On his Truth Social platform, Donald Trump accused Nancy Pelosi and her husband of making more money than all hedge funds on Wall Street using insider information.
Trump's Accusations
Trump claims that Nancy and her husband have managed to succeed in investments by surpassing "thousands" of professional investors and hedge fund managers. He also noted that Nancy impeached him twice, which he argued was done "on no grounds."
PELOSI Act
The bill, initiated by Senator Josh Hawley, aims to ban members of Congress from owning or trading stocks. Trump expressed dissatisfaction with Hawley's support for it, saying that it is "great" for Nancy and Paul but "so bad" for the country.
Response from Nancy Pelosi
A spokesperson for Nancy Pelosi rejected Trump's accusations, stating that she owns no stocks and has no knowledge of her husband's transactions. Hawley later stated that Pelosi should not only be investigated but prosecuted.
The escalating conflict between Trump and Pelosi continues amidst a bill that may impact trading rules for members of Congress.
