House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is engaging in the same conduct her deputies on the Select Committee to investigate Jan. 6 have depicted as impeachable.
On Monday, Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., spent the final portion of the committee’s second hearing complaining that former President Donald Trump fundraised off stolen election claims.
“The big lie was also a big rip-off,” Lofgren said twice in the hearing, referring to Trump’s affiliated political action committees collecting donations to litigate 2020 election claims that were made in the press.
“The former president laid the groundwork for these false claims well in advance of the election,” Lofgren added, airing a video of Trump talking about his well-founded concerns of ballot fraud ahead of a contest that included underhanded, last-minute rule changes across key states.
“The only way we’re going to lose this election is if the election is rigged,” Trump said in one video played at Monday’s hearing. “Remember that. It’s the only way we’re going to lose this election. This is going to be a fraud like you’ve never seen.”
Except just one week prior, a Pelosi-affiliated super PAC solicited donations with an email campaign raising doubts about the legitimacy of the fall midterms.
“I will NOT let McConnell, McCarthy, and their special interest donors steal the House from us and roll back our fundamental freedoms,” Pelosi wrote in a message to supporters for her leadership PAC, “Pac to the Future.”
