Rep. Nancy Pelosi’s event with economist Paul Krugman at CUNY’s Graduate Center was interrupted four times by hecklers. They accused Pelosi of being a “w.ar cr1minal” and a “sad old drunk,” criticizing her foreign policy, alleged corruption, and supposed drinking habit.
One heckler claimed she should be in “the depths of hell” for her role in the Iraq war, asking why she didn’t admit there were no WMDs and accusing her of misleading the U.S. into war and impoverishing Afghans. Another mentioned the Nord Stream pipeline, blaming Pelosi for leaving Germans without energy.
