The daughter of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has told Jill Biden to 'put her big girl pants on' in a savage rant.
Alexandra Pelosi has shared some very choice words for the outgoing first lady following her comments about Nancy after she became a vocal proponent of her husband, Joe Biden, stepping out of the presidential race.
In the rant, Alexandra went as far as to dub Jill 'Lady McBiden', referencing Lady MacBeth - AKA the evil wife who controlled her husband from behind-the-scenes in the Shakespearean play.

"If I was Lady McBiden, I’d put on my big girl pants, play the long game and think about my husband’s legacy," Alexandra told Politico over the weekend.
"There aren’t that many people left in America who have something nice to say about Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi is one of them."
It comes after Jill opened up about her relationship with Nancy in an interview published last week.
"We were friends for 50 years," she told the Washington Post.
"Let’s just say I was disappointed with how it unfolded," Jill added, referring to Nancy's alleged role in Joe's ousting as the party’s 2024 presidential candidate. "I don’t know. I learned a lot about human nature."
Biden was urged to step down from the presidency re-election bid following his debate last June against Donald Trump, who is set to be inaugurated later on this afternoon (20 January).
Nancy's allies have claimed she didn't pressure Biden to step aside from the role.
"There were no threats," an inside source told Politico. "She just told him the truth - he was losing in every poll and people had lost confidence."
She did, however, appear on MSNBC’s Morning Joe suggesting Biden hadn’t decided about dropping out just a matter of days after he penned a letter to members of Congress insisting he would stay in the 2024 race.
Jill previously accused Melania Trump of breaking a major first lady tradition.
In an exit interview with the Washington Post, Jill revealed Melania did not attend a tea she had invited her to at the White House - a long-held tradition for incoming and outgoing first ladies during the presidential transition.
This prompted Jill to then give Trump a note to pass along to his wife.
"I congratulated her and I offered help," Jill said of the note, but didn't end up hearing back from Melania until Jimmy Carter's state funeral earlier this month (9 January) when Melania thanked Jill 'during pleasantries'.
