“My sister married a Republican. [A] nice guy, and she says, ‘you can’t blame these things on Republicans.’ I say, ‘Look, everybody who voted for Trump did not storm the Capitol on Jan. 6, but everyone who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6 voted for Donald Trump,'” Pelosi explained.

“I’m not saying that my brother-in-law is the kind of person who would storm into somebody’s house and attack them in the middle of the night, but the talk that is out there trickles down to people who are —,” she began.
“— Susceptible,” Joy Behar chimed in, to Pelosi’s agreement.

Pelosi described being at the Capitol with her teenage son on Jan. 6 and catching some of the famous candid moments inside the building on that day.
“A lot of phone calls had to be made. The attorney general, the Department of Defense, you know, all of these different calls are being made. I felt like I had a duty to make the historical record of those calls,” she explained.
