Pelosi calls for ethics, criminal investigations into Gosar
The Hill ^ | 11/09/2021 | Mike Lillis

Posted on 11/09/2021 12:08:41 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is calling for a series of investigations into Rep. Paul Gosar after the Arizona Republican took to Twitter this week to advertise violence against Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and President Biden.

The Speaker is also urging House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) to join Democrats in backing investigations into Gosar by both the House Ethics Committee and outside law enforcement agencies.

"Threats of violence against Members of Congress and the President of the United States must not be tolerated," Pelosi tweeted Tuesday. "@GOPLeader should join in condemning this horrific video and call on the Ethics Committee and law enforcement to investigate."

So much drama over a tweet but in 2020 BLM can loot and burn down buildings and they turn a blind eye.

Years ago comedian Mark Russell joke on the ongoing ethics inquiry into the GOP leadership at the time:

“You should know there was also an ethics investigation of the Democrats earlier. None were found.”

They steel elections and destroy our economy, but we can’t joke about it?

What about AOC faking being at the border and crying about kids in cages, all filmed in NYC? Shouldn’t she have been arrested?

I can’t recell, didn’t she say the exact same thing about that rapper video of the guy shooting Trump?

And assault and murder, along with antifa.

Notice how the riots have almost disappeared now that Xiden was installed.

Gee, doesn't like coordination with the demonrats at all./sarc

1st thing the article addresses is that this video is sparking debate about speech and Internet censorship.

Then I have to ask who are the nazis?

A DemonRat talking about ethics? That’s rich. There is not one elected DemonRat who has ANY ethics or morals at all.

When will Pelosi demand justice for the following example of threats and intimidation by the radical left:

1.) The owner of The Red Hen restaurant in Lexington, Virginia, kicked White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders and her dining party out of the establishment earlier this year and followed them across the street when they headed to a different eatery.

2.) Demonstrators in June accosted Secretary of Homeland Security (DHS) Kirstjen Nielsen and others who were eating lunch at a Mexican restaurant. They hovered over her table shouting, “Shame.”

3.) Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and his wife fled demonstrators at an Italian restaurant in the nation’s capital last month as they shouted, “We believe survivors.”

Kavanaugh’s wife and children received multiple threats during the confirmation process.

4.) Personal information of Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) and Mike Lee (R-Utah), including their home addresses and cellphone numbers, were made public by former Democratic congressional staffer Jackson Cosko. Cosko now faces federal felony charges for “doxing” the senators.

5.) Dana Loesch, a spokeswoman for the National Rifle Association (NRA), received death threats against her children on Twitter.

6.) A protester who works for a left-wing activist organization trapped Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) in an elevator, berating him about sexual assault survivors just before the judiciary committee voted on Kavanaugh’s confirmation.

7.) A woman confronted Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) outside her home in Washington before the Kavanaugh vote and then tried to get into a members-only elevator with her in the Capitol. Outside Collins’ office, demonstrators shouted, “We believe survivors.”

8.) On the eve of the Kavanaugh vote, a small group of people confronted Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) at an airport.

9.) Rep. Diane Black (R-Tenn.) received a phone message threatening to kill her. It led to criminal charges against the caller, Clifton Ward.

10.) The wife of Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Colo.), Jamie Gardner, received a text message, after the Kavanaugh confirmation vote, that graphically showed a beheading.

11.) Rep. Clay Higgins (R-La.) received threatening phone calls that led to a man’s arrest. A federal judge this week sentenced Sohail Rana, 50, to two and a half years in prison for a call in which he told the congressman’s district director that he would end Higgins’ career and kill him.

12.) Rudy Peters, a Republican running for Congress in California, fended off a man with a switchblade knife while campaigning last month. Alameda County sheriff’s deputies arrested Farzad Fazeli, who stands accused of approaching Peters and shouting profanity about the Republican Party and Trump.
