Showing Original Post only (View all)Pelosi's advice for the 'Squad': 'You're not a one-person show' [View all]
BY JOSEPH CHOI - 04/12/21 08:46 AM EDT
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), in a soon-to-be-released biography, offered advice to the Squad, telling the progressive group of female lawmakers in the House, You're not a one-person show.
Axios reports that Pelosi gave the blunt piece of advice to the group which consists of Democratic Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.), Ilhan Omar (Minn.), Ayanna Pressley (Mass.) and Rashida Tlaib (Mich.) during one of 10 separate interviews she had with the book's author, USA Today Washington bureau chief Susan Page.
Youre not a one-person show. This is the Congress of the United States, Pelosi said of the advice she would offer the lawmakers.
Pelosi and the Squad have exchanged numerous barbs since the group was elected in the 2018 blue wave.

There are things I admire about Pelosi, but the way she dismisses these women of color is not one.
