God, I love this woman to pieces.
Good for her! BTW, one of her aides and a WH staffer have come down with “breakthrough” Covid (they had both been fully vaccinated). May be attributable to their meetings with Texas Democrats in DC. It is the delta variant in all cases, IIRC. Why we should all still be wearing masks in enclosures and public places…
Pelosi is one shrewd tough old gal. I love her too.
YES. She wields her power with majesty and justice!
Nancy’s gavel…like Thor’s hammer…can only be used by those who are worthy!
Banks and Jordan, OUT!
I love how she accepted three and rejected two. Gives her the upper hand in the press. I accepted most of his picks. These two are unacceptable. Plus, I gave him one of my own in Liz Cheney.
“With respect for the integrity of the investigation, with an insistence on the truth and with concern about statements made and actions taken by these Members, I must reject the recommendations of Representatives Banks and Jordan to the Select Committee."
“This concludes today’s lesson.”
I am leaning toward wearing my mask in crowded rooms and spaces for the remainder of my days.
Bwhahahaha!!! Hahahaha!!! Excellent!!
Can wait for the screaming about “That Nancy Pelosi” to begin.
3…2…1…
me, too. It also helps with pollen allergies, cold and flu season, and smog/smoke…
Insightful analysis—thank you.
Ha, ha. I’m picturing McCarthy straining to pick it up!
She proved me wrong! Good. I’ll gladly eat that crow for dinner with a smile.
Such a brill move on her part. I still remember watching that moment in awe and respect.
Not only that, but she accepted one of the three who voted against certification of the election results. She avoids nixing just Jordan (which would put him into outrage overdrive, and he would insist that it’s a personal attack), shows her fearlessness by nixing Banks despite his experience (and to punish him for his recent comments), but then accepts Troy Nehls to show that she is not afraid to have a “Big Lie” supporter on the committee - but Jordan and Banks are beyond the pale.
Nehls won’t get anywhere near the media attention that Banks or Jordan would.
Outrageous! Pelosi rejecting these two picks is LITERALLY worse than the Holocaust! I call reverse racism, misandry and a virulently anti-former assistant wrestling coach who failed to report blatant acts of pedophilia agenda!
Banks and Jordan probably think this is a feather in their cap and will do the Empty Greene stunt and use it to raise $$$
