Quite an amazing statement from Speaker Pelosi! Major shot at McCarthy:

[George II]

When Mitch McConnell — who lives by Pres. Reagan’s rule on never speaking ill of another Republican — warns of a “cancer” in the ranks, Qevin McCarthy, Q-CA, would do well to heed the advice of another US President, Pres. Kennedy, on the dangers of embracing extremism.

23. Yes, Qevin from Q-CA...that was a master touch.

Unfortunately, I don't think the guy understands what shame is, he is a coward and he shows it. I am convinced republicans have been compromised, I have never seen so many people in fear, you can see it in their body language.

Next time Lindsey Graham is on TV, watch how he swallows as he speaks, he has a hard time saying the things he does because it seems that somewhere in his brain he knows he doesn't agree with them.

And most of the republicans have the same problem. Jim Jordan usually looks down when he speaks, he will move his head up and down, but looks down a lot, and they stutter even though they don't suffer from it.

They are all afraid, they live in panic.

32. I've had that opinion of Benedict Donald's enablers for a long time

He, and therefore Putin, must certainly have something on them. Sexual escapades, shady financial dealings, there's gotta' be something there and I certainly hope that it can be uncovered soon.

Benedict Donald didn't choose his closest allies because of their knowledge and talent, he chose them because he knows they're compromised and therefore he has control over them.

55. while of course some of them are compromised by their past deeds,

they are cowards in their hearts, and they definitely fear trump's cult. especially after january 6. not just for their political lives, but their actual lives.

[11 Bravo]

62. And those ain't typos. "Q" is not next to "K" or "R" on the keyboard.

Well played Madam Speaker!

17. She's very clever. Sharp humor to tag and humiliate...

... will sting and cut deeply... more so than individuals who engage in juvenile name-calling and insults or "clap-back" twitter wars.

glad she went there and called them out for what they are

[sheshe2]

34. Brilliant 😂

[BobTheSubgenius]

35. It's a pretty mild statement, compared with what COULD be said.

But, compared to her usual, more measured style, this is a gloves-off, bare-knuckled bar fight.

[NurseJackie]

42. Clearly she prefers a scalpel to a sledgehammer. It's more dignified.

[MontanaMama]

72. A scalpel lends a cleaner cut...

Madame Speaker is a political surgeon.

[SKKY]

36. She's clearly stepped up her clap-back game. Probably learned it from AOC...

...this is the content I'm here for.

[George II]

37. Absolutely not! Pelosi has been like this for years. She didn't need to "learn" it from anyone!

Note the date:

Nancy Pelosi will ‘cut your head off and you won’t even know you’re bleeding,’ daughter Alexandra Pelosi says

Jan. 2, 2019 at 3:36 p.m. EST

On a day when members of at least one famous political family have been publicly feuding with each other, documentary filmmaker Alexandra Pelosi, the daughter of incoming House speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), struck a different note, vouching for the effectiveness of her mother’s leadership skills.

“How does she approach meetings with President Trump, A, and B, just what are your feelings about this person who you know quite well becoming speaker of the House for a second time?” host John Berman asked during an interview Wednesday on CNN’s “New Day.”

The younger Pelosi responded: “She’ll cut your head off and you won’t even know you’re bleeding.”

[Cha]

54. Thank you! omg.. now somebody's

trying to give someone else Credit for Nancy Pelosi's words!?

Unreal.

[SKKY]

60. Wow. Some on this board get spun up about absolutely nothing!

[Cha]

61. That's your Opinion.. I see by the

replies that I'm Not the only one who disagrees with your statement.

[LanternWaste]

68. Then maybe try not to get so worked up "about absolutely nothing!"

As it seems your own responses are no more, nor no less "spun up" than any other response, I'm forced to conclude you unwittingly placed yourself in the same demographic you indict.

[FreepFryer]

74. +1. (Nt)

[SaveOurDemocracy]

40. I'm a fan of AOC, but that's ridiculous. n/t

[NurseJackie]

43. Oh brother. Not a chance. What an insult to Nancy.

Probably learned it from AOC...

Oh brother. What an insult to Nancy. She's much more sophisticated, and she wields her scalpel with great precision and grace.

Frankly, anyone can "clap-back" with sledgehammer insults and name-calling... that takes no effort at all. When anyone CONTINUALLY uses Twitter to slam and insult denigrate others, it becomes old-hat and tedious (look at Trump if you need an example of that.)

But Nancy... ahh... she knows how to wait. She steers clear of the obvious and cheap-shots. Getting into twitter wars for their own sake serves no useful purpose. She knows that when you wrestle with pigs, both get dirty. Instead, she's shown us the wisdom of waiting for the moment that her wit and direct approach will have the biggest impact.

With one little letter, just one quick slice, Nancy has wounded him with an indelible scar that will follow him for LIFE!! He didn't even feel it when it happened.

Nancy rocks!

:hatttip:

[Cha]

53. No, Nancy "probably" did NOT. I'm

giving All the Credit to Speaker Nancy Pelosi for her Words. She's Earned it.

[LanternWaste]

65. Go on... pull the other one while you're at it. nt

[betsuni]

69. Someone post Nancy sarcastic-clapping at Trump and tearing up his State of the Union speech.

"learned it from AOC"

[moosewhisperer]

41. Sick burn, but..

This is from her “Team Pelosi” political account. If it were directly from her, it would be signed “-NP”.

[NurseJackie]

44. Something like this is done with her approval.

She knew.

[hlthe2b]

45. Ha Ha Ha!

[ShazzieB]

46. Oh, Qevin.....

[Sogo]

47. I LOVE Nancy Pelosi!

Fantastic leadership!!

[Harker]

48. Qreep. n/t

[jcgoldie]

49. Pretty sure that 2nd Q is just so no-one can mistake the first one for a typo!!

[3catwoman3]

59. Given that Q and K are on opposite sides...

...of the keyboard, that would be a Rosemary-Woods-Nixon-secretary-worthy typo -

[SunSeeker]

50. Brilliant shade.

[Alacritous Crier]

51. SHADE-TASTIC!

[Ferrets are Cool]

52. That was brilliant. Every last damn "letter" of it.

[uponit7771]

56. K&R,

58. Qevin!!!!

Guffaw! So. Much. Shade. I love this woman.

[soldierant]

63. Off topic ...

but when I read just the headline it came into my mind that I knew Champ and Major were exceptionally qualified, but I did not realize that either could shoot.

[George II]

64. Whoosh! I missed that entirely. I love your sarcastic take on that!

[soldierant]

67. Too much credit.

It basically comes from reading too fast and missing things (like punctuation and occasionally whole words.) But it can be fun to run with.
