Hello and welcome. It is Eric Erickson here nationwide from my flagship studio,

0:04.6

WSB in Atlanta, Georgia, where I actually am in the studio for once. The phone number,

0:10.1

if you'd like to be a part of this program, 877-97-9-37-3-7-4-25. Yesterday, at the end of the program,

0:19.1

I brought up an op-ed in the Washington Examiner by former Georgia Senator Kelly Leffler about the Pelosi stock trading matter.

0:30.3

If you will recall, back during the pandemic, the left pounced on a report, a financial disclosure from Senator Leffler about stock trading that happened during COVID.

0:41.9

And the allegations were that she was attempting to trade through insider knowledge of the pandemic.

0:48.6

In fact, she probably more than any other person, given her background in finance, knows about insider trading and the dues and don'ts and what you can and can't do and had made sure that she was not doing what she shouldn't have been doing.

1:03.7

It didn't stop the left for making the allegations.

1:06.1

Meanwhile, the Pelosi's are outperforming not just the market, but the professional Wall Street investment advisors.

The Democratic solution is not to investigate, but to just pass a law to prohibit him from being able to do it. Senator Leffler's op-ed was in favor of there probably needs to be investigation. If you were going to investigate me and it turned out to be nothing, why don't you investigate him and at least see if there's anything there? Joining me to talk about this would be, Senator Leffler. Welcome to the program. How are you?

2:02.2

Thank you, Eric. I'm great. Great to be with y'all. Now, I hope I summarize that well, because

2:07.0

I mean, they came after you and it was looked at. It was dismissed. And yet, they don't even want to

2:12.5

look at this Paul Pelosi situation. Well, you nailed it, Eric. And this isn't about me.

2:18.9

I wrote the op-ed to draw a focus toward accountability.

2:24.1

And that's what Georgians.

2:25.3

That's what all Americans want is accountability in Washington that the rules apply to everyone
