Can anyone justify Pelosi’s actions?
I'll try: Pelosi is an asshole.
I thought that she may be trying to placate the real leaders of the Democratic Party, ie AOC and squad.
I cannot however disagree with your response.
I cannot but I would like to see another’s point of view.
The Iowa cauc ass was a real show!

Plain and simple though the last quarter they were outplayed.
Mahomes played an excellent game.
If you cannot beat your opponent, claim your opponent cheated and you should be the winner.

Trump is not the NFL Commissioner but he is obviously smart enough to get elected President.

My country was called to stand against communism in Viet Nam. I was drafted out of college and I served. When I returned to the world and walked into LAX a dirty hippie girl spit on my chest. I walked on but I am not certain that I could do it again.
A friend flew into Chicago and some girl smeared a handful of dog poop on his chest. She lived to tell about it.
When on patrol one day, my best friend was shot in the head by a VC sniper. I dispatched the sniper and carried my friend about one click to an LZ.
I found out that I didn’t start that war but I was caught up in it. I am not a fan of communism or socialism.
I thought our country had outgrown the service bashing of our brave and loyal service men and women but your cute meme proves me wrong.
Don’t call on me to save your ass again.

Agreed, but it is towards 'commissioned officers' and not civilian military leadership.
The President is the Commander in Chief of the military.
Is Lt. Col. Vindman guilty of a violation of Article 89 of the UCMJ?
How about setting the Senate rules just like Shiff made the House rules? Don’t let the Democrats ask questions or bring forth witnesses. How about mis quoting and false witnesses. Keep everything secret from the dems. What is fair for one body is fair for the other. Let’s keep witnesses in secret. Don’t you agree?

I sure remember what "behind the wood shed" meant. The few times I had to march back there were more about the fanfare than any real whippin. I learned pretty quick how to avoid spending time back there. When mom told me she would wash my mouth out with soap if I ever swore, I believed her. (She's one hot headed Irish woman), Dad is gone now but his way of rearing myself and my three siblings left an indelible mark on each of us that have served us well as we go through life. Makes me sad now as I listen to my daughter-in-law brag about the amount of money she spends on behavior therapy for her nine year old son. Best therapist in Boulder she says. I don't think dad spent near that much on a willow twig.

Maybe we are brothers. There is more from the other side. My Dad coached the knot hole baseball team and helped with the junior high football team. My mother never missed a high school track meet. Both parents never missed a high school football game, a basket ball game or a horse show.
My parents always walked across the field with me on parents night. My mother was diagnosed with cancer when I was 15. She was in and out of the hospital for the remainder of her life.
Kids from town would come to our house in the winter to ice skate. My mother always made a large pot of soup and made sure no one got too cold.
The last football game of my sophomore year was parents night. My mother was in the hospital and very weak. As we lined up to walk across the field, to my surprise, an ambulance drove onto the field and my mother managed to get out and walk across the field with my dad and I to a standing ovation. The ambulance drove around the field and picked her up then drove to the end of the field, opened the back of the ambulance, got propped up and watched the game. The ambulance took her back to the hospital.
She passed away 3 months later while I was holding her hand.
I had GREAT roll models.

Nice theory (not really, but I'm trying to be polite), but do you have any facts?
I gave you a copy of the President’s oath of office word for word. Adam Shift’s translation of the phone call was “Do ‘me’ a favor...” in fact President Trumps words were, “Do ‘us’ a favor...” meaning the USA.
If you haven’t noticed, Trump has in fact been impeached.
The American Presidency. The Oath of Office: I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.
The swearing in of the President requires the President to uphold the Constitution. Should the President witness someone violate the Constitution, it is his responsibility to report that violation.
President Trump did find that a former Vice President did, in fact, pressure a foreign country to give his son a highly lucrative position in order to receive a large sum of money from the United States. That quid pro quo was illegal.
If President Trump let that act slide, he would be in violation of his oath.
If he investigated, he would be impeached.
Something seems amiss in this situation.
Canadians have been trying for almost three years to dig up dirt on our President and cause him to be removed from office immediately.
Our intelligence agencies cannot find any crimes he has committed after years of investigation.
The latest charges have been taking out terrorist mastermind and preventing war crimes to US citizens. The Constitution states that the President is the Commander in Chief of the military. Political adversaries claim that the Constitution is wrong and congress is in fact the Commander in Chief.
I am concerned that those foreign operatives will continue meddling in our elections and never be held responsible for their crimes until our country is reduced to a socialist regime.
