US President Donald Trump accused former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of profiting from “inside information” in the stock market, escalating long-standing political criticism of her family’s investments.
In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump called Pelosi a “disgusting degenerate” and claimed she and her husband “beat every hedge fund in 2024.”
He alleged that “these two very average ‘minds’ beat ALL of the Super Geniuses on Wall Street, thousands of them,” implying the performance was due to insider trading.
Trump also questioned whether authorities were “looking into this?”
