Reports: Pelosi's husband made huge Tesla buy prior to Biden's electric vehicle announcement

Move raises ethics concerns, watchdog claims.

Ethics watchdogs say the timing of large purchases of Tesla stock by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband Paul raises ethics concerns due to an appearance of insider trading.

Paul Pelosi reportedly purchased up to $1 million in stock from electric car giant Tesla last month. President Joe Biden, meanwhile, announced this week that his administration intends to take the entire federal fleet of automobiles electric.

The move by Pelosi was "corrupt and unacceptable," TakeBack.org Executive Director John Pudner claimed in an interview with the Washington Times this week.

"Even if the actual charges are not provable beyond a reasonable doubt or trigger SEC action, the timing of trades with potential insider information always looks bad," a former federal prosecutor told the publication.

A spokesman for the speaker said that "her husband, not the speaker, made the Tesla bets and the speaker's political relationships were irrelevant," the Times reported.

I cannot stress this enough: The federal law enforcement arm telling lies in order to spy on American citizens is one of the most dangerous crimes in America. Kevin Clinesmith should never see the light of day again.

The FBI abusing its authority to violate the civil rights of an American citizen is infinitely worse than anything that took place at the U.S. Capitol. Anything. Read a history book. It is the BIGGEST deal.

YouTube Deletes Videos of Senate Hearing from Sen. Ron Johnson’s Channel

Google-owned YouTube took down several videos from the channel of Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI). The videos were from a Senate hearing on coronavirus treatments, featuring a doctor testifying about the use of the medicine Ivermectin in cases of the Chinese virus.

In public comments, Sen. Johnson said YouTube’s decision to take down videos of the hearing was an attack on freedom of speech.

“Apparently, the ‘doctors’ at Google know more about practicing medicine than heroic doctors who have the courage and compassion to actually treat COVID patients and save lives,” continued Sen. Johnson.

In a message sent to managers of Sen. Johnson’s channel, YouTube said the videos of the hearing violated its policies on COVID-19.

“YouTube doesn’t allow claims that contradicts local health authorities medical information about COVID-19, to include guidance on treatment, prevention or transmission guidance,” said the Google-owned platform.

In comments to Breitbart News, Ben Voelkel, communications director for Sen. Johnson, condemned YouTube’s decision, who pointed out that videos of the same Senate testimony were still up on YouTube accounts of mainstream media publications

“Bottom line, it’s an example of big tech singling out conservative voices to silence them. For proof, the same testimony is still up on Bloomberg News’ youtube page,” said Voelkel.

“Also, this comes just a couple days after the NIH said there was insufficient evidence to recommend against the use of ivermectin to combat covid-19.”
