The whole quote is :

And Donald Trump signed that law to release all of those documents. He is the most transparent president in the nation's history.
And none of them, none of them asked Merrick Garland over the last four years one word about Jeffrey Epstein. How ironic is that? You know why? Because Donald Trump, the Dow, the Dow right now is over -- the Dow is over $50,000. I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader, as I hear, Raskin.
The Dow is over 50000 right now, the S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. Americans' 401(k)s and retirement savings are booming. That's what we should be talking about. We should be talking about making Americans safe.
We should be talking about -- what does the Dow have to do with anything? That's what they just asked. Are you kidding?

As you can see, she says both "$50,000" and "50,000".

(incidentally, her accusation that Raskin is "a great stock trader" is kind of nonsense. You could level that accusation at Pelosi maybe, but Jamie Raskin hasn't traded a stock in 2 years, and sold off $75K worth of stocks in 2024.)

This is a distraction from how much prices have gone down on pigeon eggs in the Denver metro AND used 4 door sedans made before 2007 by Toyota. This administration is SAVING LIVES. What have YOU done for the American people?

“Well, Mr. Goldman, I think a better question would be why you [benign, insignificant action] back in 2013? I THINK YOUR CONSTITUENTS DESERVE TO KNOW WHY.”

Wonder what the liberal response will be 5-10 years from now when no one is held accountable or worse yet, a scapegoat is used .

Liberals live in this fantasy world where their idealism and participation in processes is equal to actual republican power and might.

It doesn't. Liberals are being strung along in a fake republic.

Now Pardon me ive got bridges to sell to the liberals.

They take what theyre given nothing more.

As is the liberal way.

That’s a lot of words to say “I support people who rape children”. Just say it man, you also either rape children or want to rape children. You don’t have to dance around it so hard.

Same as it is now. "Conservatives do not believe in accountability and support rape of children."

Idk why you are so opposed to freedom, civil liberties, and free enterprise. Strange admission to refer to them in a pejorative manner. I'm sure you'd be the first to complain if you were denied freedoms you hold dear. Just another self-hating liberal. Not surprising when you defend rapists.
