House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., has been holding the floor of the House of Representatives for more than six hours and counting Wednesday, in a marathon speech protesting a budget deal reached by Senate leaders.
In her remarks, Pelosi announced that she and many fellow House Democrats would oppose the package unless House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., promised to allow a vote on a plan to shield from deportation hundreds of thousands of immigrants brought to the U.S. illegally.
"Let Congress work its will," said Pelosi, who noted that Senate Republicans have slated a debate on the politically freighted subject starting next week. "What are you afraid of?"

Let her keep talking. Besides doing some damage to her party, maybe she’ll get fatigued, pass out, and crack her head open when she falls to the floor. I am generally a peaceful guy, but because of politics in this country we aren’t co-existing well with each other.
Ok Nancy - shut up and let the House vote on the Senate bill. Last time I checked, you lose.
No need for a restroom break as Pelosi always wears depends,
the adult diapers.
Catheter?
She’s already wearing her Depends, so go for it, Commie Granny.
“Elections have consequences” Bit#h..
Catheter is Hillary’s “bag.”
I can almost smell her bad breath from six hours of talking.
I thought there were time limits in the House.
Seems like letting Pelosi talk for six hours should be against the Geneva Conventions or something—they’ll probably vote just to shut her up.
I really wanna know if there is another level to her usual babbling. This could get good.
We know they really don’t want to finalize anything to do with DACA as they want it for an issue 2018 & 2020.
So why would she be filibustering? She’s up to some other dirty Democrat trick.
Perhaps she’s trying to get McConnell to end filibuster as he states he will not do.
The Democrats want something specific (Yes Power, we know that), and it isn’t DACA at this time.
Her arms are going to be tired. If someone tied her hands up, she wouldn’t be able to speak.
She can’t talk for a few minutes without garbling her words, or having brain farts. After six hours, I’m sure nothing of what she’s been saying makes any sense. Hopefully she’ll talk herself to death.
Democrats had the House, Senate, and White House..they could have given amnesty to every single illegal alien cockroach they wanted to..they chose NOT to because it was a losing issue and they knew it..that and then they had enough Democrat voters that that they didn’t need illegal aliens, now they need them, BADLY..they are bleeding away voters and they need votes that will last them for generations
A lot of sound and fury signifying nothing.
Nancy can be blamed for all the bad things that happened on Obama’s watch including Hillary’s deeds as SOS.
She’s the one who signed the piece of paper stating he was eligible to run for President
All this talk about a “Shut down” never realizing what America wants is for them to “SHUT UP!!!”
Let her get all worked up and venomous. Maybe she’ll have a coronary.
