Someone Finally Tells Nancy Pelosi What the Rest of Us Are Thinking. Who It Is Will Surprise You.

When Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman first came on the national scene, I can’t say I was impressed. Granted, the majority of Democrats in office these days don’t impress me, but he seemed extra unimpressive. Lately, however, I’ve gained a little bit of respect for the man. 

Nancy Pelosi hasn’t been making a lot of friends in the Democrat Party lately after throwing Joe Biden under the bus. Last week, while appearing on a New York Times podcast, she blamed the president, who she essentially forced to drop out and stop his reelection bid, for costing Democrats the 2024 presidential election. “Had the president gotten out sooner, there may have been other candidates in the race,” she said, adding that the plan was for there to be an open primary, but Biden endorsed Kamala Harris before anyone could stop him. 

Some Dems have had little disputes with her here and there over the matter, but Fetterman didn’t mince words today when he called Pelosi out for trying to “have it both ways” in an interview with Politico. But he didn’t stop there. He also suggested that it’s high time for 84-year-old Pelosi to step aside and let a new generation of Democrats take over.  

People like Pelosi, she really tried to — what’s the word I’m looking for? — she embraced this ‘she’s the godmother, she’s the enforcer.’ And now she’s blaming Biden. Well, you can’t have it both ways. You got what you wanted, and now you’re still blaming Biden. I think it’s really ironic that you have a woman at age 84 and she is still hanging on. Why not give a younger generation an opportunity to occupy that seat?

Finally, someone was brave enough to say the quiet part out loud. Look, I’m not an ageist. I, like most of the country, just voted for a 78-year-old man for president. But Pelosi has been in politics since long before I was born, and she’s been a congresswoman since 1987. She literally just won re-election yet again this year with over 81% of the vote in her congressional district. Who the hell is voting for her? I’ve never been to this district myself, and I’m kind of glad because I don’t think I ever want to be surrounded by 261,797 people who think she’s a good idea.

Pelosi’s Latest Big Lie Is Too Much Even for the Washington Post

The Washington Post’s fact checks have by and large been tools of partisan politics. We saw this most notoriously in Oct. 2020, when the Post undercut reports that Hunter Biden arranged what looked to all the world like an influence-peddling meeting between one of his foreign business clients and The Big Guy, that is, his father, who was vice president at the time. 

The fact that the Post’s “fact checks” are largely designed to intimidate, confuse, and undermine foes of the left’s agenda makes it all the more striking that on Wednesday, the Post’s fact-checking spotlight was shining on none other than Nancy Pelosi, who must have been all the more indignant that it wasn’t PJ Media or Fox catching her lying, but one of the left’s principal propaganda organs.

Fox News reported Thursday that Pelosi “was fact-checked on Wednesday by the Washington Post for claiming that fewer migrants came into the U.S. under President Biden than under President-elect Trump’s first term.” That’s right. Pelosi is actually claiming that President Open Borders let in fewer illegal migrants than President Wall.

Give Pelosi credit for audacity: she knows there is a certain segment of people out there who will believe her and dismiss the claims of her opponents, and even of the Washington Post fact check because they’re ideologically committed to the idea that the Democrats, and the left in general, are on the side of righteousness, justice, and truth. And after all, how many people out there are really paying attention? She knew she had a good chance to get some people to believe her claims, no matter how outlandish, and on this occasion, she really went for the gold medal of chutzpah.

In the midst of an election post-mortem, Pelosi said: “I don’t think we were clear enough by saying fewer people came in under President Joe Biden than came under Donald Trump.” Yeah, maybe you and your cadres weren’t clear enough in making that point because it is wildly, howlingly, blazingly, outlandishly false. But Pelosi coolly went on to ascribe the catastrophic Democrat loss of the presidency, the Senate, and the House to a failure to make themselves clear: “It’s clarity of the message, and if that’s what Bernie’s talking about, and that’s what Joe Manchin’s talking about, we weren’t clear in our message as to what things are, then I agree with that.”

