Conservative comedian Alex Strenger stirred up quite the scene when he confronted former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi during a book signing event in Fort Worth, Texas.

Pelosi, who was promoting her new book The Art of Power, found herself the target of Strenger’s antics, which he captured on video and posted to X (formerly known as Twitter) for the world to see, as reported by the New York Post.

Strenger, posing as a Democrat, sauntered up to Pelosi’s signing table wearing a COVID mask and a Bernie Sanders cap—an outfit that helped him blend in with the crowd. He introduced himself as “Noah,” claiming to be a candidate from UTA.

Pretending to heap praise on Pelosi, he gushed, “I want to say how much I appreciate your fierce, staunch defending of democracy. It really means so, so much, you know?”

But the sarcasm didn’t end there. Strenger quickly pivoted, voicing his “fears” about Donald Trump’s potential return to the White House.

“Honestly, the only chance we have is for Donald Trump to spend the rest of his life in prison,” Strenger said, to which Pelosi heartily agreed.

Then came the kicker. Strenger leaned in and asked the question we all wish someone would ask: “What stocks should I buy, Nancy? You’re the greatest options trader of all time!”

The jab was clear—Pelosi and her husband’s eyebrow-raising stock trades have long been a sore spot, with many pointing out how conveniently timed they seem given her position in Congress.

Before security could haul him away, Strenger kept up the charade, loudly remarking, “The police are an instrumental institution of white supremacy and racism. I don’t understand why they are even here at all. They should be defunded.”

He continued pressing Pelosi on her finances, saying, “You make six figures a year in Congress and have a hundred million dollar net worth. Don’t y’all want to know what stocks you should buy? ”

Strenger’s quip wasn’t just for laughs—his comments highlight a serious issue.

Pelosi’s husband, Paul, has made millions from stock trades that coincidentally aligned with legislative actions. His high-profile investments in companies like Microsoft and Nvidia raised concerns, given his wife’s access to sensitive information through her role in Congress. Critics argue that these trades, particularly in tech giants like Apple, Meta, and Tesla, cast doubt on the integrity of her office.

It’s no wonder Strenger went after Pelosi’s stock trading record. The question remains: why won’t Pelosi address the elephant in the room?
