Rod Blagojevich discussed how unusually successful Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and her husband, Paul Pelosi, are in the stock market, drawing new attention to a subject many of her critics have highlighted in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The estimated worth of the Pelosis is around $240 million as of July, according to a Times Now&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.msn.com\/en-in\/money\/markets\/what-is-nancy-pelosis-net-worth-california-reps-stock-portfolio-explored\/ar-AA1vROq8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">report<\/a>. That is up significantly from an estimated $171.4 million in 2021, according to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsweek.com\/how-nancy-pelosi-net-worth-vastly-increased-while-house-speaker-1762361\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Newsweek<\/a>. Pelosi has long denied any wrongdoing, despite many concerns from both sides of the political aisle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHer estimated net worth has increased significantly since 2008 thanks in large part to&nbsp;the success of her husband, Paul Pelosi, who is a venture capitalist and property investor. It\u2019s not possible to&nbsp;know the precise net worth of members of Congress as they are only required to provide a range of values in their financial disclosures and not specific dollar amounts,\u201d Newsweek noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Washington Free Beacon also estimated then that Pelosi\u2019s net worth had risen by $140 million since 2008.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many have speculated \u2014 without providing any evidence \u2014 that Pelosi, as a member of Congress and especially during her two tenures as Speaker of the House,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/crankers.com\/nancy-pelosi-alleged-stock-market\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">was privy<\/a>&nbsp;to insider information regarding companies that were set to explode in value or to lose value as a way to explain the couple\u2019s outsized success in the stock market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the Rogan podcast, the host told Blagojevich that someone developed an app called&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorker.com\/magazine\/2024\/06\/03\/how-to-pick-stocks-like-youre-in-congress\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Autopilot,<\/a>&nbsp;which tracks stock trading by members of Congress, including Pelosi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOh, it\u2019s so good,\u201d Rogan said. \u201cI\u2019m not really a stock market person. I don\u2019t pay attention. But, I do know people that are very invested in the stock market. And \u2018Pelosi stock tracker\u2019 is legit. Like, you could find out what she\u2019s buying and you should buy it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cShe\u2019s a really good stockbroker Rod,\u201d Rogan added sarcastically. \u201cShe\u2019s super good at it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WATCH:<\/p>\n\n\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"650\" height=\"411\" src=\"https:\/\/nachovideo.com\/embed\/3200\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier this month, a Republican senator said he\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/conservativebrief.com\/bidens-call-88254\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">believes<\/a>\u00a0that President Joe Biden\u2019s call for a ban on congressional stock trading on his way out of the White House is a \u201cdig\u201d at Pelosi, who has come under scrutiny for years over her and her husband\u2019s successful investments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI don\u2019t think (Biden) and Nancy Pelosi are getting along very well right now after Pelosi fired him from being president,\u201d Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.)&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/aldailynews.com\/tuberville-biden-call-to-end-congressional-stock-trading-a-dig-at-nancy-pelosi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">told<\/a>&nbsp;<em>Alabama Daily News<\/em>. \u201cI don\u2019t know how she was able to do that, but she convinced him to get out of the race, which he should have, but it was her.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The San Fran-based political power couple&nbsp;has achieved some of the highest stock market returns among members of Congress, with their trades reportedly yielding returns exceeding 720% over the past decade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pelosi has been hesitant to back legislation that would completely prohibit members of Congress from trading stocks. In 2021, she told reporters, \u201cWe are a free market economy,\u201d adding that members of Congress \u201cshould be able to participate in that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI think while she\u2019s laying up somewhere in Germany \u2013 she unfortunately fell and hurt her leg (and) had to have an operation \u2013 he decided while she was gone, after 50 years by the way of him being up there in Washington, D.C., (that) now it\u2019s time, as I\u2019m going out the door, to stop stock trading,\u201d Tuberville added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Alabama senator has had success of his own in the stock market, but he has repeatedly said he does not have any direct involvement in the makeup of his portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019ve said all along that I don\u2019t get anything up here that gives me an opportunity to make money on stocks any more than anybody,\u201d he told ADN. \u201cI don\u2019t do it myself, I\u2019ve got people that do it. I don\u2019t get involved in that, I don\u2019t understand what\u2019s the big deal. I guess there are people that have made money somehow, some way; I didn\u2019t come up here to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Biden expressed his support for banning congressional stock trading in an interview previewed on Tuesday, set to be released this week by a far-left labor advocacy group called More Perfect Union.<\/p>\n<div class=\"684f6003e199ca137b09540a661b4c2d\" data-index=\"2\" style=\"float: none; margin:0px 0 0px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<!-- Composite Start -->\r\n<div id=\"M940464ScriptRootC1583286\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script src=\"https:\/\/jsc.adskeeper.com\/k\/o\/kohajone.press.1583286.js\" async>\r\n<\/script>\r\n<!-- Composite End -->\r\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Top-ranked podcaster Joe Rogan and former Democratic Illinois Gov.
