Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Well, it's official. Donald Trump is now calling for Nancy
- 0:05Speaker 1: Pelosi investigation over insider trading, calling what she has done disgraceful.
- 0:12Speaker 1: President Trump calling for that investigation into his old foe
- 0:17Speaker 1: when asked about a bill a band stock trading among
- 0:19Speaker 1: members of Congress, what I do think is that representing
- 0:23Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi should be investigated. The President made it very
- 0:27Speaker 1: clear with that statement. Here's a little bit more of
- 0:30Speaker 1: the present in his own words at the White House
- 0:33Speaker 1: when he was asked about this from a member of
- 0:35Speaker 1: the media.
- 0:36Speaker 2: Nancy Pelosi became rich by having inside information. She made
- 0:42Speaker 2: a fortune with her husband, and I think that's disgraceful.
- 0:46Speaker 3: So in that sense, I'd like it, but I'd have to.
- 0:48Speaker 2: Really see the you know, I study the things very carefully,
- 0:51Speaker 2: and this just happened, so I'll take a look at it.
- 0:53Speaker 3: But conceptually I like it.
- 0:55Speaker 2: And what I do think is Nancy Pelosi should be
- 0:59Speaker 2: investing because what she has the highest return of anybody
- 1:04Speaker 2: practically in the history.
- 1:06Speaker 3: Of Wall Street save a few. And how did that happen.
- 1:11Speaker 2: It happened by she knows exactly what's gonna happen, what's
- 1:14Speaker 2: going to be announced.
- 1:14Speaker 3: You'd buy stock and then the stock.
- 1:16Speaker 2: Goes up after the announcements made and she had to
- 1:19Speaker 2: be investigated.
- 1:21Speaker 1: She ought to be investigated. Now the President also making
- 1:25Speaker 1: this into an issue because yes, Nancy Pelosi is becoming
- 1:28Speaker 1: insanely rich while being on a quote government salary. How
- 1:33Speaker 1: has she pulled that off? Well? Nancy Pelosi went on
- 1:36Speaker 1: CNN with Jake Tapper for a quote one on one
- 1:40Speaker 1: with this former Speaker of the House, and she was
- 1:43Speaker 1: asked about it. It didn't go well as she tries
- 1:45Speaker 1: to dodge the questions.
- 1:47Speaker 4: And President Trump mentioned you, and he made an allegation
- 1:51Speaker 4: about your investments. I want to roll that clip and
- 1:53Speaker 4: then give you a chance to respond. Let me just
- 1:55Speaker 4: read what he said. I'm sorry that we had some
- 1:57Speaker 4: sort of techniclistion Nancy Pelosi became rich.
- 1:58Speaker 5: I might you have to read that. We're here to
- 2:00Speaker 5: talk about the sixtieth anniversary of Medicaid. That's what I
- 2:04Speaker 5: agreed to come to talk to. Yeah, but I wanted
- 2:06Speaker 5: to that means in the election.
- 2:07Speaker 4: I wanted to give you a chances to respond. He
- 2:09Speaker 4: accused you of insider trading. What's your response to that?
- 2:12Speaker 5: That's very ridiculous. In fact, I very much support the
- 2:17Speaker 5: trading of members of Congress. Not that I think anybody's
- 2:20Speaker 5: doing anything wrong. If they are, they are prosecuted and
- 2:23Speaker 5: they go to jail. But because of the competency, it
- 2:28Speaker 5: stills in the American people don't worry about this. But
- 2:31Speaker 5: I have no concern about the obvious investments that had
- 2:37Speaker 5: been made over time.
- 2:38Speaker 3: I'm not into it.
- 2:39Speaker 5: My husband is, but it isn't anything to do with
- 2:42Speaker 5: anything insider. But the President has his own exposure, so
- 2:46Speaker 5: he's always projecting. He's always projecting, and let's not give
- 2:50Speaker 5: him any more time on that.
- 2:51Speaker 2: Please.
- 2:52Speaker 5: We're going forward here, and I'm very proud of my family.
