Nancy Pelosi might not be the Speaker of the House anymore, but she is still an influential member of the Democratic Party. She is also one of Donald Trump’s top enemies on Capitol Hill. She infamously led the J6 Commission.
What she claimed has been pushed by other Democrats to blame Trump for the events of January 6, 2021. There is even a criminal trial going on over it.
Yet House Republicans apparently are sick and tired of Nancy’s attacks. Since taking over the majority, they have poured over the “evidence” from Pelosi’s commission. While Democrats destroyed much of their documentation, one telltale video survived. And Pelosi is having some severe heartburn over it.
From Fox News:
A previously unreleased video taken on Jan. 6, 2021 shows then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., saying she takes “responsibility” for law enforcement’s lack of preparedness when a mob stormed the U.S. Capitol that day.A tweet on X by a House Republican panel contains video that appears to show a frustrated Pelosi being evacuated from the Capitol complex and in intense conversation with Chief of Staff Terri McCullough about how the evacuation was conducted…
Her aide appeared to reply that Capitol security did believe they were prepared, to which Pelosi continued, “They clearly didn’t know, and I take responsibility for not having them just prepared for more.”
🚨 Since January 6, 2021, Nancy Pelosi spent 3+ years and nearly $20 million creating a narrative to blame Donald Trump.

House Republicans released a video of Nancy Pelosi on the day of the Capitol riot. She is being driven away from the Capitol building. Pelosi is apparently speaking to her chief of staff, Terri McCollough about what was going on.
In the video, Pelosi takes responsibility for the Capitol Police’s unpreparedness. She even asked why the National Guard wasn’t there before anything happened. Many have pointed out that the National Guard would have been able to stop the chaos had they been brought in the day before.
Reports indicated that law enforcement had information about a possible uproar on that day. They claim they reported his to Pelosi, who had declined to request the National Guard. Even then-President Trump recommended extra protection, but Pelosi declined.
In this video, she appears to be admitting she was wrong. It seems there was a massive breakdown in Pelosi’s office and chain of command. This video suggests Pelosi was not the one to decline the National Guard, but someone else within her office.
But her admission of blame shatters her previous claims. Pelosi has spent three years blaming Trump for the events of that day. She has refused to take responsibility, to not undermine her attacks against the former president.
It is unclear what might come from this revelation. But it certainly destroys Pelosi’s credibility regarding the events of the day.
Key Takeaways:
- Newly released video shows Pelosi taking responsibility for the J6 riot.
- The video shows her speaking with her chief of staff about the lack of National Guard, and other law enforcement.
- Pelosi has publicly blamed Trump for the Capitol riot and has refused to accept responsibility.
