Nancy Pelosi has been awarded Taiwan’s highest civilian order during a visit that has sparked escalating military tensions with China.
Taiwan president Tsai Ing-wen honoured Pelosi, the US House speaker, with the Order of Propitious Clouds with Special Grand Cordon, draping the blue sash over the US House Speaker during a meeting broadcast live on Wednesday from the presidential palace.
Tsai claimed it “represented their [Taiwan’s] gratitude to Pelosi and the wish to continue progressing US-Taiwan relations through more cooperation.”

Me really liked her for her opinions :
Pelosi was a major opponent of the Iraq War as well as the Bush administration's 2005 attempt to partially privatize Social Security.
During her first speakership, she was instrumental in the passage of many of the Obama administration's landmark bills,
including the Affordable Care Act, the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act,
the Don't Ask, Don't Tell Repeal Act, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, and the 2010 Tax Relief Act.
BTW, similj is
dont ask, dont tell repeal act ?

Financial status
The nonpartisan OpenSecrets estimated in 2009 that Pelosi's average net worth was approximately $58 million, ranking her 13th among 25 wealthiest members of Congress.[311] In 2014, OpenSecrets reported Pelosi's average net worth almost doubled to approximately $101 million, ranking her 8th out of the 25 wealthiest members of Congress.[312] Business Insider reported that Pelosi's worth was $26.4 million in 2012 and made her the 13th richest member of Congress.[313] In 2014, Roll Call estimated that Pelosi's net worth was $29.35 million, ranking her the 15th wealthiest member of Congress.[314]Roll Call said Pelosi's earnings are connected to her husband's heavy investments in stocks that include Apple, Disney, Comcast and Facebook. Roll Call reported that the couple have $13.46 million in liabilities including mortgages on seven properties. According to Roll Call, Pelosi and her husband hold properties "worth at least $14.65 million, including a St. Helena vineyard in Napa Valley worth at least $5 million and commercial real estate in San Francisco".[314]
As of 2021, Pelosi's net worth was valued at $120 million, making her the 6th richest person in Congress. According to journalist Glenn Greenwald, the Pelosis have traded $33 million worth of tech stocks over the past two years, including Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, Facebook, and Google stocks.[315] In May and June 2021, Pelosi’s husband purchased stocks in tech companies such as Alphabet, Amazon, and Apple, netting a gain of $5.3 million. This occurred even while Speaker Pelosi was working on anti-trust legislation to better regulate the tech industry.[316] The CEO of Apple, Tim Cook, had called Pelosi to lobby her in opposition to the new regulations.[317] Pelosi opposes increasing regulations on stock trades by members of congress, stating that "we’re a free market economy" and congresspeople "should be able to participate in that".[318] This comment drew strong criticism, including from Democrats who favor banning stock trades by members of Congress.[319]

Of course she opposed Bush's Iraq invasion. They are from opposite parties.
She will support everything her party proposes and oppose anything the Reps do
