Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi was hospitalized after falling and fracturing her hip during an event in Luxembourg, sources close to the congresswoman told The New York Times.
She is “currently receiving excellent treatment from doctors and medical professionals,” a Pelosi spokesperson wrote in a statement Friday.
Pelosi tripped while descending a marble staircase at the Grand Ducal Palace and took a hard fall, The Times reported.

She now holds the position of "Speaker Emeriti".
It may well have been, “Nancy Pelosi with a fractured hip takes a fall.”
Shoulda held the handrail.
As vile a person as she is, please keep your comments classy.

Not a good thing for someone in their 80s - immobility takes an incredible toll on people that old.
First McConnell, now Pelosi. I wonder who’s pushing them.
Hip fracture? News here.
What? That woman wants us dead. Hope that hip fracture HURT and has a painful demise.

You know darn well it hurt, and perhaps she will not overcome this injury. I would not wish this injury on anyone.
I do wish she would just go away, though.
Hey Nanzi, retire asap.
Either voluntarily or with a dirt nap would be great, thanks…..
Gravity is not just a good idea. It’s the law!
Has anyone heard any news out of Luxembourg?
It’s been awful quiet on the continent. And for the incontinent.
If the video is ever released I’ll watch it hundreds of times and add my own sound effects.
This apparently happened in front of a lot of witnesses, please tell me there is video of this I need a good laugh..considering what this woman did to Trump, setting up Jan 6th, putting innocent people to this day behind bars for NOTHING, etc etc etc yeah she got her karma
No. I refuse.
Gravity is not just a good idea. It’s the law!
