A former CIA officer and self-proclaimed Democrat compared House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s decision to launch a formal impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump to the Titanic hitting "a giant iceberg in 2020.”Speaking with “Tucker Carlson Tonight," Bryan Dean Wright, who is a lifelong Democrat, was asked by s host Tucker Carlson if Pelosi's decision was “wise idea.”No, it’s not, Tucker,” said Wright.

On Tuesday evening Nancy Pelosi made one of the most colossal blunders in the modern history of American electoral politics. Rejecting the accumulated wisdom of a long and successful career in the House of Representatives, she set aside her own instincts and announced the beginning of formal impeachment proceedings against President Trump on the basis of a third-hand rumor about a phone call with the president of a Eurasian republic. Pelosi knows this will not be popular. She knows more than that. She knows that it will be a disaster for the Democratic Party, that it will inflame the president's...

Pelosi admits Earlier Today Everything They’re Doing Is Attempt to Stop Trump from Being Elected!!   Pelosi demanded the ‘whistleblower statement’ be given to Congress and accused the acting DNI of violating the law by withholding the document. Nancy Pelosi asserted that Trump violated federal law by and said the House of Representatives will be ‘moving forward with an impeachment inquiry.’  Speaker Pelosi also called President Donald Trump a “domestic enemy.”But earlier today Pelosi spoke at the Atlantic Festival and let the cat out of the bag. Speaker Pelosi accidentally admitted to a liberal crowd that everything Democrats are doing...

For months, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi warned itchy Democrats against the perils of impeachment. She should have stuck to her guns. In surrendering to the radicals and the noisy drumbeat of their media handmaidens, Pelosi established a formal investigative process involving the top legislative committees. Yet she did something else, too, something far more monumental: She effectively committed House Dems to impeaching President Trump. Because of what she said and did, if the House doesn’t go all the way, it will be a political disaster. Either failing to take a vote on articles of impeachment, or failing to get enough...

President Barack Obama’s chief campaign strategist and senior adviser David Axelrod said that even if President Trump is impeached, it is not likely he will be convicted by the Senate and removed from office. Appearing on CNN Tuesday evening after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced a formal impeachment inquiry, Axelrod, 64, tossed water on some lawmakers’ hopes that impeachment would successfully remove Trump from the White House.

Biden isn’t going to like this much. Some of the most tribal left insist what Biden did as vice president in Ukraine isn’t a story because The Washington Post told them so. But it is most definitely a story. It rips the scab off Joe. For all the breathlessness over Pelosi’s actions, I hope you know that what politicians say — even when wearing makeup on TV and surrounded by American flags — isn’t the whole story. What they don’t say is important too. And what Pelosi didn’t say was that she’d have the full House vote on the matter....

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) “It’s really a sad day for our country. I feel very sad right now.” – Nancy Pelosi Oh, yeah, it really is a sad day for our country, San Fran Nan. – The saddest part of all of it is that many of us have known all along that the deranged, despicable, depraved Democrats would take the country down this road sooner or later since the day after Donald J. Trump was elected to the presidency. Every step the Democrat Party has taken, from the creation and funding of Antifa, to the...

Like two rabid dogs fighting over the same rotten bone, the Democrats are in the middle of a civil war over impeachment. The Democrat leadership wants to defeat President Trump by winning an election, but its leftist hard core will settle for nothing less than impeachment even if it means four more years. Speaker Pelosi opposes impeachment because she’s seen the numbers. Impeachment polls badly with independents, would increase turnout among Republicans, and doesn’t even score well with Democrats. The impeachment obsession has led to the perception among a majority of voters that the House is focused on going after...

While House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is urging caution and patience in response to those in her party clamoring for impeachment proceedings against President Trump, her top deputies are signaling it’s only a matter of time before they begin. South Carolina Rep. Jim Clyburn, the third-highest-ranking Democrat in the House, said in an interview Sunday that he believes impeachment proceedings ultimately will be launched against Trump at some point in the future. He suggested Democrats are already laying the groundwork in Congress. “I think we’ve already begun,” Clyburn said on CNN's "State of the Union." “We’ve got all of these committees...