- 2:56Speaker 5: And while he might make fun of us, while somebody
- 2:59Speaker 5: inspired hired by him, breaks into our home and HiT's
- 3:02Speaker 5: my husband in a deadly fashion. HiT's my husband over
- 3:05Speaker 5: the head, and he thinks that's a riot, I'd rather
- 3:07Speaker 5: not go into some of my other complaints about him
- 3:10Speaker 5: right now, rather to talk about the sixtieth anniversary of
- 3:14Speaker 5: Medicaid and Medicare. What a triumph, a great pillar of
- 3:18Speaker 5: economic and health security for the American people. We had
- 3:23Speaker 5: over the weekend, carrying across generations, initiative of a sixty
- 3:28Speaker 5: hour a sixty hour vigil of all of us taking turns, myself,
- 3:34Speaker 5: my daughter, my granddaughter, and all the rest taking turns
- 3:36Speaker 5: over sixty hours to tell stories of how all of this, well,
- 3:42Speaker 5: all this means in people's lives.
- 3:44Speaker 3: We since.
- 3:46Speaker 5: Just since all this has emerged, have had three hundred
- 3:49Speaker 5: thousand calls from our Californians, two people in public health
- 3:54Speaker 5: districts for them to call the constituents to call their
- 3:59Speaker 5: They're Republican members of Congress who have voted for this shameful, shameful, dirty, filthy, stinking, lousy, rotten,
- 4:08Speaker 5: anything but beautiful act. And now we're engaged in the
- 4:12Speaker 5: Save Medicaid summer. So today is the sixtieth energy It's
- 4:18Speaker 5: something to be very very proud of. And instead of
- 4:21Speaker 5: what the Republicans are doing to deprive people of access
- 4:25Speaker 5: to healthcare who need it so badly, people with disabilities
- 4:28Speaker 5: who need it so bad for the children, let me
- 4:30Speaker 5: ask you need it so badly?
- 4:32Speaker 1: Pulling over the by the way, What an amazing answer
- 4:35Speaker 1: there from Nancy Pelosi, Right, She tries to clearly dodge
- 4:39Speaker 1: the question insert trading, then says I'm not into it.
- 4:42Speaker 1: My husband is. Let me say that quote again I'm
- 4:46Speaker 1: not into it. My husband is. But this isn't anything
- 4:51Speaker 1: to do with anything with anything insider. He's just apparently
- 4:55Speaker 1: really good at making millions and millions and millions and
- 4:58Speaker 1: millions of dollars off of them for out that he's gotten,
- 5:01Speaker 1: not from his wife, right. It just he's just the
- 5:03Speaker 1: best trader that the world's ever seen. That's what Nancy
- 5:07Speaker 1: Pelosi Pelosi wants you to believe. And as she said there,
- 5:11Speaker 1: this is ridiculous. In fact, it's very much. I support
- 5:15Speaker 1: the stop that trading and members of Congress, not that
- 5:17Speaker 1: I think anybody's doing anything wrong. Really, you don't think
- 5:19Speaker 1: anbody's doing anything wrong. So when you guys are making
- 5:22Speaker 1: returns that the best hedge fund managers in the world
- 5:26Speaker 1: have never been able to achieve on a yearly basis,
- 5:31Speaker 1: you want the American people to believe that you're doing
- 5:33Speaker 1: nothing wrong. Nancy Pelosi's trades have outpaced the best portfolio
- 5:41Speaker 1: managers in the entire world, not in the US, in
- 5:44Speaker 1: the entire world. The percentage gains that she has seen
- 5:47Speaker 1: has been the most incredible thing, to the point where
- 5:52Speaker 1: there are people that were in the ivy leagues that
- 5:55Speaker 1: decided to do Nancy Pelosi trade trackers and create algorith them,
- 6:00Speaker 1: some programs that would mimic her trades. In fact, I
- 6:05Speaker 1: know people that made more money trading off of Nancy
- 6:08Speaker 1: Pelosi's picks than they did with some of the best
- 6:12Speaker 1: fund managers in America, And they're like, why not, we
- 6:16Speaker 1: can find out how she trades. There are computer programs
- 6:20Speaker 1: that actually will mimic her trades as soon as they
- 6:23Speaker 1: become public. So you look at what she just said here,
- 6:27Speaker 1: and I think it's very clear number one, that she's lying.
- 6:32Speaker 1: Number two, she says she has nothing to do with this.
- 6:35Speaker 1: That's a lie. And three, how the hell does her
- 6:40Speaker 1: husband get all these trades right that have everything to
- 6:44Speaker 1: do with congress and legislation and knowing what's going to
- 6:50Speaker 1: happen before it even happens. I go back to President Trump,
- 6:54Speaker 1: what do you say at the beginning.
- 6:56Speaker 2: Nancy Pelosi became rich by having inside information. She made
- 7:02Speaker 2: a fortune with her husband, and I think that's disgraceful.
