WASHINGTON DC (Yaakov M / VINnews) Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is being blasted, after shoving her elbow into the little daughter of new GOP Congresswoman Mayra Flores, while they were posing for a picture.

In response, Pelosi claims that she shoved the Republican girl to help her get INTO the picture.
Spokesman Drew Hamill said the Speaker was actually trying to ensure the girl remained in the shot, and would not be obstructed.
This is a bizarre defense, because Hamill is ADMITTING that Pelosi intentionally elbowed the girl, which is pretty disgraceful, regardless of Pelosi’s intent.
Hamill also accused ‘news outlets’ of twisting the story, despite Congresswoman Flores herself making the allegation on Twitter.
He said: ‘It’s sad to see “news outlets” that know better misrepresent the Speaker’s effort to ensure Rep. Flores’ daughters wouldn’t be hidden behind her in all of the photos of such an important moment for their family.’
She’s a horrible person either way
If you watch the video, she was not trying to get the girl into the picture. She was pushing her the opposite way out of the picture. She just didn’t want the little Hispanic touching her. Nancy is a racist at heart, like most liberals.
She’s multi faceted. From shredding a president’s SOU speech to shoving little girls.
Nancy could have put her hand behind the girl just as easily as shoving her over (away). Optics is very important and the Speaker knows that. She knew what she was doing.
Nancy is …..well she’s Nancy. No surprise here.
A truly vile person! She showing her true colors. She’ll throw anybody under the bus that gets in her way.
someone needs to shove this machshefa down a very long flight of stone stairs.
it can only improve that miserable face.
Poupko tells us to vote democratic
Make way for the Queen Bee
SOrry Nancy looks more like you were shoving out of your space Only a democrat could do this and get applauded for it
Yes, it was very important to see that tenth of her body that was hidden behind Pelozi. We could already see her face perfectly, but… whatever.
shoving? although I do NOT like her, from the picture, she is just moving the kid from being too close to her. No big sin…..
My filter blocks the video posted here–but not the video of the entire swearing-in that you can watch on C-SPAN.org. There, I did not see anything that looked like a deliberate shove, with a hand or even with an elbow. I’m not sure what the complaint here is.
It is so sad that this “Yaakov M” has to nitpick on every perceived infraction by any Democrat.
