White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt rocked the halls of Congress yesterday, declaring Nancy Pelosi as the driving force behind President Trump’s proposed ban on lawmakers trading stocks. Leavitt blast the former speaker’s controversial portfolio gains during her tenure, calling them “proof our system needs fixing now.” Trump vowed he will backing sweeping reforms to “stop the swamp in Washington from getting richer off insider deals.”
Pelosi’s stock portfolio reportedly outperformed some of the wealthiest investors, raising eyebrows. Critics ask how a career politician could accumulate such wealth without inside information. Leavitt searingly said, “Pelosi’s profits made this ban a necessity – no more Jedi mind tricks convincing Americans your above corruption.”
Democrats suddenly remembered their moral compass after years blocking similar legislation. They’re now whining about Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s stock moves during market dips caused by Trump’s tough tariff policies. “They avoided action until their own got caught in their wake,” Leavitt warned, exposing their political opportunism.
Pelosi spent years squashing stock ban bills behind closed doors. She only publicly changed tunes after Trump threw down the gauntlet. “Her hypocrisy stinks like Swamp runoff,” insisted Leavitt. “For Pelosi, stock trading was a golden goose until it became a political liability.”
Greene’s trades just give Democrats ammo in their relentless anti-Trump crusade. “Their outrage rings hollow,” Leavitt shot back. “They’d rather Harangue conservatives than clean up Nancy’s mess – that’s not leadership, that’s just louder whining.”
Bipartisan efforts, including Rep. Seth Magaziner’s (D-RI) and Rep. Chip Roy’s (R-TX) divestment bill, still linger in dust. “Pass it already if you’ve got the guts!” Leavitt dared lawmakers. “But they prefer finger-pointing over fixing problems.”
When pushed, Leavitt made one thing clear: “Trump sides with working Americans – not power brokers gaming the system.” His ban plan is about “restoring fairness, period.” She vowed no stone will be left unturned – starting with Pelosi’s questionable windfall. Unlike the Democrats’ spin-and-delay tactics, Trump’s solution is simple: “You get to serve the people or serve Wall Street. Not both.”
Leavitt closed with a warning to lawmakers: “The era of silent enrichment is over. If members can’t do the job without sneaking into a blessed stock exchange, then they shouldn’t be here.” For conservatives, this isn’t about partisanship – it’s about ending the elite’s rigged game and making D.C. work for the folks who pay the bills.
