Speaker Pelosi reminded the Con and his ReTHUG goons that she is not playing. When an impeached President accepts an invitation to discuss the State of the Union and lies his ass off, then violates protocol and awards a Presidential Medal of Freedom in the House of Representatives to a well known racist, divisive druggie (with no permission from the Speaker), it is time to take off the gloves.


From the bottom of my heart, thank you Speaker Pelosi. I think you helped Doug Jones make the right decision.

IMPOTUS will be removed from office - maybe not today but he will never again disrespect the House of Respresetatives with a State of the Union address.


I hope she holds a press conference and declares war on his lies, condemns his Medal of Freedom bullshit, let's him know that he is not above the law and that he cannot ignore the House of Representatives.

Were I Speaker, I would have shut down the Medal of Freedom ceremony - not in my fucking House.

She made that Pelosidly clear

added that last line

[mcar]

1. Kick for Madam Speaker!

[Zoonart]

2. THIS!

[pangaia]

13. WHAT?????

I am as freakin' PRO-DEMOCRATIC as they come...

Your inference is way off the mark, Freep.

[onecent]

47. Whats a Freep?

[hatrack]

48. AKA "Freeper" - Free Republic

A state-of-the-art 1995 website where the dumbest of the dumb of the right hang out.

[Brainfodder]

4. His gross lies, what a pile!

I am a tiny bit sad that we have a nation with so much ignorance that he was electable in the first place.

He made a huge blunder with Rush, that alone, they can go crazy with - ads.

A medal of freedom to THAT super creep?

What's next, one posthumously to Jeffrey E?


Decorum took a nap last night.

[lagomorph777]

36. Imagine the ads: Limpbutt spewing shit, split screen with Trump awarding a medal.

Killer material.

[lunatica]

45. Let's hope they use it. This is something that REQUIRES the gloves to come off.

To choose not to is to condone both the man and his decades of vile activity. To turn your face away from the gutter depths of societal destruction.

[Danascot]

60. Some good examples from the Daily Show starting at 5:57:

&t=1s

[mitch96]

5. In a few years no body will remember tRumps SOTU address and EVERYBODY will remember

the "tear" heard around the country..... She stole his moment in the most elegant way...
Kudo's to the Madam Speaker.

m

[malaise]

23. And she sure stole his moment

The best moment of the night - they are still in a state of stunned incredulity

[bucolic_frolic]

7. Senate GOP53 shredded the Constitution

Blowhard's medal from bone spurs. it's the reverse, right? a medal of shame

[malaise]

24. Medal of shame following the sham trial

[bucolic_frolic]

39. Bingo!

[bluestarone]

8. KICK!

Can ALWAYS count on Nancy!!

[spanone]

9. The Speaker called his speech a 'Manifesto of Mistruths'

PELOSI SAYS SHE TORE UP TRUMP'S 'MANIFESTO OF MISTRUTHS' AS DEMS LABEL HIS SPEECH A 'RIGHT-WING REALITY SHOW'

President Donald Trump's State of the Union address on Tuesday night was branded by Democrats as having the characteristics of a campaign rally, minus the loud music he deploys upon entry and exit. His populist political rhetoric was met with boisterous chanting and applause from his Republican supporters.

But this time, other factors were at play for the president, such as a room half-filled with angry Democrats, who throughout his roughly 90-minute speech could be heard from the press gallery above bemoaning Trump's remarks or doing chants of their own. More importantly, there was a speaker of the House over his left shoulder, who less than two months ago led the effort to pass two articles of impeachment against him.

The result was a public display for millions of Americans to bear witness the feud between Trump and Nancy Pelosi that's played out largely behind closed doors over the years, and it was far more significant than her infamous clap-back to Trump at last year's State of the Union.

This year's annual address to Congress began with Trump snubbing Pelosi's handshake and ended with the California Democrat ripping a copy of the president's speech to shreds. Her act of disdain seemingly took some of the spotlight away from Trump in the closing moments of the event.

[malaise]

21. It was a right wing reality show

full of lies and disrespect. Fuck him! She slapped him silly AGAIN!

[CrispyQ]

28. That was awesome.

Done with such control.

[SilasSouleII]

35. That was the impressive part

The sheer calm control.

[magicarpet]

10. A mutiny at the US House of Representatives.

A guest was invited to give his SOTU speech.

He took over the House of Representatives, told lies upon lie upon lie. Used the time allotted him a turned the event into a Nazi Rally for his own political advancement and ambitions.