BLAME GAME: Nancy Pelosi Says Biden’s Refusal to Drop Out Cost Kamala Harris The Election

Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi has argued that “it would have been different” if Joe Biden had agreed to stand down earlier than he eventually did.

Biden repeatedly refused to exit the presidential race despite glaring evidence that he is suffering from dementia and other age-related issues.

However, his campaign fell apart after a disastrous television debate with Donald Trump in which he was barely coherent.

This triggered panic among Democratic leaders, with Pelosi and Barack Obama eventually demanding that he step aside. Biden eventually heeded this request in mid-July and endorsed Kamala Harris.

In an interview with The New York Times podcast, Pelosi indicated that allowing Biden to remain in the race proved to be a fatal error.

“Had the president gotten out sooner, there may have been other candidates in the race,” she explained. “The anticipation was that, if the president were to step aside, that there would be an open primary.”

“And as I say, Kamala may have, I think she would have done well in that and been stronger going forward. But we don’t know that. That didn’t happen.”

“We live with what happened. And because the president endorsed Kamala Harris immediately, that really made it almost impossible to have a primary at that time. If it had been much earlier, it would have been different.”

Pelosi was also asked to weigh in on comments by Senator Bernie Sanders that the Democratic Party had lost its key working-class constituencies due to its obsession with identity politics.

“Bernie Sanders has not won,” Pelosi explained. “With all due respect, and I have a great deal of respect for him, for what he stands for, but I don’t respect him saying that the Democratic Party has abandoned the working-class families.”

“Guns, God and gays — that’s the way they say it,” she continued. “Guns, that’s an issue; gays, that’s an issue, and now they’re making the trans issue such an important issue in their priorities; and in certain communities, what they call God, what we call a woman’s right to choose.”

Dems in Disarray: Pelosi Seen Arguing with Donna Brazile at Kamala Harris’s Defeat Speech 

The Democrats are in disarray after Kamala Harris lost the 2024 presidential election.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was seen arguing with former acting DNC Chairwoman Donna Brazile at Kamala Harris’s concession speech at Howard University in DC.

Kamala Harris delivered her concession speech on Wednesday afternoon around after she abandoned her supporters Tuesday night.

Kamala Harris sent out her campaign co-chair Cedric Richmond to tell the crowd to go home last night.

After hiding for nearly 24 hours, Kamala Harris finally delivered a concession speech.

Kamala Harris only spoke for 12 minutes.

Pelosi was an emotional mess at Kamala’s defeat speech.

She was spotted looking somber and teary eyed.

Cameras caught Pelosi in a heated argument with Donna Brazile as DC Mayor Muriel Bowser watched.

Grant Cardone Calculates Nancy Pelosi Would Have To Be ‘1500 Years Old’ To Earn Her $120 Million Net Worth On Current Salary

Grant Cardone recently gave his take on Nancy Pelosi’s impressive $120 million net worth during a DJ Vlad interview and as usual, it came with his signature bluntness.

Cardone, a well-known real estate investor, didn’t hold back when he questioned how someone making a public servant’s salary of $179,000 could amass such a fortune. “Can’t do the math on it,” he said, calculating that Pelosi would have to be over 3,300 years old to build up that wealth if she lived solely on her paycheck.

But then he did the actual math using a calculator. After deducting taxes in California, he divided Pelosi’s net worth by her salary and determined she’d have to be 1500 years old to earn $120 million.

Now, Cardone’s tongue-in-cheek comment about Pelosi needing to be “1500 years old if she never spent one penny” may have raised eyebrows. Still, it highlights something people have been curious about for a while: how does a person in a position like hers achieve such financial success? It’s not a secret that Pelosi has a substantial stock portfolio and her trades are closely watched. Some even claim she’s one of the savviest investors in Congress.

Nancy Pelosi’s husband sold more than $500K worth of Visa stock — just weeks before DOJ’s antitrust lawsuit

Nancy Pelosi’s husband unloaded more than $500,000 worth of Visa stock — less than three months before the credit card giant was slapped with federal antitrust charges, public documents show.

Visa was hit with a lawsuit on Tuesday that alleged the company has illegally monopolized the debit card market — the culmination of a years-long review conducted by the Justice Department’s antitrust unit.

