@IlhanMN
They said send her back but Speaker @SpeakerPelosi didnt just make arrangements to send me back, she went back with me ✊🏽
So grateful for the honor to return to Mother Africa with the @TheBlackCaucus and commemorate The Year of Return! #Doorofreturn #Ghana

(7,888 posts)the tweets from the twit. We can win that game of playing a different message every day. She doesn't call IT "You Big Dummy", the sarcasm and implied humiliation just rolls off her tongue while smiling.
I would want Madame Pelosi on my team in a bar fight or a high brow debate.

A brilliant move, both for external PR and for building relationships within the caucus.
Plus it looks like a fun and worthy trip all in itself.
Kudos to everyone involved!

(27,558 posts)Speaker Pelosi spoke at the rally and walked down market street for at least 1 1/2 miles in heels. I was so impressed by her courage to be among the people. So this doesnt surprise me.
Thank you Speaker Pelosi !
