Pelosi- the former white teenager dispensing sunshine and personality in the back alleys of Dundalk in the wee hours of the morning. Oh yeah.
Gone are the mythologies that Nancy Pelosi was a pragmatic liberal voice of reason among the otherwise polarizing American Left
!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Did anyone ever actually believe that tripe?
Nancy Pelosi was busy ripping the State of the Union in half in a fit of spite when she could have been a leader. I mean, all of the liberals could have been leaders. They ignored COVID until it was all the media was talking about, then they couldn’t wait to run to the mics and howl how awful a job the president was doing.
Oh, sure, they took time to run to the mics to yell about how racist Trump was to ban flights from China. What an overreaction the president was making...
And most of all, you have the BernieBros pushing for single payer (codename: Medicare for all) without the slightest indication of how that would have helped this situation (hint; it wouldn’t.)
And in the background you have the inept CDC which first decided it would handle all the testing, then it released diagnostic tests to the states mandating it be done in state labs, without any thought of how many tests those labs could actually handle in a day (especially the multi-step 8 hour tests.)
It is not ironic that it was over regulation that has locked people out of test results for up to 14 days, especially in any conversation about single payer healthcare. If anything, that would usher in even more stupid regulations that impede helping patients make informed decisions.
Great article!
“Reporters do not wish to transmit knowledge to the public that might aid in confronting the virus.”
One of a few dozen timely cogent points.
Excellent article by VDH! Thanks for posting it.
For later.

Do not remember any time when Nancy Pelosi was a” pragmatic liberal voice of reason”.
There is a malignity about Nanzi Pelosi that reminds me of no one more than the late and unlamented Teddy Kennedy: decrepit, arrogant, besotted with power, and completely careless of what damage the worship of that bloated ego did to the country. If/when she loses the House in November I'd have her office crap in cheap cardboard boxes in the Capitol Building hallways the very next day and her name torn off the Speaker's door with a pair of rusty pliers, in its place a sign warning of ongoing fumigation. This is a woman who was passing out her memorial impeachment pens while the viruses were pouring over the border she fought to keep open. Who is now muttering darkly about a formal investigation of the inadequacy of the same fellow's actions whose every effort she dedicated her party to opposing. This passes the bar of cynicism and hypocrisy into its proper status as simply evil.
There is, however, this to consider:
...by unfairly scapegoating Trump in hours of darkness, they are ensuring that in the upcoming dawn, he will be credited by their same logic with owning what will likely be an impressive U.S. response to suppressing the virus and reviving the economy.
Timing is everything. If by September the economy is roaring back she'll have only functioned to illuminate a hero. That would be sweet justice indeed.
The narrative is set: EVERYTHING COVID-19 is “Trump’s fault”. If you can stomach it and don’t have a bad heart,take a look at the fake news media and sewer social media. It’s disgusting and much of it is Soros,Clinton,Obama and Chicom groups infesting with propaganda and agenda. The latest talking point is that Trump needs to be charged at the Hague for his “crimes”. WTF!!!!
That famous video showing Pelosi ripping the SOTU address over and over needs to be edited to include the POTUS warning about the virus in his speech.
She is from Baltimore. He is from New York City, specifically Queens.
In 1969 the New York Mets (Queens) beat the Baltimore Orioles in the World Series.
Nancy is still bitter after 51 years. Give it up, Nancy! It's just a game.
