00:00Pelosi has a sharp response to reporters' question about J6.
00:04Nancy Pelosi is back in the headlines, and not for reasons she'll be happy about.
00:09The 85-year-old former House speaker had an outburst caught on camera,
00:13snapping at MAGA-aligned reporter Alison Steinberg for questioning decisions regarding January 6th,
00:19reigniting long-standing issues for Democrats.
00:22Why, she asked, did Pelosi refuse the National Guard on the day of the Capitol riot?
00:26Pelosi retorted, shut up, emphasizing the president didn't send it.
00:31She deflected by questioning the reporter's agenda.
00:34This is a former speaker, a key political figure shouting shut up over a pivotal security query.
00:40Such reactions, regardless of one's political stance, prompt curiosity.
00:45Why so defensive?
00:46Especially when the footage tells a different story.
00:49Pelosi's daughter, Alexandria, recorded her saying,
00:52We have totally failed, taking full responsibility for not having the National Guard ready on January 6th.
00:59That video was buried for over two years.
01:02It only surfaced thanks to Republicans revisiting the events with a new subcommittee.
01:06This footage challenges Democrats from pointing fingers solely at President Trump and the GOP.
01:12It's about who was responsible for plans preceding January 6th.
01:16As Speaker, Pelosi can't dismiss her role in Capitol security, especially with ongoing prosecutions.
01:23To complicate matters, a whistleblower suggests top military officials contemplated disobeying Trump's orders,
01:29presuming without legal basis.
01:31While headlines focus on insurrection and accountability,
01:35the situation suggests selective blame rather than fairness.
01:38Responding emotionally to a reporter's simple question about responsibility,
01:43Pelosi's raw, angry reaction raises a key question.
01:47Why react strongly if confident in her decisions?
01:50As Representative Barry Loudermilk emphasized,
01:53the investigation traditionally continues with documents and testimony,
01:57avoiding Hollywood edits and excluding footage ignored by the previous committee.
