Pelosi Delays Impeachment Inquiry Authorization Vote, Claims ‘All Roads Seem to Lead to Putin’ With Trump
Wait. Putin is president of Ukraine? I know that’s what he wants, but last time I checked, Ukraine broke away from Russia in the early 1990s.
The far-left played Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. HARD.
She announced today she will not bring an impeachment vote to the House floor. As she stumbled in her explanation, she threw out, “All roads seem to lead to Putin with the president.”
Um, the impeachment inquiry is in regard to Ukraine, ma’am. You know, Russia’s foe.
You can laugh now because it seems like the Democrats’ war against President Donald Trump chips away every single day.
It all started the day Trump released the phone call transcript between himself and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. It had no “quid pro quo” or anything impeachable.
Zelensky himself has said many times Trump did not pressure or blackmail him into investigating Vice President Joe Biden’s role in the firing of Ukrainian prosecutor general Viktor Shoklin in 2016.
As usual, Pelosi spewed out the typical talking points. I wonder if they ever think we truly believe them:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced after meeting with the House Democratic caucus on Tuesday that there will be no vote — at least for now — on the launch of formal impeachment proceedings against President Trump.
“There’s no requirement that we have a vote, and so at this time we will not be having a vote,” Pelosi said. “We’re not here to call bluffs — we’re here to find the truth, to uphold the Constitution of the United States. This is not a game for us. This is deadly serious.”
A congressional aide familiar with House Democrats’ discussions told Fox News that many House Democrats did not want to be seen as letting the White House dictate how the House conducted itself. Last week, the White House sent a fiery letter to House Democrats announcing that it would not cooperate with their inquiry, for several reasons — including that, contrary to past precedent, no formal vote had been held on whether to begin impeachment proceedings.
Pelosi ripped those arguments: “They have no substance. They can’t defend the president, so they’re going to process,” she said.
In a head-turning moment, Pelosi told reporters, “All roads seem to lead to Putin with the president” — even though Democrats began their probe because of the president’s actions concerning Ukraine, not Russia.
ACKCHYUALLY, Madam Speaker and Democrats (especially you, Rep. Adam Schiff), you do not have a case against Trump.
I thought you were impeaching him for working with Putin’s enemies in Ukraine. Pick one collusion narrative and stick with it. https://t.co/BaV18QjXZk

The Democrats have fallen off the cliff. They have reached the point of no return so why bother stopping even if it makes them look crazy?
We all saw it coming, especially when Schiff all of a sudden decided Congress does not need to hear from the whistleblower. You know, the person who started this whole mess when he/she made a complaint based on hearsay and media reports.
Schiff has shot himself in the foot many times:
- Adam Schiff Started Hearing With Fake Quotes From Trump, Ukrainian Transcript
- REPORT: Schiff Knew of Whistle-Blower Accusations Before Complaint Was Filed
- Report: “Whistle-blower” Failed to Disclose Contact with Rep. Schiff’s Staff or Intel Committee Staff
But maybe this is why Pelosi and Schiff have changed their minds:
- Reports: Ukraine Whistleblower had a “Professional Relationship” With 2020 Democratic Candidate
- Report: Ukraine Whistleblower Worked With Biden When He was Vice President
Kemberlee blogged on Tuesday night that the House Republicans have backed a resolution to censure Schiff. From Fox News:
The resolution to censure Schiff — who has become a favorite target of Republicans for his role in the Trump impeachment inquiry — was first introduced late last month by Rep. Andy Biggs, the Arizona Republican who chairs the conservative House Freedom Caucus, and has the support of House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., House Minority Whip Steve Scalise, R-La., and House Republican Conference Chair Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., among other ranking Republicans in the lower chamber of Congress.
Democrats have the majority and control the floor in the House, but Republicans could still attempt to force a vote on the matter.
“Schiff simply does not have the gravitas that a weighty procedure such as impeachment requires,” Biggs wrote in an opinion piece for Fox News. “He has repeatedly shown incredibly poor judgment. He has persistently and consistently demonstrated that he has such a tremendous bias and animus against Trump that he will say anything and accept any proffer of even bogus evidence to try to remove the president from office.”

