to turn into anything like jail time? How many of you believe that based on everything you've lived through, everything you've seen, everything you know about the government, that the logical end state here is that these people who clearly were doing something inappropriate, I don't know what's legal and what's not legal. I'm not good at that. But clearly something monstrously inappropriate. Just monstrously. Overthrowing the government, that's pretty bad. But you think they'll be punished? I just don't feel like they're going to be punished. It just doesn't feel like that's where it's going. It might go there. It might. It doesn't feel like it. I don't know why. I think it's just pattern recognition, right? I've seen too many times we've been disappointed. So it just feels like, you know, Charlie Brown and the football every day.

All right. We'll watch that one.

All right, here's one we're going to do a little fact-checking on. Okay, I want you to, we're going to do, is this real or not real? So you all know that Nancy Pelosi got very rich trading stocks during her time in office and her percentage gains were way better than other people. Now when she's challenged about that, and obviously it looks like insider trading, which is legal, completely legal for people in Congress. They're the only ones that can do it. They can actually do insider trading and it's legal. So some say that's what she was doing but she denies it. Now the reason I haven't been much on this story, you've probably noticed, I know you've been asking me to cover this more or forever, and I don't, is because I don't treat things that are legal the same way I treat things that are illegal. So for the same reason that there are other things I say, well, it's legal, such as pardons. We're going to talk about a pardon in a little bit. I don't like pardons, but they're designed such that nobody is supposed to like them and they're totally legal and they're transparent mostly. Even if they're not, it's still legal. So if something is totally legal, I just don't feel like bitching about it is worth the time.

But I've got a question about what's real, what's true. So apparently her net worth is close to 300 million, but in 2024 it was over 300 million. Went down a little bit it looks like. But she beat the averages by a million miles. But here's the part I wanted to suggest. When asked to explain why she did so well, she says she's not the one who does the trading. She says her husband is the one who does the stock trades. Now is that what you would say? How is that a good alibi? Don't we just assume that all she'd have to do is tell her husband what to buy? That's no alibi at all. Why would you go with such a weak alibi? "Oh, my husband does the trading." Who would do that? In what world would you give the weakest alibi? There's only one world that you would do that. You didn't have a better alibi. If yo
