InfoUSA Hired Pelosi's Son After She Became Speaker

In Other Violations
No Agenda

Ronald Kessler has the scoop... Apparently, InfoUSA, a database company that has recently been accused of fraud, hired Nancy Pelosi's son shortly after she became Speaker of the House.

<<< Just four weeks after Nancy Pelosi became speaker of the House this past January, Gupta and InfoUSA hired her son as a senior vice president. He told NewsMax InfoUsa pays him $180,000 a year.

Even though his job with InfoUSA is considered full-time, Paul Pelosi continues another full-time job, as a home loan officer at Countrywide Home Loans, part of Countrywide Financial, in San Mateo, a suburb of San Francisco.

While InfoUSA is based in Omaha, Pelosi said he reports to a small InfoUSA office in San Mateo.

In two interviews, Paul Pelosi confirmed that Gupta hired him as senior vice president for strategic development starting Feb. 1, just after Pelosi's mother took the gavel as speaker on Jan. 4. He said his mother is aware of his new job.

A person familiar with the arrangement says Gupta treats Pelosi as a "trophy" and has the Speaker's son accompany him at high profile meetings around the country.

Pelosi denied the suggestion he is being used because of his family ties.

"I don't think that's really what happens," he said.

Nor does he "think" his hiring was related to his mother becoming speaker, he said. But he acknowledged the timing raises a "good question."

"It's interesting, timing-wise," Pelosi said. "I don't see it that way, but I could see why you'd ask the question ... I guess you always wonder why somebody hires you, right?"

Asked how he can hold two full-time jobs at once, Pelosi said Countrywide is satisfied as long as he fulfills his quotas.

Spokesmen for Nancy Pelosi and for InfoUSA did not respond to requests by NewsMax for comment. >>>


$180,000 for a second job? Not too shabby, but not all that surprising for the son of the new Speaker of the House who campaigned against corruption and cronyism last year.

Sully, It was Email and the internet ( free speech) that won the first round of this propaganda war. It is time to start round two and hit em even harder.
By that we need an email campaign and a drop the journalism campaign.
Drop the supporters that are in the media that slant the news instead of report it.
Time, Esquire,Washington Post, NY Times, local and national magazines and newspapers.
Here's how..
E mail everyone you know that reads these publications and have them ask for a refund because of the socialists slant and mis information they have executed against the U.S citizens in our right to protect our constitution and the country's laws.

Case in point "Time" Magazine article on illegals arrested in Beardstown Illinois. Time says the 12 Million Illegals can not be arrested , rounded up and sent back.
I ask.... WHY NOT?
