Pelosi’s Daughter Disses Jill Biden In Growing Family Feud

House Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi‘s (D-CA) daughter, Alexandria Pelosi, took a swipe at first lady Jill Biden in a burgeoning clash between two of the most powerful families in Democrat circles.

In a recent interview, Jill Biden voiced displeasure with how Nancy Pelosi fueled a Democrat revolt against President Joe Biden during the 2024 election. Now, Alexandria Pelosi has sounded off with a not-so-subtle Shakespeare reference.

“If I was Lady McBiden, I’d put on my big girl pants, play the long game and think about my husband’s legacy,” said Alexandra Pelosi, according to POLITICO‘s senior political columnist and politics bureau chief Jonathan Martin. “There aren’t that many people left in America who have something nice to say about Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi is one of them.”

Martin’s report stressed that Alexandra Pelosi “made clear she was speaking only for herself,” but also noted the “deafening silence from the White House in response to a request for comment marks the culmination of the bitter feud between the president and onetime speaker, two of the age’s most prominent Democrats and the bookends of the party’s Obama-era high and Trump restoration low.”

Although he won the Democratic Party’s 2024 nomination with the support of more than 14 million primary voters, then-81-year-old Joe Biden bowed out of the White House race in July following a fumbling debate performance against former President Donald Trump under pressure from allies who raised concerns about his age, mental acuity, and electability. Vice President Kamala Harris, with Biden’s endorsement, quickly garnered support and became the Democrats’ presidential nominee. Harris ended up losing to Trump.

During this time, CNN reported Pelosi privately told Biden that polls showed he could not defeat Trump like he did in 2020 and that he could hurt other members of his party in down-ticket races if he did not bow out. And, in what is widely viewed as a key tipping point — an interview on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe ” — Pelosi emphasized that she would support whatever decision Biden made about his political future at a time when the president was already insisting he would not leave the race. “It’s up to the president to decide if he is going to run,” she said. Her remarks on MSNBC reportedly emboldened more Democrats to turn on Biden.

The Washington Post published a report on Wednesday about its “exit interview” with Jill Biden in which the first lady was quoted mentioning how she was thinking “a lot” about relationships and took a dig at Nancy Pelosi. “We were friends for 50 years,” Jill Biden said. “It was disappointing.”

As reported by Martin, Nancy Pelosi has received a wave of “messages, flowers and calls of concern from heads of state, colleagues in both parties and even royalty” since breaking her hip in Europe last month, but “it’s who she has not heard from that’s most remarkable, and that has infuriated Pelosi’s friends and family: Joe and Jill Biden.”

Martin wrote that he was informed that Nancy Pelosi has tried multiple times to speak with Joe Biden, only to be turned down. “She’s been told they’re not over it, don’t make more overtures because he’s blaming her,” an insider told the columnist. Martin’s report also noted that “Biden did briefly chat with Pelosi, her husband, Paul, and daughter Christine at a White House holiday party last month. But that encounter only served to remind them of the rupture.”

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
