Nancy Pelosi: Most accomplished Speaker

[Trigeek]

Of all time

 

[Ace of Knights]

Far from it. She was historical being a woman of power, but Dems lost far more elections than they won with her at the helm.

Pelosi is a smelly cünt.

Pelosi is a smelly cünt.

Why do you say that?

Pelosi is now worth close to $200 million after decades of insider trades. Forget term limits! If we restricted active trading by families of these elected officials we wouldn't need term limits. These bleeding heart con artists tend to sure make a fortune for themselves. Cough...Sam Bankman...

I'm touched by BCHailMary's concern about corruption in government.*

BCHailMary's post reminds me of a 'WTF?' moment I had listening to Patriot Radio during a drive last evening.

Believe it or not, the same radio talking head who opined that Trump's planned insurrection on Jan. 6th was "nothing to see," said last night that the new Republican majority in the House will mean a change in the leadership in the various House committees and -- most importantly, he said -- subpoena power soooooo that...(cue trumpet fanfare)....this country can FINALLY get to the bottom of the Hunter Biden case

I. Kid. You. Not.

If the tables were reversed and it was DJTJ's computer with hookers, crack, and selling his father's influence, DJT would have been impeached again. CNN/MSNBC would would not be talking about anything else, the FBI would investigate, and Congress would have spent another $30+ million doing their investigation/impeachment.

Since it was a Biden kid, we have to remember that his other son was a veteran who died, that addiction affects the entire family, and there is nothing to see as its not really his laptop/ its a Russian hoax/ its all a farce to make the Dems look bad.

I just roll my eyes and ask, "Is this really the best we can do?" A corrupt octogenarian or an angry octogenarian?

LOL. A MAGA actually whining "if the roles were reversed..."

I'm not MAGA. Just calling a spade a spade. You're the one whining about MAGA having subpoena power. I get what you're saying though, you have no problem when someone you supported does something wrong. The ends justify the means.

... nothing to see as its not really his laptop/ its a Russian hoax/ its all a farce to make the Dems look bad ...

Here's the thing ...

The Democrats didn't allegedly 'look bad' because of the existence of the laptop.

The Democrats actually 'look really bad' because, for 2 years, not only were they able to censor and downplay it, but ... got over 50 intelligence officials and the entire media and Big Tech industry to prevent any reporting of it as best as they could ... using government funds and agencies.

As I always say about Nixon with Watergate ... at least he used his own people.

Just like the FISA Courts in 2015-2016 ... this is using taxpayer institutions. We literally have a federal government ordering privacy entities to censor, disavow and prevent any discussion.

And that's the problem! People actually condone this!

Same thing with people wanting the government to take away Musk's wealth, and say SpaceX was subsidized by the government and that the taxpayer owns everything he created, or that his technologies are gimmicks. If you knew anything about the United Launch Alliance (ULA), let alone NASA, you would literally

It's cheering on a big, authoritarian, controlling federal government, and kicking someone who is a private citizen. I never liked Trump, but it started with Trump, and now it's getting 10x worse with Musk. I've never seen people be pro-powerful government, pro-oligarchy, anti-innovation, anti-entrepreneur. Say what you want about Trump, but Musk ... that's getting old!

Pelosi lost me years ago the second she stated the US federal goverment was behind a lot of private innovations with little to no taxpayer moeny involved, incluidng the Internet outside of the NSF's control too. It's like she was saying the federal government is the innovator and end-all, be-all, and that only the oligarchy she funds is viable in the US.

To me ... that's just ****ed up. And the proof is in how Musk is being treated regarding SpaceX, before we even get to Twitter.

This is why 'going green' is so ****ed, just like California fire fighting has been. Greenwashing is everywhere. Same with downplaying private, non-Big Tech R&D, manufacturing innovation and other things.

I haven't seen you around here before but before you try to paint me as a Hunter Biden defender, I challenge you to find any post where I've ever been remotely supportive of the President's son. Frankly, I could give a rat's ass about him. If he's guilty of less than half the sh*t that the Right's been obsessed with, I say throw the damn book at the scumbag.

I just find it more-than-a-little-curious that the same people who are apoplectic about the President's son can shrug their shoulders in indifference at our former President's direct involvement in orchestrating a fcuking insurrection for crying out loud!

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. The Republicans were expecting a big Red Wave as they talked about rising inflation, rising crime, and border security as the Midterm elections approached. The results might indicate the voting public didn't believe these Trumpsters were really serious about governing and would revert back to their 'batsh*t crazy' form once the election was all over.

So what happened? The Republicans get a razor-thin majority in the House and what's the first thing they announce? A comprehensive crime bill? Their answer to rising inflation? The introduction of a new immigration bill? Nope, they announce they're going to be...(cue drumroll...) checking out Hunter Biden's laptop!!!

Yeah, it's a frickin' mystery why the GOP didn't do better in the Midterms.

 

[chemmie]

Why do you say that?

Because she is.
I'm super liberal and Pelosi sucks.

 

[DaShuckster]

Pelosi will look more and more like The Most Accomplished Speaker of All Time as the Republicans prepare to take over the House.
