Long a focal point of the ire of Trump and his allies, Pelosi created the select committee to investigate the Jan. 6 insurrection last year, about a month after Senate Republicans blocked a vote on creating an independent commission to probe the attack.
Nancy Pelosi was not a member of the U.S. House committee that referred former President Donald Trump to the Department of Justice for prosecution on Monday, but her name will nonetheless be remembered alongside them.
Its new name was officially renamed five days before Monday's hearing, when Pelosi's portrait was unveiled at the U.S. Capitol. That portrait hangs in the Speaker's Lobby, where rioter Ashli Babbitt was shot and killed on Jan. 6, 2021 as more than 2,000 people stormed the building in an effort to halt the certification of President Joe Biden's electoral college victory.
In a statement on Monday, Pelosi said the committee's executive summary of its findings"documents the sinister plot to subvert the Congress, shred the Constitution and halt the peaceful transfer of power" in"painstaking detail." Pelosi sheltered in a secure location on Capitol Hill as the Jan. 6 attack unfolded, when some rioters stormed her office and others could be heard asking,"Where's Nancy?" David DePape, the man accused of breaking into Pelosi's San Francisco home and attacking her husband earlier his year, allegedly asked the same question.
