House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) was ready to fight for democracy literally.

The congresswoman, 82, was asked Monday during the annual Senator Barbara Boxer Lecture at the University of California, Berkeley, what she was thinking when it became clear police had lost control during the U.S. Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021.

In terms of the assault on the Capitol, democracy and Constitution what was going through my mind? Being raised in a family of all boys I was like, Let me at em, Pelosi said. But the security did not have that same thought, and they just pulled me from the podium.
