Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) confronted a group of pro-Palestine protesters who had gathered outside her San Francisco home on Monday.
The protesters, who were advocating for a ceasefire and an end to the conflict in the Middle East, shouted various statements in opposition to Israel.
Including, it seems, a claim that something – perhaps the terror attacks by Hamas back in October – was “an inside job.”
In a video captured at the scene, Pelosi can be heard telling the protesters to, “Get out of my way” and advising them to “go back to China where your headquarters is.”

Pelosi Pushes Back Against Anti-Israel Protesters
Pelosi continued debating with the group as she climbed into her SUV. One even shouted, “Stop the genocide! Stop the Holocaust!”
The California Democrat may have been citing China in reference to the anti-war organization Code Pink.
Code Pink, along with their Co-Founder Jodie Evans, is being investigated for potential ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
That said, Pelosi literally just asserted that protesters calling for a ceasefire in Gaza are “connected to Russia.”
Which is it?
On CNN, Nancy Pelosi says that some protestors calling for a Gaza ceasefire and ending arms transfers to Ukraine are telling "Mister Putin's message."

“I think some of these protesters are spontaneous and organic and sincere. Some, I think, are connected to Russia,” Pelosi contended in a CNN interview.
She added that any calls for a ceasefire are “Mr. Putin’s message.”
Journalist Glenn Greenwald pointed out that Pelosi has now lumped left-wing pro-Hamas protesters in with both China and Russia.
“I thought she said yesterday that their headquarters were Russia?” he joked.
“Pelosi – like Biden – has been one of the most stalwart Israel supporters in Washington for her entire career,” Greenwald continued.

Pelosi Supports Peaceful Protests
Having now called for an investigation into the pro-Hamas protesters and their alleged links to Russia, then lumping them in with China, Pelosi’s office tried to clarify her stance.
Her office issued a statement saying that the congresswoman supports Americans’ rights to “peaceful protest.”
That said, “Speaker Pelosi is acutely aware of how foreign adversaries meddle in American politics to sow division and impact our elections, and she wants to see further investigation ahead of the 2024 election.”
That statement seems to be an insinuation that these protesters are a plot to help Republicans in the election. In reality, they are most assuredly far-left anti-Semites in the mold of the Democrat “Squad.”
Whether it’s China or Russia, it appears Pelosi is prepared to contend that foreign adversaries interfered in the election – just as Democrats did for four consecutive years following the 2016 presidential election.
