Watch live as Pelosi gives news conference following Biden’s State of the Union address

Nancy Pelosi, speaker of the US House of Representatives, is holding a briefing with journalists.

She is speaking days after Joe Biden made his State of the Union address on Tuesday, which included an embarrassing gaffe.

Ms Pelosi herself has since been criticised online as some noticed her rubbing her knuckles and grinding her teeth while Mr Biden spoke.
