Pelosi Defends Impeachment of ‘Rogue President’ Trump-lllllllllllll
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said America’s founders anticipated the rise of “a rogue president” but not “a rogue Senate,” in an interview with USA Today’s Susan Page, where she defended her record and again accused former President Donald Trump of “cruelty and corruption.”
“I’m really not here to talk about the incoherence, the cruelty, the corruption of the current president of the United States,” Pelosi said, brushing aside questions about Trump’s renewed political dominance.
Pelosi, 85, who announced she will retire from Congress at the end of her term in January 2027, told USA Today her proudest legislative accomplishment was passing the Affordable Care Act, while her greatest disappointment was failing to enact gun control laws.
She also revisited the Trump impeachments she oversaw, saying both were justified and grounded in constitutional duty.
“The person most responsible for impeaching President Trump when I was speaker was President Trump. He gave us no choice,” Pelosi said. “If he crosses the border again. But that’s not an incidental thing. There has to be cause. There has to be reason. We had review. This was a very serious, historic thing.”
Pelosi argued that the framers of the Constitution anticipated executive overreach — but failed to foresee a complicit upper chamber.
“Our founders knew that there could be a rogue president, and that’s why they put impeachment in the Constitution,” she said. “They didn’t know there’d be a rogue president at the same time a rogue Senate that didn’t have the courage to do the right thing. It was bipartisan in the Senate, but it wasn’t enough.”
When asked if Democrats should consider impeaching Trump again should they regain control of the House, Pelosi stopped short of endorsing such a move but left the door open.
“There has to be cause,” she said, adding that the constitutional standard must always be met.
She went on to accuse Trump of “inciting an insurrection” on January 6, 2021 — a claim repeatedly disputed by Trump and his allies — and criticized his use of presidential pardon powers.
Trump’s supporters have countered that his pardons fall well within presidential authority and that he was the first president to call for National Guard deployment to protect the Capitol before the 2021 unrest.
Pelosi’s remarks about “rogue government” drew attention not only for their expediency, but also for what many saw as deflection from growing scrutiny over her own financial record.
A recent New York Post investigation revealed that Pelosi and her husband, venture capitalist Paul Pelosi, made more than $130 million in stock profits during her 37 years in Congress — a return of roughly 16,930%, outpacing every major stock index and even the performance of Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway over the same period.
Before entering Congress in 1987, the Pelosis reported between $610,000 and $785,000 in stock holdings. Today, their estimated net worth now exceeds $280 million, alongside luxury properties in San Francisco and Napa Valley valued at millions more.
Financial disclosures show frequent, high-return options trading in stocks closely tied to industries affected by congressional action — including semiconductor legislation and federal infrastructure investments. Critics, including Republicans and government ethics watchdogs, have long accused Pelosi of benefiting from insider knowledge.
“Nancy Pelosi’s true legacy is becoming the most successful insider trader in American history,” said Kiersten Pels, spokesperson for the Republican National Committee. “If anyone else had turned $785,000 into $133.7 million with better returns than Warren Buffett, they’d be retiring behind bars.”
Despite her defense of constitutional principles in the Trump era, Pelosi’s critics argue that her rhetoric about “rogue presidents” and “rogue Senates” rings hollow when juxtaposed with her own financial entanglements and partisan record.
“She’s projecting,” said one senior GOP aide. “Every time Pelosi accuses someone else of abusing power, it’s because she’s worried people will start asking how she made her fortune while running Congress.”
BANNED' - Clinton Judge Reads Her Verdict - President Donald Trump Has Been Informed That He Just Beat Gavin Newsom...
JUDICIAL RECKONING
The return of national sovereignty and administrative lethality reached a new milestone this Thursday, April 9, 2026. A blockbuster ruling in Los Angeles has left the DNC establishment and globalist elite reeling.
A federal judge issued a preliminary injunction against California’s controversial "No Secret Police Act," blocking the state from prohibiting ICE agents from wearing masks. Judge Christina Snyder ruled the law unconstitutional, marking a decisive victory for President Donald J. Trump and the Department of Justice.
The court affirmed the Constitution’s Supremacy Clause, stating California cannot discriminate against federal officers while exempting its own law enforcement. Attorney General Pamela Bondi praised the ruling, emphasizing the administration’s zero-tolerance stance on harassment of federal agents.
This decision reflects the 2026 mandate: a legal framework prioritizing the safety of American officers over the sanctuary policies pushed by Governor Gavin Newsom. It signals a sweeping rollback of state overreach in immigration enforcement.
