Summary

Allegations by Donald Trump:
- Former President Donald Trump is quoted calling for an investigation into Nancy Pelosi, accusing her of using insider information to amass wealth through stock trading.
- He claims Pelosi has achieved returns “practically in the history of Wall Street” and suggests this is due to her access to non-public information.
Financial Discrepancies Highlighted:
- Pelosi’s government salary is cited as $174,000/year, yet her net worth is reported to have grown from $114.7 million in 2018 to potentially $413 million by 2024.
- The file references sources like OpenSecrets, Investopedia, and The Times to support these figures.
- Paul Pelosi reportedly earned between $7.8 million and $42.5 million in 2024 from stock trades.
Stock Performance:
- The Pelosi portfolio allegedly returned 54% in 2024, outperforming the S&P 500’s 25% gain.
- Notable trades included early investments in Nvidia and Palo Alto Networks, and timely sales of Microsoft and Visa.
Pelosi’s Response:
- In a CNN interview with Jake Tapper, Pelosi deflects the insider trading question, emphasizing her focus on the 60th anniversary of Medicaid.
- She denies wrongdoing, stating: “I’m not into it. My husband is,” and accuses Trump of “projecting.”
