Nancy Pelosi is one of the figureheads in the Washington, D.C. Swamp.
Her recent actions are attracting new scrutiny.
And Donald Trump could put Nancy Pelosi in jail for this awful crime.
Trump accuses Pelosi of insider trading
Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and her husband, Paul, recently executed another one of their immaculately timed stock trades.
The couple dumped hundreds of thousands of dollars of Visa stock right before the Biden-Harris Justice Department hit Visa with an antitrust lawsuit no one in the public knew about.
Visa’s stock tanked, but because the Pelosi’s sold their shares ahead of the lawsuit, they avoided taking a massive financial hit.
There was no publicly available information that suggested an antitrust lawsuit against Visa was coming down the pike.
Nancy Pelosi’s net worth exploded by $140 million between 2008 and 2022.
Much of this newfound wealth is owed to the fact that Pelosi and her husband apparently have the Midas touch when it comes to picking stocks.
In fact, based on their track record over that period of time, one could easily argue that the Pelosi’s are the greatest investors on the planet, far outpacing the likes of Warren Buffet.
This is the type of behavior that causes everyday Americans to support former President Donald Trump when he pledges to Drain the Swamp.
Trump blasted Pelosi for what seems like obvious corruption in a press conference at Trump Tower.
“The 25th Amendment, they said, Joe, you’re going to get out, and Nancy Pelosi led the charge. And Nancy Pelosi has a little problem because her husband sold their visa stock, they had a lot of visa stock, one day before Visa was announced that Visa’s being sued by the Department of Justice. Think of that,” Trump stated.
Trump says Pelosi belongs in jail
Trump accused Pelosi of insider trading, and suggested a Trump administration would prosecute Pelosi for her stock trades revolving around companies Congress regulates.
“Nancy Pelosi sold vast amounts of Visa stock one day before the big lawsuit that we all read about a few days ago was brought against Visa. You think it was luck? I don’t think. She should be prosecuted,” Trump added.
Trump also said that Pelosi should face jail time for rejecting 10,000 National Guard troops on January 6.
Bombshell news disclosures from the House Oversight Subcommittee revealed that former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Mark Milley, admitted that Trump offered a National Guard deployment to protect the Capitol on January 6.
“Nancy Pelosi should be prosecuted for that, and she should also be prosecuted for J6 because she turned down 10,000 or any numbers you wanted, soldiers or National Guard. And I hope you all read John Solomon and what John Solomon wrote two days ago, because if you read it, you’d see that Donald Trump did absolutely nothing wrong. It’s a scam. It’s a scam,” Trump concluded.
Nancy Pelosi opposes a ban on members of Congress trading stocks
In December 2021, then-Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi forcefully opposed legislation that would ban Members of Congress from trading stocks.
“We’re a free market economy,” Pelosi told reporters. “They should be able to participate in that.”
But is it a free market if Members of Congress trade stocks of companies they regulate, making themselves millions of dollars, when that position of power potentially puts them in a position to receive insider knowledge?
