‘Furious’ Pelosi Drops F-Bomb in Response to Trump Deploying National Guard to Los Angeles: Report

Speaker Emerita Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is ‘furious’ over President Donald Trump deploying National Guard troops to Los Angeles in response to out of control illegal immigration riots.

Pelosi is still sore over the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot when she was Speaker and failed to protect the Capitol with sufficient police and D.C. National Guard troops, even though President Trump had offered 10,000 troops.

Speaking to Matt Berg with lefty news site Crooked Media, the 85-year-old Catholic grandmother of nine Pelosi, let the F-bomb fly (excerpt):

Nancy Pelosi is furious about Donald Trump’s decision to deploy the National Guard to the Los Angeles protests and not during the Capitol riots, the California lawmaker exclusively told What A Day.

Demonstrations roiled part of downtown Los Angeles and a working-class suburb over the weekend, sparked by a trio of ICE raids on workplaces. Now, President Donald Trump is saying that Los Angeles would’ve been “completely obliterated” had he not sent in the National Guard. (That’s a lie: Los Angeles is massive, and the protests didn’t affect most residents.)

What’s also bothering Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), however, is the fact that Trump didn’t send the National Guard to the Capitol during the January 6 riots: “It’s overwhelming because [the insurrectionists] want to put a bullet in my F-word head and they were going to hang the vice president of the United States — and this guy is not sending in the National Guard, and then lying about it to the public,” she told What A Day. “I’m very concerned about the hypocrisy.”

…Trump’s actions have “inflamed the conditions on the ground,” Pelosi added. “I don’t think there’s any mystery to the fact that the president is not acting in the constitutional way, in so many other respects, not just this.”

Stock market watchdog claims Nancy Pelosi raked in $4.7M in single day of trading

Stock market watchdog Quiver Quantitative announced Monday that Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., had made millions in the market since that day’s opening bell.

The representative allegedly raked in $4.7 million, according to Quiver’s estimates. It claimed that figure inflated her overall net worth to $261.9 million.

An X account dedicated to tracking Rep. Pelosi’s stock market activity added the sum amounted to 26 times her annual salary.

A representative of Rep. Pelosi’s office told The National News Desk Tuesday the former House speaker does not own any stocks, adding that the tracked account belongs to her husband Paul Pelosi.

“Speaker Pelosi does not own any stocks, and she has no prior knowledge or subsequent involvement in any transactions,” they wrote via email.

The findings come as lawmakers are renewing a push to ban members of Congress from trading stocks. Sens. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and John Fetterman, D-Pa., in 2024 voiced support for legislation to require lawmakers release control of their money by placing it in a blind trust.

Sen. Josh Hawley: The Pelosis Beat Every Hedge Fund with Their Stock Trading

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and her husband, Paul, have made hundreds of millions of dollars off Nancy’s insider knowledge, but Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) has a plan to stop it, he told Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow on Thursday’s episode of The Alex Marlow Show.

Hawley reintroduced the Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments (PELOSI) Act in April to ban members of Congress and their family members from being able to trade or hold stocks.

The bill’s namesake, former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), has made “hundreds of millions” – despite a salary never higher than just over $200,000 – since her election to Congress. Hawley said that cannot be done following the law.

“You don’t do it legally,” Hawley said of Pelosi’s acquisition of wealth. “And here’s the thing, Nancy Pelosi and her husband last year, in 2024, beat every hedge fund in the nation, practically. So, either Nancy Pelosi is a mathematical and financial analyst genius… or maybe, maybe the information that she’s privy to turns out to be pretty darn valuable.”

“And everybody knows it’s the second thing. It’s just outrageous,” he added.

Hawley’s nonpartisan bill would be enforced for both Republicans and Democrats, but Pelosi is the most notorious offender.

Hawley said for her to have that success without breaking the law and using insider information, Nancy would have to be “a total financial genius, the likes of which comes along once every I don’t know, 1,000 years.”

Hawley believes elected officials staying in elected office longer than the founders intended is connected with the problem of members exploiting the office to enrich themselves. Its “no coincidence” that “the longer they’re here, the more ways they find to make money off of their jobs,” he told Marlow.

“Members of Congress are paid a salary. That’s fine, obviously, but we’re not talking about that,” he said. “We’re talking about millions and millions and millions of tens of millions of dollars – hundreds of millions, in the Pelosi case that they’ve made while she has been in office.”

Members of Congress “leveraging the office” to get rich is “the farthest thing from what the Founders intended,” Hawley said. “And really it’s a disaster for our system if it’s allowed to continue without any kind of check.”

RFK Jr. Calls Out King Abdullah: ‘They’ve Cut Us Off’

It’s a rare moment today in American politics that Donald Trump’s West Wing, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi are on the same side of an issue. And it’s rarer still that each of these parties is irritated at the same person.

