Soon to be retiring Rep. Nancy Pelosi totally lost her mind on Thursday, June 4, when pressed by Lindell TV reporter Alison Steinberg about allegations of her involvement with the poor governmental response to January 6, with the congresswoman berating the reporter repeatedly for “spouting untruths” about that day.
The moment came when Steinberg found and approached the former Speaker of the House, who has been in Congress for about four decades, on Capitol Hill, and approached her to ask about the days’ events on January 6 and her alleged involvement in blocking the National Guard from intervening. Pelosi freaking out, and started screaming and shouting at Steinberg, yelling at her to “shut up” and rambling about Mike Lindell.
The exchange began with Steinberg asking, “Last time I asked you about January 6, why you turned the National Guard away on January 6, you told me to shut up and that I was repeating Republican talking points.” Pelosi angrily snapped back, “And I’ll tell you to shut up again because you’re speaking lies, and I don’t have anything to do with it.”
Steinberg responded by using Pelosi’s own words against her, saying, “You’re here, right here, on record saying, ‘I’ll admit it.’ Pelosi angrily fired back, “No, I did not admit it. The president never sent– would agree to send the National Guard. Don’t waste your time or mine on you.”
That then led to Steinberg asking, “Why was your daughter filming you on January 6?” Pelosi angrily snapped, refusing to answer the question, “Why don’t you get away?” Steinberg then insisted that the questions are important, telling Pelosi, “These are just questions the American people want answers to–”
That’s when it went more and more off the rails, with Pelosi cutting off the reporter to angrily denounce and attack MyPillow owner and CEO Mike Lindell. She snapped, “You know what, I don’t even think you’re a real journalist. You work for Mike, pillow man?” Steinberg started saying, “Actually, I do, and we’re very proud–”
That’s when Pelosi snapped, “Yeah, I don’t consider that journalism. Mike the pillow man, that’s not journalism. I don’t have any reason to talk to you.” Steinberg joked, “He’d love to give you a free pillow.” Pelosi then angrily said, “You should record this. I want people to know that you’re not a real journalist. You work for Mike the pillow man, and all you do is spout untruths. Get away from me.” Steinberg tried to insist Pelosi answer her question, but the lawmaker snapped, “Get away from me.”

Trump, posting about the matter of Pelosi, J6, and the National Guard on Truth Social back in 2024, claimed, “REPORT: Nancy Pelosi was responsible for Security – She should not have turned down the 10,000 solders offered by President Trump days before January 6. Also, the January 6th Unselect Committee of political Hack and Thugs should not have DELETED AND DESTROYED the Evidence and Findings of their Committee. What they did is illegal- A CRIME!!!”
