The White House did excavations to the former speaker of the Nancy Pelosi Chamber at a press briefing on Thursday, saying that it is the reason why the Congress is considering a measure to prohibit all legislators from negotiating actions.

On Wednesday, President Donald Trump accused Pelosi of having accumulated his wealth “by having internal information” in the trading of actions.

“The reason why this idea of prohibiting the trade in actions against members of the congress is even one thing is because of Nancy Pelosi,” said the White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt on Thursday. “I mean, it is rightly criticized because it earns $ 174,000 per year. However, it has a net value of around $ 413 million in 2024, the Nancy Pelosi action portfolio – it was a fascinating statistic for me – increased by 70% in one year in 2024.”

“I think the president stands with the American people on this subject,” said Leavitt. “He does not want to see people like Nancy Pelosi enriching himself from the public service and tearing their voters in the process.”

Pelosi tackled Trump’s comments in an interview Wednesday with Jake Tapper from CNN, where she herself accused Trump of “projecting”.

“It’s ridiculous,” said Pelosi on Wednesday. “In fact, I support a lot of stopping trade in the members of the congress. Not that I think anyone who does something wrong. If they are, they are pursued and they go to prison. But because of the confidence that it instills in the American people, do not worry.”

“But I do not care about the obvious investments that have been made over time,” said Pelosi. “I’m not in it. My husband is, but it’s nothing to do with anything initiated.”

Pelosi spokesperson Ian Krager said in a statement to Fox News Digital: “The speaker Pelosi has no actions and has no subsequent knowledge or involvement in transactions.”

Nancy Pelosi exploded by Twitter users after having denied that she gave information to her husband for action transactions: “ lies’ ”

The legislator was previously examined for the offense of initiate, including in 2022 after Paul Pelosi bought more than a million dollars in shares from the NVIDIA semiconductor company before the Congress vote on a subsidy to industry. The purchase was revealed in disclosure deposited with the office of Nancy Pelosi.

The question received renewed attention after the Senate Committee for Internal Security and Government Affairs adopted the honest act on Wednesday that Senator Josh Hawley, R-Mo., Defended.

The measure, which Hawley introduced for the first time as leaders elected to have the law on securities and investments, or Pelosi Act, would prohibit all legislators and their spouses of commercial actions in office.
