Fact

Newschecker ran a reverse image search, which led us to the same video shared on X on June 24, 2022, confirming that it was not after the 2024 elections.

A further search led us to this Deadline article, dated June 24, 2022, stating that the then House Speaker Nancy Pelosi attacked the Supreme Court’s landmark ruling overturning Roe V Wade. “There’s no point in saying good morning, because it certainly is not one,” Pelosi told reporters on Capitol Hill, as she called the ruling “cruel “,”outrageous and heart-wrenching.”

Similar reports can be seen here and here, confirming that 84-year-old Pelosi, a California Democrat, was blasting the Supreme Court’s ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 decision that established a constitutional right to an abortion. The official transcript of Pelosi’s remarks, dated June 24, 2022, during her weekly press conference in the Capitol Visitor Centre can be seen here.
