The crowdfunding operation was successful, but the patient still died — at least in San Francisco. Erica Kious will close down her hair salon after getting accused by Nancy Pelosi of conducting a political “set up” against the House speaker. Kious told Tucker Carlson that Pelosi’s accusations unleashed attacks on her and her business, and that’s she’s afraid to return to San Francisco at all:

San Francisco salon owner Erica Kious said she is closing her business after the infamous visit by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Fox News reported.

“I am actually done in San Francisco and closing my doors, unfortunately,” Kious told Tucker Carlson on Wednesday night.

“I started to just get a ton of phone calls, text messages, emails, all my Yelp reviews… saying that they hope I go under and that I fail,” she told the host about her eSalon. “So just a lot of negativity towards my business.” …

On Wednesday night, Kious said all the negativity has made her hesitant to return to the city, where she has lived for 15 years.

...
What happens now? CBS News notes that the GoFundMe project explicitly advertised that Kious would relocate the business, and clearly it foresaw a need to get out of Frisco to do so:

This was probably Pelosi's intent. The restaurants who've been providing her and her associates with indoor seating these past five months will think twice before revealing their security video.

I can't honestly say that I blame her. If she does open again,it is almost a certainty that she will be physically attacked.

The only question is by who,and when,and nobody can answer either.

I think she ought to run for Nancy's congressional seat, myself.
