trends as the Socialist Democrat STAR is caught living it up in mandate-free Florida while her constituents suffer

Florida is so horrible and evil and scary and downright AWFUL with all of that DeSantis freedom stuff that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez went there.

For what looks like a vacation.

New Year’s Eve?

Gosh, we can’t help but think about the hissyfit the Left threw when Ted Cruz went to Cancun during a winter storm in Texas. So far, we’re not hearing a peep from her lemming admirers but you’d think she’d stay put and try to do something to help her constituents who are suffering through their largest COVID surge yet. Not to mention the endless mandates being imposed on them and their children that have YET to do a damn thing to stop the latest variant.

But hey, those margaritas ain’t gonna drink themselves:

But we thought Florida was evil and stuff? Huh.

How could she?!

LOL

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

Quick, look like you’re working, someone just took our picture.

Fun being ‘famous,’ ain’t it, Sandy?

And all smiles in DeSantis’ Florida.

Freedom doesn’t suck, we get it. The issue is she’s a gigantic flipping hypocrite.

Who doesn’t?

You never know. A photo of her weeping profusely outside of this restaurant could very well show up at any moment. She was there to free the immigrant workers who made her margarita! Yeah, that’s it.

Definitely.

Well, you can, but it’s so much better when it’s real.

Perfection...

Stop Letting Them Test You: Breaking The COVID Construct

COVID means fear, control, and lockdowns because we’ve allowed people to make it mean fear, control, and lockdowns.

D.C. Health is giving out “Home COVID-19 Testing Kits” at libraries across the capital city.

At the majority of these sites, you’ll be handed two plastic, red, white, and blue envelopes per person. “Muriel Bowser, Mayor,” they read at the bottom. “Testyourselfdc.com.”

“Isn’t that wonderful!” you might be thinking, as you tear open the seal. “I want to be sure these winter sniffles aren’t COVID before I see my mother, or visit grandpa, or go away with some friends.”

Inside the envelopes, you’ll find a one-ended Q-tip (a “Nasal Self Swab”), wrapped in plastic; an official-looking LabCorp test tube, wrapped in plastic; and instructions to report your name, race, age, and sex to the city government, stick the Q-tip up your nose, deposit it in the test tube, put the “specimen bag” in the return envelope and drop it off at “one of the District’s specimen collection boxes by 8 p.m. the same day.”

Staring at this kit Wednesday morning, sniffling, I thought, “Why would I do that?”

Seriously, why the hell would I do that? Do I live in Florida, where if seriously ill, I’ll be given access to monoclonal antibody treatments while family, friends, and neighbors go about their lives? Do I live in Georgia or Texas, where I’d receive the same? Or Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, or Louisiana?

Or do I live in a city where the numbers will be rushed to the press, schools will be shuttered, mask mandates will be extended, new restrictions on the eternally wicked “unvaccinated” will be rolled out, and if I have a bad case I’ll have to drive hours to find a pharmacy willing to fill a doctor’s prescription?

Have local health care “experts” done anything to gain my trust? Or have they done everything they possibly can to betray it?
The COVID Construct

By and large, Omicron is the sniffles. A cold; maybe some aches, and the sniffles. If you live on the East Coast, you might already know more than a dozen people with Omicron and aside from an occasional fever, every one of them is...

The man accused of murdering 5-year-old Cannon Hinnant while he was riding his bicycle not far from his front door in 2020 has been indicted on murder charges.

The man accused of murdering 5-year-old Cannon Hinnant while he was riding his bicycle not far from his front door in 2020 has been indicted on murder charges.

On December 22, a grand jury indicted 25-year-old Darius Sessoms on the charge of first-degree murder, according to ABC 11.

Sessoms' is scheduled to appear in court next on Jan. 24.

On August 9, 2020, Sessoms walked up to where Hinnant was playing outside his father's home in Wilson, North Carolina and shot him in the head, according to WRAL.

Austin Hinnant said he heard a gunshot as his fiancée walked into the house at around 5:30 pm. Cannon's mother said the boy's two sisters, ages 8 and 7, saw their brother fatally shot.

"The first thing that went through my mind was maybe he just fell off his bike," the farther said. "The closer I got to him, the more I realized it was something far more serious."

"[You] can't imagine what it's like to hold your son in your arms with a gunshot wound to the head, and his blood is running down your arms," he said.

Hinnant was taken to Wilson Medical Center, where he later died.

Hinnant said the family had lived next door to Sessoms and his parents for eight years leading up to the shooting, even inviting Sessoms over for dinner on Sunday, and never had any confrontations.

"There wasn't anything between me and him, any bad blood whatsoever, for him to have a reason to do this," he said.

Another person was been charged in September in connection to the shooting. 21-year-old Aolani Takemi Marie Pettit was charged with felony accessory after the fact, according to...
