Pelosi Subsidies Benefit Husband’s Investment

[Jroc]

No mainstream media coverage of the corruption of Nancy Pelosi?...Must be nice to be a liberal democrat

The top Democrat in the House of Representatives steered more than a billion dollars in subsidies to a light rail project that benefitted a company run by a high-dollar Democratic donor and in which her husband is a major investor.

When cloud computing giant Salesforce sold a large plot of land to the Golden State Warriors in April, it had House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) to thank for helping to swell real estate prices in the area.

Pelosi has worked for more than a decade to steer taxpayer funds to a light rail project in San Francisco’s Mission Bay neighborhood, where Salesforce had planned a new campus. Experts say the project boosted the value of Mission Bay real estate.

The company’s CEO, Marc Benioff, is a high-dollar Democratic donor. Pelosi and her leadership PAC are among the recipients of his generous campaign contributions. Pelosi’s husband is also a major Salesforce investor.

Liberals have no problem with this i guess. They like their "1%" crooks

It's what fat cat business elitists 1 percenters do for one another.... In this case so happens to be among liberal elites.

Give the guy a break...look what he got stuck with.

A politician using his or her office to benefit personally? Well, I am shocked, shocked.

 

[LeftofLeft]

Next time, she should get help from her Senate colleagues, bury funds in legislation, and tell the voters that we need to pass it so we can find out what's in it

Anyone who thinks politicians choose that career to be a force for good for the
little people....well think again.

Most will leave office wealthy, some like Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi extremely wealthy.
