President Donald Trump renewed his call for an investigation into Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) over alleged insider trading, this time including her husband, Paul Pelosi, in the demand.
The president’s latest remarks come just a week after he first targeted the former House speaker over her stock trading, as the Senate debated legislation to ban trading by members of Congress. At the time, Trump claimed Pelosi had “the highest return of anybody, practically, in the history of Wall Street.”
Trump reiterated similar points in a Truth Social post on Saturday night, questioning whether “anybody” was investigating the stock trading activities of the Pelosi family.
“Crooked Nancy Pelosi, and her very ‘interesting’ husband, beat ever 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! 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???” he posted.
Despite Trump’s repeated focus on the Pelosis’ stock market gains, Nancy Pelosi’s office has maintained that she personally owns no stocks and has denied any allegations of insider trading. Pelosi has also stated she would back a stock trading ban if it came to a vote in the House.
Her husband, Paul Pelosi, however, is the founder of a venture capital firm and has consistently posted sizable returns on trades, often outperforming the S&P 500. According to recent financial disclosures, the couple’s combined net worth exceeds $413 million.
As Trump continues to press for investigations into the Pelosis’ trading activity, Congress is weighing new restrictions. The HONEST Act — previously labeled the PELOSI Act by Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) — narrowly cleared a Senate committee last week, though it remains uncertain whether it will advance to a full Senate vote.