- 7:06Speaker 2: So in that sense, I'd like it, but I'd have
- 7:07Speaker 2: to really see the you know, I study these things
- 7:10Speaker 2: very carefully, and this just happened, so I'll take a
- 7:13Speaker 2: look at it.
- 7:13Speaker 3: But conceptually, I like it. And what I do.
- 7:17Speaker 2: Think is Nancy Pelosi should be investigated because what she
- 7:21Speaker 2: has the highest return of anybody practically in.
- 7:25Speaker 3: The history of Wall Street save a few. And how
- 7:30Speaker 3: did that happen.
- 7:31Speaker 2: It happened by she knows exactly what's going to happen,
- 7:33Speaker 2: what's going.
- 7:34Speaker 3: To be announced, You buy stock, and then the stock.
- 7:36Speaker 2: Goes up after the announcements made, and she had to
- 7:39Speaker 2: be investigated.
- 7:41Speaker 1: And she ought to be investigated. Donald Trump saying just
- 7:45Speaker 1: look at it, see what you find, see what happens,
- 7:48Speaker 1: but clearly saying it's the sick and tired Nancy Pelosi
- 7:51Speaker 1: becoming rich from insider trading information and it's made her
- 7:56Speaker 1: a fortune. All Right, I want to take a moment
- 7:59Speaker 1: talk about the economy. You've been seeing what's happening on
- 8:01Speaker 1: Wall Street. You've seen what's been happening with interest rates,
- 8:04Speaker 1: and you've probably seen gold prices hitting all time record highs.
- 8:09Speaker 1: Why because there is uncertainty all over the world right now,
- 8:13Speaker 1: and when there is uncertain times, you want real answers
- 8:16Speaker 1: about your financial stability. Well, at Kurt Elliott Precious Metals,

- 10:17Speaker 1: Let me just say one other thing real quick. Nancy
- 10:19Speaker 1: Pelosi's current government salaries one hundred and seventy four thousand
- 10:22Speaker 1: dollars a year. Okay, that's the standard pay for rank
- 10:25Speaker 1: and file members of Congress, including she may get some
- 10:28Speaker 1: extra bonus money for party leadership, et cetera, but that's
- 10:31Speaker 1: the base pay. If you look at what has been reported,
- 10:37Speaker 1: financial disclosures show that her husband earned between seven point
- 10:40Speaker 1: eight million and forty two point five million and twenty
- 10:43Speaker 1: twenty four from stock trades, boosting their estimated net worth
- 10:47Speaker 1: to as much as four hundred and thirteen million. That
- 10:50Speaker 1: is a figure that's been cited by many outlets, including
- 10:53Speaker 1: The Times. Now Wikipedia has it this way. Their portfolio
- 10:57Speaker 1: reportedly delivered a fifty four percent return in twenty twenty four.
- 11:01Speaker 1: Substantially outperforming major hedge funds and the twenty five percent
- 11:04Speaker 1: game in the S and P five hundred. They doubled
- 11:07Speaker 1: it every trade they seem to get right. So you
- 11:12Speaker 1: make a one hundred and seventy four thousand, The question
- 11:14Speaker 1: is how did you get it to a point where
- 11:16Speaker 1: apparently it's almost five hundred million. That's why the president's
- 11:23Speaker 1: asking questions. We've been telling you for quite some time
- 11:27Speaker 1: that you know there's a guy by the name of
- 11:29Speaker 1: George Soros that loves the back of legal immigrants invading
- 11:33Speaker 1: this country, and Democrats are more than happy to take
- 11:36Speaker 1: George Soros's money and get elected because of him. Yes,
- 11:41Speaker 1: George Soros is the dark money, and we now have
- 11:44Speaker 1: more exposure than ever before to exactly where his cash
- 11:48Speaker 1: has been going. In fact, new data is now showing
- 11:51Speaker 1: that George Soros linked firm has teamed up with Democrats
- 11:56Speaker 1: directly to then sue Donald Trump over the ten Senators
- 12:00Speaker 1: that are holding illegal aliens. A group of House Democrats,
- 12:05Speaker 1: represented by illegal firm with deep ties to Alex and
- 12:09Speaker 1: George Soros's Open Society Foundation has officially sued Donald Trump's administration,
- 12:14Speaker 1: claiming that the Department of Homeland Security is obstructing Congressional
- 12:19Speaker 1: oversight of immigration detention centers. Now, this is being led
- 12:24Speaker 1: by Representative Jamie Raskin's Democrat from Maryland. The Democrat is
- 12:30Speaker 1: claiming that Trump's DHS is blocking them from accessing detention
- 12:34Speaker 1: centers holding illegal aliens and preventing them from getting information
- 12:38Speaker 1: on illegal alien detainees. Now, among the claims in the lawsuits,
- 12:42Speaker 1: the members of Congress are unable to verify reports that
- 12:47Speaker 1: the DHS is even violating the fundamental quote rights of
- 12:51Speaker 1: illegal aliens. According to Raskin, now the Trump administration is
- 12:56Speaker 1: systematically violating. He says, our legal rights as members of
- 13:00Speaker 1: Congress to conduct oversight at Department of Home and Security
- 13:03Speaker 1: facilities is what he's saying in the news statement. Now,
- 13:06Speaker 1: this blockade of Congress, he says, is deliberately interfering with
- 13:10Speaker 1: our congressional duty to perform oversight of the immigration system.
