Pelosi Statement on House Republicans' Latest Attack on Chairman Adam Schiff

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Washington, D.C. – Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued this statement on House Republicans’ attempt to censure Chairman Adam Schiff:

“Chairman Schiff is a great American patriot. Our country is extremely well-served by his serious, smart and strategic leadership to protect our elections, national security and democracy – which sadly stands in stark contrast to Republicans in the Congress who cover up the truth, look the other way when the President invites foreign governments to interfere in our elections and vote against legislation to secure the ballot from foreign attacks.

“What the Republicans fear most is the truth. The President betrayed the oath of office, our national security and the integrity of our elections, and the GOP has not even tried to deny the facts. Instead, Republicans stage confusion, undermine the Constitution and attack the person of whom the President is most afraid.

“The American people want the truth. The House will proceed with our impeachment inquiry to find the facts and expose the truth, guided by our Constitution and the facts. This is about patriotism, not politics or partisanship.”

this from a Trumpist who probably voted for Reagan, too.

14. Facebook is reddit for people who like to pretend to be polite.

17. Reddit is 4Chan for people who think they're not as bad as that.

.....Madame Speaker Pelosi for your spot on comment........the rethugs ONLY know how to lie, cheat, and steal and know NOTHING about governing this great country of ours.......I hope that they all go down to tremendous defeat in November 2020........

11. Republicans can't spell 'patriotism'

Madame Speaker has obviously considered these issues at length. There is no defeating integrity.

[ffr]

12. Republican voters everywhere should be ashamed of the ethical bankrupt

stances their party has taken. They stand against American ideals.

Party over country. TRAITORS!

13. For example,

Explain the criminal Trey Gowdy!

Lock them all up!

15. I don't believe in the term perfect when it comes to writing. It's a maxim of mine that there is

always room for improvement. However, in this case, I will put aside my normal picky stds. to state:

P E R F E C T!!

[Ohiogal]

16. I felt better just reading this.

Speaker Pelosi is a national treasure.

19. Pelosi, "The American people want the truth. The House will proceed with our impeachment inquiry."

aka We got the goods on Donny.

20. What must be real squeaky bum time for Republicans is that it's quite likely what Democrats are

doing is gathering all the depositions they need in private, not only to make sure witnesses don't co-ordinate their stories, but Democrats can sculpt a script out of all these depositions, to create a compelling and streamlined narrative. THEN, they can have a public inquiry and call all those who will do the most damage to Trump. And there's nothing Republicans can do about it.

[warmfeet]

21. Excellent!

Could not be stated any better than this.

We want the truth, and we can handle it.

23. Outstanding.

24. "What the Republicans fear most is the truth."

The Republicans repeatedly engage in cover-up, distraction, projection and propaganda -- via Fox and hate radio -- in order to prevent citizens from getting the truth. Their policies are designed to enrich their donors while making voters less educated and more desperate for the basics of living.

[Scarsdale]

25. Want the truth?

How about replacing "quid pro quo" with BLACKMAIL? That is more truthful, isn't it? tRump took a page out of Vlad's book and tried blackmail. What's next - poison?

[calimary]

26. Thank you, Madam Speaker!

You sure speak for me - and for all of us who still believe in truth and justice. I’d add “and the American way” if America had not lost its way in 2016.

This bastard has destroyed whatever most of us were raised to think the “American way” was.

[dlk]

27. I can't say enough how fortunate we are to have a Speaker as patriotic, skilled & savvy as Pelosi,

Once again, brava, madam Speaker!

[ramen]

28. She is really nailing it lately.

What a badass Speaker she is.

29. I love Speaker Pelosi!
