OPINION:
There is a bad case of abuse of power and the pot calling the kettle black when it comes to Democratic elected officials who are ignoring their sworn duties.
During the Mueller investigation, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her tribe of fools said they had evidence against President Trump for collusion with Russia. Then, when they couldn’t prove that, Mrs. Pelosi and her band of merry men came up with a quid-pro-quo charge, saying Mr. Trump had violated the law when dealing with the Ukraine because he’d asked for an investigation into Joe Biden’s son after ’Uncle Joe’ bragged about getting rid of the prosecutor investigating corruption in a company that Hunter Biden worked for.
I have been in law enforcement or involved with law-enforcement matters for many years, so I do know what a criminal act looks like. That brings me to Mrs. Pelosi and Sen. Chuck Schumer. These two had the unmitigated gall to hold up the coronavirus aid bill for those in serious need of help. Mrs. Pelosi strong-armed and blackmailed the Republicans into putting unrelated cash requests into her liberal causes, such as the fine arts, at a reported cost of $500 million. If the Republicans didn’t give in, there was no deal. That’s a serious case of quid pro quo and it shows total disregard for those suffering during a crisis.
Not only is Mrs. Pelosi an affront to any normal-thinking person, she also has no morals and doesn’t represent “We the People.” She should be removed from office and brought up on criminal charges for obstruction of justice, interference in an investigation and lying during the Mueller investigation.