- 13:16Speaker 1: It is designed to stop us from checking out reports
- 13:19Speaker 1: of inhumane treatment and denial of fundamental rights to immigrants
- 13:24Speaker 1: in attention. President Trump and Secretary Nome believe they can
- 13:29Speaker 1: block scrutiny of their lawless immigration enforcement sweep. He's saying,
- 13:34Speaker 1: it's against the law getting illegal immigrants not a joke
- 13:38Speaker 1: by closing out members of Congress, but these brazen attempts
- 13:42Speaker 1: to rebuff us in stark violation of federal law. He's
- 13:46Speaker 1: now claiming only deepens are resolved to get information to
- 13:50Speaker 1: the American people. By the way, the American people know
- 13:52Speaker 1: exactly what's going on. They voted for it, they're in
- 13:54Speaker 1: favor of it, they support it. And the presence showing
- 13:57Speaker 1: you what he's doing every single day, findingly immigrants the
- 14:00Speaker 1: most violent among us, and getting them out of this country.
- 14:04Speaker 1: It's amazing that he goes on to say, quote, We're
- 14:07Speaker 1: going to continue to show up and demand the transparency
- 14:11Speaker 1: and access that the law guarantees. In President Trump, we
- 14:15Speaker 1: will see you in court, of course, emphasis added there
- 14:20Speaker 1: in the letter. Now, this has all the radical the
- 14:23Speaker 1: Dems involved, for example, Benny Thompson, Robert Garcia, Jason Crowe,
- 14:30Speaker 1: Dan Goldman, Jimmy Gomez, all of them are in this
- 14:34Speaker 1: lawsuit that they have joined. So the Democrats are represented
- 14:39Speaker 1: in the lawsuit by lawyers from Democracy Forward and American Oversight.
- 14:45Speaker 1: This is where you follow the money. Democracy Forward partners
- 14:50Speaker 1: with several left wing organizations, including the Center for American Progress,
- 14:56Speaker 1: which receives millions and millions and millions in funding from
- 15:03Speaker 1: Soros's Open Society Foundation every single year. Democracy Forward is
- 15:08Speaker 1: behind many recent lawsuits against the Trump administration, including an
- 15:13Speaker 1: attempt to ban federal immigration agents from arresting illegal aliens
- 15:18Speaker 1: at courthouses and trying to stop Trump also from using
- 15:22Speaker 1: the Alien Enemies Act to deport illegal aliens classified as
- 15:26Speaker 1: terrorists by the State Department. Now this case, they've also
- 15:30Speaker 1: made sure it was in the United States District Court
- 15:32Speaker 1: for the District of Columbia. Why it's a very liberal court,
- 15:35Speaker 1: we all know that. But what we are finding out
- 15:38Speaker 1: now is that none of this is organic. It's all
- 15:42Speaker 1: pre planned, and it's all being done to stop the
- 15:46Speaker 1: president from doing his job and stop the American people
- 15:49Speaker 1: from getting what they were promised by the President when
- 15:51Speaker 1: they voted for him, which was law and order instead
- 15:55Speaker 1: of the radical open border policy and looking the other
- 15:58Speaker 1: way on all immigration laws. And Alex Soros and the Democrats,
- 16:02Speaker 1: it's pretty clear they want to make sure that this
- 16:07Speaker 1: is something that explodes. They want to stop the president,
- 16:11Speaker 1: and they want to use the court system to do it. Now,
- 16:14Speaker 1: we also know that Soros's network is behind a new
- 16:18Speaker 1: lawsuit separate from the one I just told you about,
- 16:21Speaker 1: claiming that Trump is violating the rights of illegal aliens
- 16:24Speaker 1: detained at quote Alligator Alcatraz. Yes, Soros's team all over it.
