Nancy Pelosi Stiff Arms Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
I am almost ready to declare Nancy Pelosi's current reign as House speaker a positive because of this one move.

 Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez didn’t get a seat on the powerful tax-writing committee where she sought to push her progressive agenda of Medicare for All, free college tuition and a green new deal, reports Reuters.

Pelosi, instead, gave the slot on the House Ways and Means Committee to (hee, hee) a former accountant, Democrat Rep. Tom Suozzi of New York.

Ocasio-Cortez sought a spot on the committee—which is usually off limits to freshman reps – with the backing of progressive groups that pushed for a slate of, newly-elected, extreme lefty candidates.

The socialist Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib, who sought a position on the Appropriations Committee, also was passed over by Pelosi.

  1. Robert, I really appreciate how you can find the positive in what is often a steaming pile of cow dung (figuratively speaking, of course).

    It's great to see these two loud-mouths being told they can't have everything they want.

  2. Pelosi is an old school power monger. The last thing she wants are these youngsters overshadowing what she sees as her right to Speakership. Sandy voted for the old hag to be Speaker only to receive something in return. But her little climate change rally in the hags office doesn’t sit well with the not so new Speaker.

  3. I'd like to see these two freshpersons put on some juicy Intelligence Committee, where hopefully they would repeatedly and inadvertently blab all of the government's most precious secrets.

  4. Pelosi and her cronies should enjoy their power and privilege while they can. The future of the Democrat party is as the AWP (Anti White Party).
