In a Day of the Dead protest, protesters gathered in a slight drizzle at San Francisco’s Alta Plaza Park and marched to Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s house, a few blocks away. The signs they carried declared health care to be a human right and demanded Medicare for All. One, […]

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi lost her cool on Tuesday during an interview with CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer, calling the veteran newsman a Republican “apologist” and claiming he didn’t know what he was “talking about” after he pressed her over the long-stalled stimulus package. With the White House, House Democrats, and Senate Republicans still at a stalemate over the much-needed coronavirus relief funds—made worse by the president’s off-again/on-again approach—Pelosi rejected the Trump administration’s latest $1.8 trillion proposal, which is $400 billion less than what the House passed this month. The speaker further scoffed at it on Tuesday, saying President Donald Trump “only […]
Back in 2016, the Democratic National Committee suspected a breach in its computer systems and hired California-based cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike to investigate the potential hack. The company eventually accused Moscow of malicious activities, setting off a multiple-year-old saga that later became known as Russiagate. Recently-filed financial disclosures from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her husband Paul Pelosi showed that the couple had invested between $500,000 and $1 million in CrowdStrike, the company that pioneered accusations that Russia had sought to tamper with the US presidential election back in 2016, according to a report by by RealClear Investigations journalist Aaron Mate. The […]

CNBC host Jim Cramer has called House Speaker Nancy Pelosi “Crazy Nancy” right to her face during an interview on Tuesday. “What deal can we have, Crazy Nancy? I’m sorry, that was the President. I have such reverence for the office. I would never use that term, but it is…”, Cramer said speaking to Pelosi. “But you just did”, the house speaker replied. Cramer then said that she knows what he means, […]
The house speaker was caught, without a mask, doing a wash and a blow-dry in a hair salon amid the pandemic, despite having urged Americans to stay home and abide by safety rules, including wearing face coverings. Hairstylists have organised a protest outside Nancy Pelosi in San-Francisco, demanding beauty salons, which have been closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, reopen. Protesters were seen “decorating” the nearby tree with curlers and blow-dryers. According to media reports, the women described themselves as “angry customers” who wanted to get their hair and nails done. “We cannot work, we want to work. We want our […]
Protesters have assembled at the home of US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, stringing up blow-dryers and curlers from a tree while demanding salons reopen after the lawmaker was caught flouting Covid-19 rules for a hair appointment. A crowd was seen outside Pelosi’s San Francisco home on Thursday, protesting after the Democrat was spotted getting her hair done at a salon shuttered under coronavirus restrictions earlier this week. Protesters have gathered in front of Nancy Pelosi’s San Francisco home and are stringing up curlers and blow dryers on a tree after a video surfaced of Pelosi getting her hair done indoors/maskless at […]
US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi insists she was “set up” after she was spotted visiting a San Francisco hair salon in violation of Covid-19 rules, demanding an apology from the business owner while refusing to offer one of her own. The Democratic rep mounted her defense at an event about school reopenings in San Francisco’s Noe Valley on Wednesday, maintaining that she was led to believe her hair appointment earlier this week would be permitted under the city’s virus guidelines. “I take responsibility for trusting the word of the neighborhood salon that I’ve been to over the years many times when […]
Donald Trump slammed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for having a San Francisco salon opened in violation of Covid-19 rules to get her hair done, sparking public disgust that he says will help Republicans regain a majority in Congress. Tweeting on Wednesday, Trump said “Crazy Nancy Pelosi” was being “decimated” over the footage revealed on Tuesday by Fox News, which showed her at a closed salon in San Francisco. He added that the incident meant Republicans “will almost certainly take back the House and send Nancy packing.” Crazy Nancy Pelosi is being decimated for having a beauty parlor opened, when all others […]
The Senate race in Massachusetts is blue on blue in a blue state so the seat will remain safely Democratic whatever the outcome in Tuesday’s primary. That’s little solace for Democrats torn apart by a race that forces them to choose between Joseph Kennedy III, a rising star in the party and heir to the storied Kennedy legacy, and incumbent Senator Ed Markey, a champion of progressive causes in the House and Senate for 47 years—longer than Kennedy, 39, has been alive. Kennedy has struggled to explain why he’s running, other than that he’s a Kennedy and would “leverage” the power […]
The crisis at the Postal Service has been building and accelerating for months with virtually no official response. Over the past two weeks, however, it reached a crescendo that even the country’s remarkably confrontation-averse opposition party could not ignore. In a matter of days, overwhelming grassroots pressure pushed House Democrats from seemingly having no plan to executing a rapid return to Washington, D.C., getting a hearing with the postmaster general on the calendar for next week and winning a promise from Louis DeJoy to cease operational changes until after the election. But, despite these early wins, protecting the USPS will require […]
During a recent appearance on CNN, Nancy Pelosi admitted that China would rather have Biden elected president in November. Does she realize this is not a good thing? Does she know Trump has been making this point for weeks? She has a real talent for saying the quiet part out loud.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) didn’t mince words on Sunday morning, declaring that she has no “confidence” in White House coronavirus response coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx, whom she blamed for President Donald Trump peddling coronavirus disinformation. Last week, during a closed-door meeting with White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin, Politico reported that the speaker tore into Birx. “Deborah Birx is the worst. Wow, what horrible hands you’re in,” she reportedly exclaimed. Pelosi also accused Birx of “spreading disinformation” while simultaneously praising top infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci—who has found himself in Team Trump’s crosshairs […]
For over 40 days leftists, Black Lives Matter and Antifa terrorists have destroyed downtown Portland in nightly rioting and raids. As reported earlier — Portland has been protesting literally every night since late May. Many of these protests devolve into unlawful assemblies as violent leftists start to throw rocks and other debris at police, and it’s not uncommon for the police to declare these riots. But mayor Ted Wheeler, governor Kate Brown, and the Portland police command staff seemingly let the rioters take the city, as police are told to stand down and not impede the mob as businesses are destroyed […]
Several companies associated with US lawmakers, including Mike Kelly (R-Pa), Kevin Hern (R-Okla.), Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.) and Rick Allen (R-Ga.), Roger Williams (R-Texas), Vicky Hartzler (R-Mo.), Susie Lee (D-Nev.) and Debbie Mucarsel Powell (D-Fla.) have applied for coronavirus loans recently. EDI Associates, linked to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband, Paul Pelosi, has received a loan of between $350,000 and $1 million under the federal $669 billion Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) for small businesses affected by the coronavirus pandemic, according to loan-level disclosures released on Monday. According to Pelosi’s spokesman Drew Hammill, her husband is an investor in the firm and therefore was “not […]
US President Donald Trump’s re-election team has ridiculed the most recent attempt to tie the commander in chief to Nazism after critics compared a campaign T-shirt graphic to a logo commonly used in the Third Reich. Responding to the allegation that the T-shirt ripped off the emblem of the Nazi Party – spread online by the president’s detractors on Wednesday – Trump’s campaign team dug up photos showing prominent Democratic figures donning similar symbols, asking whether they also had something to hide. “This is moronic. In Democrats’ America, Mount Rushmore glorifies white supremacy and the bald eagle with an American flag […]
People on the left really don’t want President Trump to hold a rally. Ticket requests for the upcoming rally in Oklahoma have grown to over a million and the campaign is even looking for a larger venue. Democrats don’t want the American people to see that, so they’re suddenly pretending to care about the Coronavirus again. The latest is Nancy Pelosi.

