WASHINGTON D.C. – Did Nancy Pelosi shove a newly elected GOP congresswoman’s daughter for while taking a photo?
Rep. Mayra Flores (R-TX) accused Nancy Pelosi of pushing her daughter to the side while posing at her swearing in ceremony.
Flores said in a tweet, “I am so proud of my strong, beautiful daughter for not allowing this to faze her. She continued to smile and pose for the picture like a Queen.”
Credit to Dennis Hendrickson for the video.
The video shows Pelosi getting ready to take a posed picture next to Flores’ daughter and it appears she extends her elbow into the child’s shoulder.
Flores became the first Mexican-born member of the US Congress after winning a special election against democrat Dan Sanchez. This congressional seat was vacant after Rep. Filemon Vela retired.
Pelosi did congratulate Flores on the achievement saying, “It’s a great honor to welcome Congresswoman Flores to the Capital and to the Congress of the United States with great congratulations.”

Doesn't look like it to me. Looks like the girl moved on her own.

PermalinkIt doesn't even look like she made contact. The girls dress doesn't even move and the shadow is still there.

PermalinkIt's very obvious in the video that Pelosi shoved the girl. Glad the young lady moved back in close so she was in the picture. Pelosi is disgusting in so many ways!
