As a foreigner with limited knowledge about the powers of a US House Speaker:
What value would a laptop of Nancy Pelosi provide to a foreign government, if it doesn’t include incriminating content?
I‘m not suggesting that this story is bogus, but rather that Riley June Williams hopes were and she vastly overestimated the laptop’s value to anyone.

The house decides the budget for the entire federal government (so black budgets, NSA, etc.) and most of their work is public, but at least some of it is classified and other parts are politically sensitive.