Then to add insult to injury gave the highest honor that can bestowed to a US citizen, the Metal of Freedom, and gave that honor to the vile Nazi gasbag Rush Limbaugh while he stood in the visitor's gallery of the House of Representatives. All this done without the prior knowledge of the Speaker of the House - all the while specifically while being in her wheelhouse these political liberties were taken without her knowledge, consent, or approvals.

trDump should know better, when you are a guest for dinner in the captain's quarters you don't high jack the ship, toss him out of the wheelhouse, or throw him overboard when he invites you to be his guest.

But trDump does what trDump wants because trDump thinks he is the master of the universe - and fuck everyone else.

That is not how a guest should act,.. that is not presidential timber,... that is the type of mush one expects from soaking wet cardboard. trDump's actions only warrant ridicule. Shame on him !

[malaise]

20. Great post

Should be an OP

[50 Shades Of Blue]

11. K & R!!!

[Vinca]

12. Nancy Pelosi deserves a bronze statue erected in her honor. That was magnificent.

[magicarpet]

52. Can they add an item or two to the Pelosi bronze statue....

.... she needs a pair of extra large brass balls,... they could use the testicles trDump should have been issued but he somehow missed out on.

[JGug1]

14. He Won't Disrespect the House Again?

You are predicting that he will be defeated in November. I surly hope you are correct.

[malaise]

19. Yes

I'm taking that to the bank

[onecent]

49. I'm with you both!!!!!

[Smackdown2019]

15. Pelosi screwed up

Speaker Pelosi should of had the clown SUBMIT his state of union address by US Mail! Lol

She should of never let the clown walk in that chamber!

[Baked Potato]

16. A gesture for the history books!

Thanks.

[panader0]

17. She did to his speech what the Con is doing to the nation.

Tearing it in half.

[malaise]

18. And they are pissed because she stole the entire show

It was the EFUCKINGnough moment of the night!

[nolabear]

26. She's a MASTER at drinking his damn milkshake.

[malaise]

27. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

and MASTER is the word

[greymattermom]

29. Yep, exactly!

That's the only thing that made news. Except the Rush thing.

[malaise]

31. She made it Pelosidly clear

(pellucidly clear)

[fierywoman]

51. (l*o*v*e the pun !!!)

[malaise]

53. A gift from a DUer

[smirkymonkey]

57. Yes, I caught that malaise!

great pun!

[malaise]

58. Let me make it pellucidly clear that I wish it were

my original

[Liberal In Texas]

22. The righties have their panties in a twist over it. (like Turly in Hill today)

It was OK to yell "you lie" at Obama (when he wasn't even lying) but something that isn't even disruptive is just awful.

[malaise]

25. They felt this one - big time

As I wrote above they are in a state of stunned incredulity - it was magnificent. Keep those boots on his neck Speaker Pelosi!

[ffr]

30. I laughed when I saw her do that.

I love that she represents us.

[ihaveaquestion]

32. She is truely the "Queen of Shade"

[colorado_ufo]

33. That moment, She truly became my hero!

It was so wonderful because I felt she did it for all of us. We could not be there, but she was there, right behind him, and on camera in front of the nation. Thank you so much, Speaker Pelosi!

[marieo1]

34. Couple of Thugs

Again, Malaise, you blew it out of the park. I thank you for expressing my viewpoint exactly. DJT and Limbaugh are both a couple of thugs. DJT just thumbed his nose at all the decent, law abiding, respectable people in our country. Instead, it was one disgusting pig patting another disgusting pig on the back!!!

[iluvtennis]

38. Thanks for the post malaise...loved that Miss Nancy tore up the sheets of lies. nt

[Dukkha]

40. No more false pleasantries

for the sake of maintaining the illusion that this is somehow normal.

Nancy Pelosi was our August Landmesser. Conspicuously refusing to perform the Nazi salute with the others.

[malaise]

41. THIS

It was a magnificent gesture

[HAB911]

42. In my dreams, she rolls it up like a fly swatter

and WHACKS him in the back of the head

[malaise]

43. I'd still be on the floor laughing

[BonnieJW]

44. She should have introduced him this way

"Ladies and Gentlemen, the impeached President of the United States"

[Hermit-The-Prog]

46. Pelosi's Protest ...

Speaker Nancy Pelosi said more, without opening her mouth, than the traitor Trump said during his entire speech. Her silent protest drowned out all of the noise of the impeached one and all of his enablers.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

50. Pelosidly clear!

An eloquent gesture.

[malaise]

59. Indeed

[BlancheSplanchnik]

61. :)

[Evolve Dammit]

54. Made my day. Call it what it is Nancy. A pack of lies. And Limbaugh; what a vile POS.

[lordsummerisle]

55. k&r n/t

[Wabbajack_]

56. Not inviting him to do SOTU would have been better

[malaise]

62. I disagree

The higher monkey climbs the more he exposes himself
