Pelosi says she's done talking about fight with 'Squad'

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Thursday said she was done talking in public about Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the tensions roiling her caucus after the New York lawmaker criticized her in an interview with The Washington Post.
And she shrugged off any offense that Ocasio-Cortez or the three other members of the "Squad" might have taken from her remarks.
"They took offense because I addressed, at the request of my members, an offensive tweet that came out of one of the members' offices that referenced our Blue Dogs and our New Dems essentially as segregationists," Pelosi said. "Our members took offense at that. I addressed that. How they're interpreting and carrying it to another place is up to them."
"But I'm not going to be discussing it any further," Pelosi said. "I said what I'm going to say."

She was in a bit of a mood.

They should be so lucky...

Her explanation doesn’t make any sense. She attacked them in the NYT interview because of their vote on the border bill. Nothing about the Saikat tweet led to this.

SQUAD? WTF is this?

$1000 dollars says she is going to be forced to discuss this again because they now have her on the ropes. Jim Clyburn (SC) is the one pulling the congressional strings because he wants to be the first black Speaker of the House and he has the Congressional Black Caucus's endorsement to help him oust Pelosi.

In reading your OP, she says she is not going to discuss it any more. She then discusses it, and takes a few shots at The Squad.
She then says that she is not going to discuss it any more.
She will continue to discuss it publicly, while allowing them to cut their own throats behind the scenes.

Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) said she plans to confront House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) about her ongoing clash with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and how the disagreement “diminishes progressive power.”
“I don’t think the speaker is used to having a group of members who has bigger Twitter followings than her. I don’t think most of us are,” Jayapal, the co-chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, said Thursday, according to Politico.
“God, it totally resonates with me, absolutely,” Jayapal continued. “We women of color have faced this for such a long time.”

White woman is trying to put a non-white woman in her place by telling her what she can and can't say! By all means Jayapal bring this to the public's attention because Nancy is a member of the white supremacy and IS NOT WOKE!

Jayapal is the head of the Progressive Caucus so they’re about to turn this into an all out war.

She's been "done" a bunch of times
