.@SpeakerPelosi at her weekly presser says Biden hosting McConnell/McCarthy yesterday and GOP senators today at WH shows "he's making every attempt" to get a bipartisan infrastructure deal.

"I think it is bearing fruit. We'll see"

Pelosi says Approps Chair Rosa DeLauro may file the Capitol security supplemental funding bill today and it could come to floor next week.

PELOSI goes off on @Rep_Clyde for saying the Jan. 6 insurrectionists were like "normal" tourists

"When people are threatening to hang the Vice President of the United States or the speaker ... I don't consider that normal."

Pelosi: "Multiple people were killed, over 140 police officers were injured. A gallows was put up and the attackers chanted, 'Hang the Vice President ... Normal?

"Some House Rs defended those actions saying the rioters were orderly and acting similar to a normal tourist visit."

.@SpeakerPelosi called @RepMTG's aggressive interaction w/@AOC a "verbal assault and real abuse of our colleague."

It's "beneath the dignity of a person serving in the Congress of the United States, and is a cause for trauma, and fear among members"

Pelosi says the alleged MTG "verbal assault" of AOC is "probably a matter for the Ethics Committee"

Does Pelosi disagree w/Colonial's decision to pay a ransom?

NDP: "The point is that we don't want people to think that there's money in it for them to threaten the security of a critical infrastructure in our country."

Pelosi on creation of an independent Jan. 6 commission ... She says she is "optimistic ... we have come closer"

Pelosi says big remaining issue is scope. GOP wants to broaden the scope: "We're not going down that path."

MTG on AOC: I was "talking to her, talking to her. You know what screaming is? Screaming is what people do when rockets are fired at them like Hamas terrorists are firing into Israel.

"I was talking to @AOC saying you need to debate me about the Green New Deal." Per Hill pool
