Even Nancy Pelosi Is Condemning Antifa (585 hits)


House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) condemned Antifa via a statement on Tuesday, pointing specifically to the left-wing group’s criminal violence, vandalism, and threats this past Sunday in Berkeley, CA:

Pelosi Statement Condemning Antifa Violence in Berkeley

San Francisco — Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi released the following statement denouncing the violent protests carried out this weekend in Berkeley, California:

Our democracy has no room for inciting violence or endangering the public, no matter the ideology of those who commit such acts. The violent actions of people calling themselves antifa in Berkeley this weekend deserve unequivocal condemnation, and the perpetrators should be arrested and prosecuted.

In California, as across all of our great nation, we have deep reverence for the Constitutional right to peaceful dissent and free speech. Non-violence is fundamental to that right. Let us use this sad event to reaffirm that we must never fight hate with hate, and to remember the values of peace, openness and justice that represent the best of America.

But here's what she said just a week earlier.

Pelosi Dubs Patriot Prayer In San Francisco A ‘White Supremacist’ Rally
August 22, 2017 6:49 PM

Terms like neo-Nazi, white supremacist, white nationalist, alt-right, alt-left, fascist, Marxist, are loaded terms that are being used daily.

Pelosi had an event in San Francisco Tuesday and KPIX 5 political reporter Melissa Caen asked her about the labels, and asked her to explain her choice of words.

Conservative speakers say their free speech is being lumped together with bigoted and racist speech.

But Pelosi said Crissy Field is a special place.

“And now they’re going to give it as a venue to Nazis and white nationalists,” Pelosi said.

We looked at the Patriot Prayer group. Some of them are Trump supporters, but does that make them extremists?

Not according to the Southern Poverty Law Center. Patriot Prayer is not listed as a hate group, and it’s leader, Joey Gibson, is not listed as an extremist.

The Southern Poverty Law Center reported that at the most recent Patriot Prayer event, Gibson shouted from the stage “F*** white supremacists! F*** neo-Nazis!”

But in a press release, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi described the event planned at Crissy Field this Saturday as “a white supremacist rally.”

Joey Gibson, founder of Patriot Prayer said, “Like Nancy Pelosi, she feels like she has to oppose our group…so she lies and says it’s going to be a white supremacist rally even though there’s only one white speaker, you know, and so it’s frustrating.”

The Southern Poverty Law Center does point out that white supremacists have shown up to Patriot Prayer rallies before. And Patriot Prayer invited the often-armed, anti-government Oath Keepers to provide security on Saturday.

The Patriot Prayer Group says they are not white supremacists or Nazis, that they’re diverse, that people just show up.

We asked Pelosi, how can they be held accountable for that?

Pelosi said, “Well they’re accountable for it, and we’re going to hold them accountable for it.”

She went as far as to disagree with the National Park Service’s interpretation of the U.S. Constitution.

Pelosi said, “Giving them the ability to cry wolf in a crowded theater. We’re all committed to our Constitution and freedom of speech, God knows, in San Francisco. But not to endanger people. So the Park Service has to balance their ability to protect with their misguided view of the Constitution.”
