Newly released January 6th security footage at the Capitol shows Nancy Pelosi’s daughter continuing to film for a documentary as the then-Speaker was being evacuated from the building.
The clips, showing three different angles of Pelosi’s exit, were released and aired for the public to see by Just The News Thursday evening.

The evacuation wasn’t exactly the chaotic scene one might have expected. Instead, it shows Pelosi casually shuffling along while her daughter Alexandra holds a camera up to film the scene.
The outlet reports that the prominent Democrat “exited Hollywood-style from the home of Congress” with “her daughter filming her as security officers tried to guide her through a secret safe passage corridor.”
Alexandra Pelosi is a filmmaker who just so happened to be there filming for “Pelosi in the House,” an HBO documentary released last December.

Critics Blast Pelosi Over New J6 Video
Republican lawmakers responded to the J6 video of Pelosi sauntering out of the Capitol by accusing her of profiting off the riots.
“They use that situation to film it so that their family can make millions of dollars later by selling the video footage and a documentary,” Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) said.
“It’s all about creating a movie script,” Representative Claudia Tenney (R-NY) added. “It’s all about power, abuse of power.”
She said the footage practically looks like a “made-for-TV movie.”

Steven Sund, the chief of the Capitol Police at the time of the riot, criticized Pelosi after viewing the J6 video.
“The protective detail isn’t there to protect media and whoever else was there with her for the sole purpose of videotaping creates a major distraction for the protective detail,” said Sund.
Nancy Pelosi was warned about potential threats to the Capitol on J6 and she had her daughter there with camera in hand.
I think they clearly knew what they were doing. And they capitalized on it and made millions of dollars. pic.twitter.com/PTUcQjDdim

Video at the time showed Nancy Pelosi saying she hoped then-President Trump marched to the Capitol himself so she could “punch him out.”
“I hope he comes,” Pelosi says in the documentary clip. “I want to punch him out. This is my moment. I’ve been waiting for this. For trespassing on the Capitol grounds. I want to punch him out, and I’m going to go to jail, and I’m going to be happy.”
“I hope he comes, I’m going to punch him out … I’m going to punch him out, I’m going to go to jail, and I’m going to be happy.”

“This is my moment.”
And the film kept rolling even under an order of evacuation.
Former acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller suggested Pelosi was an ‘incoherent’ and ‘shrieking’ mess during the January 6th riot, and downplayed the crowd who had overrun the Capitol as “a rowdy band of MAGA supporters” who were “taking selfies.”

Well, they weren’t as camera hungry as the Speaker herself it would seem.

“I had never seen anyone — not even the greenest, pimple-faced 19-year-old Army private — panic like our nation’s elder statesmen did on January 6 and in the months that followed,” Miller joked.

Miller described a “histrionic” Pelosi as demanding he “get troops to the Capitol now” as the rioters were growing in number.
But these videos show no histrionics whatsoever. Was the call for troops little more than performance art on her part?

The fact that Pelosi’s daughter was there at all that day shows you that she knew about the “insurrection” in advance and deliberately didn’t do anything about it. The whole J6 event was largely orchestrated by Pelosi, the FBI, and the Capitol Police. It was intentional to put the blame on Trump and his supporters, just like the Russia collusion hoax and everything else they have accused Trump of. The Demoncrats are the party of crime and corruption and it’s about time the People rise up against them
“Alexandra Pelosi is a filmmaker and who just so happened to be there filming for “Pelosi in the House,” an HBO documentary. She’s also an Emmy Award-nominated documentarian. Her six-time, Emmy-nominated film chronicled President George W. Bush’s campaign trail She’s made 14 documentaries, including her recent ‘Pelosi in the House.’
This was something she had been working on for some time. she captured her mother throughout all aspects of her life, between following her through the halls of Congress and documenting her calls with Mike Pence at home while she’s doing laundry. There’s no credible evidence that the attack was a setup or was contrived in some way and Alexandra Pelosi used an iPhone or a small, handheld camera that she always has with her.
Republican lawmakers responded to the J6 video of Pelosi sauntering out of the Capitol by accusing her of profiting off the riots. “They use that situation to film it so that their family can make millions of dollars later by selling the video footage and a documentary,” Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) said.
Of course, the poster child for the MAGA brain trust has an opinion. It was being filmed as a documentary for HBO already. It’s the intellectual property of that company, Pelosi wouldn’t be able to profit from it. Her daughter was never making a movie about Nancy Pelosi. There was never a microphone. A lot of it was filmed without her consent. She never gave her daughter permission to film her. A lot of it was filmed using an iPhone.
Of the rhetoric or theories being promoted she said, “I think that haters are going to hate and they’re going to automatically say, “Nancy Pelosi’s daughter made a film, therefore it must be propaganda for Nancy Pelosi. I don’t recommend you ever go on the internet because all it is, is toxic waste and verbal diarrhea. The right-wing haters just decided they hate Nancy Pelosi so much; it just proves that we are so in our own bubbles.”
While the selected clips portray a selective narrative the documentary in its entirety captures the response of congressional leaders as they left the building for a secure location, mobilizing to protect Capitol staff and continuing the business of the day: the certification of the 2020 Electoral College votes that made Joe Biden president. All the while Donald Trump sat mesmerized by the television in the White House dining room.
It shows all of them, Pelosi and her colleagues did what President Trump was not doing, what he simply refused to do that day.
No such thing as coincidences with this bunch.
Just another thing showing this was ALL planned.
Making a physical threat to an ex-President comes under the heading of assault and MUST be investigated by the Secret Service. If you or I were to make such a threat they would be there at 6;00 the next morning and we would face charges.
Of course Trump would be entitled to defend himself against an assault by Pelosi, and I for one would pay good money to watch the bout.
Piglousy is so disgusting, she states “she’ll punch President Trump out if he showed up at the Capitol, please you ugly old decrepit piece of shit who calls herself a woman. Someone should punch you in your ugly face. Piglousy’s daughter videotaped the whole incident on Jan. 6, and it was all for money. She should be arrested for her actions that day, for not taking the responsibility that was hers to protect the Capitol. Piglousy planned this whole charade to make it all be blamed on the MAGA Republicans. What a piece of trash! Karma will come to this bitch and I will be overwhelmed with joy!
It’s not too late to arrest her now for threatening assault of the President of the United States. Please put me on the jury.
Piglosi = criminal POS
They sure weren’t running for there lives.
The whole thing was a act put on to trap Trump. It was orchestrated by Pelosi and her ” I’m gonna Get Trump ” why is some of the worst perpetrators walking free never charged, the 3 black clad people who broke out the windows, never identified or charged. The Pipe bomb planter ( of later shown to be fake ) who they had on film and even followed to a residence on Camera, never arrested, never charged. Why ?
It wasn’t orchestrated by Pelosi or attempt to trap Trump. He doesn’t need any help self-incriminating himself. Leaders of the group, Proud Boys had said they would dress in “all BLACK” that day to mimic the attire of anti-fascist groups and counter protesters. Ethan Nordean, dressed all in black, wearing a tactical vest helped coordinate members’ storming of the Capitol. They split up into groups in an attempt to break into the Capitol building from as many different points as possible.
The members carried out their conspiracy in part by obtaining paramilitary gear and supplies, including tactical vests, protective equipment and radio equipment. They arranged to communicate using Baofeng radios, Chinese-made devices that can be programmed for use on hundreds of frequencies, making it difficult for outsiders to eavesdrop. Law enforcement recovered one such radio, still tuned to a frequency that the group had used from Nordean’s home.
He was found guilty along with other members.
