In a wide-ranging interview with The Washington Post published Monday, Pelosi said she was currently "not for impeachment," but that didn't mean she was ruling it out if the evidence and bipartisan support was there.
“Impeachment is so divisive to the country that unless there’s something so compelling and overwhelming and bipartisan, I don’t think we should go down that path, because it divides the country,” she said. “And he’s just not worth it.”
But Representative Rashida Tlaib, the freshman Michigan Democrat who had told supporters, “We’re gonna go in there and impeach the motherf***er” and has continued to call for Trump's impeachment, said she planned to move forward with introducing a House resolution to “begin investigating the impeachable offenses” of the president.
“That doesn’t mean we’re voting on it,” she said. “It means we’re beginning the process to look at some of these alleged claims of impeachable offenses.”
Taking impeachment off the immediate table gave more moderate Democrats in battleground districts some breathing room, stalling the impeachment talk from certain newcomers and allowing the rank-and-file to avoid "a major distraction," as many members have called it. Key Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee, where articles of impeachment would originate, agreed with Pelosi.
And Tlaib took no issue with the speaker’s position.
“What you all should know is Speaker Pelosi always tells us new members, 'represent your district.’ And that’s what I’ve been doing,” she told reporters following the party’s weekly caucus meeting. “Speaker Pelosi has never told me to stop or do anything differently—ever. I know it’s hard to believe, but it’s very true.”

Pelosi isnt telling her to do it neither. Princess Whackadoodles is determined.
Let her do it. What is she going to impeach him for exactly? That should be funny.
Woohoo! Dem party dumpster fire!
Piglosi has lost control of her Insane Asylum.
If ever there was a positive spin on Rats gaining control of the House - this is it.
“We’re gonna go in there and impeach the motherf***er”
You chose the perfect word in “monkeys”.
SMH
Personally , I doubt pelosi consultes or discusses much of anything with this raghead.
Pelosi is still in shock that there is someone in the House who is crazier than herself.
A new loudmouth freshman congressman representing the district of Palestine is telling the speaker what is gonna happen.
LOL
Good. File it. Wonder what the crimes will be?
The Dem House is in a shambles, you won’t hear a word about it in the media.
Ragheada Tlaib, Michigan Mohammedan ALERT!
“Okay Nance!...You dont mind if I call you Nance?...Im Tlaib?....Rashida Tlaib of “Impeach the Motherf*cker fame?”...Did the cover of Rolling Stone with you????......”
“Oh yeah, you.....what do you want?”
“I got my bill , Im ready to impeach the m*therf*cker!!! On grounds because hes an Orange Bad Man!”
“Thats nice. But I said we werent pursuing this now. ...”
“Whadya....What?....But I said I wanted to impeach the M*ther...I told all my twitter fans I would....I....I.....Im telling Ihlan....Dont make me tell Ihlan........”
Verdict first, trial later.
Yep. Say they’re not pushing for impeachment while they are actually doing it. Having it both ways.
It sounds like Pelosi is intimidated by Tlaib and hasn’t talked with her about not impeaching Trump.
Insights?
Has there ever been a Congress stampeded by the class of freshmen? One gets the impression that more senior members are willing to let rookies carry their water, assuming the seniors agree with the rookies.
If senior Dem pols are afraid to disagree with the firebrands, the likely outcome is a party radicalized away from being electable in a non-socialist nation.
Dividing the country is the Dem party’s M.O. so what does she really think.
“It sounds like Pelosi is intimidated by Tlaib and hasn’t talked with her about not impeaching Trump.
Insights?”
Yeah. Im sure Pelosi is mortified at the stupidity of this breed of subhuman gender swine. Im almost certain she would expect that if , as Speaker of the House, she made a statement , the incoming freshmen would most certainly have the intelligence to know , you do not bite the hand that feeds you.
She is wrong and we conservatives benefit!
The Democratic House cannot stand unless Nancy Pelosi accedes to everything the Congressional Black/Muslim caucus wants her to do.
In other words, the 235-member House Democratic caucus has become a branch of the NAACP.
On what charge are they going to impeach the president?
Lower taxes?
Lowest unemployment in 50 years?
Lower fuel prices?
etc.
These leftist libs are so ignorant it’s an amazing thing to witness.
She does realize that it requires more than simply hating someone irrationally to qualify for impeachment, right?
