(BPR) Elon Musk had a little fun with a report about Nancy Pelosi’s niece holding a cushy climate advisor job for the US government, suggesting in jest that there may be some merit behind the appointment.
Alexis Pelosi, 58, the wife of Pelosi’s nephew, Laurence Pelosi, works as a senior climate advisor at the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), earning a salary of $181,648.00.
The niece was hired early on in the Biden regime’s ascension to power and has been in the role for nearly three years — her husband is a real estate attorney who operates out of Washington, according to the Daily Mail.
With Musk heading up the newly created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), cost cutting will soon take center stage, and social media users saw this prime example of nepotism as low-hanging fruit, but the SpaceX CEO countered, tongue in cheek, “But maybe her advice is amazing.”

Alexis openly advocated for President Joe Biden’s reelection in a number of Facebook posts and shared the photo below on her page, even making it her profile picture for a while — interestingly, she did not advocate a single time on her page for the election of Kamala Harris after Biden was forced out — her aunt reportedly playing a key role in that ouster.
