Speaker Nancy Pelosi flew into Taipei on Tuesday after weeks of international speculation and threats of retaliation from the Chinese Communist Party.
Pelosi was the first US House Speaker to visit Taiwan since Newt Gingrich in 1997.

On Wednesday Nancy Pelosi gave a speech to the Taiwanese where she started babbling in confusion.
Pelosi went off script and started talking about President “Benjamin Franklin” who was an inventor and statesman but never a president.
This was frightening.
Crazy Nancy almost sparked World War III.

I watched the video, she talked about Benjamin mentioning freedom and democracy go together, you can’t have one without the other, the go hand in hand. This wasn’t a Biden moment. As much as dementia Pelosi is, this isn’t one of those moments.
That guy shot Rambo!
What Nancy Pelosi said:
“In our earliest days of our founding of the country Benjamin Franklin, our Presidency, said “Freedom and democracy. Freedom and democracy and one thing, security here. If we don’t have . . . we can’t have either if we don’t have both. So, security, economics, security, economy. And again they’re all in government. They’re all related. And we want somehow to always have freedom with security and we’re not backing away from them. Okay?”
What Ben Franklin actually wrote:
“Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”
