UPDATE
The AP confirmed she’s not buying the home:

ORIGINAL POST
There have been multiple reports swirling around Twitter that Nancy Pelosi has bought a beachside mansion in Jupiter, Florida:
FL broker just spilled that 1%er Nancy Pelosi is buying a beach front mansion in a Republican state – Jupiter Island, FL – reportedly 423 Beach Rd.
Curious if she maintains CA residency and still pays all the taxes she endorses for the rest of us.

Here’s the alleged home:

Fox News’ Peter Hasson says he spoke to the agent and confirmed she’s *NOT* the buyer:
FWIW I spoke on the phone today with the realtor who sold this house and she told me unequivocally that the buyer is not Pelosi https://t.co/3Po70poIvu

What about sea-level rise?

Tell us you have no fear of climate change without telling us you have no fear of climate change:
When climate hysterics stop buying oceanfront property, I might start to believe them about rising oceans.

Anyway, as we await some sort of official confirmation of the purchase, Sen. Rick Scott had a little fun at her expense, tweeting, “Even @SpeakerPelosi is sick of high taxes and crime in Calfornia and is headed to Florida”:

Larry the Cable Guy took a shot at her as well:
But I thought Florida was to dangerous cause no one wears masks and the oceans are gonna rise. Why put yourself in such a dangerous situation? Why a Bch house in a maskless state! Why!! Why!!Nancy, Save yourself!! RT @ChristinaPushaw: How many state lines did Nancy Pelosi cross?

And Monica Crowley noted that Pelosi “has spent decades turning San Francisco and California into a smoldering hellscape – and she can’t wait to get the hell out and to the free state of Florida”:

Yep. This is how the “ruling class” does it.