Nancy, just pick one collusion narrative and stick to it.
She did. She just can’t remember what it was.
Don’t pick on an old woman just because she bumbles a thought here and there! What’s next? Comparing her to Joe “I’ll eliminate the tax by doubling it!” Biden?
Nancy has almost literally impaled herself on
her ridiculous, oversized gavel handle.

Claims ‘All Roads Seem to Lead to Putin’ With Trump
Her GPS isn’t very reliable, it’s sending her down the wrong road.
Here’s how that works – now according to leftists, Trump backed Erdogan in Syria even though Putin is backing Syria. BUT, now Syrian forces backed by Russia are moving in to the area, and Erdogan’s military adventure is going to turn into a disaster for him, and Putin is going to win instead, and Trump knew all of this would happen in advance! See??? Everything leads back to Putin!!!
And all roads lead to “drooling moron” with Pelosi.
“All roads lead to Putin…”
What roads are those? Secret tunnels? Stargates?
Apparently,they don’t need even one scintilla of evidence to impeach. Trump just isn’t “cool” and isn’t allowed to hang with the cool kids.
The truth and the Democrat Party are only passingly acquainted. With their big media propaganda arms there is no reason for Party Members to be truthful.
As in “ships in the night” passingly, or maybe “orbits-of-Mercury-and-Pluto” passingly?
More like “WHEN WORLDS COLLIDE!!!”
Democrats know what truth is – they have to keep out of its way.
“We choose truth over facts.” Pravda agrees. As does Biden.
A continuing thicket of charges is all they want, to inflict continuous damage. The calculation is that it damages Trump more than it damages them, owing to the low quality of voters that watch network news.
She really is out of it. Pelosium 210.
I found the Republican press conference to be much more factual.

Impressive.
The President says he won’t do the House’s bidding until it holds a real-life actual vote on the impeachment charade, so the House will spite him by . . . not holding a vote on it.
I’ve always considered DJT a man of considerable ability, phenomenal energy, basic good sense, and unqualified patriotism. But I discounted speculation about his mind-control powers as hyperbole.
However, things like this get me thinking that perhaps these powers are not only real, but overwhelming.
Most impressive.
There is a method to all this madness, even if it doesn’t seem like it. The Democrats want to deligitimize the entire Trump presidency. That would also involve reversing all the accomplishments in the economy, trade, foreign policy and court appointments. All they need is enough power in DC to begin rolling it all back, including packing the SCOTUS or just impeaching the ones Trump appointed. That’s why they need to establish a narrative that Trump was aided by Russia, he couldn’t appeal to enough voters to win on his own. They lost more than just the presidency in 2016; they lost their grand vision to remake the USA into a progressive utopia.
If they don’t impeach him, he’ll get himself reelected.
If he is reelected he will have more flexibility after the election. ( Or was that the other guy?)
Meanwhile, China has revealed a whole bunch of people, like LaBron James and the NBA, as Communist China tools and fools. The Chinese have been much better at undermining our safety than the Russkis.
…and if the DEMS do impeach the VSGPDJT will be re-elected in the biggest landslide in history.
The low information voters have heard of Russia. They are likely clueless to the existence of Ukraine. Thus, back to Russia! The Dems do not care what we believe. Only the low information voter (CNN viewer) matter.
This is what happens when you build a narrative on a web of lies and falsehoods, eventually you can’t keep all the lies straight.
That was a good one:
“O what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive.”
Mitch should simply tell Nancy, for each day you delay a vote on a formal inquiry I will delay any impeachment trial the same number of days if and when you pass an article of impeachment.
PS- the clock has already started.
Delay, yes. Good idea.
Then refuse to accept as evidence information gathered before the House impeachment vote. All that fruit from poisoned trees and everything.
The clock started twelve trimesters ago. Even the most fervent abortionists would be moderated by their conscience and deem the President viable.
I really don’t understand the R response to D messaging sometimes …
Like “You appear to be getting serious about election meddling. Great! Please demonstrate your commitment to free and fair elections by investigating and prosecuting Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, et al, who meddled in the 2016 election. Otherwise, STFU.”
Actually, I’d prefer Mitch to say something to the effect that since the House only allowed Democrats to participate in investigating Trump, any articles of impeachment they produced would be tried only by Republicans in the Senate.
Wow, that Nancy, what a smoke-show!!
Hey Nancy, would Jesus be impeaching Trump?
That Pelosi’s really a crazy clown.
