IF the dems win the House, God forbid, I wouldn’t be surprised to see them force Nancy out of the speakership. But they are much better than Rs are at message control and putting up a unified front when they need to (i.e. now) to avoid turmoil before the election. Afterward the gloves can come off.

Democrat bipartisanship sums up to negociating policy with legal blackmail.

It would indeed warrant rico charges

Interesting how Democrats fight like wildcats while in the minority while GOPe like Amnesty Ryan cut and run while in the majority. Isn’t it?

Trump is very smart to put Pelosi front and center as the face of the Democrat party.

Nancy Pelosi is a reminder that we have been blessed with stupid opponents.

So Pelosi threatening to use a subpoena as a political ‘bargaining tool’ ranks as a very illegal ‘blackmail scheme’???

Could you enlarge on that please.

Well I did a bit of digging (because Pelosi’s elevator does’t always travel to the top floor) there has to be a point man doing the heavy lifting....I think this is the guy on her staff.....

‘DAVE RAPALLO’, staff director Armed with subpoena power, OGR, as it’s referred to, will be the hotbed of investigations into the Trump administration.

Rapallo a top attorney from President Barack Obama’s National Security Council - an experienced congressional investigator will be at the center of all this.

11 years as a minority subcommittee director, later serving as Dem. Henry Waxman’s chief investigative counsel on the oversight committee. Rapallo was also general counsel on the Energy and Commerce Committee.

Gross Salary for August 2018...$14,375.

Nancy is well on her way to causing a couple of defections from within the Democrat Party to the other side.

Ryan is flanking the Trump agenda, joining the democrat political predator pithull like a beagle. Rinos are political predators and not at all the compromising moderates they wish to appear like. They are fully on the side of inquisition.

Well, if a cop threatened to arrest you or investigate you personnally as a means to get concessions from you at the city council, it would be using the color of law to blackmail you to follow a political power agenda.

The Kavannaugh case was such fishing expedition. The rape allegations were meant to trick him into mistakes, a confirmation turned into some test with traps. This is truly a Pharisean time we are living in. The political predation is alive and well.

Trump wants to make a deal with democrats, asking a tax cut and military spending in exchange for a democrat Planned Parenthood funding.

Alinsky Pelosie will give him this deal: planned Parenthood , gun control and no tax cut or else impeachment and day in day out litigation and union protest and occupation of congress

This is not negociation and compromise but blackmail.

And effing Rinos who are so called moderates will side with the criminals
