Newly elected Rep. Mayra Flores (R-TX) accused House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) of “pushing” her young daughter out of the way during a swearing-in ceremony last week.

In a video of the moment shared on social media, the California Democrat can be seen using her elbow to move the child away from her.

“I am so proud of my strong, beautiful daughter for not allowing this to faze her,” Flores tweeted, sharing the video. “She continued to smile and pose for the picture like a Queen. No child should be pushed to the side for a photo op. PERIOD!!”

During the ceremony, Pelosi welcomed the congresswoman to the Capitol and lower chamber and said she’s “grateful for her leadership and her beautiful family who is here today.”

She also wished the GOP lawmaker luck.

“Thank you, Congresswoman Flores, for your courage to run for office and best wishes for your success,” Pelosi said. “It’s an honor to work with you.”

Flores was elected to the seat vacated by Democratic Rep. Filemon Vela in the historically Democratic 34th Congressional District.

Know your place little brown one.

Yep. Watching it in slow-motion, Pelosi didn't react until she saw the girl's skin color, then the elbow moved into action.

What about the Trump endorsed Republican candidates who ARE RINOs? There are some: Mehmet Oz for example.

I love President Trump, but some RINOs are going to get past him because they are impossible to identify until they get into office and show their true colors.

I expect November will be good for MAGA overall, but we will still have out work cut out for us weeding out the RINOs.

And before anyone flames me for questioning Trump’s endorsements - I’m not saying I could do any better remember, but he’s only human. He makes mistakes - Mike Pence, for example.

I like having my personal space.

So do I. When you're part of a public appearance like that, you just don't get to have your personal space. Pelousy was way out of line there.

Recalls the video of barbara boxer ejecting a child from a seat onstage at a political event in San Francisco. Lib privilege doesn’t provide room for children.

“On the other hand I don’t like people getting too close to me either. I like having my personal space. The young girl hasn’t figured that out yet.”

No personal space allowed for group photos. I guess you haven’t figured that out yet.

She’s an ill-mannered “pushy” drunken bitch with a mouthful of marbles and a hatred of America.

Well she knows better but did it because she is able to do it and easily get away with it. Many people will not even know it took place.

How powerful people treat ordinary people speaks of their character or lack thereof.

Shoving a child, unless they are in danger, is inexcusable. Nancy will never believe how heavy that millstone around her neck really is going to be until she is sinking to bottom of the sea.

Matthew 19:14 "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven."

Matthew18:6 "But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea."

You are entirely correct.

You should remember the approved language, however.

It’s not “sub-humans”. It’s “deplorables”. Although in this case we are talking about a double reason for shunning personal contact.

Nancy thinks the family is “deplorable”, and she figures this child is probably a family planning mistake and shouldn’t be touching the grownups in any case.

I guess, when it comes to someone like Pelosi, I would rather laugh at her than hate her.

My post was filled with mockery, or was intended to be.

I’m sorry I offended you.
