Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has been admitted to a hospital after suffering an injury.
Pelosi was apparently on her way to Luxembourg for a bipartisan event marking the 80th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge.
While travelling, she sustained some type of injury during an official engagement.
The 84-year-old is said to be receiving “excellent” treatment from doctors, but the nature of her injury has not yet been revealed.

An unfortunate trend of accidents and injuries have become more frequent for political figures in the United States.
This brings attention to the fact that many of these political figures are in their 70s or 80s.
Calls for term limits have become more common over the last several years, as we’ve also seen injuries to other political figures such as Mitch McConnell and Joe Biden recently.
