‘Never Any Question’: Nancy Pelosi Says She Never Believed Her Brother’s Accuser in Trial for Infamous Gang Rape of Underage Girls

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi made clear she does not believe all women who accuse men of sexual misconduct, a new book on the powerful California Democrat reveals.

“We loved him and trusted him, and it was never any question,” Pelosi told USA Today’s Susan Page about her brother “Roosie,” or Franklin Delano Roosevelt D’Alesandro, who was charged and then acquitted with a group of other young men–all of whom were convicted except for Pelosi’s brother–of raping two underage girls in the early 1950s.

Pelosi made the comments to Page in an interview for her just-published book, Madam Speaker: Nancy Pelosi and the Lessons of Power. Page, USA Today’s Washington Bureau Chief, sat for extensive interviews with Pelosi for the book. She also moderated last year’s vice presidential debate between former Vice President Mike Pence and Vice President Kamala Harris.

These revelations are potentially politically explosive for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, they bring to the forefront of political discussion the gruesome details of the allegations against her now-deceased brother yet again—which have not been explored in decades. They were briefly mentioned in a Baltimore Sun obituary for Pelosi’s brother in 2007, but the facts of the case—including the fact that everyone else charged was convicted and the judge’s curious instructions to the jury ahead of their deliberations on the charges against the then-mayor’s son—have not been fleshed out in the modern era politically.

  1. If the brother was anything like Nancy he should have been charged probably let off because the judge was a friend of the Pelosi family. She is nothing short of being a loose cannon and should be impeached and sent to the basement where Biden should have stayed.

  2. The trial for her brother was moved from Baltimore and was held here in Salisbury in the Wicomico County Court House.

  3. That is how the Mafia works and her family was notorious for that. That is why to this day she does not think she has to answer to anyone!!!!
