Pelosi Tells Dems 'Too Dangerous' To Wait For Election To Decide President
House Speaker and California Rep. Nancy Pelosi has told her caucus that waiting for an election dangerous and risky.
Sadly, that statement shows the ideals of the Democrat Party who have no interest in free and fair elections as they proclaim.
What they really want is power and they are willing to obtain that power at any cost, even if it means impeaching the duly elected President of The United States.
Even if it means tearing the fabric of the nation apart in their quest for unmatched power and the creation of a one-Party state.
The Speaker outlined her concerns about waiting for the next election in her weekly letter to her caucus titled “Dear Democrat Colleague.”
As we enter this pre-Thanksgiving week, we must extend the Continuing Resolution to keep government open and advance our legislative agenda to meet the needs of the American people.
Thank you to the many Members who participated in our Speaker’s Meeting on Jobs. The presentation of the challenges facing America’s working families and the solutions presented by Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Chairman DeFazio and Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Pallone helped advance our infrastructure legislation. The discussion on USMCA was constructive and will continue this week.
At the same time we legislate, we continue to investigate and litigate, as the impeachment inquiry proceeds.
Last week, the country was impressed by the valor and patriotism of the dedicated public servants and career diplomats, appointed by the President, in speaking truth to power. This week, we will hear from additional witnesses who will courageously expose the truth and defend our democracy.
The facts are uncontested: that the President abused his power for his own personal, political benefit, at the expense of our national security interests.
The weak response to these hearings has been, “Let the election decide.” That dangerous position only adds to the urgency of our action, because the President is jeopardizing the integrity of the 2020 elections.
There are also some who say that no serious wrongdoing was committed, because the military assistance to Ukraine was eventually released. The fact is, the aid was only released after the whistleblower exposed the truth of the President’s extortion and bribery, and the House launched a formal investigation.
None of us comes to Congress to impeach a President, but rather to make progress for America’s working families. However, our first order of business is our oath to support and defend the Constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic. As such, we are custodians of the Constitution and, For The People, defenders of our democracy.
The defenders of Democracy? What part of defending democracy is represented by ignoring the will of the voters for your own.
What part of defending democracy is it when you believe that you, and you only, have the power and knowledge to decide for others?
That is not the act of people who are defending democracy. It is the act of people who are frightened that the voters have no interest in what they are selling.
