Bedlam on House Floor: Pelosi Storms Off amid Boos from Members
Breitbart ^ | 07/16/2019 | by Hannah Bleau

Posted on 07/16/2019 2:03:15 PM PDT by Responsibility2nd

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) was booed after attempting to shame lawmakers into supporting the House Democrats’ resolution to condemn what they consider “racist” tweets from President Trump, arguing that anything less would be “a shameful abdication” of their oath of office to “protect the American people.”

The speaker railed against Trump during Tuesday’s debate on the House floor, promising that her caucus would continue to respond to the “disrespect” aimed at the fundamental diversity of America. She accused the president of legitimizing and increasing “fear” and “hatred” against people of color and attempted to shame lawmakers who are dismissing the Democrats’ politically fueled resolution.

Yes. I think of Ryan and McConnell and other RINO’s who opposed President Trump.

At least they worked quietly and “gentlemanly” against him.

But Pelosi? She is in a fight for her life. Open rebellion and hateful charges like “racist” - from members of her own party.

I Love It!

She is one scary looking creature. And what’s worse is that she’s uglier on the inside than outside. A demon’s heart.

Can you believe this s#it?

“Cleaver simply declared, “I abandon the chair,” and left — a moment with no apparent precedent in modern congressional history. North Carolina Rep. G.K. Butterfield, also a Democrat, then assumed the chair, before Hoyer took the reins.”

We are living in strange times when Steny Hoyer seems to be only pseudo-adult in the room:

“Cleaver then abdicated. Hoyer eventually assumed the chair and ruled that, based on the precedent set on May 15, 1984, Pelosi’s language did not meet the standard.

The precedent came after Republican Newt Gingrich, then a Georgia congressman, sparred with then-House Speaker Tip O’Neill, a Massachusetts Democrat. O’Neill remarked: “My personal opinion is this: You deliberately stood in that well before an empty House and challenged these people, and you challenged their Americanism, and it is the lowest thing I have ever seen in my thirty-two years in Congress.”

The parliamentarian determined at the time that the speaker’s use of the word “lowest” amounted to inappropriate language, and O’Neill’s words were taken down.”

Her political sense is usually better than this, but she chose poorly

I think the entire RAT party is somewhat taken aback by (what they perceive as) Cortez's popularity. They know full well communism is a destructive philosophy, but because it's going mainstream, they'll do it.

RATs have no ethics whatsoever.

What was stunning was how quickly she (lied) by throwing blame to the Parliamentarian for approving her words...who did not.... Pelosi is so accustomed to passing the buck it's second nature for her.

Good post. No concern for the American people. Just party power. This starts the suicide of America.

Trump THRIVES on conflict, and he is better at it than anyone

************

Yes, he is a street fighter who enjoys every minute of it. The more he fights, the stronger he gets. He never passes up an opportunity to “refine his game”. LOL

The Dems should know better than to play to his strength. But they keep coming back for more.

When one watches as this has been going on it’s remarkable how similar this is to the French Revolution or the Bolshevik revolution in Russia. The same competing factions, power play and constant one-upsmanship in extreme over the top rhetoric and proposals. While it’s all entertaining now, history teaches the consequences can be quite severe.
