TRAGEDY!

I have to say, I’m a good deal short of desolated to hear of this.

Reports: Pelosi's Injuries in Luxembourg Are Quite Serious
Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is recovering at a hospital in Luxembourg. When it was first reported, the California liberal was reported to have suffered an undisclosed injury while on a congressional delegation. Katie wrote about the incident, adding that the injuries were severe enough that Pelosi would miss the rest of the trip’s events...

We know what the reported injury was, and it’s not uncommon for someone in their 80s. It’s also a serious injury: She tripped, fell down some steps, and fractured her hip (via NYT) [emphasis mine]:

Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi was hospitalized on Friday after being injured while traveling abroad on a bipartisan congressional delegation to Luxembourg, a spokesman said on Friday.

Ms. Pelosi, 84, “sustained an injury during an official engagement,” the spokesman, Ian Krager, said in a brief statement that provided no details on the nature of the injury or how it occurred. He said she was admitted to a hospital for evaluation.

Ms. Pelosi tripped going down marble stairs at the Grand Ducal Palace and took a hard fall, according to a person familiar with the incident who was not authorized to comment and spoke on condition of anonymity.

People close to Ms. Pelosi in California and Washington, D.C., speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak for her, said the former speaker fractured her hip when she fell. They said doctors were confident the damage could be repaired with a routine operation, but it was not yet clear whether that would be done in Luxembourg or in the United States.

Aww, that’s a shame. Reports that an obviously inebriated, elderly man clad in nothing but boxer shorts with a hammer in his hand had been observed fleeing the scene of the incident and cackling madly are unconfirmed at this juncture.

Any misguided soul who is shocked and/or disturbed by my complete lack of sympathy for the suffering of what is after all a fellow human being is hereby notified that, in light of all the damage and destruction this demon-fiend of a D卐M☭CRAT ProPol has wreaked upon the nation I grew up in, I do NOT consider Stretch Pee-losi or her like-minded cohort to be human at all.
