- Nancy Pelosi hospitalized after she ‘sustained an injury’ on official trip to Luxembourg (newsbreak.com)
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has been hospitalized in Luxembourg due to an unspecified injury sustained during an official event.
Pelosi, 84, was part of a bipartisan delegation marking the 80th anniversary of World War II’s Battle of the Bulge. Her spokesman stated that she is receiving medical attention and will miss the remaining events of the trip.
The nature of Pelosi’s injury remains undisclosed, but sources say she tripped and fell while attending an event with other Congress members.
Pelosi’s hospitalization follows a recent incident involving Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, who tripped and fell in the Senate, spraining his wrist and cutting his face.
Despite stepping down from her leadership position two years ago, Pelosi remains an active figure in Congress, representing her San Francisco district. She recently played a role in urging President Biden to leave the presidential ticket.
