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.

He still sat on the couch and made out with her
But Newt she’s a good Catholic. Just ask her
"When the Lithuanian journalist came down from the Speaker’s chair, he was physically shaking. "I never dreamed I would be able to sit at the center of freedom." For him, it was the U.S. Capitol – not the White House – which represented free people. That is the legacy Pelosi is destroying."
But let's trash the man's patriotism and service to our nation because he took a picture with Pelousy. Reagan took several with Tip O'Neil and doesn't get flack - O'Neil who latched on to me (assigned security to him at a speaking engagement among rich swells) and proceeded to blow everyone's minds with his raconteur talents telling stories. He was probably evil but had sense enough to know good politics for America requires give and take without pursuit of ultimate power.
Also the only time I EVER found myself drunk after a duty. That's the kind of guy Tip was (LOL).
More than Biden?
Oh really...
The lard rolls downhill...
The second most dangerous is close to 50% of the population in the US.
You’re right, the ‘good ones learn, get back up and move on having learned.’
The last perfect person who walked the face of this earth could also walk on water... the rest of us get wet, dry off and move on....
And yet Newt was dumb enough to fall for her lies, getting himself thrown out as Speaker and surrendering full power to Nazi Nancy.
Entertaining as that would be.
