House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., launched a filibuster of sorts in the House on Wednesday, by taking the floor to talk about the need to pass legislation to protect the Dreamers.
The House was set to start debating the Mortgage Choice Act, but Pelosi took the floor shortly after 10 a.m., and said she wanted to talk at length about immigration.
A filibuster is an action lawmakers can take in the Senate, not in the House. However, both Pelosi and House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., are both permitted to talk at length on the floor because of their leadership status. Both of them often request one minute to speak, but go on for several minutes, a privilege afforded to them because of their status.

Confused Nancy is Confused
It’s not a filibuster because there’s no pending legislation she’s trying to stall. This is just Nana listening to herself talk. Senile people do this a lot. I bet she’s telling the same stories over and over.
Put a sock in it, Nan!
Let’s see how much energy they have.
I’m more concerned to know for sure if she ever got whatever it was off her teeth and gums.
Or is it still there?
Time to turn on CNN and see if she keeled over yet ...
Is she waving her arms around ? LOL
Too funny! I heard it was a Tide pod!
Nancy, President Bush says to shut up.
No wall.
No end to chain and lottery.
No dice.
Nancy, President Bush says to shut up.
Ya , she would crap on Bush every single day ,LOL
We owe it to Nancy to NOT listen to anything she ever says.
Honestly, I doubt she can stand and talk for more than twenty minutes tops before she’d run out of breath and need to lie down.
Has ICE raider her hubby’s vineyard?
Nancy Pelosi exclaims, “impeach president Herbert Hoover!”
So, one day Speaker Ryan came to her office for a chat. He was ushered into her office, but she was in her private tinkle room, so he sat down and waited.
While waiting, he noticed a glass bowl of peanuts and started eating them. By the time Pelosi came out, he had eaten nearly all of them, and immediate apologized to her for doing so.
“No problem,” she replied. “I only suck the chocolate off them, and then leave the peanuts for guests to eat.”
