Nancy Pelosi refuses to denounce socialism as she seeks another term as speaker
The leftwing ideology has become a growing wedge issue within the Democratic Party

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., is refusing to denounce socialism as the left-wing ideology continues to drive a wedge within the Democratic Party -- and as she works to lock down enough support for another term as speaker.
Fox News had requested comment several times -- including multiple phone calls to Pelosi's office -- with inquiries about whether she opposed the ideology and whether she would allow any self-described socialists elected in the Democratic caucus to hold leadership positions in the House of Representatives.
During a press conference on Friday, Pelosi acknowledged that there was a "difference of opinion" among members of her caucus as a rift between moderates and progressives appears to have expanded following the 2020 election.