Visa allegedly used its dominant market position to penalize customers and merchants who use competing payment processors, according to court papers.

Antitrust cops also allege that Visa forces financial tech firms to work with it by threatening to penalize those who don’t.

The Post has sought comment from Visa.

Meanwhile, Christopher Josephs, the tech entrepreneur who runs the “Nancy Pelosi Stock Tracker” on X, posted a screenshot of a congressional filing on July 3 which showed that the former House speaker’s husband, Paul Pelosi, had sold 2,000 shares of Visa worth between $500,000 and $1 million.

The Untold Story Behind Biden’s Sudden Exit: Pelosi Issued a Ruthless Ultimatum to Joe Biden

Joe Biden’s abrupt withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race has ignited a firestorm of speculation and intrigue within the Democrat Party.

Sources close to the situation reveal that former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued a ruthless ultimatum to Biden: step aside or face public humiliation over fears he cannot defeat Donald Trump in the upcoming election, the Daily Mail reported.

Here’s timeline of the Democratic Party’s covert operation to replace Joe Biden with a stronger candidate:

June 18: Insider reports reveal a secret plot within the Democrat Party to replace President Joe Biden if he stumbles during his initial debate with former President Donald Trump or if his poll numbers continue their downward spiral.

This plot, first reported by the Daily Mail, is allegedly being orchestrated by some of the most influential figures in the party, including former Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer.

July 2: As the situation becomes more dire, left-wing media outlets like NBC News, The New York Times, and The Daily Beast join the chorus calling for Biden to step aside following a disastrous debate performance. All of a sudden, Nancy Pelosi publicly admits that Joe Biden may be suffering from cognitive decline. During an appearance on MSNBC, she asked: “I think it’s a legitimate question to say, is this an episode or is this a condition?”

July 7: The plot thickens as Axios reports that a growing number of Democrats are pleading for intervention. As Biden “Dementia Joe” stubbornly refuses to quit the race, party leaders are scrambling.

Behind the scenes, they are enlisting everyone from the Obamas to congressional leaders to pressure Biden to step down by the end of the week. The hope is that Biden will endorse Kamala Harris as his successor, potentially avoiding a chaotic battle at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.

Axios notes that all eyes are on former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), who has the stature to tell Biden to pack things up.

July 10: In an interview with MSNBC, Pelosi further distances herself from Biden by refusing to endorse him as the Democratic presidential nominee, fueling speculation that she is orchestrating his exit.

July 11: Reports have surfaced detailing the behind-the-scenes maneuvers of Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi. A significant leak reveals a heated phone call between Obama and far-left actor George Clooney, discussing the precarious situation. As more details emerge, it becomes clear that the former president and House Speaker are working tirelessly to convince Biden to make way for a more viable candidate.

July 17: Nancy Pelosi is reportedly convinced that Joe Biden will lose to Donald Trump in November and fears that he could end up destroying the Democratic Party.

According to Politico, Pelosi has been “working the phones” in order to try and convinced Biden to make away for a more electable alternative. In his column on Tuesday, the outlet’s senior political columnist and politics bureau chief Jonathan Martin suggested that Pelosi is trying to keep her maneuvering quiet, presumably in the hope to maintain some sort of party unity.

July 20: Biden’s anger is palpable as he isolates at his Rehoboth Beach home following a supposed COVID diagnosis. According to sources close to Biden, he is furious with Pelosi and Obama, accusing them of orchestrating coordinated leaks to force him out of the 2024 race. The New York Times and CBS News have confirmed that these damaging leaks are part of a larger strategy by powerful Democrats to remove Biden from the race.

July 21: The situation reaches a boiling point as Politico reports that Pelosi delivered a chilling ultimatum to Biden. According to a Democrat familiar with the private conversations, Pelosi said, “Nancy made clear that they could do this the easy way or the hard way. She gave them three weeks of the easy way. It was about to be the hard way.”

On the same day, Biden dropped out of the presidential race.

