Full title: Pelosi Warns: If Trump Uses Memo To Justify Firing Rosenstein Or Mueller, Will Trigger "Constitutional Crisis"

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi told CBS News on Friday that "if the president uses this fake, horrible release of distorted intelligence as an excuse to fire [acting attorney general Rod] Rosenstein or [special counsel Robert] Mueller, it could lead to a constitutional crisis."

"He has abdicated his responsibilities as commander in chief to protect the American people by protecting our intelligence sources and the rest," she said of Trump.

(snip)

Of the memo, she said: "It’s appalling. It’s a misrepresentation. It isn’t even the release of intelligence material. It’s a release of a distortion of it,” Pelosi said. “They’re not representing the facts to the American people, and yet the president has given it his imprimatur. This is unprecedented to the nth degree."

We are already in one and are entering into the confrontation to fix it.

The dementia she has (in addition to her complete denial and general hatred), her being a chronic liar and her being wretch of a stooge do flavor her statement as BS.

The constitutional crisis was triggered when the FBI ad DOJ started acting as an official arm of the Democrat party.

Anything and everything a Republican does or says is a "Constitutional Crisis" to Nanzi.

Paul Joseph Watson on twitter...

Dems Feb 1st: This memo endangers national security, sources and methods. Its release will harm America!

Dems Feb 2nd: Is that it? The memo's a dud, it doesn't even say anything.

Let's wait a bit and see what Congress does.

The memo was step one.

It's great to see Pelosi making a statement like this, for a big reason:

She's demanding that Trump must leave Rosenstein in a compromised position that he probably can't hold anymore due to multiple conflicts of interest.

My guess is that she's already been told that Rosenstein must step down or risk disbarment, and she wants to make it Trump's fault. LOL.

Since when is sweeping shit from the street going to create a constitutional crisis?
Leaving the shit in place will only bring on more filth, rot and piracy of the American constitution.
Ultimately, this issue was on its way to robbing all of their rights, liberties and freedoms enshrined in the constitution.
Had Hillary won, all of this like America would never seen the light of day.
America too would have been swept under the carpet by these grifters.

The Constitutional crisis happened on Usurpation Day January 20, 2009.

Many crimes were committed thereafter.

What’s happening now is the struggle to restore the rule of law.

If Mueller is half the strait arrow that they say he is, he will fire himself and shut this phony fishing expedition down.

Why should President DJT fire these people?
At this point, the only people stepping into trouble are on her side.
It’s been like that for some time now.
Let the snowball roll.

I realize that's all we can do but isn't it ironic that we're in this mess because of what congress didn't do. Decades ago they abdicated their congressional oversight thus allowing the Executive branch to expand it’s scope and authority. Clinton & Obama ran all over us x 16 years, and in steps DJT, and Cud Chewers like Pelosi now demand that the Executive do nothing. I can say this with complete confidence; if nothing comes of this, and a dual tier justice system is codified, elections won't be worth the powder to blow them to hell.

Pelosi better get a few cases of Ativan and Imodium. Her evil, ugly face on film from the SOTU address will be plastered all over campaign ads soon.

It seems every time Mueller has been cornered he announces a new indictment
or something gets leaked and "boom" new news cycle, bye-bye corner.

Mueller is planning his next attack. Truth and justice mean nothing to him. He will just be more intent n getting Trump than he already was.

Looks to me like we are living a constitutional crisis. President Trump by acting presidential gives us the chance to recover. Time for the Senate to step up, cmon Mitch be a hero, go back to Mr Smith filibuster rule. Sessions should be asking for resignations and shutting down Mueller and Rosenstein et al.

But, if those working for the president cannot or hesitate to act, Mr President take the bull by the horns and clean house, America has your back sir! MAGA!
