After observing that the January 6 riots were “personal” for Nancy Pelosi and making note of the fact that the interlopers in the Capitol chanted her name and sought to “shoot her in the friggin’ brain,” Nancy Pelosi could only answer in the negative when CBS News host Margaret Brennan asked whether she thought the event’s “nonviolent attackers” deserved a pardon.
“The nonviolent?” Pelosi replied. “I think that’s a violent attacker.” Moreover, the former House speaker added, the instigation in which Donald Trump engaged ahead of that day’s violence didn’t end with the assault on the Capitol. “He called out to these people to continue their violence,” Pelosi continued. “My husband being a victim of all of that. And it’s still, he still has injuries from that attack. So it just goes on and on.”
