Kelly Anne Conway Accuses Pelosi of Treating Her “like a maid” – Politico
LOL.
If sticker shock were a holiday, it came unexpectedly early this year. All thanks to the Grinch terrorist and the GOPlunder henchmen at his beck.
Hell of a job boys, still getting those Corporate checks regularly?
1What? You think we didn’t know?
Here is another one for the list:
DCCC Vendors Work for Corporations Lobbying Against Democratic Policies

2“The indictment or criminal prosecution of a sitting President would unconstitutionally undermine the capacity of the executive branch to perform its constitutionally assigned functions,” the memo stated.
Trump stated yesterday that he would not work with Congress while he was being investigated.
So why not indicte him? He is not performing his assigned functions and publicly stated he Will not do them in the foreseeable future.
3A TRUE genius does not keep claiming to be a genius! It would be obvious to anyone!
Bone chips though are subtle.

5And those doctored videos of Nancy Pelosi. Boy she has his wet his pants scared!
6Maybe by christmas there’ll be a dart board of Rump and his shoeshine boys.
7Pelosi treats Conway like a maid? Bet Kellyanne prefers “handmaiden.”
8With the gaslighting and Gish galloping reaching a new level of desperate, we need to focus and refocus especially since too many paycheck whores in the media are there to serve up ratings, not truth. When you hear or see a lie, remember: there are tapes. Tapes of what IQ4.5 actually said or did not say.
There are tapes. That needs to be the Democratic mantra when the media cherry picks sound bytes of to spin ‘splain what any of our Democratic candidates have said. That goes double for when the media is attempting to tell us what is was that Speaker Nancy D’Alesandro Pelosi has said.
Donnie fears Speaker Pelosi. The Republicons are targeting her with the intensity they would normally reserve for a Clinton. She has spoken, but her role in an impeachment battle is too complicated for the media to report accurately or reduce to their required sound byte.
For people like me too lazy to listen to the tape again and take notes, Evan Hurst provides a service. He takes accurate notes and offers a fair assessment of what was said. When thirty or more minutes is too long for listening, that 2 minute read is a life saving time saver. https://www.wonkette.com/do-yall-see-what-nancy-pelosi-is-doing-yet

Trump Infrastructure Plan a FRAUD
10“President Trump’s plan slashes real Federal investments and shifts the burden to cash-strapped States and local governments. It would cut more than $168 billion from existing transportation and infrastructure programs to pay for Wall Street and foreign investors to toll our roads, and it would gut bedrock environmental, clean water, and clean air protections under the guise of speeding up projects.”

It would take some kind of a genius to create that batch of headlines in such short order. Perhaps Trump doesn’t so much mean stable genius, rather he thinks he’s smart enough to get OUT of the stable and become the – – horse in a hospital?
11When this is all over, some historian will write about it and it will be much longer than Robert Caro’s Books on LBJ. In fact the footnotes will probably take up one volume!

Well if the horse diaper fits…
13The only stable genius I am comfortable with is Mr. Ed.
14My first thought was unstable genus (note the spelling).
15Now I’m thinking unbridled genus.