Yet as Jordan’s King Abdullah II returns to Washington on Monday, top Trump aides, Kennedy, and Pelosi are venting their frustration with one of the Middle East’s longest-serving monarchs.

At issue: the commitment Abdullah made in February sitting by Trump’s side in the Oval Office to accept 2,000 children from Gaza with cancer and other grave illnesses.

Abdullah, say multiple high-ranking officials in both parties, is slow-walking his pledge, and Jordan has only accepted a fraction of sick children because of fears Israel will not let them and their families return to Gaza after treatment.

“They took 44, and then they’ve cut us off,” Kennedy told me over the weekend.

Alluding to Abdullah, an adviser and ally to American presidents for over a quarter-century, Kennedy said: “I would encourage him to put the welfare of these children first and put the politics aside.”

The health secretary pointedly recalled that the king’s “statements to President Trump were really unconditional.” Kennedy repeatedly emphasized the life-and-death urgency of the patients. “These kids are very, very fragile,” he said.

A top West Wing official involved in the discussions was even more to the point, calling Jordan’s reluctance to fully fulfill their pledge “a sad commentary” and that “the war makes things difficult for obvious reasons.”

Pelosi, who has a longstanding friendship with Abdullah, took matters into her own hands last week and had a blunt, private conversation with Jordan’s ambassador to the U.S., Dina Kawar. Kawar told Pelosi that Abdullah’s pledge was contingent on Israel allowing those children who’ve finished treatment to return to Gaza and suggested the former speaker talk to the king, I’m told by a person familiar with the conversation.

Can the PELOSI Act bring accountability to Congress?

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) has reintroduced the aptly named PELOSI Act in Congress, which aims to ban members of Congress from engaging in insider trading.

The bill’s title, the PELOSI Act, stands for “Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments” — which is essentially calling out former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for the questionable way she made millions in the stock market.

“Most members of the public think it’s already banned,” Hawley explained in a statement regarding the proposed act. “And when I say, ‘Actually, it’s 100% legal,’ they say, ‘Why?’ And there’s no good answer to that question.”

“Nancy Pelosi is the poster child for all of this,” Sara Gonzales of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered” comments. “I mean, you’ve seen her estimated net worth — $250 million.”

$175,000 a year in Congress for the 289 years that she’s been alive somehow ends up with a net worth of $250 million,” she continues.

The act would not completely ban elected officials from investing, as they could still invest in mutual funds, ETFs, and U.S. treasuries.

However, Gonzales isn’t hopeful things will change.

“The problem here is that I don’t think this will ever happen, because there are too many people on both sides of the aisle who are doing this right now,” Gonzales says. “They are profiting off of their position, and it just feels like there’s no end in sight.”

“You’ve got a couple of good guys like Josh Hawley who’s like, ‘Hey, we should do this.’ You’ve got a couple of good guys like Ted Cruz who are like, ‘Hey, we should have term limits.’ And the rest of them are like, ‘Nah, let’s just do this forever and get really rich,’” she adds.

Old Video Of Pelosi Echoing Trump On China Tariffs Resurfaces

An old video of Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) urging Congress to retaliate against China’s tariffs on the United States is going viral for its uncanny resemblance to President Donald Trump’s current tariff policies.

Recorded on the House floor in June 1996, the video features Pelosi calling on her colleagues to challenge the “status quo” trade policies that had contributed to America’s growing trade deficit with China. She specifically urged lawmakers to address the disparity between American tariffs on Chinese goods and the higher tariffs imposed by China on U.S. products.

“In terms of tariffs, it’s interesting to note that the average U.S. MFN [Most Favored Nation] tariff on Chinese goods coming into the United States is two percent, whereas the average MFN tariff on U.S. goods going into China is 35 percent,” Pelosi said then.

She then asked, “Is that reciprocal?” before calling the U.S.-China trade relationship a “job loser” for America.

“In terms of jobs, this is the biggest and cruelest hoax of all. Not only do we not have market access, not only do they have prohibitive tariffs, not only are our exports not let in very specifically, but China benefits with at least, at least, 10 million jobs from U.S.-China trade,” she said.

Pelosi went on to point out how the U.S. was only getting 170,000 American jobs out of the relationship at the time.

Look Out Pelosi! Elon Musk Announces Investigation into “Strangely Wealthy” Members of Congress During Wisconsin Rally

Several unjustly wealthy members of Congress, including one infamous far-left politician from San Francisco, may soon find themselves completely exposed by Elon Musk.

During a Sunday night town hall in Green Bay, Wisconsin, Musk revealed that he had noticed an inordinate number of multimillionaires in America’s legislative branch. He then vowed that he and DOGE would launch an investigation to stop this corrupt activity.
.
“A lot of strangely wealthy members of Congress…Where I’m just trying to connect the dots of how did they become rich,” Musk told the audience. “How’d they get $20 million if they’re earning $200,000 a year?”

