Pelosi House COUP
We were all hoping that former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) would just go away, but the complete opposite is happening.
With Donald Trump winning the election, Pelosi is now working behind the scenes to reshape leadership in the House.
With Rep. Nadler (D-N.Y.) dropping out of the race for House Judiciary ranking member, it seems pretty clear that it is Pelosi, not Minority Leader Jeffries (D-N.Y.), calling the shots.
Had Kamala Harris won this election, the backroom whispers were that Pelosi was going to serve this final term, then ride off into the sunset.
With Trump winning, Pelosi is back in her stop the bad orange man at all costs mode, so she is trying to reshape leadership with people who will continue to push her agenda regarding Trump.
So, it made perfect sense when Pelosi reportedly backed Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) over Nadler.
Not only is Raskin about 15 years younger than Nadler, but he is on board with trying to remove Donald Trump at all costs.
Raskin has repeatedly talked about using the 14th Amendment to remove Trump, which is why Trump has to be careful when he issues January 6 pardons.
If Trump issues a pardon to someone who has been convicted of insurrection or a derivative, such as sedition, Dems will say Trump has given aid and comfort to an insurrectionist, and they will try to impeach him.
While most Democrats are mum on this, Senator Fetterman (D-PA) believes it is time for Pelosi to move on.
He stated, “She really tried to — what’s the word I’m looking for? — she embraced this, ‘she’s the godmother, she’s the enforcer.’
“And now she’s blaming Biden. Well, you can’t have it both ways.
“You got what you wanted, and now you’re still blaming Biden. I think it’s really ironic that you have a woman at age 84, and she is still hanging on.
“Why not give a younger generation an opportunity to occupy that seat?”
If Democrats try to block Trump, it could really come back to hurt them. America spoke pretty loudly in this last election, but Democrats are just not getting the message.
