1) Given it was filmed by her daughter, I'm sure the intent was to be flattering to Speaker Pelosi even before it ended up being historically significant footage. That doesn't detract from the fact that her actions sure gave her daughter something worth recording!

2) But lots of credit, also, to the J6 committee for their stage managing of the hearings. Getting their powerful piece of media out there as the crowning message of the hearings is a nice touch, especially just as early voting is starting. Must have the Repukes spitting bile once again over the advantage we have in liberal entertainers embedded in our party (remember the virtual party conventions of 2020?)
