Showing Original Post only (View all)Newt Gingrich blames Nancy Pelosi for the Capitol riot, saying she should have secured the building [View all]
before the Trump supporters stormed itNewt Gingrich blamed Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi for the Capitol riot, saying it was her responsibility to ensure the Capitol was secure on January 6, 2021.
Gingrich made an appearance on "The Ingraham Angle" on the one-year anniversary of the insurrection, during which host Laura Ingraham asked if he, a former Speaker of the House, thought it was Pelosi's responsibility to secure the Capitol before the riot.
"I think she is the person who is most responsible for what happened," Gingrich told Ingraham. "It was her job to ensure there was adequate police."
"A lot of this is a dance by the Democrats who don't want us to look very closely at what actually happened," he added.
