Pelosi Finally Leaving The Swamp

Nancy Pelosi, 86, is preparing to exit Washington—don’t let the door hit you on the way out! Pelosi is a prime example of a career politician who uses the guise of public service as a self-serving career for power and fortune.

First elected in 1987, Pelosi has spent her entire career treading in the swamp. She began volunteering for the California Democratic Party in 1962 after graduating college. In 2001, she joined the House Democratic Caucus, by 2003, she became the minority leader, and in 2007, she became the first female Speaker of the House. Pelosi has never lost an election, nor does she have any experience outside of politics.

Nancy Pelosi has accumulated a $240 million fortune through blatant inside trading. Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Nvidia, among others—when the government is making moves, her “husband” just so happens to make lucky trades ahead of the news. Her current salary is $174,000, previously $223,500, and she will earn a $139,000 annual pension upon retirement. Naturally, she will still have those inside sources and continue to grow her wealth.

In the past decade, Pelosi’s inside trading has generated an 816% return. She has outperformed the S&P 500 by 559 percentage points. Her portfolio grew 71% in 2024 alone. This is all par for the course, as countless other public servants have amassed a fortune through high-value inside trading.

Progressive members of the Democratic Party have been pushing Pelosi out. The younger generation is more socialistic and less willing to openly generate wealth through backroom deals. Although she has not officially declared retirement, Pelosi is 86 years old and facing numerous health issues. The Democratic Party is separating in a massive way, becoming a national embarrassment. She has nothing to lose by sliding away from the swamp now, especially is Prop 50 passes in California and provides the Democrats more leverage in the elections by redrawing congressional district maps.
