    This argument reveals that she thinks both sides are playing the same game. Progressives don’t support corrupt leaders. MTG does.

      Then who is supporting Nancy Pelosi?

      Quip aside, let’s bring on the sunlight.

          She has famously had an abysmal approval rate nationwide, but she gets more votes than her opponents so she gets to keep her seat.

          Like Mitch McConnell, MTG, Lauren Boebert, or Matt Gaetz.

          Ugh… I don’t really want to be that guy, but she was well liked when she was first in office. In fact, I dare say she was cool once when she advocated for more AIDS support in the late 80s and pissed off Reagan, which is always good. But that was around when I was born, haha.

          Unfortunately House seats rarely see competition, and I’m certain she grew complacent with age. Almost 40 fucking years, oof.

          She’s not the best, but she’s not the worst. Her biggest crime is what, using insider knowledge to trade stocks?

          It’s not like she gave a list of our spies to the Russians. Or likely sold classified documents. She didn’t betray our allies. (Do I mean the Ukrainians, the Afghanis, or the Kurds?)

          She was miles better than Manchin or McConnell. She wasn’t our best, but she sure as hell wasn’t a Republican. She got vilified primarily because she was a prominent Democrat for years. And it stuck because there was more than zero legitimacy.

          They vilified her so much that some douchebag went after her and her husband with a hammer. There’s a reason they didn’t go after Manchin or Sinema or Menendez or McConnell or Gaetz.

      Or it reveals an intention by the republicans to release a flood of bad faith ethics reports on Democrats

        Oh no, republicans released the kraken.

        Oh wait, nevermind, it looks like trump just scribbled with some crayon. And the occasional sharpie
