Gohmert has no intention of voting to impeach the president and used his time at the microphone to throw Pelosi's own words back at her. The Texas Republican pointed to a comment Pelosi made in 2018, when she wondered why there weren't "uprisings all over the county" over migrant children being separated from their parents and an August MSNBC interview when she called allies of the president "enemies of the state."
"From our side, we didn't take those to be impeachable because we didn't believe she surely meant that but by the Democrats taking this action, you're telling me, 'No when we say those things we mean to incite violence,'" Gohmert said.
Newsweek reached out to Speaker Pelosi for comment but did not receive a response in time for publication.
He wasn't alone in criticizing Democrats for their rhetoric. At least two other legislators, Representatives Lauren Boebert and Matt Gaetz, took issue with comments Democrats made in the past. Gaetz, who faced calls to resign after the riot, targeted Pelosi for tearing Trump's State of the Union speech in half last year and said "words don't matter when they're uttered by Democrats."

How we got where we are today - Republicans sat back and have done nothing but allow the democrats to do ANYTHING they’ve wanted - WITHOUT CONSEQUENCES.
When Nancy tore up the State of the Union speech, they did NOTHING but go on FOX news and whine.
No censure, NO consequence.
Years and years and years of that is how we got HERE.
Thanks for NOTHING, our elected Republicans...
IMPEACH!
This is what the Republicans need to do, everytime some stupid assed resolution is brought that goes against the constitution, they need to call it out and then present thier own pro America, pro constitution resolution.
It wont mean mean anything, but they need to keep jamming these people up ever opportunity they can
I watched him say that. God love Louie.
I watched that. She called it a wrap up smear. She was confessing to lying.
Neutron it from Space, just to be sure.
The Establish Republicans and allies with the LEFT.
Make that “Low Life”.
Her behavior is reprehensible, and I don’t like her. Impeach her.
There is the govenment bubble, and there is the rest of us. Never the twain shall meet.
Our do-nothing Republicans have always been do-nothings. That’s why we are where we are today. Asleep at the wheel and comfy. No fight in them unless they are up against a wall. And then it’s too late. Rush is always right.
If all the uniparty folks in office just up and died,
Agree!
But she’s a Democrat. She only ever does the right thing. Soooo that must have been the right thing.
They have time to impeach Trump three or more times before next Wednesday.
Pelosi asked the Pentagon about preventing Trump from using the nuclear codes. NYTimes Jan. 9, 2021
Make it like jury duty, draw names from the voter rolls. Check for citizenship and residency.
Put them up in conditions equal to a COP in the backside of Afghanistan (preferably at the bottom of a valley ringed by high overlooking terrain, where the Citizens can gather), for a single 2- or 6-year term. That should help the troops.
No salary (or not more than 50% of the median income of the poorest district in the country) - that should give some incentive to get business back on track.
A single, 2-week trip home in mid-tour. That’ll save on airfare.
No pension. They won’t be there long enough to qualify.
Same healthcare as our Veterans. Only with the lowest priority. That should get the VA fixed.
...and that’s just for starters. Any other suggestions?
I would have used my time playing a clip of Maxine.

The idea that the democRATS can’t do something is so ridiculous. There are no rules, laws, or regulations in the democRAT world. There is only power, getting it, keeping it, and destroying anything and anyone that gets in the way. Every hour they demonstrate just who, and what, they fear.
I will never, ever forget just after Trump took office. He invited Pelousy, Schumer, etc into the Oval Office. He had many cameras and reporters present to show everyone just how above board he is. Pelousy immediately stated ‘well, we can’t negotiate (lie) with all these people and cameras present.’ That one moment spoke volumes.
