Even at 84-years-old Nancy Pelosi refuses to go away.
She may have stepped down from Democrat leadership in the U.S. House, but she remains in Congress and is still one of the most powerful Democrat elites in the nation.
And now Nancy Pelosi just uttered one gas-lighting sentence she hopes will rewrite recent history in her favor.
Democrat lies allowed to slide
The so-called “mainstream” media has been biased in favor of Democrats for far longer than most people realize.
While most seem to recognize the one-sided nature of the corporate-controlled media today, it’s been that way for many decades.
The news agencies just used to be better at disguising their true activist nature.
Back then, even the most biased journalists at least wouldn’t allow Democrat politicians to openly lie.
As was fully on display at the debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, reporters now allow their favorite candidate to pass along fiction as the truth.
And now, Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is weaving quite the tail on how America even made it to the point in which the Vice President was on the dais opposite of the former President.
Nancy Pelosi engages in revisionist history
The San Francisco Democrat was recently on stage for a Q&A in front of an obviously left-leaning audience.
The interviewer asked about Pelosi originally stating she wanted to see an “open primary” should President Joe Biden end his re-election campaign and asked when Pelosi changed her mind.

That’s when Pelosi dove into the realm of fantasy and offered her own brand of revisionist history.
“No, I didn’t change my mind,” Pelosi said. “We had an open primary and [Kamala] won it. Nobody else got in the race because she was politically astute.”
The Trump campaign decided to have some fun with Pelosi’s Biden-like memory issues.
“Crazy Nancy: ‘We had an open primary and [Kamala] won it. Nobody else got in the race,’” Trump’s war room tweeted. “Yes, it totally was an open primary and definitely not a coup.”
So, who is correct, the Trump team or Pelosi?
Let’s take a look at the actual timeline to find out.
A timeline of the coup
Despite a majority of Democrat voters in polling suggesting they did not want President Joe Biden to run for a second term in the White House, the incumbent launched his re-election campaign in June 2023.
Democrat Party leaders immediately backed Biden’s decision and even changed their primary rules to tip the scales in his favor and dissuade any rumored big-name challengers, like Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA), for example.
The Democrat Party declined to schedule any debates and even rearranged the schedule of state primaries to frontload Biden strongholds.
Party elders and their friends in the media ignored and even hid the Democrat President’s obvious cognitive and health declines from the American public.
Biden was trailing in most polls heading into the debate, but he remained in striking distance of former President Donald Trump.
And then perhaps the worst debate performance in history happened – and the debate coincidentally was held far earlier than General Election debates typically take place.
The media knew even they couldn’t spin this one, and calls for Biden to step aside began.
As the calls grew louder, Biden insisted it would take Jesus Christ himself coming down from Heaven and commanding an end to the Biden-Harris campaign before he would withdraw from the race.
But it didn’t take Jesus – it took Nancy Pelosi.
The Hill reported that it was when Pelosi jumped on board that Biden finally caved to the behind-the-scenes powers.
His Vice President immediately announced she would enter the race.
Democrat media voices prepared for an open primary.
Names like Newsom, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, Governor Wes Moore of Maryland, and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg were rumored to be interested in running against the very unpopular Biden’s border czar.
However, Democrat strategists knew they were fighting the clock and couldn’t afford a contested primary so late in the game.
All of a sudden, the media coalesced around Kamala, and the “joy and vibes” campaign started.
Celebrities celebrated her candidacy, and the Democrat Vice President surged hypothetical head-to-head matchups against Trump.
Before their convention, Democrats nominated Kamala as their nominee under the cloak of darkness.
That’s what Pelosi describes as an “open primary.”
Keep that in mind when she and her ilk tell you, “Democracy is on the ballot this November.”
