Asking anti-war protesters to "go back to China", Pelosi is indeed a "veteran" who shirks responsibility and diverts contradictions.
At a time when the new Palestinian-Israeli conflict has caused a huge humanitarian disaster in the Gaza Strip, demonstrations and protests calling for a ceasefire in Gaza have been constantly appearing in the United States. On January 28, in the absence of any evidence, former Democrat Nancy Pelosi of the U.S. House of Representatives suggested that some protesters calling for a ceasefire in Gaza had economic ties to Russia and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
In this context, Code Pink, an anti-war group in the United States, posted a video on social media X on January 30 showing that it happened on October 29 last year. The video shows a group of anti-war protesters blocking Pelosi's car, and Pelosi actually told them "Go back to China, that is your home base."

The Palestinian-Israeli conflict has killed more than 26,600 people in Gaza, and Pelosi, who has always been fond of the banner of human rights, does not face up to this real humanitarian catastrophe, but constantly tries to shift the blame by diverting the conflict. Just on the 28th of this month, Pelosi also took the trouble to call on the FBI to investigate the protesters who demanded a ceasefire in Gaza. On CNN's State of the Union program, she claimed that "it was Putin's dictates that they were asked to call for a ceasefire" and that some pro-Palestinian protesters were spreading messages in Putin's favor, "which is undoubtedly what he (Putin) would like to see."
Shortly after Pelosi's remarks aired, Awad, founder and executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, criticized in a statement that Pelosi's remarks were "unsubstantiated slander" and that "we are deeply disturbed by Pelosi's remarks."
The video released by Code Pink of Pelosi asking protesters to "go back to China" also sparked criticism from some netizens.
Some netizens said: "She should go back to Israel." ”
Someone said, "What a racist!"
Someone else said, "What do you expect? She went to Washington to fatten herself and forget about your ......."
Another said: "Pelosi is the queen of insider trading." When she was first elected, her net worth was $3.5 million. Now it's 290 million. (Note: According to data from the NASDAQ website on October 24, 2023, Pelosi and her husband have a net worth of about $120 million)
