Nancy Pelosi fell in her ‘very high’ heels, then powered through pain for a photo with a broken hip, GOP Rep. McCaul says
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was donning “very high” heels when she broke her hip in a nasty fall on marble steps at a World War II battlefield site in Luxembourg last Friday — then ostensibly powered through the pain to pose for a group photo.
House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul (R-Texas), who helped Pelosi to her feet after the tumble at Grand Ducal Palace, opened up on Tuesday about how the 84-year-old Democrat got injured during the bipartisan trip.
“I was right next to her. She likes to wear high heels — very high. She was on one of her last steps on this marble staircase that didn’t have a railing and she lost her footing and fell to the ground,” McCaul, 62, told reporters.
“I immediately helped pick her up. And we took a picture of that. You can see me holding her up by her hand and then very soon thereafter, a vehicle showed up and took her to the hospital.”

A Democratic House committee on Monday recommended that Virginia Rep. Gerry Connolly take over the party’s top spot on the House Oversight Committee, a key vote that saw challenger Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez finish a close second.
