Nancy Pelosi goes on a lavish holiday in Italy as inflation at home hits its highest level in 40 years

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi spent time during the two-week Fourth of July congressional recess at a luxury resort in Italy owned by a renowned Italian operatic tenor as Americans faced the most the country’s high inflation since the 1980s.

Pelosi, multimillionaire and first Italian-American speaker, was spotted at the luxurious Alpemare Beach Club in Forte dei Marmi. A spokeswoman said she was at the resort on a day pass and did not stay overnight. The spokesperson declined to say how many times she visited or where she spent the night in Italy.

The resort is one of the most exclusive on the Mediterranean coast.

“Alpemare is not only a fabulous beach club, but also a livable museum where works of art will be exhibited throughout the year as well as performances by many international artists,” says the resort’s website. .

It’s unclear how much Pelosi and her husband spent on their day pass, but the spokeswoman said she spent her own money while on vacation. “It was a personal expense, they were there for a personal trip and a commercial flight,” the aide said.

Alpemare only discusses its prices after a telephone consultation.

But Tripadvisor, the popular travel review website, notes that some hotel restaurant entrees cost nearly $150.

The excursion comes as Pelosi and his fellow Democrats in Washington have struggled to react to the country’s deteriorating economic situation.
