>When was Pelosi in Korea?
>04 AUG 2022 timeframe
This video predates 2022. It was in an older Q drop. I think it might've been during Obama's second term or Trump's first couple of years in office. If you look at the video the caption under Nancy's name says Minority Leader
Either way, she has only one official visit that I know of to North Korea. That was in 1997.

The United States must embrace the paradox of aiding a hostile, authoritarian North Korean regime by sending food to its starving people for simple humanitarian reasons, Rep. Nancy Pelosi believes.
Pelosi, D-San Francisco, has just returned from a visit to the North Korean capital of Pyongyang with six congressional colleagues from the House Select Committee on Intelligence.
"I have never seen such poverty of spirit," she said Friday. "I have never seen anything as bleak, Orwellian, depressing and sad. (North Korea) is a place that is different from the rest of the world."
Pelosi took as hopeful signs North Korea's willingness to let the delegation visit and high-ranking officials' admission that the country is suffering famine.
"At least they are willing to admit the problem and reach out for help," she said.
On the other hand, "They blame (the famine) on everything except themselves - the fall of the Berlin Wall . . . drought, floods, U.S. sanctions," not on their governmental system and its failed agricultural policies, she said.
The notoriously secretive North Koreans would not permit the delegation out of Pyongyang; consequently, Pelosi and her colleagues did not view evidence of the reportedly widespread malnutrition that was the reason for their visit.
Nor will North Korea allow the U.S. government to monitor distribution of the 100,000 tons of food it is seeking. That task would be left to nongovernmental agencies such as Catholic Relief Services and the American Friends Service Committee, Pelosi said.
U.S. monitoring of foreign food distribution is a condition of providing that food, but Pelosi said she hopes to persuade Congress to modify that condition to substitute nongovernmental organizations as the monitoring agencies in North Korea.
It goes against the grain to provide food for a belligerent adversary like North Korea, Pelosi acknowledged. But "even if it bolsters the regime by solving a problem for them, it's important that we do that," she said. "What is more important is that people are starving, and Americans are compassionate."
The article mentions that she traveled there with the House Intel Committee. I just saw that the article wasn't in the internet archive and saw here >>17918071
Q said to:
>Archive immediately
>They have tried to 'cover' this
So I internet archived it here

And screen capped it for posterity if any anons want to save it in case it gets scrubbed from the internet forever. It wasn't an easy find…

Very interesting article. Suggests Chinese influence to the DNC and Clintons

Perhaps they went there for weapons, and they drilled into their heads to say the purpose of the mission was about addressing poverty, and since poverty was the cover story, that refrain stuck with her?

>Who else was on the intel committee at that time?
That time period was the 104th congress.
I found a PDF of the members of that congress and their committee assignments

A couple of months before Pelosi and friends showed up in North Korea, five Senators went there too led by Alaska's Ted Stevens in the same year of 1997.
What the fuck was going on in 1997 that Senators and House members were running to North Korea on two separate delegations?

The MSM articles at the time speak of a huge North Korean famine in 1997. Still, doesn't add up that a country we never go to, had two congressional delegations. Is this the origin of the nuke program?
