Would be nice if Democrats fought Republicans instead of progressives.

They learned nothing in the first 11 months of this year, and they're not about to start now.

[-] NielsBohron@lemmy.world 26 points 6 months ago

Of course she is.

[-] Brkdncr@lemmy.world 21 points 6 months ago

Could you not?

[-] kreskin@lemmy.world 16 points 6 months ago

Strange, how is Pelosi going to make any stock money off such a move?

[-] GeeDubHayduke@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 6 months ago

Nancy "McConnell" Pelosi, still hard at work, fucking over America for personal gain.

Hey, I tried a quick google search but no luck. Was wondering if someone knew what the position entails? What does a member of the house oversight committee work to do? Forgive my ignorance. Thanks in advance!

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

It's basically the investigative arm of Congress. When you see random people answering questions in committee it's generally this committee. A good example is the steroid scandal in baseball. They called in all kinds of people to testify to Congress on that.

Oh ok that makes sense. I could see AOC being a good pick for that as she is very direct and not afraid to call out BS. I think the committee would be most effective composed of a diverse group of representatives both young and old.

Conservatives love making AOC the face of the party. I don't think Pelosi is wrong.

[-] Croquette@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 months ago

And AOC doesn't have issues with clap backs. She is definitely the right person for the job.

Two things:

Pelosi has clearly been enriched by her office via insider trading.

Living in fear of how conservatives will call you names is a cowards position, on top of being ineffective.

Nancy Pelosi needs to GTFO. Why does she have any power at all to be calling these shots? She's a criminal. We dont need 84 year old oligarchs in government positions at all. We should have an age limit, and a wealth limit in order to be eligible serve.