Biden Admits Coup, Pelosi Says Resignation Letter “Didn’t Sound Like Joe Biden”

Speaking for the first time since he was apparently forced to step aside, Joe Biden confirmed that high ranking Democrats pushed him out of the race, essentially corroborating the accusations of a ‘coup’.

In an interview with CBS’ Robert Costa, Biden stated “The polls we had showed that it was a neck-and-neck race that would have gone down to the wire. But what happened was a number of my Democratic colleagues in the House and Senate thought that I was going to hurt them in the races.”

He continued, “And I was concerned if I stayed in the race, that would be the topic — you’d be interviewing me about why did Nancy Pelosi say (unintelligible). And I thought it’d be a real distraction.”

Nancy Pelosi Takes Credit for Leading the Coup to Oust Joe Biden — Says She Has ‘Never Been Impressed with Biden’s Political Operation’

Like a true mafia boss, Nancy Pelosi took credit in a recent interview on ousting Joe Biden in the Democrat Party coup.

Democrats call this “democracy.”

Less than a month ago Democrats ousted Joe Biden in a silent weekend coup. Joe went AWOL supposedly for COVID and when he came back a week later he was no longer the Democrat candidate for president. The party elites took him out. It was such a smooth maneuver that there were rumors that Old Joe had kicked the bucket.

Pelosi was quickly singled out as the mob boss behind the coup. Now she’s finally talking.

Pelosi told the New Yorker that she was behind it. She did not like the way things were going.

Nancy Pelosi: “I love him so much. I think he’s been really a fantastic President of the United States.

So I really wanted him to make a decision of a better campaign because they were not facing the fact of what was happening. Just a little background. I’ve never been that impressed with his political operation. I’m not.

I mean, it just happened. They won the White House. Bravo. So my concern was, this ain’t happening, and we have to make a decision for us this to happen, and the President has to make the decision for that to happen. Let me just say, I won’t say necessarily I knew doing at that time. I knew what I was doing in the whole thing, not just that ship. Donald Trump would never set foot in the White House again.”

Democracy. She stole the vote of 14 million Democrat primary voters. And now she’s bragging about it.

IT WAS A SETUP! Pelosi’s Aides Received Warning of Capitol Breach THE NIGHT BEFORE Jan. 6 – But Pelosi Blocked National Guard from the Capitol Anyway

It was ALWAYS the PELOSI INSURRECTION.
Footage was released in June from the House Oversight Committee of Nancy Pelosi taking responsibility for the January 6, 2021, protests and rioting at the US Capitol.

Nancy Pelosi: “I take responsibility.”

And on Monday, John Solomon at Just the News reported that Nancy Pelosi’s top security aides received warnings about a potential Capitol breach the night before the January 6 protests.

Pelosi could have called in the National Guard.  She decided not to.

January 6 was always a set-up.  And the evidence confirms that Pelosi was in on it.

Via Just the News.

Two top House security aides under then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi got stark warnings from police the night before the Jan. 6 riots that protesters might try to breach the U.S. Capitol through its tunnel systems and block lawmakers from voting to certify Joe Biden’s presidential election win, according to newly obtained memos and text messages.

The documents obtained by Just the News also confirm that Pelosi’s team played a role in the botched security planning for that fateful day.

“We have identified numerous open source comments indicating groups intentions of finding the tunnel entrances and confronting/blocking the MOCs (Members of Congress),” Capitol Police Deputy Chief Sean Gallagher wrote Deputy House Sergeant at Arms Tim Blodgett at 8:55 p.m. on Jan. 5, 2021 in an email that got forwarded overnight to Blodgett’s boss, then-Sergeant at Arms Paul Irving.

A second warning was sent later that evening about possible threats against Supreme Court justices, and the sergeant-at arms-office scheduled a briefing for Pelosi’s then-chief of staff Terri McCullough the next morning, hours before the breach occurred, according to the messages obtained by House Administration Oversight Subcommittee Chairman Barry Loudermilk.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, former Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Washington DC Mayor Muriel Bowser were both warned about the security situation prior to January 6th, and they both turned down National Guard troops at the US Capitol that day.
