President Trump blasted former House Speaker Rep. Nancy Pelosi as a “disgusting degenerate” while alleging that she and her hubby reaped a fortune off “inside information.”
“Crooked Nancy Pelosi, and her very ‘interesting’ husband, beat every Hedge Fund in 2024. In other words, these two very average ‘minds’ beat ALL of the Super Geniuses on Wall Street, thousands of them. It’s all INSIDE iNFORMATION!” Trump wrote in a blistering attack on Truth Social late Saturday.
Trump also implied that someone should look into Pelosi (D-Calif.) and gloated over how he overcame two impeachment efforts the leading Democrat oversaw.
“Is anybody looking into this??? She is a disgusting degenerate, who Impeached me twice, on NO GROUNDS, and LOST! How are you feeling now, Nancy???” Trump wrote.
It is not immediately clear what sparked Trump’s broadside against Pelosi, 85, who has fiercely denied any accusations of insider trading.
“Pelosi does not own any stocks and has no knowledge or subsequent involvement in any transactions,” spokesperson Ian Krager told The Post last month.
The Post contacted a Pelosi spokesperson for a response to Trump’s latest swipe against her.
Nonetheless, the speaker emeritus has long faced scrutiny over her husband Paul’s venture capital and other business endeavors.
Lawmakers are not required to publicly divulge their net worth, which means it is unclear exactly how much she is worth.
An estimate from Quiver Quantitative has pegged it at least $263.23 million, making her the fourth richest member of Congress. But there are open questions about whether she is even wealthier than that.
Last year, Paul Pelosi’s trades in 2024 outperformed the S&P 500’s 25% gain last year, by hauling in some 54% in returns, as The Post previously reported, citing Bloomberg data.
In January, Paul Pelosi invested in an artificial intelligence health firm, Tempus AI, buying it when it was worth some $31.83 per share. But then the firm cut a $200 million deal with AstraZeneca and is now worth about $60.87 a share, almost double the price when Paul Pelosi purchased it.
Other transactions that have raised eyebrows include well-timed trades of NVIDIA, Palo Alto Networks, energy company Vistra, and more.
Last year, Paul Pelosi dumped some $2.2 million shares of Microsoft stock, in one of his largest sales in about three years, just a few months before the Federal Trade Commission began an antitrust probe of the company.
Back in 2021, Pelosi ripped into a push for a ban on stock trades by members of Congress, arguing that “we’re a free‑market economy.”
She has since backed some iterations of such a ban.
Last month, Sen. Josh Hawley’s (R-Mo.) Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments (PELOSI) Act cleared a key Senate Committee and drew ire from both Trump and other Republicans.
The PELOSI Act restricts lawmakers from owning individual stocks or trading them.
Initially, Trump raged against Hawley as a “second-tier” senator after being left under the impression that the ban would apply to him and require key divestments.
Hawley has since appeared to have won Trump over after explaining that the ban would not impact presidents until early 2029, when his term concludes. That bill could come up when the Senate reconvenes from recess next month.
Pelosi has not said whether or not she intends to vie for reelection in 2026.
