House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) on Thursday called President Trump’s furious reaction to an anonymous administration official's op-ed disparaging him in The New York Times a “manifestation of his instability.”
Pelosi said her “first thought” was that Vice President Pence penned the opinion piece, which described efforts among staffers in the Trump administration to push back against the president's instincts.
Not long after the op-ed was published Wednesday afternoon, Trump tweeted “Treason?” in all caps. He later demanded the Times identify the piece's author "for National Security purposes."
“The president saying it’s treason is, again, a manifestation of his instability,” Pelosi said. “But what was said in there is a reflection of what we hear from many Republicans around the country, not in Congress: That the party of Lincoln cannot survive as the party of Trump.”
Pelosi added that it “probably won’t take too long for us to find out who wrote it.”
“Who has denied it already? The vice president,” she said. “That was my first thought.”
Jarrod Agen, Pence's deputy chief of staff and communications director, on Thursday denied that Pence authored the op-ed, tweeting that the vice president's office "is above such amateur acts."
Several other White House officials have also denied writing the op-ed, including Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Attorney General Jeff Sessions, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke and Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats.
The anonymous Trump official in the op-ed bashed the president's "amorality" and praised the work of "unsung heroes" who push back against him, suggesting a coordinated effort from within.
“No one cares what “Miss Lube Job 1956” cares anymore. She is too 20th Century...”
Only that she’s been “doing a lube job” the country for decades.
This has been a VERY bad week for the left. And it’s the first week that people are paying serious attention.

That is not racist...because Nancy is white.
Solution: - less tweeting, more action
Definition of subversion
1 : the act of subverting : the state of being subverted; especially : a systematic attempt to overthrow or undermine a government or political system by persons working secretly from within
BTW the memo is a rehash of the same crap spewed several months ago after the greenie recount attempts flopped. It contains neither new information nor credibility.
She should dress as a cheerleader with a big D on her uniform.
If so, the the apoplectic reaction by liberals to the Trump presidency is a manifestation of their instability, right?
Speaking of stability, how are those meds working San Fran Nan?
I cannot find a specific federal law on subversion that clearly applies.
I would love your post read to the Marxist bottom-feeder who, no doubt, slithers from office to office.
She already declared she was not going to speak to George W. Bush in the White House any more. A year after Trump moved in.
Maybe we should harrass her 24/7 and she if we can make her crack? It already worked on her face and neck.
“Start my 4pm Botox. Where is that guy Jared with the injection? C’mon.”
and SEE if we can make her crack
So you're saying it's not illegal to overthrow an elected government from within? Seriously?
“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.”
― Marcus Tullius Cicero
Enjoy election night in November, nancy.

The peepole of Sam Franfrisco are too stupid to discern Nancy’s insanity.
Heh...the necrotic brain speaks.
