Pelosi shuts down possibility of censuring Trump
CNN ^ | Jan 11, 2021 | Manu Raju and Phil Mattingly

Posted on 01/11/2021 3:14:52 PM PST by McGruff

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, on an ongoing call with House Democrats, called the idea of censuring President Trump “an abdication” and made clear it is not an option she’s willing to consider, according to a person on the call.

Republicans, including House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, have floated the idea throughout the day with no real takers from the Democratic side.

McCarthy told his colleagues that there should not be a vote to impeach Trump this week, arguing that instead there needs to be a bipartisan commission to get all the facts first.

He also suggested that there should be a clarification and reforms to the Electoral College Act of 1887, according to source on the call.

Before bringing up the topic of COVID relief, Stahl told Pelosi that she is “not known as a person who compromises.”

Hopefully Nazi will overplay her plan.

Is she reacting to the FBI leaking that her father was corrupt and brother a child molester? I am not sure why the FBI did this, particularly now. There has to be a reason.

"Did they really get her laptop?"

Yes. Members from the Delta Seals embedded with haspel's team who rappelled the backside of the capital dome.

Yes.....however “They” is not defined very well.

Examples:

Lin Wood, Q Anons: “Pelosi’s Laptop was taken by White Hats posing as protestors in a secret operation, THEY have it.”

Most people: “Someone took Pelosi’s Laptop it could be Antifa or MAGA people we don’t know but THEY have it.”

Don't be naive! The LAST thing these people want is all the facts first. They would rather we all 75,000,000+ voters just ignore the fraud, roll over, accept Joe and Kamala with open, devoted arms and forget all about a man named Trump. Only then will there be unity.

These Democrats and RINOs have gone over the deep end into full-fledged TDS insanity!

Yes, someone did. There were news articles a couple days ago on it.

Since the information from the laptop has not made it to the internet, it is not a bunch of yahoos that have it. Thus the absolute terror and the desperation to impeach a guy that is supposedly leaving in a few days.

and made clear it is not an option she’s willing to consider

Funny, the use of this feminine pronoun would violate Pelosi's own new rules for the House.

Pelosi couldn’t be doing this - she’s in custody by this point, according to multiple people on this site - that’s why the military is in town to round her and others up - according to them. This article must be a complete fake! /sarc

McCarthy also floated the idea throughout the day that the Ds could have Trump’s head, but only if the Rs could make a statue.

Lowlifes like Pelosi denounce the protesters breaching their chamber.

Her claim..... that protesters are a threat to ‘our’ democracy, a threat to ‘our’ founders and a
threat to ‘our’ principles, ‘our’ history, ‘our’ elections and ‘our’ sacred capitol.......is laughable.

What Pelosi and her comrades are really talking about is THEIR private Congressional club.

It’s all about Their Interests Their power. Their safety and security.

That is what they want to preserve.

Not our country, our freedom, our families’ safety and security.
