If Pelosi is against you capitulating to Republicans, you know you fucked up.

PELOSI‽‽ PELOSI GREW A SPINE‽‽

WHAT TIMELINE ARE WE IN

[-] Fiction@lemm.ee 33 points 2 days ago

Pelosi didn’t grow a spine. She probably sees some way of increasing her net worth.

[-] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 20 points 2 days ago

Or she sees it as bad politics, because it is bad politics.

[-] Seleni@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Isn’t she retiring soon?

[-] Sirus@lemm.ee 1 points 2 days ago

No before she goes to the Republican side because schumer made a bad decision. Wouldn't that be hilarious?

[-] Melatonin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 40 points 2 days ago

Pelosi is a armchair quarterback. She can be all tough because she didn't have a part to play this time.

If she had been involved she'd have rolled over like a thing that rolls over a lot.

Having grown up with that show, pretty sure I was unconsciously channeling that energy. xD

Do you have to keep voting like that, you bloated sack of protoplasm?!

[-] sndmn@lemmy.ca 35 points 2 days ago

Thanks to Chuck, Amy isn't even the worst Schumer any more.

[-] harrys_balzac@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 days ago

I laughed and cried when I read this.

God grant every Democrat the bravery of the ones not running for reelection

[-] Numinous_Ylem@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Yeah right, shut the fuck up and get out of our way already Nancy.

[-] AntelopeRoom@lemm.ee 22 points 2 days ago

Schumer don't be an impotent bitch

[-] circuitfarmer@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 2 days ago

Pelosi is just as spineless. More than likely, the instant backlash was probably surprising to these folks since they're so amazingly out of touch. If it starts to look like trouble for reelection/pocketbook, then they pretend to be activists.

[-] unemployedclaquer@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 days ago

Haven't clicked on the article, not sure yet. Based on these comments though, if i had literally no other information, either Pelosi or Schumer is super old and bad and needs to retire.

I do have some information though. Both of them need to go away. They still have Bernie Sanders so we should avoid the Jan 6 strategy.

[-] MegaUltraChicken@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

That's because Chuck Schumer is a punk ass bitch.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