“No can explain that,” he added. “We’re gonna try to figure it out and certainly stop it from happening.”

Trump EPA Cancels Funding for Nancy Pelosi’s and Ilhan Omar’s Pet Climate Projects

The EPA canceled two multimillion-dollar environmental justice grants that Democratic Reps. Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) and Ilhan Omar (Minn.) helped to secure just weeks before President Donald Trump took office, the Washington Free Beacon has learned.

Pelosi helped secure a $20 million grant awarded to the San Francisco County Transportation Authority to help develop six green transportation projects—including the purchase of an electric bus, installation of electric ferry charging ports, and creation of a bike-share program. “This project will create a cleaner, greener city where reliable public transportation promotes equity and opportunity for all San Franciscans,” Pelosi said in a statement announcing the grant in December.

Omar, meanwhile, was involved in securing a $10 million grant to build solar panels and energy efficiency upgrades at the Minneapolis American Indian Center and develop a geothermal energy system at the Sabathani Community Center. The partnership between the two Minneapolis-based community centers would strengthen the resilience of an area that is “home to low-income communities disproportionately impacted by climate change,” Omar wrote to the EPA months before the agency awarded the grant.

“Recent examples of the importance of these two legacy organizations includes [sic] their response to the civil unrest following the murder of George Floyd and how they served as critical resources throughout the pandemic,” she wrote in the letter obtained by the Free Beacon.

The Minneapolis partnership and San Francisco development projects, a source familiar told the Free Beacon, are among the more than 400 environmental justice and DEI-related grants that EPA administrator Lee Zeldin, in collaboration with the White House’s Department of Government Efficiency, has canceled in recent weeks.

The EPA’s actions to revoke the grants highlight the EPA’s and, more broadly, the Trump administration’s efforts to curb spending. Zeldin ordered EPA officials to conduct a line-by-line review of grants disbursed by the Biden administration. Overall, the Trump EPA has clawed back more than $1.7 billion awarded under the previous administration and terminated eight grants worth $20 billion for a “green bank” program.

“It is our commitment at EPA to be exceptional stewards of tax dollars,” Zeldin said this month.

Nancy Pelosi Gets TRIGGERED During Trump’s Speech, Visibly Shaken After Trump Asks Democrats to Work Together to Make America Great Again – Looks Like She’s Having a Stroke!

Democrats lost it during President Trump’s first address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday.

Democrat lawmakers were disruptive and looked disgusted as President Trump outlined the rapid success of his second administration…

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Democrats were unhinged, booing President Trump at the beginning of his speech. Far-left Democrat Rep. Al Green (TX) was forcibly removed from the Capitol over his repeated disruptions.

About five minutes after Al Green’s ejection, former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) looked like she was having a stroke when President Trump called on Democrats and Republicans to unite for the good of our nation!

Hysterical Harpies Hollering About Elon Musk’s Access to Government Docs Should Make You Laugh

The man who brought you Tesla, StarLink, SpaceX, Neuralink, X.com, and other norm-breaking companies is now the target of screeching, hysterical harpies hyping the Democrat narrative that Elon Musk has no right to put eyes on any government documents. Sure, ladies, sure. Head pat. 

They accuse Elon Musk of “hacking” government documents. They accuse him of stealing your social security number from the IRS. Indeed, the world’s richest man is “getting access to the sensitive federal payment system!” Musk, who’s working for free to save the government money, is going to steal your money! “Elon Musk is rooting around highly sensitive data, and he might not even have been properly vetted,” they fretted.

And he’s unelected to boot. 

I can understand that an unelected bureaucrat’s finger in the government pie might be worrisome. I worried a lot when the elected Barack Obama put organizations out of business that dared call for the end of government profligacy back in 2012. I worried when the elected Joe Biden hired 87,000 unelected IRS police armed with guns to collect taxes. 

But how galling is it that an unelected person — an unvetted billionaire! — saves the American public money? How dare he pull the nation from the brink of insolvency and stop in its tracks the forever inflation caused by the unelected Cloward Piven-inspired spending by Dementia Joe’s unelected presidential stand-ins. 

So concerned with the idea that Elon Musk is getting a look at sensitive government documents that Democrats that Nancy Pelosi and her flying monkeys have proposed a bill they call “The Taxpayer Data Protection Act.” It will “prevent Elon Musk and his minions from accessing the private data of everyday Americans to serve their own interests” and “stop people with conflicts of interest or without a security clearance from accessing the highly sensitive Treasury Department payment system.” This, of course, is according to the woman whose insider information has turned her from a thousandaire to a multimillionaire over the decades for being a “public servant.” 

And, as usual, Nancy’s wrong. She and her fellow screamers can harp and howl at the moon, but chances are that Elon Musk isn’t looking at anyone’s private information — and regarding a security clearance? Well, has she stopped to smell herself?
