Leavitt read out loud a list of trades made by Pelosi and her husband, Paul Pelosi, that she said beat out Warren Buffett and every hedge fund on Wall Street.
“The president has spoken to Senator Hawley, who called him, and the president took that call,” Leavitt said. “As the president said in the Roosevelt Room yesterday, conceptually, he of course supports the idea of ensuring that members of Congress and United States senators who are here for public service cannot enrich themselves.”
She didn’t hold back when naming names.
“And the reason that this idea—to put a ban on stock trading for members of Congress—is even a thing is because of Nancy Pelosi,” Leavitt said. “I mean, she is rightfully criticized because she makes, I think, $174,000 a year, yet she has a net worth of approximately $413 million.”
“In 2024, Nancy Pelosi’s stock portfolio—this was a fascinating statistic to me—grew 70% in one year, and her portfolio outperformed every single large hedge fund in that same year, and even more than doubled the returns of Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway.”
Leavitt said the president supports the public’s outrage.
“So I think the president stands with the American people on this. He doesn’t want to see people like Nancy Pelosi enriching themselves off of public service and ripping off their constituents in the process.”
“As for the mechanics of the legislation and how it will move forward,” she added, “the White House continues to be in discussions with our friends on Capitol Hill.”
This came after Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Missouri, found himself on the receiving end of a harsh social media post by President Donald Trump.
Hawley is sponsoring a bill to ban members of Congress from being able to trade individual stocks. An amendment to the bill would have carved out an exemption to allow the president to engage in stock trading, but Hawley joined Senate Democrats in voting “no.” That prompted Trump to blast Hawley on Truth Social, calling him a “second-tier Senator.”
Hawley described the situation as a misunderstanding, telling Fox News that the bill exempts President Trump and Vice President Vance. The language instead bans future presidents from trading stock.
Republicans also attempted to add language that would have required a report on stock trades made by former Speaker Pelosi and her husband, but Senate Democrats and Republican Hawley teamed up and defeated the move.
In an interview with reporters on Tuesday, Hawley said that the legislation has the support of House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), many Republicans, and even some Democrats. He also said Johnson told him President Donald Trump supported the original bill titled Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments (PELOSI) Act.
“Members of Congress should be fighting for the people they were elected to serve—not day trading at the expense of their constituents,” stated Hawley in April when he originally introduced the bill. “Americans have seen politician after politician turn a profit using information not available to the general public. It’s time we ban all members of Congress from trading and holding stocks and restore Americans’ trust in our nation’s legislative body.”
The PELOSI Act would prohibit members of Congress and their spouses from buying, selling, or holding individual stocks while serving in office. Instead, lawmakers would be permitted to invest in diversified mutual funds, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), or U.S. Treasury bonds.
The world of royalty and millions of fans across the globe have been left shaken after unconfirmed reports surfaced suggesting that
According to an anonymous royal insider cited by multiple online sources, the Duke of Sussex was reportedly given grave news during a private consultation with a specialist in California. The most shocking part of the alleged conversation? A chilling remark made by the doctor:
“You’ll soon be reunited with your mother.”
The quote — whether metaphorical or literal — has sent social media into a frenzy, triggering waves of concern, speculation, and heartbreak from royal watchers and mental health advocates alike.
The idea of Prince Harry being “reunited with his mother,” Princess Diana, who tragically died in 1997, evokes powerful emotions. For years, Harry has spoken openly about how her death left him emotionally wounded, shaping his decisions, including stepping back from royal duties to prioritize mental health and family.
So what does this latest report actually mean?
While no official diagnosis or confirmation has come from Prince Harry’s representatives or Buckingham Palace, online rumors suggest the Prince may be facing a
serious neurological or cardiac condition. Some speculate that the doctor’s words may not refer to a terminal illness but rather reflect the deep emotional trauma Harry still carries.
Mental health professionals have offered their own interpretations, warning that such a phrase — if truly spoken — could be a sign of
severe psychological distress, perhaps even suicidal ideation. Dr. Emily Norwood, a clinical psychologist in Los Angeles, said, “If these words were directed at Harry, the concern wouldn’t just be physical — it could suggest an emotional collapse triggered by unresolved grief.”
The news comes at a time when Prince Harry has already been under enormous pressure. His strained relationship with the royal family, the ongoing public scrutiny, and the burden of maintaining his and Meghan’s life in the U.S. have all taken a visible toll.
Public reaction has been swift and emotional. Thousands have taken to social media under the hashtag #WeStandWithHarry, urging compassion and hoping the story is either false or taken out of context. One user wrote,
“He lost his mother too soon. We can’t lose him too. Someone please make sure he’s okay.”
Meanwhile, close friends of the Duke have reportedly rallied around him. Meghan Markle, ever his protective partner, is said to be “closely monitoring the situation” and prioritizing Harry’s well-being above all else.
Whether the doctor’s haunting words were a medical prognosis, a metaphor, or just a tragic misunderstanding, one thing is clear: Prince Harry is still living in the long shadow of Princess Diana’s death
, and the world is once again reminded that behind the crown lies a man still navigating unimaginable pain.
