Pelosi claims she has 'respect for whistleblowers' despite dismissing testimony as 'ridiculous clown show'

Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said Sunday that she’s "not confident" in congressional testimony by IRS whistleblower Joseph Ziegler about Hunter Biden, calling the Republican-led hearing a "ridiculous clown show."

Pelosi was asked by CNN’s "State of the Union" anchor Dana Bash whether politics played a role in Wednesday’s hearing, when Ziegler came forward for the first time, joining his IRS supervisor Gary Shapley, to allege political interference in the prosecutorial decisions throughout the years-long federal probe into the president's son.

"Well, since you referenced the hearing, what a ridiculous clown show, again, on the part of the Republicans," Pelosi told Bash.

While Bash was asking about Wednesday’s hearing by the House Oversight Committee, Pelosi referenced a moment during a hearing the following day with Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., though she fumbled his name.

"What did they do, bring in Joe Kennedy talking about censorship, that he's being censored as he's talking to the world in a congressional hearing and showing pictures that had nothing to do with the essence–," she said.

"I think you mentioned Robert F. Kennedy," Bash corrected Pelosi before asking again about the whistleblower’s testimony.

"Do you feel confident no politics played at DOJ?" Bash asked the congresswoman.

"The U.S. attorney was a Trump appointee. A Trump appointee," Pelosi responded. "Now, I have respect for whistleblowers, but the fact is that, from the basis of that hearing, they didn't even have a fair shot at what they came to say in light of the clown show that was going on with pictures and Robert Kennedy and his ridiculous presentation."

"No, I'm not confident about what the whistleblower said," she said. "The U.S. attorney was a Trump attorney. This is their opinion. It was not the opinion of the others there."

What is the difference between KJP and Nancy Pelosi?

One is a cunning runt, the other is not.

Pelosi is a whore who parlayed her young attracitive self and her contacts and legacy of a Baltimore Crook to become the Speaker of the House of Representatives ot the United States of America.

Let that statement sink in and, after vomiting, vow to never back a Democrat!

And, mull over the story of Paula Pelosi, drunk and queer? “You Betcha!”

Never forget that the Pelosi, Romney and Kerry sons were part of Hunter Biden’s corruption web in the Ukraine. Pelosi will oppose any criminal investigations against the Bidens to protect her son. Sure that McConnel won’t be pressing for criminal investigations either. This corruption by the elites is rotting America.

Woman is garbage, so why does any normal person care what she says or thinks?

When you talk about experience in running clown shows you think Fancy Nancy.
