Fox News
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Sunday compared the attack against Paul Pelosi, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband, to the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
"It is horrific, and just very sad what we're seeing," she said. "And it goes to what we're seeing currently. We have to condemn political violence. It is something that should not be controversial. It is something that should not be partisan. It is something that all of us need to say that, and it should be done in one voice. But sadly, it has become political, and we need to end this."

"The thing that is probably the most haunting about when we hear the reports of this assailant, of the attacker that you were speaking of is that he was yelling out the things that we heard during January 6, which is, ‘Where is Nancy?’" she continued. "And you know, again we need to end this type of rhetoric. It needs to stop, and it is incredibly, incredibly dangerous."
