Senate Democrats not Happy With Pelosi Over Articles of Impeachment Hold

Many Senate Democrats are expressing their displeasure with Nancy Pelosi over her decision to hold the Articles of Impeachment in the House of Representatives.

According to The New York Post:

Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) told Politico that House Democrats “should move on” and send the articles to the Senate.

“I think [the trial] needs to start, I really do. I can’t tell the House how to do their business. I would never try to tell Speaker Pelosi … Let us do what we have to do over here,” the red-state Democrat told a Washington Post reporter.

He also acknowledged that Pelosi’s holdout did accomplish one thing: pushing former national security adviser John Bolton to publicly admit his willingness to testify.

Sen. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) told Politico, “We need to get folks to testify and we need more information … but nonetheless I’m ready.”

Many others expressed their displeasure and stated that it is time to move on with the trial and begin to focus on other things. The consensus seems to be that the move backfired for Pelosi.

Mr. Tester, if you need ‘more information’ then the House didn’t do their job properly… enough said.

Pelosi is a Chronic Alcoholic. Play back her speeches and inability to answer reporters questions. Whenever she has to react out of script. Script being her “seasoned” handling of her alcoholism – she fails. The water bottle on her desk and so aften being carried – that’s not water that crsytal clear liquid is “Grey Goose Vodka” her favorite. Placing the opening of a bar as being more important than taking a call from the vice president – that is the alcoholic sense of priorities.
And then there are those YouTube videos asking the viewer “what is Pelosi trying to say?” And you laugh at her muddled speech a incomprehensible commentary. It’s all about chronic alcoholism. Accept that Pelosi is an Alcoholic and suddenly all her behavior and decision or non-decision making will make perfect sense.

Plus the idea that she may be having symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease. Several commentators have said that she appears that way.

Americans, let’s help D.J. and ourselves!

In 1982 an assessment of the actual threats to DOD personnel assigned abroad was conducted by a group of army officers. Their briefing to Reagan’s military chiefs provided the most significant threat was that presented by the Islamic State. That briefing provided one very old principal of war (The best defense is a good offense) and a new one just for the radical Muslim crowd (Kill them in their beds before they kill us in ours) were best suited to meet the threat. No one listened and it has cost America trillions of dollars and thousands of our young people. While you are thanking God for D.J. Trump read the comment below and ask yourselves, when are you going to act to help him save your behinds?

Rape, Pillage,Plunder; America, You’ve Been Had!

How much more before you stand up to those who have made the following lessons learned facts?

1. The American people are the most effectively lied to people in modern times thanks primarily to the American political class, the American bureaucracy, the American media, and American academia.

2. Arrogance coupled with ignorance equals stupidity.

3. The greatest threats to the American people are the corrupt and/or incompetent politicians/bureaucrats/academicians found at every level of government/academia, and the majority of the American so-called media.

4. Most of the politicians/bureaucrats/academicians I have encountered during my years as a soldier/cop I most kindly refer to as; self-serving, witless, cowards.

5. The American Profession of Arms and our brothers/sisters in blue have failed to protect the American people from all of their enemies, both foreign and most especially domestic.

PS These lessons learned were first presented to a gathering of Americans in 1989. The only positive change to the American political environment since then has been the arrival of one, Donald J. Trump!

Watching the treason of the Democrats, trying to illegitimately impeach him with NO High Crimes and Misdemeanors and also by attempting to say he is drugged and/or incompetent ( interesting that drugs were put into his diet cokes and one secret serviceman was killed by poison in food and another made sick but not killed, isn’t it?).
