Newly released footage from January 6, 2021, has exposed what Nancy Pelosi did while leaving the Capitol during the insurrection. The video has created a stir across social media and has raised questions about the role of the Speaker of the House during the chaos.
The footage, which was obtained by CNN, shows Pelosi walking briskly through the Capitol complex alongside aides, security personnel, and lawmakers. Pelosi can be seen wearing a face mask and carrying what appears to be a large envelope or folder.
As she walks, Pelosi appears to be focused and determined. She moves quickly and looks around frequently, surveying the scene and assessing the situation. At one point, Pelosi turns to her aides and says, “Keep moving, stay behind me.”
As the group makes their way out of the Capitol complex, the footage shows Pelosi passing by a group of rioters who are crowded around a door. In the video, the rioters are seen yelling and screaming, but Pelosi remains calm and composed.
The footage has sparked controversy, with some critics accusing Pelosi of hypocrisy for leaving the Capitol while others were in danger. Others have praised Pelosi for her leadership and composure in a chaotic and dangerous situation.
In response to the criticism, Pelosi’s office released a statement saying that Pelosi was “aware of the potential danger posed by the violent mob” and that she “remained calm and focused throughout the ordeal.” The statement also noted that Pelosi spoke with the Department of Defense and the Attorney General’s office during the siege.
Despite the controversy, the newly released footage offers a rare glimpse of Pelosi’s actions during the insurrection. It also highlights the challenges faced by lawmakers and government officials as they attempted to navigate a dangerous and unpredictable situation.
