WASHINGTON, D.C.—House Speaker Nancy Pelosi attempted to pay tribute to baseball legend Willie Mays for his 90th birthday last week in a heartfelt message on social media.
In an unfortunate mixup, she instead shared an image of Carl Carlson from the Simpsons.
"Let me be clear," said Nancy Pelosi. "This was all my staff's fault and it had nothing to do with me. I know Willie's face like the back of my hand. I met him at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant 30 years ago. He's a lovely, lovely musician of color. Good morning! Sunday morning!"
Pelosi's staff quickly apologized for the blunder and replaced the picture with a photograph of Samuel L. Jackson.

The invasion people have been anticipating has been happening right under our noses all along."
"The Democratic Party would be winning in a landslide if it weren't for that confounded Constitution," said House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. "We have so many great ideas on how to win, but people keep saying things like 'Hey, that's illegal' or 'That's literally a crime.' It's becoming disheartening."
"This is way easier," said Democratic Governor Abigail Spanberger. "We're tackling the real issue, which is Republicans being allowed to vote at all. There will be no more campaigning, no more counting ballots. That stuff is such a hassle anyway."
