After Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., was criticized for reading a "parody" of President Trump's call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Congress, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi defended his actions Thursday and claimed he did not embellish any of the facts.
Schiff, who read the dramatization of Trump's call during acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire's hearing, improvised parts of the transcript for effect, and later tried to frame it as satire.
"I want the American people to know what that phone call was about. I want them to hear, it. So yeah [the parody's] fair," Pelosi told "Good Morning America" on Thursday. "It’s sad, but it's using the president’s own words."
"Those weren't the president's words, it was an interpretation of the president's words. They're saying he made this up," ABC News' George Stephanopoulos countered.
"He did not make it up," she replied.
"Look, I want to tell you something -- when I took the oath of office to support and defend the Constitution as my colleagues have done as well, I did not say, I will do this as long as the Republicans can understand the Constitution.
"So the fact that their loyalty is to Trump and not the Constitution is not going to slow down or impair our ability to keep the Republic."

Pathological LIAR!!!
As if ScatFranNan is the one to turn to when you need a reality check.
The site of any of them at this point disgusts me to no end
He admitted it was a parody and now she’s denying it? These idiots are so frightening.
She is talking nonsense. Her words are paradoxical. She is very close to a senility breakdown.
...."the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, between the summit
of mankind's knowledge.......a dimension of imagination where only what they make-up counts as truth....."
“Those weren’t the president’s words, it was an interpretation of the president’s words. They’re saying he made this up,” ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos countered.
An INTERPRETATION of the President’s words.....LOL! We don’t just report the news, we interpret it for you. You’re welcome!
I agree, I had to read the headline and first few lines of the article twice.
Imagine how quickly this "impeachment" would fall apart if the MSM was not so corrupt.
By the way, Drudge must have been videotaped by the CIA while raping an 11 year old boy - because Drudge has gone full liberal media insane these days.
Either he is actually being blackmailed, or he is pissed at Trump for not fully backing the LGBTQ+ pervert agenda.
So if not him, who did make it up? Who read it into the record?
Now we’re going to litigate the definition of “Parody”
He’s a fag, Jim.
Equally frightening is that people vote for these rats. Over and over and over again.
She announced the inquiry BEFORE both the complaint and the President's phone call was released.
So the inquiry was started based on media reports?? Must be...
Pathological. Delusional. Pathetic. But, dangerous.
This is what Adam Schiff said to the American people and we all heard it.
“F@#& YOU LOSERS. We are much smarter than you will ever be and want you to listen real good to what we have to say. We have been trying to tell you for three years that we are going to change the results of the 2016 Presidential election because we don’t like your choice. We will do whatever it takes to rid this country of you and Donald Trump. Just shut up and keep on paying the bills, your vote means nothing. I can stand here, lie all day long and there is nothing you can do about it.”
TALKING POINTS: On ABC-News' GMA, Pelosi defended the reprehensible actions of Adam Schiff,
who distorted Pres Trump's words, and later said it was "parody." Pelosi arrogantly claimed Schiff "did not embellish any of the facts."
To his credit ABC News' George Stephanopoulos countered:
"Those weren't the president's words, it was an interpretation of the president's words. They're saying he made this up."
"He did not make it up," Pelosi insisted."I want the American people to know what that phone call was about.
I want them to hear, it. So yeah [the parody's] fair," Pelosi. "It’s sad, but it's using the president’s own words."
She then wrapped herself in the American flag and did her Patriot Act: "Look, I want to tell you something -- when I took the oath of office to support and defend the Constitution as my colleagues have done as well, I did not say, I will do this as long as the Republicans can understand the Constitution.So the fact that their loyalty is to Trump and not the Constitution is not going to slow down or impair our ability to keep the Republic."
Senile; decrepit; doddering; tottering; hardening of the arteries; forgetful; senescent; in her second childhood; lost it; octogenerian; over the hill; imbecilic; babbling; would someone tell me which of these descriptors do NOT describe Nancy Pelosi?
I’m astonished that Stuffanoctopus actually corrected her. Usually they just let the rats say anything they want.
You can’t make this stuff up - but RATS can.
