Nancy Pelosi Says Jan. 6 Violence 'Didn't End That Day' Ahead Of Capitol Riot Anniversary

"It isn’t something that happens and then it’s over," the former House speaker said.
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Sunday said the violence that unfolded at the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection, “didn’t end that day,” referencing the brutal attack on her husband two years ago.
In an interview with CBS’s “Face the Nation” on the eve of the four-year anniversary of the Capitol riot, Pelosi said she is glad additional security measures have been put in place to safeguard the U.S. Capitol as lawmakers prepare to vote to certify Donald Trump’s Electoral College victory on Monday.
“I’m hoping that this will be very peaceful,” she said.
Looking back on Jan. 6, 2021, Pelosi suggested that Trump’s rhetoric against his political opponents, including herself, has had devastating effects that extend way beyond that single day, referencing the attack of her husband, Paul Pelosi, in October 2022 at the couple’s San Francisco home.
“Now it didn’t end that day,” she said of the Capitol riot. “As you know, he called out to these people to continue their violence, my husband being a victim of all of that, and he still has injuries from that attack. So it just goes on and on. It isn’t something that happens and then it’s over. No, once you are attacked, you have consequences that continue.”
