Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi has denied allegations that she orchestrated a campaign within the Democratic Party to force President Joe Biden to withdraw from his re-election bid two weeks ago. In a recent interview with Lesley Stahl on August 3, Pelosi stated, 'I did not call one person,' refuting claims that she led the effort to remove Biden from the Democratic ticket. Despite these denials, multiple reports and commentators suggest that Pelosi played a significant role in the decision.
