Elon Musk just dropped a bombshell on the Joe Rogan Experience, confirming what many Americans have long suspected—Washington, D.C. is a cesspool of corruption, and the Democrats are the primary beneficiaries.
“I think maybe three-quarters of the graft is Democratic. I think there’s maybe 20–25% that’s Republican,” Musk revealed, exposing how the system is rigged for political elites.
“Most of the graft is going to the Democrats, but they throw some bones to the Republicans too, so then they’re in on it.”
In a shocking but unsurprising exchange, Musk and Rogan discussed the absurd wealth accumulation of members of Congress, who are somehow able to transform their modest $170,000-a-year salaries into multimillion-dollar fortunes.
Musk didn’t hold back, stating, “It’s literally impossible” for these politicians to legally amass such wealth.
The conversation inevitably turned to one of the most notorious examples of Washington corruption: former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and his husband Paul Pelosi.
It can be recalled that Paul Pelosi dumped over $500,000 worth of Visa stock just weeks before the Department of Justice slapped the financial giant with an antitrust lawsuit.
Following the lawsuit’s announcement, Visa’s stock price plummeted by 5.5%, leading to speculation about the timing of Pelosi’s stock sale.
President Donald Trump has publicly called for Nancy Pelosi to face prosecution over the transaction, suggesting that the sale was not coincidental.
“Nancy Pelosi sold vast amounts of Visa stock one day before the big lawsuit that we all read about a few days ago,” Trump said. “She should be prosecuted… Nancy Pelosi should be prosecuted for that.”
This incident is not isolated. The Pelosis have a history of fortuitously timed trades that have consistently outperformed the market, leading to widespread speculation about the use of nonpublic information for personal gain.
For instance, in 2023, their investment portfolio reportedly achieved a 65% return, significantly surpassing the S&P 500’s 24% gain.
Moreover, in 2022, Paul Pelosi purchased over $1 million in Nvidia call options just weeks before a congressional vote on substantial subsidies to the chip manufacturing industry, raising further eyebrows about potential conflicts of interest.
In the same year, Paul Pelosi dumped 20,000 shares of Google stock in December—a month before the Department of Justice and Merrick Garland filed their antitrust lawsuit.

Expose the Republicans first.
Doing this in the private sector will get you 10 years in prison.
In congress it gets you a promotion.
Elon, don’t say stuff like that.
Old Monkey Face POTUS just let her twist in the breeze. She showed some style doing her time quietly.
I just don't get it.
Wonder what kind of tats she has.
Designated Survivor episode 1?
Wrong. Do not let up Elon, the only way to survive is through victory.
Unsurprisingly, even when dabbling in financial misappropriation (which, or course, they shouldn’t be doing!)
Republicans are willing to settle for old bones, scraps and leftovers, allowing the Democrats to feast on the Fatted Calf, undisturbed in their gluttony.
The Pelosi racket.
“Nancy Pelosi sold vast amounts of Visa stock one day before the big lawsuit,” Trump said. “She should be prosecuted for that.” The Pelosi’s have a history of fortuitously timed trades that consistently outperform the market, leading to widespread speculation about the Pelosis’ use of nonpublic information for personal gain.

Designated Survivor started as a decent show and then quickly degraded into insane leftist propaganda.
We talk tough while Trump and Elon put their lives at risk.
We sat back and hid through coups, attempted hits, false charges, convictions, stolen elections, insane laws passed, statues tumbled, cities set afar...
Thank God Trump and Elon aren’t like us.
Thank God.
Horrible creatures all. We all have known that they have been feathering their nests at the expense of the United States and her citizens...we’ve known for a very long time. We just didn’t know the details. Now it’s all starting to come out thanks to Trump and team.
“I think maybe three-quarters of the graft is Democratic. I think there’s maybe 20–25% that’s Republican.”
This is only in what he has dug into so far. As soon as the DoD and the Intelligence agencies are opened up he is goin to find that this ratio will lean the other way towards 90% republicans. They all got their clubs of equal corruptness.
We can’t all be Scott Presler or Elon. But thank God they exist. And thank God millions of people voted this administration in. We did do that.
No, prosecute the Democrats first. Biggest offender first.
At first glance, that would appear to be advantageous.
Perhaps even more effective would be to present charges in pairs of Dems and R's until running out of R's, but starting with and continuing with the most important Dems.
Throw all their names in a bucket and randomly pick ‘em.
Lol.
Nazi Pelosi and her hammered husband are crooks who have been cheating their who lives. When she tore up the sheets of paper live on tv I wanted to go Elvis and shoot the damn television. Not that it would do any good, but I would have a few minutes of satisfaction, then curse the bitch some more and go buy another one.
You do see things clearly.
