You can trust if something has to do with former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), it’s going to be just a bit off-center.

Pelosi’s daughter Alexandra told the New York Times that her mother did something unusual after a man attacked her father in the family home in San Francisco.

“I think that weighed really heavy on her soul. I think she felt really guilty,” said Pelosi’s daughter Alexandra, the New York Times reported Saturday.

“I think that really broke her. Over Thanksgiving, she had priests coming, trying to have an exorcism of the house and having prayer services,” she added.

But if the story is true, it certainly wasn’t the local priests. The pastor of Pelosi’s church, Fr. Arturo Albano, said his people were not involved in any such thing, “As far as I know, no exorcism or priest services were performed at her home,” Albano told the New York Post. She’s also not in good graces with the local Archbishop, Salvatore Cordileone, who banned her from receiving Holy Communion earlier in the year.

So unless she someone solicited priests who were not local, this sounds like a questionable story. But it’s sort of typical of Pelosi, who tends to talk very publically about her Catholicism, claiming she’s devout. Yet, she is supportive of things like abortion, which shows her to be somewhat less than devout.

But some immediately saw the irony in the story of Pelosi trying to “exorcise evil spirits” from her home after all the harm that she has done to the country over the years. Some asked if she would be moving out as a result of the rite. Others said it must not have happened or worked if she was still there.

“Will she also be coordinating one for the speaker’s office?” wondered Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.).

“Hopefully Nancy doesn’t vanish after the exorcism,” tweeted Terry Mann.

Bill Donohue, president of the Catholic League, urged Pelosi to get “help” — from a psychiatrist.

“The woman is positively conflicted. She wears her Catholicism on her sleeve while basically sticking her middle finger at the Catholic Church every opportunity she has.”

“If it’s genuine, she needs psychiatric help,” Donohue continues. “And if not, it’s another example of Nancy Pelosi exploiting the Catholic Church for her own personal gain.”

Fr. Vincent Lampert, exorcist for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Indianapolis said exorcism would be appropriate for “demonic infestation” or where you might have the “presence of evil” after a crime. He said you might say a “particular prayer, inviting the presence of God back into the house, casting out any presence of evil that may be there.”

Someone caught the responses to the story at an unhappy coincidental number.

I don’t know if she had any real exorcism, but fortunately for the rest of us, she was “exorcised” out of her position by our votes in the midterms, and things are already immensely better.
