Trump grilled Pelosi like never before.
President Donald Trump has unleashed a scathing new attack on former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, accusing her and her husband of using insider information to rake in millions—while ordinary Americans suffer under high prices and economic strain.
Trump took to Truth Social late Saturday with a fiery post, declaring that “Crooked Nancy Pelosi and her very ‘interesting’ husband outperformed every hedge fund in 2024. In other words, these two very average ‘minds’ somehow managed to beat thousands of so-called Wall Street geniuses. It’s all based on INSIDE INFORMATION!”
The 45th President didn’t stop there. He reminded Americans that Pelosi—who oversaw two failed impeachment attempts against him—has a long history of questionable ethics.
Trump questioned whether anyone was investigating the matter, calling Pelosi “a disgusting degenerate” who tried to impeach him twice “without any valid reason” and failed. “How’s that working out for you now, Nancy?” he added.
Pelosi, now 85, has fiercely denied any wrongdoing. Her spokesperson insists she owns no individual stocks and plays no role in her husband Paul Pelosi’s investments. But the numbers tell a different story—and they’re raising serious questions.
A Fortune Built in the Shadows
According to financial estimates, Pelosi’s net worth is at least $263 million, making her one of the richest members of Congress. Some analysts believe the true figure could be far higher.
In 2024, Paul Pelosi’s investments outperformed the S&P 500 by more than double—54% gains compared to 25%.
One trade in particular is drawing scrutiny: In January, Paul Pelosi bought shares of AI health firm Tempus AI for about $31.83 each. Months later—after a lucrative $200 million deal with AstraZeneca—the stock soared to $60.87.
Other eyebrow-raising trades include NVIDIA, Palo Alto Networks, Vistra Energy, and a $2.2 million sale of Microsoft stock—just months before the FTC launched an antitrust investigation into the tech giant.
The Stock Ban Push—And Trump’s Response
For years, Pelosi opposed banning lawmakers from trading stocks, famously saying in 2021: “We’re a free-market economy.” She later shifted her position after public outrage, but many say it’s too little, too late.
Now, Senator Josh Hawley’s Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments (PELOSI) Act is gaining steam. The bill would ban members of Congress from trading individual stocks—a direct shot at the practices critics accuse Pelosi of exploiting.
At first, Trump blasted Hawley, believing the bill would apply to presidents. But after learning it wouldn’t take effect until 2029, he shifted gears—now backing the effort to clean up Congress.
The Senate is expected to debate the bill after the August recess, setting up another major political battle.
What’s Next for Pelosi?
Pelosi has not yet announced whether she will run for re-election in 2026. With growing public scrutiny over her family’s fortune—and Trump keeping the spotlight firmly on her—many wonder if her political future is in jeopardy.
Bottom line: Trump’s attacks are hitting Pelosi where it hurts—her credibility, her legacy, and her bank account. And for millions of Americans tired of political corruption, this fight is far from over.
