California is a really odd state to live in when it comes to politics in the first place.
Enter Nancy Pelosi. She is one of those people that is directly cut from the mold of the Democrat Party prototype, Hillary Clinton. She is as crooked as a stick and strangely develops amnesia the moment someone challenges her on anything. I'm honestly surprised she hasn't started passing out like one of those fainting goats.
Resignations due to sexual harassment scandals and the #metoo movement have once again cost Democrats their super-majority in California's legislature, which, in turn, have temporarily saved the people of California from even more tax hikes. If you couple that with the fact that it's now a widely known fact that Nancy Pelosi effectively stalled the resignation of John Conyer's in Congress, there might actually be an opportunity to save this state in the upcoming 2018 midterm elections and retire Nancy Pelosi once and for all.
If there's any state in the union that is most assuredly "blue," its California. Outside of a single Republican governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and a handful of state and federal legislators in northern and far southern counties, Democrats hold nearly every elected office in the state.
But according to Politico, a burgeoning sexual harassment scandal is roiling the states Democratic ranks and a series of "scandal-induced resignations" thought to be coming in 2018 are threatening the Democrats' stranglehold on power.
"We're in unchartered territory here," Garry South, a veteran Democratic strategist told the political news outlet. "This whole issue has hit a critical mass in a very short time. I've never seen anything like it before and I don't know where it ends."
South and others claim that Democrats have suffered from a severe decline in public trust. The Hollywood leftists who have bankrolled Democratic candidates at both the state and federal level are now under scrutiny, as Harvey Weinstein, perhaps chief among the entertainment industrys political powerhouses, is facing dozens of sexual harassment, sexual assault, and rape allegations and, quite possibly, an indictment.
The major Democratic players who represent some of Californias biggest urban areas can't escape the tarnish. Even Rep. Nancy Pelosi isn't immune, the article claims, because she stalled Rep. John Conyers's resignation, calling Conyers an "American icon" and pleading with him to remain in office, even as more women came forward to accuse Conyers of bizarre and often sexual behavior.
The California Assembly is itself embroiled in its own sex scandal. Dozens of women signed a petition to demand accountability from Democratic legislators they claim have sexually harassed aides and staff. They even have their own movement: #WeSaidEnough.
The Assembly plans to hold hours of hearings dedicated to sexual harassment within its ranks when it reconvenes in January, and the State Senate has hired two separate law firms, Politico reports, to handle what leadership believes will be a wave of claims. Nancy Pelosi's daughter, Alexandra, is leading a group of progressive feminists attacking California state Democrats from the left, accusing them of covering up for abusers in their ranks while labeling themselves great protectors of womens rights.
Democrats have yet to see electoral fallout from D.C. and Hollywood scandals, but Politico seems convinced that, at least in California, certain seats are likely to remain vacant or even flip to Republican if state-based scandals make national headlines. Californians prefer Democrats, that's not in doubt, but they may want a change of pace from their regular representation.

There are few other situations ongoing right now where the removal of one person would do so much good for so many people. Brazil is one. Cuba another.
Nancy is Too Evil to Fail
Folks, when it takes that long for the article to barely mention the particulars barely affecting Pelosi, it’s not going to force her out of office.
Nancy, I told you to go home and practice your meatballs, but you wouldn’t listen.
Now it’s time to face the music.
The only thing that’ll force Nancy out of Office will be Death and only until she gets better
1. falsified or doctored the certification papers for Obama’s “eligibility”
2. abrogated representative governance by forcing Obamacare through Congress without even permitting our elected reps to have, see, or read the bill
3. her staff said she told them NOT to even acknowledge or answer any constituent letters unless the authors have been contributing to her political campaign fund
4. she’s behaved in a totally embarrassing manner during and since the 2016 election
5. she’s reportedly employed illegal aliens on her rich country estate in the Wine Country of California, for years and years
6. she pushes open borders and the flooding of America with illegal aliens (without even trying to block further infiltration of Moslem terrorist murder gangsters!)
7. she has said a number of things indicating quite clearly that she’s mentally losing it, unfit for office (such as, claiming that President Bush is still in the White House.. on six occasions this past year)
8. Pelousy needs to be retired ASAP, she is a danger to us all (along with McShame and a couple more of them) as long as she occupies a seat in our Congress
IMHO ... the Democrat party has morphed as far to the left as they can go ... you could see it at the state of the union. What will “save” them are some “moderate” Democrats, maybe the few that clapped. But if they continue to follow Pelosi and Schumer’s lead, they are going to just keep going down.
The chances of Democrats losing power in California are not even 1% it’s zero with a rounding error. It will take at least a generation for that to rise to 10%. California is a demographically enforced Democrat enclave and will remain so for decades.
Since Nancy likes to shout Russia! so much, lets look back a dozen years, shall we?
Investigative journalists doing their jobs should dig deep—really deep—into Nancy Pelosi’s role in the controversial, $280-million, federal-funded Hunters Point Shipyard affair—in relation to her alleged role as an investor in a real estate investment entity called PRESIDIO PaRTNERS.

Whatever horrible things Pelosi has done, we need her. She’s driving the train that’s killing the Rat party. One more display like the one at SOTU with Democrats Behaving Badly, PDJT’s approval rating will jump 5 or 10 more points.
If true, then I’d be a dreamer. LOL!
Since when has any scandal hurt the Democrats - especially in CA?
They just don’t care. Even if 1 corrupt Dim falls, there are 100 more to take their place ready to “get their share”.
That was great, thanks!
Very interesting background story. Who knew how the dots include Christina Pelosi. I didn’t.
Depending on who would dare run against Nancy this little gem of an article is the reminder that Nancy’s 2016 reflexive defense of Connor will not sit well with the new paradigm of California.
No one expects competition to Nancy, if Nancy wants to return to Congress, but nevertheless this article would be used nicely as a wood chipper on Pelosi, Inc.
They are making sure they don’t lose California buy registering illegals to vote . They have more people voting in elections than they have citizens .
The California legislature has a lot of macho men types who cannot keep their hands of the chicas.
I’ll believe it when I see it.