- 16:30Speaker 1: The left wing organization linked financially to George and Alexander
- 16:33Speaker 1: his son. Sorous's foundation have also sued Donald Trump and
- 16:38Speaker 1: the administration claiming that illegal aliens at Florida's Alligator Alcatraz
- 16:43Speaker 1: Attention Center are having their First and Fifth Amendment rights violated.
- 16:47Speaker 1: The lawsuit from the American Civil Liberties Union known as
- 16:50Speaker 1: the ACLU, representing a handful of non government organizations known
- 16:55Speaker 1: as NGOs and illegal aliens, is now asking a federal
- 16:59Speaker 1: joe to issue a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction
- 17:04Speaker 1: against Donald Trump's Department of Home Insecurity for quote allegedly
- 17:09Speaker 1: violating the so called due process rights of Alligator Alcatraz detainees. Quote.
- 17:14Speaker 1: This facility opens another dark chapter in our nation's history.
- 17:18Speaker 1: Its very existence is predicated on our country's basis impulses,
- 17:25Speaker 1: and shows the dangers of unchecked governmental authority when combined
- 17:30Speaker 1: with unbridled hate, is what the ACLU said in their statement.
- 17:34Speaker 1: They say it represents an attack on common decency, and
- 17:37Speaker 1: in this case, the treatment of detained people is also unlawful.
- 17:41Speaker 1: The US Constitution does not allow the government to simply
- 17:44Speaker 1: lock people away without any ability to communicate with counsel
- 17:48Speaker 1: or to petition the court for release from custody. The
- 17:52Speaker 1: government may not trample on these most fundamental protections for
- 17:56Speaker 1: people held in its custody. Now, the laws TU claims
- 18:00Speaker 1: the Trump administration also violated the First and Fifth Amendment
- 18:04Speaker 1: rights of about seven hundred legal aliens currently held at
- 18:07Speaker 1: Alligator Alcatraz by allegedly banning in person legal visitation, confidential communications,
- 18:14Speaker 1: and confidential exchanges of documents. By the way, all of
- 18:18Speaker 1: that is a lie. The ACLU lawyers have also said
- 18:21Speaker 1: that Alligator Alcatraz is cruel because of its proximity. This
- 18:26Speaker 1: is not a joke to alligators, pythons, mosquitoes, and swamp planned.
- 18:32Speaker 1: Aside from the ACLU, the ACLU of Florida and Americans
- 18:36Speaker 1: for Immigration Justice are involved in the lawsuits representing such
- 18:41Speaker 1: organizations and also the illegal aliens now. While Americans for
- 18:47Speaker 1: Immigrant Justice accepted twenty five thousand grands from sources Open
- 18:52Speaker 1: Society Foundation seventeen the ACLU has raked in millions and
- 18:58Speaker 1: millions from the Source network over the years. For example,
- 19:02Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three alone, the ACLU Foundation of Florida
- 19:05Speaker 1: received more than a quarter of a million dollars from
- 19:08Speaker 1: the Open Society Foundation. In twenty twenty two, ACLU took
- 19:13Speaker 1: a whopping fifteen million from the Open Society Foundation. So
- 19:18Speaker 1: if you want to know who's doing the dirty work
- 19:21Speaker 1: for the Soros, it's clearly these liberal groups.
- 19:24Speaker 3: Now.
- 19:24Speaker 1: Most recently, groups linked to the Source network also filed
- 19:28Speaker 1: as I mentioned that lawsuit prevent immigration and Customs enforcement
- 19:32Speaker 1: agents from even arresting illegal aliens at court houses. Also
- 19:38Speaker 1: this month, Source link groups while the lawsuits stout the
- 19:41Speaker 1: Department Home in Security from ending temporary protection status for
- 19:45Speaker 1: immigrants from Honduras and Karagua and Nepaul. So if you
- 19:50Speaker 1: want to know where the money's coming from and the
- 19:52Speaker 1: lawsuits are coming from, it's simple. The Democratic Party has
- 19:56Speaker 1: been weaponized with the millions of dollars coming from George Soros,
- 20:01Speaker 1: his son and their Quote Foundation. Make sure you take
