12 days before the federal government awarded a $22 BILLION defense dept contract to Microsoft, Nancy Pelosi's husband bought Million$ in Microsoft stock (using options). 12 days later that purchse was up over 20% due to the announcement of the defense dept contract.
This would be illegal insider trading if you or I did it, but not for Pelosi and con-gress.

Excerpt:
"Paul Pelosi exercised call options and paid $1.95 million to buy 15,000 shares of Microsoft at a strike price of $130 on March 19, according to an April 9th filing with the House clerk. That same day, Pelosi, who owns and operates a California venture capital investment and consulting firm, paid $1.4 million for 10,000 shares valued at $140 apiece.

Since Pelosi made the purchase, Microsoft share prices have climbed from about $230 to roughly $255 – an increase of close to 11% – after the company secured a lucrative government contract worth nearly $22 billion to supply U.S. Army combat troops with augmented reality headsets. The deal was announced on March 31."

    She's immune to "insider trading" charges as a member of congress. Also immune to sexual harassment charges, for what that's worth...
