Nancy Pelosi slams President Trump over threatened deportations
WNYW-TV ^ | June 24, 2019 | Alan Fram, The Associated Press

Posted on 06/24/2019 7:26:59 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called President Donald Trump's threatened coast-to-coast deportations of migrants "outside the circle of civilized human behavior" and the Senate's top Democrat labeled the warning "the very definition of callousness" on Monday in remarks that underscored the gap between the two sides over immigration.

The two leaders spoke after a weekend tweet in which Trump said he would give Congress two weeks to solve "the Asylum and Loopholes problems" along the border with Mexico. "If not, Deportations start!" he tweeted.

The president had earlier warned that there would soon be a nationwide sweep aimed at "millions" of people living illegally in the U.S., including families. The sweeps were supposed to begin Sunday, but Trump said he postponed them....

I never claimed to be an expert on how a speaker is chosen, so what?. Calling me uneducated(high school graduate , two years of college) was a mistaken assumption on your part. As to educating me , no you’ve only made me realize how quickly I was able to get free parking in your head and what a pompous ass you are.

I’m not sure what the exact rule is. I believe it has to do with having been in the house previously or in when voted on. Unless a senator was in the house previously or not may matter. But no senator would step down to do it. The reps are there for 2 years and the senators run every 6. Nasty may lose bigly but Chuckie can’t save her. The Dems are on the highway to Hell and there’s no stops. This is a breaking point for them and may be the crossroads for a civil conflict for each side and I believe we all have made our choice.

Yeah. I wasn’t so sure on if a sitting Senator could be made Speaker. Typical the majority party in the House chooses the Speaker. From what I’ve found out there are no real rules or regulations in place for choosing one, that is to say it’s not an elected position but given the fact that Speaker of The House is third in line of succession seems to be a pretty, I dunno, freewheeling kind of way to go about it.

As I said before...this info is what the average 5th grader KNEW, long before even getting out of the 5th grade!

It appears that you don't understand the meaning of the word "educated".

Fact...you WERE "uneducated" ( whether never having been taught about this matter,in ANY school/class you were even in or ignoring what you were being taught ) on this point, until, I educated you, about it, a bit earlier.

Taking such uncalled for umbrage, over a word you are having grave difficulty understanding the meaning of, and then lashing out at me with that uncalled for, childish prose, is not helping you any and neither is this reply.

You never managed to get "free parking" in my head at all. I'd already forgotten all about you, until this reply. OTOH...I apparently managed to burn through all of your super emotional nerve ending. Pity that...

They are voted on by house membership. So it depends who has the majority of members traditionally. There was talk of bringing Gingrich back even though not a current member. I think it would have caused a hugh fight. Not with the Dems but inside the GOP. Given the Speaker is # 3 in the line of progression, it’s very important. I think it’s interesting to consider how many leftist dumbazzes believe if Trump is impeached Hillary takes over. Not happening. They don’t know it. That might be the straw.

You just don’t get it , do you? No one ever taught you about butting into a conversation? You got a problem with me? Is this something personal? I don’t even know who you are but seems to me you got a problem with me, what is it?

Go read the RULES that are supposed to govern this site.

This is NOT personal, I don't know who YOU are, but I sure do have your number now. LOL

I corrected your post and taught you something, I hope, by posting FACTS.There's no point in making this site look like DU!

I know what the rules are but you jumped into a post I sent someone else and you came off with calling me uneducated and made it a point to even use your cap locks so that to me made it personal and I don’t know what for as I have never posted anything to you. You’ve got a problem with something or someone. All you’ve taught me is what an arrogant pompous ass you are. And as to numbers, I got yours. As I said, it ends now. Walk away.

Obviously you either don't know the rules here, of imagine that you are exempt from following them.

Grow up and start following FR's TOS.
