Nancy Pelosi took hypocrisy to new heights during the memorial for the police officer who died after the Capitol riots — and that’s saying something, for her.
The newfound faux reverence for law enforcement from the House speaker and her “defund the police” comrades after cheering on and inciting violence against cops most of last year is grotesque.
Despite Pelosi’s nauseating insincerity as she presided over the two-day commemoration of Brian Sicknick, the dignity and grace of his grieving parents and police colleagues mercifully elevated the honors high above tawdry political opportunism.
Because, of course, what else is it but cynical opportunism of Pelosi to wait 27 days after Sicknick’s death to offer his family the opportunity to bury him with full honors, less than a week before her second impeachment show trial of Donald Trump hits the Senate.
It’s for the same reason Pelosi mutters “the enemy within” about suspected Trump supporters, whether Republican colleagues or the thousands of National Guardsmen she keeps in the freezing cold as human props around the Capitol to traumatize its occupants and remind the world of the horrors of Trump.
Her apprentice drama queen, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, even accused Sen. Ted Cruz of trying to murder her that day, labeled Republican members of Congress insurrectionists and released hours of Instagram videos reliving her terror as a non-existent mob banged on her door and forced her to hide in a bathroom, even though her office is in a separate building from the Capitol, as her near-neighbor, Rep. Nancy Mace, pointed out in a tweet. “My office is 2 doors down. Insurrectionists never stormed our hallway.”

murdered by the brother of Mickey’s SS.

America will NOT stand for this a coven
of pedophiles and their prolifically pedophilic sons.
[tawdry political opportunism]
The most nauseating scene: the Alleged President and his wife, “the Doctor,” walk in and solemnly stare at the coffin.
A disgusting display of hypocrisy.
I have to say it was a genius move on Pelosi’s part. The Republicans were too dim or not cynical enough to do something similar for the black Missouri cop who was killed by a BLM activist.
Another way to put this - the current GOP are good losers. The problem is they’re not personally losing out on anything. That honor belongs to the people who voted for them.

If only that were true.
Democrats' Defund the Police" rallying cry cost them several House seats which Nancy predicted they'd win.
Charming woman.
On ice for a month so the Dems can keep the drama rolling right into next weeks senate trial. Sick people using a corpse as a prop for their agenda.

These three words summed up the proceedings. The rest was just filler. Can’t exactly submit a three word column, though.”
Where have I read this before?
Oh yeah, Red Storm Rising with the politboro and their fake tears mourning the young octoberists from Pskov.
All political theater.
