Nancy Pelosi under seige

[FeelingBlue]

What a BOSS!!!! I’m so proud of her, having just seen the video of her under pressure during the seige on Jan 6.

[spooky3]

1. I cannot believe how calm and clear thinking she was.

Amazing.

[wnylib]

20. Yes. Very impressive.

Also Schumer. Although Pelosi did most of the talking in the video shown, Schumer backed her up calmly and determinedly.

We have excellent Dem leaders to be proud of.

[Bluethroughu]

2. That little Lady had more strength than EVERYBODY in trumps administration!

[Traildogbob]

6. Damn straight she does.

Our Congress is in good hands.

[Bluethroughu]

7. Yes it is and it will be come November!

[Traildogbob]

12. Just imagine

The “coward meter” for Ole Bad Ass Kevin Compared to Speaker Pelosi. Ovaries over balls, except McCarthy has neither. She has zero fear of the fat man. Kevin cowers like the pussy trump grabbed and never let lose.

[aurora the great]

27. Can I hear an H-ll Yeah!

Amen to that!

[Quakerfriend]

3. She is incredible- NO fear whatsoever!

She just began problem solving!
I have so much respect for her!!
And, love the way she mentioned that it was all at the president’s behest

5. A real hero in actual battle

[flying_wahini]

8. She showed her strength was unshaken. So wish we had 200 more of her.

[librechik]

11. I wish one of those 200 Nancys gets serious about insider trading in Congress

Nancy is great, but there's always something isn't there?

[wnylib]

21. Whatever

[Pinback]

9. Impressive.

Good person to have as #3 in the chain of command.

[Gaugamela]

10. Washington Post reports that the footage of Pelosi under siege was taken

by her daughter, Alex Pelosi, who is a documentary film maker. She was at the Capitol with her mother that day.

13. Interesting, thanks. nt

[DownriverDem]

14. Experience counts

and some folks just don't get it.

30. +1

[IrishAfricanAmerican]

15. She was fantastic!

Tremendous! Impressive!

[Me.]

16. THank Heavens Those Who Wanted Tp Push Her Out

didn't succeed.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

19. And yet there are still calls for term limits rather than money limits.

[Me.]

33. Nobody Could Be, Or Was, More Effective Than She & Schumer On The 6th

with kudos also to Pence who kept his head and was entirely brave

[Quakerfriend]

38. I was touched by the kind way in which Nancy

expressed caring & concern for Pence’s safety while they spoke over the phone.

-And, also impressed that Pence helped them get back in to finish their work.

They worked together!

17. Schumer comes off even stronger and clearer.

At least in the video clips I've seen.

[wnylib]

22. Yes he does. Another time when

Schumer rose to the occasion was right after Trump took office and imposed the Muslim ban. Schumer was at an airport helping stranded Muslims get legal and material aid. He actually cried in sympathy for them, which TFG ridiculed, but which I thought (and still do) showed Schumer's strength of character, to be able to empathize with people in need.

18. Here's the video for those who missed it:

[calimary]

23. And STILL cool as a cucumber.

DAYUM she’s good. Fearless. And stands her ground.

[BigDemVoter]

24. She's a tough one.

Younger folks don't realize how knowledgeable and hard-working she is. . . . She always knows how many votes she has, and she is a master at getting legislation passed. Too often, Nancy gets blamed by members of her own party for people she has no control over such as Manchin and Sinema who are truly the ones who have fucked our party the most.

25. When she said "can you believe this" I had a chill down my spine.

[JustAnotherGen]

26. I can't wait to watch this tonight

Major emergency at work this afternoon - and so I missed all but the first few minutes on Sirius XM

[Alice Kramden]

28. She called it like it was

And emphasized that tRump was the instigator - more than once. Important message in real time

[Blue Owl]

29. Love it

Rip him up, Nance!

[Joinfortmill]

36. She rocks it. Love this woman.

[TrogL]

35. How come nobody's talking about Pelosi for President?

[DownriverDem]

37. She is a perfect example

of why experience matters. I hope young folks are watching and learning. I don't want new blood leadership during these dangerous times.

[William Seger]

40. I'm buying stock in Pelosi, literally

I haven't played on predictit.org since the election, but I just bought shares for Pelosi being the next Speaker.