On Tuesday night, Trevor Noah addressed the Democrats’ kente cloth fiasco as only he could. “While the movement in the streets has been building up steam, Democrats in Washington have been scrambling for a way to respond. And yesterday, I think they’ve figured it out,” offered Noah. The Daily Show host then threw to footage of the Senate Democrats kneeling in the Capitol’s Emancipation Hall for 8 minutes and 46 seconds in honor of George Floyd—while inexplicably donning African kente cloths, even though Floyd is an American. The move was widely ridiculed on social media, with The Roots’ Questlove pointing to […]
Trevor Noah is horrified that President Donald Trump is apparently taking hydroxychloroquine against the recommendation of the FDA. But he seemed equally appalled Tuesday night at House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s reaction to that news. “I would rather he not be taking something that has not been approved by the scientists,” Pelosi said on CNN this week, “especially in his age group and in his, shall we say, weight group, morbidly obese, they say. So I think it’s not a good idea.” “Oh no, Nancy!” the Daily Show host said with his head in his hands after playing the clip. “‘Morbidly obese?’ […]
Democrat Speaker Nancy Pelosi revealed a $3 trillion coronavirus relief bill that sneaks in taxpayer funding to hand out up to $1,200 in cash directly to undocumented aliens who don’t have a valid social security number. Fox News’s Tucker Carlson reported, “This bill goes out of its way to supply illegal immigrants who, in case you needed to be reminded, have no right to be here in the first place with billions in taxpayer dollars.” Carlson continued, “According to House Democrats, illegal immigrants must have a right to have the $1,200 checks that American citizens received in the last bill. They […]
Pelosi author Molly Ball says the key to the speaker’s success is her mastery of the inside game in politics — building relationships, counting votes, plotting strategy and working around the clock. Source link
