Beltway Speculation Mitch McConnell and Nancy Pelosi May Step Down
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | October 18, 2021 | Sundance

Posted on 10/18/2021 4:18:33 PM PDT by Texas Fossil

Yesterday Maria Bartiromo opened her Sunday talk show with a note that beltway speculation is stirring about House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell possibly stepping down. WATCH:

Nancy Pelosi may STEP DOWN soon. Now that’s very interesting

While there’s nothing specifically cited to support Ms. Bartiromo’s statement as a DC insider and member of the council on foreign relations, there has long been evidence that both Pelosi and McConnell will exit.  Here’s why it makes commonsense:

For Nancy Pelosi – Joe Biden is an appointed figurehead for a background agenda driven by Obama’s Chicago Marxists.  The Biden far-left policy agenda is strategically a massive throw everything at the legislative process in an effort to create major change in a short period of time.   Biden is the disposable front man for this operation, and Pelosi is the facilitating legislative cohort.

Massive inflation, skyrocketing gas prices, collapsed supply chains, empty shelves, increased crime, devalued dollar, diminished international influence, horrible polling, predictable political consequences, none of this matters because Biden is disposable to the agenda.  There are no limits to the obvious lies they will tell because no one cares about any public impact.  This effort is to drive the agenda regardless of political damage that can only catch them in the 2022 mid-terms.

Everything you would normally consider to be a concern that would limit the extremes of any legislative effort has been removed.  They plan to lose next year, so they have nothing to lose right now.

Pelosi will not go back to being the minority leader if/when the Democrats lose the House.  That’s a given reality.  So yeah, she will step down once she has delivered on the objective.  This is why there is such intensity and urgency behind everything House democrats are doing.   Rule changes, manipulative parliamentary tricks, the ridiculous and distracting J6 committee, all of it.  All of it is based on this two year far-left plan that doesn’t have any consideration for impact.  It’s a one way mission.

♦ For Mitch McConnell – Mitch knows he has lost any/all connection to the standards of the republican base. Mitch knows he is a dead man walking, and has taken all appropriate steps to exit his position because he knows if the republicans take the Senate back in 2022 he too will be removed.   The MAGA base including President Donald Trump can’t stand the guy.

Mitch has been grooming Senator John Thune to replace him for years.  If the voters deliver the Senate back into republican control, Mitch McConnell will happily step aside from leadership and John Thune will step in.  Thune is a younger version of McConnell and he has learned the DeceptiCon ways at the knee of his master.

What the selection of Paul Ryan was to the position of House Speaker in 2014, so too is the selection of John Thune to the position of Senate Majority Leader in January of 2023.  These DC groups game this stuff out and plan for these contingencies to retain the beltway system.

The Turdle isn’t stepping down. There’s to much money to be made.

It would be hard to be worse than iron fisted Nancy. She is the wicked witch of the west and all of her members quake in their boots at her threats, therefore, they mind her.

Should the Taiwan issue become HOT, his position is what he has to defend Elaine’s family Taiwan huge business— a business that is dependable in supplying US key supplies. That is to say— Taiwan must be defended.

By this time the chi-coms thought they would have most of the Taiwan military killed off by covid-— it didn’t work, and now they are facing chi-com demolition bankruptcy. And the US side of finance (the digital morons at the Fed) continue to pump out fiat money to the market to prop up the fraud. Sickening reality.

By the time they leave, the damage will be done, and the usual suspects will prevent repeal. Disgusting.

He is old. Health cannot be good. Remember seeing bruising of his hands from that. He has a younger ChiCom wife.

Those aircraft have come a long ways since the 1960’s.

Always liked looking at the females manning the guns.

Suspect the Muslims hated to see that.

I know they did when they faced Kurdish women, and lost.

I’d rather see both of them rolled out of the Capitol building on a gurney with plastic sheets covering their bodies. McConnell dead from a massive heart attack and Pelosi dead from acute botox poisoning.

It might be worth noting that Lonnie Bunch, Secretary of The Smithsonian Institution, is one of the Chicago Marxists, and an early patron of Obamao’s career when Bunch was President of the Chicago Historical Society. Bunch is just the latest manifestation of the cultural marxism rot at the SI.

Great thread, TF, and thanks for the link.

If we don't immediately achieve election integrity we most likely will not see an end to the Left's accelerating effort for America to become a subsidiary of International Communism. A Newt Gingrich type of "Contract for America" may be critical.

MJ Alexander at the link you provided has offered a broad list of items that might help restore such integrity, and that list is set out here below.

We should hammer current R office holders and R candidates to pledge support for such a "Contract". Any Freeper close to Trump's organization should also suggest to him that he could use pledged support for the "Contract" as a filter to qualify his support of candidates.

Each state, of course, may wish to use language that better suits its local statutes.

****

"The following are broad, topical suggestions which our elected state representatives need to propose and/or support:
1) Verify the accuracy of voter registration lists annually.
2) Require valid photo ID of every voter / provide state ID at no cost.
3) Verify eligibility of each citizen to vote.
4) Send out mail-in ballots by request only.
5) Eliminate automatic mail-in ballot registry.
6) Strictly regulate “ballot harvesting” to eliminate vote trafficking.
7) Strictly regulate and monitor drive-up ballot drop-boxes.
8 ) Allow 100% participation of bi-partisan process observers.
9) Ban election-day registration, establish all deadlines.
10) Ban “automatic” voter registration, e.g., DMV, welfare programs, etc.
11) Ban private funding of election officials or government agencies.
12) Ensure that the legislature has “legal standing” to bring necessary oversight / compliance litigation.

Help me out here, how does that work? How does killing off most of the Taiwanese military selectively work with a virus? Share and share alike, you know. It would seem that they'd also kill off most of the people on earth.

Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to defend the evil ****** ******s and I DO believe that the CCP virus (epoch times lingo there) is in fact a strategic weapon. I just don't understand how it can be used with the intent of targeting or isolating a particular target like the Taiwanese military.

What kind of debt deal are these clowns going to push through before Christmas?

It may be a killer for both their careers.