Meanwhile, in Texas, a federal jury delivered historic terrorism convictions against nine members of a radical antifa cell. The group was found guilty for a violent 2025 attack on an ICE detention facility that left a police officer shot in the neck.
Ringleader Benjamin Song faces potential life imprisonment after evidence proved the attack was a coordinated assault using explosives and rifles—not the “noise demonstration” the defense claimed. Prosecutors called the verdict a landmark affirmation of Trump’s domestic terror designation.
With Kash Patel at the FBI and Todd Blanche at the DOJ, the dismantling of extremist cells has accelerated. Federal agencies continue to secure detention centers like Prairieland against those attempting to destabilize the republic.
Governor Gavin Newsom attempted to spin the court ruling as a “win,” citing the upheld “No Vigilantes Act.” But the truth remains: the centerpiece of his anti-ICE agenda—the “No Secret Police Act”—has been effectively struck down.
The defeat exposes the weakening foundation of California’s sanctuary policies. While Sacramento prioritizes the “civil rights” of illegal aliens, the Trump administration is defending the constitutional rights of federal officers.
The week closes as a sweeping administrative triumph for the Trump-GOP platform. From Los Angeles courtrooms to Texas jury boxes, real results—not rhetoric—are forging the 2026 midterm shield.
With 5% GDP growth and a secure border, the nation is reclaiming its stability and sovereignty. America moves forward with vigilance, resolve, and a renewed commitment to law and order.
God bless the USA—and the leaders who refuse to bow to the swamp or the radical mob.
oFar Left 'Squad' Member Learns Her Fate As Her Primary Election is Called
Washington D.C. — The far-left “Squad” took another massive hit Tuesday night as Missouri Democrat Rep. Cori Bush was soundly defeated in her primary by challenger Wesley Bell, who led by double digits with 54.9% to Bush’s 41.8%.
Bush, one of the most extreme voices in Congress, joins Rep. Jamaal Bowman as the second Squad member to lose her seat this cycle. Her defeat is a clear rejection of the radical socialist, anti-police, pro-Hamas agenda she has pushed since entering Congress in 2021.
Bush rose to prominence after participating in the Ferguson riots and has spent years promoting false narratives about Michael Brown while calling for defunding the police — even as violent crime soared in her St. Louis district. She has repeatedly aligned herself with pro-Hamas protesters, blamed Israel for the October 7 massacre, and faced controversy over allegedly funneling thousands of campaign dollars to her husband for “security services” while demanding less police protection for her constituents.
Republicans celebrated the win with well-deserved mockery. Pro-Trump comedian Terrance K. Williams posted:
“A ‘BLACK JOB’ IS SOMETHING CORI BUSH DOES NOT HAVE. OH HAPPY DAY! She is the second Squad member to lose her seat! I can’t wait until they are all gone.”
Florida GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz, who served with Bush on the House Judiciary Committee, sarcastically noted:
“I will miss Cori Bush missing every committee meeting.”
Students for Trump co-founder Ryan Fournier added:
“The Squad’s Cori Bush has LOST her primary. Join me in saying GOOD RIDDANCE! Hamas might be hiring, Cori!”
Even actor Michael Rapaport, a vocal Israel supporter, celebrated:
“Tonight at the rally they said let’s bring back ‘JOY’ to politics and boom CORI BUSH is done with Politics…. I feel JOY all of a sudden.”
This is the second straight blow to the radical Squad. Jamaal Bowman lost his primary earlier after endorsing pro-Hamas demonstrators on college campuses. Both Bush and Bowman blamed their defeats on pro-Israel funding from AIPAC rather than admitting the truth: their extreme, anti-American, and anti-Israel positions have become toxic to voters.
The radical left’s Squad is crumbling because the American people are rejecting their agenda of defunding police, embracing socialism, supporting radical Islamists, and putting foreign interests above American citizens. Voters want secure borders, safe streets, strong economy, and leaders who put America First — not performative radicals who miss committee meetings and push policies that hurt their own districts.
Under President Donald J. Trump’s leadership, the Republican Party is becoming the party of working Americans, law and order, and common sense. Meanwhile, the Democrat Party continues its death spiral — hemorrhaging voters, losing favorability, and watching its most extreme members get rejected at the ballot box.
Cori Bush’s defeat is not just a loss for one radical congresswoman. It is a rejection of the entire Squad’s toxic ideology. The American people are waking up and choosing sanity over socialism, strength over weakness, and America First over America Last.
More Squad members are on the ballot soon. The trend is clear: radicalism is losing, and the America First movement is winning.
