‘Am I A B****?’: Pelosi Asks Explicit Question After Phone Call With Mike Pence

After a sarcastic phone exchange with then-Vice President Mike Pence in 2020, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi asked her daughter, a documentarian who was filming her, a rhetorical question that would likely elicit strong responses from conservatives.

Pelosi had been listening to Pence speaking during a COVID teleconference while she was muted, the Daily Mail reported. Her daughter Alexandra, filming her for a future documentary, asked, “What is the point of this call?” “They’re checking a box,” Pelosi answered. After unmuting herself to sarcastically tell Pence, “This has been a useful exchange,” followed by questions on how the Trump administration was following the spread of the virus, she signed off, “Happy Easter!”

After hanging up, she asked her daughter the question that could launch thousands of trolls, “Am I a b****?”

The entire exchange was shown in Alexandra Pelosi’s HBO documentary “Pelosi in the House,” which aired on Tuesday.

In January 2019, speaking on CNN’s “New Day,” Alexandra Pelosi bragged about her mother’s toughness, saying, “She’ll cut your head off and you won’t even know you’re bleeding.”

Pelosi was asked about her mother’s impending discussions on Wednesday with President Trump regarding the government shutdown.

Host John Berman started by asking, “If you can tell us what Speaker Pelosi thinks about going in —”

Pelosi stated, “John, we have known you for two decades. Do you think I’m the kind of person who is going to come on CNN and talk about my mother? Is that who you think I am?”

Berman persisted, “I’m asking you, you were a fantastic political reporter. How much does she approach meetings with President Trump, A, and B, just what are your feelings about this person, who you know quite well, becoming Speaker of the House for a second time?”

Pelosi continued:

She’ll cut your head off and you won’t even know you’re bleeding. That’s all you need to know about her, No one ever won betting against Nancy Pelosi. She’s persevered. You’ve got to give her credit, no matter what you think of her, you have to give her credit, because, think about it. Think about all those presidents she’s endured, right? She was the Bush, the Bush, the Clinton, you know, she’s been through it all. So, she’s been around. This is not her first rodeo, as your friend George Bush would say. So she knows what she’s doing. And that’s — should make you sleep at night that at least somebody in this town knows what they’re doing.
