Oops, she did it again!
… and again, and again, and again.
According to a report from the New York Post, none other than Ms. Pelosi has been busted in another blatant insider trading scheme.
Indeed, per recent public filings, Pelosi’s husband just happened to sell $500,000 in Visa stock … right before the Department of Justice launched an investigation into the company for anticompetitive practices.
Rather suspect, to say the least.
After all, Pelosi’s husband seems to make a habit of rather convenient trades right before the news cycle begins, suggesting that he is profiting quite handsomely from his wife’s extraordinarily loose lips.
Ron Geffner, a former enforcement attorney with the Securities and Exchange Commission, certainly finds Pelosi’s immense gains suspect, as anyone else with half a brain would.
“At various critical inflection points in history, members of our government have engaged in trading at a time which their conflicts are called into question,” Geffner remarked to the New York Post.
No kidding. That’s perhaps one of the nicest ways of characterizing Pelosi’s brazen disregard for insider trading.
Of course, Geffner was sure not to throw Pelosi too much under the bus, if only because he fears her somehow kicking him out of his post in the same ruthless manner that she relieved Biden of his 2024 presidential run.
“Before public opinion judges Pelosi unfairly, it is important to determine who engaged in the transaction on her behalf as well as whether it was part of a broader change of her portfolio,” Geffner added lamely.
Well, that’s rather generous, considering that Pelosi’s net worth has ballooned to a staggering nine figures since becoming a “public servant.”
Heck, most CEOs don’t have assets like that, though Ms. Preening Pelosi does.
Moreover, CEOs actually have to perform to make such money, as evidenced by “performance pay.”
Meanwhile, Pelosi can just jack taxes for more pork and engage in shameless insider trading for even more revenues … for herself.
Needless to say, Donald Trump was far blunter than Geffner about the realities of Pelosi and her little insider trading moves.
“Nancy Pelosi has a little problem because her husband sold their Visa stock – they had a lot of Visa stock – one day before it was announced that Visa is being sued by the Department of Justice,” Trump declared.
So, in other words, Pelosi and her husband left many others holding the bag.
Real people of the people, right there.
“Think of that. Nancy Pelosi sold vast amounts of Visa stock one day before the big lawsuit that we all read about a few days ago. You think it was luck? I don’t,” Trump added.
Neither does anyone else.
Which makes the remarks from a Pelosi spokesperson all the more absurd.
“Speaker Pelosi does not own any stocks, and she has no prior knowledge or subsequent involvement in any transactions,” the spokesperson sniffed.
Oh, is that so?
Guess her husband just magically happens to know when to buy and when to sell.
Then again, Pelosi and her husband have rather expensive tastes, which are clearly reliant upon wholly shameless insider trading.
For instance, Pelosi may rant and rave about the supposedly “moral obligation” to fight climate change.
Despite such public rants, she has reportedly shelled out an estimated $500,000 on private jets over a two-year period.
That’s right: a whopping two years.
So much for the “moral obligation” to fight climate change.
Never mind the “moral obligation” to serve the American public … as Pelosi is clearly more intent on emulating the likes of Marie Antoinette.
Let them eat cake, indeed …
