Pelosi’s WILD CNN Interview Fixates on January 6th While Ignoring Biden-Era Chaos

The interview, conducted by CNN’s Anderson Cooper and aired from the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., was supposed to be a moment for reflection—a chance for the former Speaker to discuss her career, her policies, and her vision for the country she claimed to “love.” 

Instead, before Cooper even cleared his first question during their tour of National Statuary Hall, Pelosi immediately launched into the same tired script Democrats rely on every time they want to avoid accountability: January 6th.

This was not an interview about the future. It wasn’t about the seven presidents she worked with. It wasn’t even about the country’s actual challenges in 2025 under President Trump, or America’s declining position under Democrats in Congress. 

Pelosi began the interview with one topic and one topic only: January 6th. 

Standing in the historic hall under the Lincoln-built dome, Pelosi told Cooper that “patriots” who visited the Capitol that day “defecated on the floor.” 

She repeated that phrase twice, eager to paint anyone who dissent from Democrat rule as a criminal. 

That was her priority—her leading message—during her first national interview since walking away from Congress.
