Pelosi Tells Ukrainian President Zelenskyy That Billie Jean King ‘Wants to Know How She Can Help’

Pelosi Tells Ukrainian President Zelenskyy That Billie Jean King ‘Wants to Know How She Can Help’

Embarrassing.

Nancy Pelosi started her press conference bragging about how she had tennis legend Billie Jean King with her and all their plans to celebrate Women’s History Month because this is what is important right now. C-SPAN has the transcript and it’s in all caps so I’m sorry:

GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYONE. THIS HAS BEEN QUITE A DAY. I HAVE TO TELL YOU THAT WE BEGAN THE DAY, THIS BEING WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH, HONORING WOMEN IN HISTORY. AND ONE OF THEM IS IN THE PRESENT, BILLIE JEAN KING, CAME, WE ALL BASKED IN THE GLOW OF BILLIE JEAN KING AS WE HONORED PATSY MINK. IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS WE’LL OBSERVE THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF TITLE IX AND TITLE IX, YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANT FOR WOMEN IN EDUCATION AS WELL AS SPORTS ACTIVITIES THAT ARE VERY IMPORTANT. SHE MADE IT HAPPEN. PRETTY SOON WE’LL HAVE A STATUE — EXCUSE ME, A PICTURE OF PATSY MINK IN MORE OBVIOUS DISPLAY IN THE CAPITOL. SHE WAS THE FIRST WOMAN OF COLOR TO SERVE IN THE CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES. BUT TODAY WE HAD THE BASKETBALL TEAM, THE CHAMPIONS, THEIR COACH. WE HAD WENDY MINK, THE DAUGHTER OF PATSY MINK. SO AGAIN I START WITH SOMETHING THAT WE HAD BEEN LOOKING HARD TO, THAT WE SAVORED AT THE TIME AND TAKE GREAT PRIDE IN.

Then Pelosi said this: “IN FACT, WHEN I SPOKE TO PRESIDENT ZELENSKY, I SAID BILLIE JEAN KING SENDS YOU HER REGARDS AND WANTS TO KNOW HOW SHE CAN HELP.”

Um, excuse me? Pelosi spoke to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for 45-minutes today. Why did she bring up Billie Jean King? Why does Billie Jean King think she can do? Can she bring real help to Ukraine?

We hear Zelenskyy begging the West every day for help. What can Billie Jean King do? I’m pretty sure Zelenskyy has bigger issues to worry about than wonder what sports legends think right now.

“Why did she bring up Billie Jean King?”

Because mah-DAMN Speaker is a drunken ditz.

LeftWingLock | March 10, 2022 at 8:11 am

The answer is simple. Give Billie Jean an Uzi (AK47 likely too big) and have her go over there and fight.

How much you wanna bet Zelensky said “Who?”

Perhaps Putin will pull a Bobby Riggs and throw the war after drinking 2 fifths of vodka.

What do repeated Botox injections, multiple plastic surgeries, and maintaining a long-term vodka Martini diet all have in common?

You know the answer. It’s not a trick question.

OMG…. The US is a compete joke now. I’m now just waiting for the meme to spread through the world.

yet more proof that pelosi is at least sixty years past her ” sell-by ” date

Over three hundred million people in this country and the top three elected officials consists of two dementia patients and a socially inappropriate giggling moron.

    I wrote a joke speech about how Kamala Harris’s report on her European vacation would sound. My model was, “How does a first grader sound when called upon to go to the front of the class to give a book report, and it becomes painfully obvious she didn’t read the assigned book.” Then I tried to dumb it down a little more.

    She’s beyond parody. Her, speaking in public following her trip to Poland.

      Sorry. I accidentally submitted the earlier post. But even then, even though my comment was only half finished my words made more sense than what comes out of Kamala’s mouth:

      “KAMALA HARRIS: “I am here, standing here on the northern flank, on the eastern flank, talking about what we have in terms of the eastern flank and our NATO allies, and what is at stake at this very moment, what is at stake this very moment are some of the guiding principles…” pic.twitter.com/QOsMKRTRsQ

      I watched her actually barf up that word salad and it was far more painful than quote even comes close to capturing. You could tell she was trying so hard to be profound, but she was just stilted and awkward.

      “I am….here…standing (she looks down, gesticulating wildly with her hands)…here…”

      She probably was looking at her notes when she looked down, but it looks for all the world like she looked down and gestured at herself as if to emphasize she was, indeed, “standing….here.”

      Frankly, it’s even worse if she had to look at her notes after only managing to string four words together. Then she had to look at her notes to find the fifth word. “Oh, s***, what’s that fifth word that comes after ‘I am here, …standing.” Crap I forgot. Oh there it is.”

      “Here!”.

It’s becoming clearer by the day that a large number of our political and corporate leadership views the invasion of Ukraine and it’s consequences as a damn video game or VR simulation. Which really isn’t surprising in that these people are detached from the lives of everyday Citizens and are insulated from the consequences.

    Young men fight the wars that old men start.

      CommoChief in reply to nordic_prince. | March 10, 2022 at 3:13 pm

      Plus those conflicts promoted/encouraged/begun by old Women and of course it’s the relatively young women as well as relatively young men who do the fighting, the bleeding and the dying.

This is just a joke to the parasite class because they know the spigot of taxpayer cash is about to be turned back on after it was stopped when Dictator Dementia bailed in the sand box.

Billie Jean is now fat and old and has lost a step. But she’s going to challenge Putin to a tennis match–and when he comes to the net, she’s going spike a tennis ball into his groin. That will show him!

Okaaay–as for me I’d rather load Pelosi in a chopper, have her flown over 50 feet over Putin’s head and she can be pitched out on top of him.

What? The Dixie Chicks were unavailable?

    Title 9 has become a joke, all you
    Need to say is ,” I’m a woman and you can have all the rights of a real woman”

    Shame on. Billie and Nazinan for selling out women

      valleyboy in reply to gonzotx. | March 11, 2022 at 7:54 pm

      Hi gonzo, nice to see you again. I am an alumni of Hi44, sure miss that place. I think Billie Jean has lost it, Pelosi had little to lose to start with.

I’m not that up on the details of US government operations, but why is the speaker of the House performing foreign relations?

healthguyfsu | March 10, 2022 at 2:28 pm

I’m no longer allowed on twitter…too many mean tweets to people that can’t take criticism while giving their critical hot takes all day to their echo chamber.

Dear Pelosi, We are facing a “burden” of your conception. We appeal to your brand of ethics, and bray that you send double-edged scalpels NOW. Sincerely, post-coup Kiev in the midst of a Slavic Spring to retain control in darkness.

I’ll take ‘Things That Never Happened’ for 500 Alex.
