Democrat Nancy Pelosi, age 84, is receiving care in a hospital after sustaining an unspecified injury during an official trip alongside a bipartisan group of House members to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge. Despite her circumstances, her spokesperson reported that Pelosi is in good hands and aims to return home to the U.S. soon while continuing to perform her duties from the hospital. Pelosi has had a storied political career, having first served as House Speaker from 2007 to 2011 and again from 2019 until her resignation earlier this year. She remains active in Congress, recently securing another term. The delegation she was part of is participating in various anniversary events with veterans and military personnel; however, due to her injury, Pelosi will not be able to attend further activities. This incident comes in the wake of another notable injury in Congress, where outgoing Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell recently fell, resulting in a sprained wrist and facial cuts.
