How Nancy Pelosi knifed Biden without backing Kamala
The Daily Beast ^ | Jul. 21, 2024 | John Mulholland

We should have known it would be Nancy.

After the Democrats electoral surge in the 2018 midterms, her daughter was asked how Pelosi—the incoming House Speaker—would approach negotiations with then-President Trump. “She’ll cut your head off and you won’t even know you’re bleeding,” Alexandra Pelosi said.

Over the last three weeks as Biden teetered, only to recover, and was beaten down, only to rally, it was Pelosi who kept coming back to the fight. As Politico reported, “Each time the Dump Biden movement seemed to stall, it was Pelosi who personally took pains to help revive it.”

In a July 10 interview on Morning Joe, Pelosi said of Biden that “it's up for the president to decide if he's going to run,” adding “we're all encouraging him to make that decision”—comments made just as the ‘oust Biden’ campaign had stalled. Speculation was immediately re-ignited.

Then, just as Biden seemed to have ridden out the latest threat, it was fellow Californian Adam Schiff who revived the movement when he called on Biden to step aside last Wednesday. Not for nothing are Pelosi and Schiff known in Democratic circles as the California Mafia.

“Pelosi is the muscle, hired by rank-and-file Democrats to do what they do not have the courage to do. When Pelosi was Speaker, she ran the House with an iron hand. She seldom lost a vote on the floor.”

Biden is known as a stubborn and grizzled veteran politico. Repeatedly, in a series of TV appearances since the debate, he said he wasn't going anywhere. He told George Stephanopoulus that,“If the Lord Almighty came down and said, ‘Joe, get out of the race,’ I’d get out of the race. The Lord Almighty’s not coming down.”

No, but Nancy Pelosi was.

Lenin wrote, "There are decades where nothing happens; and there are weeks where decades happen."

One week ago, their main political rival was supposed to be dead. One week later, Democrats have stabbed their own consul in the throat.

Where is the Regime Hag’s laptop that was supposedly stolen during Antifa’s J6 riot at the Capital?

article: "Biden is known as a stubborn and grizzled veteran politico."

Biden is a candy ass wuss, all hat and no cattle.

However, the Amtrak engineer gave Biden the keys to the train so he can take it out for a spin
anytime he wants. That is when Biden's not out on the open road, truckin' in his "big rig"

I recall when Alexandra Pelosi made that remark. I thought it was rather strange, even alarming for someone to describe her own mother in that manner.
Perhaps a long time ago, Alexandra thinks that is exactly how her mother treated her.

“Each time the Dump Biden movement seemed to stall, it was Pelosi who personally took pains to help revive it.”

Pelosi was rumored to have pushed aside Hillary for Obama in 2008.

The super delegates were for Hillary. But the popular vote and enthusiasm was for Obama. Pelosi urged Hillary to release the super delegates, and let Obama win, for the good of the party.

Pelosi, and others, believed it wouldn't look good for a black man to have won the popular vote, yet be denied the nomination. That it might lead to a GOP victory in November if Obama's supporters stayed home.

“”The Lord Almighty’s not coming down.” No, but Nancy Pelosi was.”

Actually, in Nanzi’s case, it would be coming UP (from the pits of you-know-where).
