Joe Rogan Doesn’t Mince Words, Levels Nancy Pelosi for ‘Insider Trading’ – Opinion

In its efforts to bring Joe Rogan down, the left is attempting to sabotage their dominant narratives.

But it says something about Rogan that he’s not afraid to continue to take on topics that might set them off — such as going after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and her husband for their profiting from stock options while they are in the position of promoting and regulating things that will affect the value of those options.

“They know laws that are going to be put into place,” Rogan said on his Spotify podcast on Thursday.

Rogan then noted that Pelosi’s husband, venture capitalist Paul Pelosi, owns more than $2.5 million in shares of Tesla.

“How is that not insider training?” he asked his guest, stand-up comedian and fellow podcaster Greg Fitzsimmons.

“If you know someone is going to sign a bill and that bill is going to be a massive boost to the electrical vehicle industry…and before that bill is signed you buy a f-ckload of stock in electrical vehicles…and the next day the stock goes up,” he said.

“How is that legal?” Rogan asked. Then he noted that Nancy Pelosi, one of Congress’ wealthiest Members of Congress.

The thing is, they are allowed to buy stocks now as long as they aren’t using private information. But when they are behind pushing things like electrical vehicles, they may know public things are coming and that wouldn’t necessarily break the law, yet still be responsible for making those things happen from which they would then benefit.

Paul Pelosi, Nancy Pelosi’s husband, had invested up to $1 million in call options for Tesla stock in December, about a month before Joe Biden mandated that all federal vehicles transition to electric.

Paul Pelosi, a Congressional disclosure filing showed that he purchased 2,500 shares Tesla stock in March 2017 by exercising 25 call options with a strike price $500. These call options expired the day after.

The Tesla stock was worth about $2.2 million at the time of purchase, but Pelosi has already generated a windfall given the electric car firm’s recent success.

The Tesla purchase marked the latest major investment for Pelosi’s husband, who previously scooped up call options in tech stocks such as Google, Salesforce, Roblox and Disney, The Post reported in December.

The Post reported also that Pelosis has made as high as $30,000,000 from betting on Big Tech companies through January. Insiders claim that the speaker has been slow to pass legislation which would create new regulations for the tech industry.

How did the Pelosi Team respond to this concern? Her spokesperson, Drew Hamill, treats Americans questioning this as though they’re stupid.

She “does not own any stocks,” he claimed. “As you can see from the required disclosures, with which the Speaker fully cooperates, these transactions are marked ‘SP’ for Spouse. The Speaker has no prior knowledge or subsequent involvement in any transactions.”

Ok, so if her husband is technically the buyer, she doesn’t benefit? Does this man want to make us believe that? And they wonder why people don’t believe anything they have to say. While it may not have inside information, how can it be right to offer buying options while she is directly involved with the legislation that affects the price? This is the response of her spokesperson.
