An epic moment between Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and an ex-Fox News reporter happened Thursday morning.
The reporter asked, “Do you hate the President, Mrs. Speaker?” as she was leaving the stage.
Pelosi’s initial response is a little difficult to hear as she is no longer in reach of the microphone. However, she quickly decides her words need to be heard and makes her way back to the podium.
“I don’t hate anybody. … “And as a Catholic, I resent your using the word ‘hate’ in a sentence that addresses me. I don’t hate anyone.
“So don’t mess with me when it comes to words like that.”
Watch Pelosi’s brilliant clapback:

The Sinclair reporter, James Rosen, who asked Pelosi if she “hates” the President, left Fox News last year after allegations he made sexual advances toward three female Fox News journalists.
