<p>Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) faced backlash online following the news of former President Donald Trump&#8217;s indictment after she claimed that Trump would have the opportunity to prove his innocence at trial.</p>
<p>The indictment stems from a five-year investigation surrounding an alleged $130,000 hush money payment to porn actress Stormy Daniels and whether the money was improperly recorded in business records and if that improper recording was used to conceal or commit a second crime.</p>
<p>&#8220;The Grand Jury has acted upon the facts and the law,&#8221; the former House speaker tweeted. &#8220;No one is above the law, and everyone has the right to a trial to prove innocence. Hopefully, the former President will peacefully respect the system, which grants him that right.&#8221;</p>
<p>Pelosi&#8217;s remarks generated thousands of responses pointing out how her statement about on the U.S. justice system was false.</p>
<p>Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro tweeted, &#8220;Uh it&#8217;s &#8216;innocent until proven guilty&#8217; not opportunity to &#8216;prove innocence&#8217;.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;In the United States we don&#8217;t &#8216;prove innocence,'&#8221; actor Dean Cain said. &#8220;We are presumed innocent until proven guilty. How do you not know this?&#8221;</p>
<p>Federalist senior editor David Harsanyi tweeted, &#8220;Why do we think she said this &#8216;mistakenly?&#8217; This is exactly how these people were talking about the Kavanaugh smears, as well.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Are you truly this ignorant? This imbecilic? This misguided? This fascistic?&#8221; professor Gad Saad tweeted. &#8220;A &#8216;trial to prove innocence&#8217;? Are you familiar with the concept of presumption of innocence as the DEFAULT a priori position? You are a disgrace.&#8221;</p>

<p>Former Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY) tweeted, &#8220;Nancy Pelosi is dead wrong here. Does she really have no clue that the burden is not on a defendant to prove their innocence at trial?&#8221;</p>
<p>Political commentator Stephen L. Miller added, &#8220;Nancy Pelosi has the right to a trial to prove her innocence on obvious insider trading.&#8221;</p>
