Trump calls for Nancy Pelosi to be ‘prosecuted’ over husband’s $500K Visa stock trade

“You think it was luck? I don’t,” Trump said.

By Victor Nava New York Post
President Donald Trump said Thursday he believes Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) “should be prosecuted” over her husband’s Visa stock trades ahead of a Justice Department lawsuit against the credit card giant.

“Nancy Pelosi has a little problem because her husband sold their Visa stock – they had a lot of Visa stock – one day before it was announced that Visa is being sued by the Department of Justice,” the GOP nominee said during a press conference at Trump Tower in New York.

The former House speaker’s husband, Paul Pelosi, unloaded 2,000 shares of Visa stock worth between $500,000 and $1 million on July 1, financial disclosures show.

“Think of that. Nancy Pelosi sold vast amounts of Visa stock one day before the big lawsuit that we all read about a few days ago,” he said.

“You think it was luck? I don’t.”

“She should be prosecuted,” Trump declared. “Nancy Pelosi should be prosecuted for that.”

“Speaker Pelosi does not own any stocks, and she has no prior knowledge or subsequent involvement in any transactions,” a spokesperson for Nancy told The Post earlier this week.

Comment:
What can you say?
Pelosi is a liar and a cheater.
Of course she tipped off her husband.

The feds have been investigating Pelosi and her husband for years but it isn't going anywhere because democrats are in charge of the investigation. That's one of the reasons democrats hate and fear a Trump administration.

Exactly. The Pelosis have made tens of millions off of Paul Pelosis deft use of insider information. Joe Biden has made tens of millions of dollars by selling out our national security to enrich himself and his family. They do this because the KNOW there will never be any consequences.

Nancy Pelosi Tells CNN What They Can And Cannot Report

Well, it’s a cult. This is why the Taylor Swift stuff bites them so hard. Taylor Swift? Who cares about Taylor Swift. Anyone who bases their decision on who to vote for based on she or any other empty headed hollywierd snob says, should have the right taken away! :auiqs.jpg:

Yep, I referred to this on Wednesday. Of course the cult ***** will ignore it. As long as it is a Dem commie, the cult is fine with insider trading.

THEY ARE IN A CULT.

 

[ColonelAngus]

Pelosi is corrupt. The cult does not care.

Republicans have had control of both houses and never did anything but give it lip service

The ONLY reason that they don’t get Pelosi and NEVER will is

They are doing the same thing

They all have for years

It's not illegal (sadly) for members of Congress to partake in insider trading.

I took 2 minutes to research any negative news concerning Visa prior to the sale and came across this item which is dated June 25th, about a week before the Paul Pelosi's sale. As Ronald Reagan would say: "Trust, but verify".

New YorkCNN —
A federal judge overseeing a $30 billion preliminary swipe-fees settlement between Mastercard, Visa and retailers formally rejected the deal Tuesday. The ruling likely means the credit card processors will have to make more concessions to resolve their long-standing dispute with merchants.

She has so much dirt on Washington nobody dares do anything about their insider trading. She lust laughs and mocks them.

 

[BluesLegend]

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

That's such BS. Nancy Pelosi passed a law post Enron that also requires spouses to avoid these conflicts and independence issues "EVEN IN APPEARANCE". Her hypocrisy is staggering.

Yeah, and I can't really see a corrupt congress passing laws to stop themselves from indulging in this.

This is false.

This YouTube video is wrong. Imagine that.

Insider trading was never legal for Congress but just to assuage fears the STOCK act makes it 100% clear.

Section 4 says it all.

2nd link. Obama gutted the STOCK act soon after it was signed. All smoke and mirrors.

“Still, two major elements of the law remain. Insider trading is illegal, even for members of Congress and the executive branch. And for those who are covered by the now-narrower law, disclosures of large stock trades are required within 45 days. It will just be harder to get to them.”

Don’t believe everything you see on YouTube.

Why has NO ONE ever been charged? Clear examples of Insider Trading have been shown many times.

Second, do you believe a $200 fine is an actual deterrent? Even if you want to argue it's technically illegal, it's really not. No one is going to go through the cost of prosecution over a $200 fine and no one is going to stop over a $200 fine.

It’s not a $200 fine. It’s the same penalty anyone else would get.

You’re probably confusing a penalty for non-disclosure.

Proving insider trading is always difficult. You say you have clear examples, but there’s probably little if any concrete evidence to back it up.
