Boehner, Pelosi read mean tweets in video
Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) are willing to come face-to-face with some of their critics — in tweet form.
The two are among the lawmakers who read mean tweets about themselves in a new video released Wednesday to promote the 2015 Radio & Television Correspondents Association Dinner.
