Pelosi Statement on Firing of Secretary of State Rex Tillerson
Nancy Pelosi Website ^ | March 13, 2018 | Nancy Pelosi

Posted on 03/13/2018 9:07:18 AM PDT by richardtavor

Washington, D.C. – Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi issued this statement after President Trump fired his Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and announced CIA Director Mike Pompeo as his replacement:

“Secretary Tillerson’s firing sets a profoundly disturbing precedent in which standing up for our allies against Russian aggression is grounds for a humiliating dismissal. President Trump’s actions show that every official in his Administration is at the mercy of his personal whims and his worship of Putin.

“It is no wonder that the President has trouble attracting high-caliber people to his Administration when he undercuts and humiliates those he supposedly respects.

“Whenever Tillerson’s successor goes into meetings with foreign leaders, his credibility will be diminished as someone who could be here today and gone tomorrow. Continuity in our diplomatic personnel and policies are vital for championing American security, values, and interests.

“Tillerson’s successor must approach the grave threat of Russian foreign aggression with the seriousness and urgency that it demands. As Director Pompeo has stated, he has ‘every expectation’ Russia will attack our democracy again. America must be ready.”

But it was okay with San Fran Nan to issue this smear, and for that matter, for her to not criticize Tillerson's supposed early-on snarky comments about the President. Thanks richardtavor.

The poisoned Russian spy is linked to Christopher Steel. So this ex-Russian spy, now a British agent, was the source of the “dossier”. The whole thing cooked up right there in England.

Honestly, I never like Tillerson anyway. He just looks like a weirdo. And after how hard he pushed for the Boy Scouts to go homo... A man doesn’t do that without a reason. And I don’t even wanna guess what that reason is.

The sentences are too complete, without the present-day idioms of Nancy pausing, stammering, and tangential speech patterns.

I think one of her understaff wrote this.

Maybe but, I think, not terribly likely.
