We're nearly four full months into the Israel-Hamas war, which was instigated by Hamas terrorists on October 7, 2023, and pro-Hamas activists on the left are still doing their thing in demanding U.S. politicians support their calls for a "ceasefire."
Though small, there is a growing contingent of Democrats on the House side who have latched onto this Squad-backed movement - which is also gaining steam inside the Biden White House.
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is not among them, having previously expressed support for Israel's right to defend itself and its people.
Because of that, anti-Israel agitators have been frequent visitors to Pelosi's San Francisco home, repeatedly staging demonstrations and calling for her to support a ceasefire.
One video clip currently making the rounds on social media shows Pelosi at various points bringing up China in the midst of some heated exchanges after some of the protesters alleged without evidence that the October 7th massacre was an "inside job." In the below tweet, it was claimed that Pelosi said "go back to China" before the door to the vehicle was shut.
See if that's what you hear:

As it turns out, that protest was from October and included Code Pinkers laying in front of Pelosi's SUV to try and stop her from leaving. They, too, claimed Pelosi told them to "go back to China":
In October, Pelosi told our members calling for a ceasefire to “go back to China.”

These same women have been protesting for peace at her house for 17 years.

While radical leftists taking extreme measures to try and get their supposed "points" across is nothing new, what was strange was Pelosi's references to China, regardless of whether she actually told them to "go back to China."
More recently, Pelosi went on CNN, where she went even further, suggesting there was a Putin connection to some of the pro-ceasefire demonstrations and also calling for their financing to be investigated:
Well, let me just say this, because I have been the recipient of their, shall we say, exuberances, and it's as recently as in Seattle on Thursday, unfortunately wanted to disrupt our very exciting Democratic meeting there.
They're in front of my house all the time. So I have a feeling for what feelings they have. But we have to think about what we're doing. And what we have to do is try to stop the suffering and gossip. This is women and children. People don't have a place to go. So let's address that.
But for them to call for a cease-fire is Mr. Putin's message, Mr. Putin's message. Make no mistake, this is directly connected to what he would like to see. Same thing with Ukraine. It's about Putin's message. I think some of these -- some of these protesters are spontaneous and organic and sincere.
Some, I think, are connected to Russia. And I say that having looked at this for a long time now, as you know.[...]
I don't think they're plants. I think some financing should be investigated. And I want to ask the FBI to investigate that.

I'm not sure where this is coming from, but instead of directing her ire at the people engaging in the type of tactics she would 100 percent approve of were they being used against a Republican, Pelosi should point fingers at members of the Squad and every other Democrat member of Congress who have fueled the ceasefire mobs by beginning their calls for it not 24 hours after Israel was first attacked as though they should refrain from defending themselves.
The far-left activists are just an extension of the problem, not the cause of it. The AOCs and Rashida Tlaibs and Cori Bushes of Congress are to blame in part for whipping up the agitators who plan and carry out these out-of-control protests, which I should note also included barricading members of the DNC inside party headquarters and at another point storming the Canon House Building.
You reap what you sow, and unfortunately for Democrats, they are seeing the result of years of coddling antisemitism within their ranks, including from the days when Pelosi was House Speaker. They have no one to blame for the nonsensical, fanatical, hate-filled rantings of pro-ceasefire mobs but themselves, not Putin and China.
