As we told you earlier, Nancy Pelosi’s press conference contained an infuriating admission from the House Speaker:
'Breathtakingly sinister': Nancy Pelosi just admitted that she was willing to risk Americans' lives and livelihoods to get Joe Biden into the WH https://t.co/CsazTCCo5J

Now that we won the election, we'll stop hurting people is quite the messaging. https://t.co/izHQWmAFRU

Pelosi admitting to playing politics while Americans were (and are) hurting would be big news… if the country had an honest media. Instead in many reports what should be the headline is being either downplayed or ignored entirely:

The Associated Press hinted at Pelosi’s motivation without actually mentioning it:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is optimistic about prospects for a COVID-19 relief bill. The $908 billion bipartisan plan she has endorsed as a foundation for the bill marks a significant retreat from where Democrats stood before the election. https://t.co/r561aUOalc

None of these reports bother to mention something Pelosi herself basically admitted:
So her insane hatred of Trump delayed help for tens of millions of Americans.
They'll be so impressed. https://t.co/77McjFr3zK

“Journalism” dictates that Democrats either benefit from potentially harmful comments or actions either being omitted or framed in a “Republicans pounce” kind of way.
Gee I wonder what happened https://t.co/Y1uoSRvjvq

Did you forget to mention its only because she thinks Biden won the election ?

Even the Washington Post fact-checker was spotted yawning about what Pelosi said:
Not a single tweet from @GlennKesslerWP about @SpeakerPelosi admitting that the only reason she blocked the COVID-19 bill was because she wanted to help @JoeBiden.
Know why? Because his politics is more important to him than your business, your job, your well-being.

We can’t say we’re shocked.
