As a 20-year member of Congress and four-year Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, let me speak bluntly and directly.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi is the greatest threat to constitutional liberty in our lifetime.
With the passive support of an apparently cowardly caucus, she is behaving as a dictator more like Fidel Castro, Xi Jinping, Vladimir Putin, or Nicolás Maduro.
Pelosi ordered and kept the fencing around the U.S. Capitol for months – even when members of her own party were calling for it to come down. She stripped a duly elected Republican of all her committee assignments.
In recent weeks, she has dictated to the minority party what members it can have on a bipartisan commission.
Now, she is threatening to have members of Congress and their staffs arrested if they do not follow the mask mandate which exists by her own decree. (I am not aware of a Speaker ordering members arrested since 30 members broke into a brawl on the House Floor over the Kansas Territory’s pro-slavery Lecompton Constitution in 1859.)
If her power, arrogance, and destructiveness is allowed to continue growing, she will shatter the precedents of the U.S. House, undermine hundreds of years of common legislative precedent going back to the Magna Carta of 1215, and the destroy the established principle that those who write laws are still subordinate to them.
Remember that the Pelosi dictatorship survives with a narrow margin, because there are not 10 Democrats with the guts to stand up for the U.S. Constitution, the fabric of American history, and their own rights to serve as freely elected, independent members of the Congress.

I’ve been waiting. ;)
Nancy and Newt together....
Newt: Nan, I just realized the furniture I’m sitting on with you is a “love seat.” I’m going to hate myself tomorrow for this photo-op.
However, Newt was willing to cuddle up to her for his own gain.
I hate politicians in a way I never thought possible.
OK. It took 10 whole posts before this image was posted. I wondered ...
Beat me to it.
Clean her clock!
Four years too late Gingrich, you useless douchebag.
Yep, I knew that would be here.
Yes newt we know, got any solutions?
I’m convinced that all politicians are sociopaths.
Thank you for posting that, the image that comes to mind whenever I see Newt pontificate.
OK, Newt....better late than never

exactly!
Newt knows what he's talking about... Pelosi is a threat to our democracy - for real. Not as liberal elites use the term (as a threat to the power of liberal elites) but as an honest to God threat to everything we believe and hold dear...
I couldn’t agree more!
every one need to know Nancy Pelosi is the political connection to Antifa through her district in Davis county in California. she is a daughter of an old school mafia boss and grew up knowing all the heads of the crime families even then she does not call the shots instead her marching orders come from a group of families that have a strangle hold on California politics.
Maybe, just Maybe—We Need a New GOP? Toss out the RINOs and replace them with Tea Party Types—I would rather Trump called the shots for a while and re-build the the party from the ground up.
Thank you, Jay - all those harping on a 25-year-old photo op mistake way before the bitch became the monster she is now dismiss the wisdom Newt tries to share based on that error. That’s an excellent example of “cancel culture” we dog the Leftists on all the time. Humans make mistakes. Good ones learn, get back up and move on having learned.
