THE SHUTDOWN
Nancy Pelosi assumed the position of Speaker of the House and immediately affected a government shutdown by refusing to negotiate or compromise with the other 2 government entities that have a part in getting bills passed into law. Pelosi is refusing to do so in an attempt to hurt the President's re-election chances in 2020, having no problem hurting Americans as long as she can score her 'political hit'.
Her own Democrats have begun to openly talk about how they oppose what she is doing and want to seek compromise - SOME OF THE DEMOCRATS HAVE ALREADY BROKEN RANKS AND HAVE BEGUN WORKING / NEGOTIATING WITH REPUBLICANS :
(D-MI) Rep. Elissa Slotkin:
"There’s a number of us on the Democratic side who are quite concerned that we’re not working on negotiated positions and taking the bull by the horns and trying to think about what it would look like”
(D-GA)
“I hope that we can all come to a compromise because that’s the way things get done”
(D-NJ) Rep. Jeff Van Drew:
“If I had the opportunity to vote for some sort of a deal, I would”
(D-NY) Rep. Anthony Brindisi (D-NY):
“I’ve been meeting with several representatives from across the country, both Democrats and Republicans”
IMPEACHMENT
Socialist Democrat Extremists introduced a Bill calling for the Impeachment of the President, despite having no evidence of having committed any crime, and openly declared thy did not need to wait for evidence / Mueller's final report to do so.
The newly-elected radicals have shown their hand - they want to Impeach Trump, crimes or not. The Older Democrats are trying to hold them down and prevent such action from being taken.
On all fronts Pelosi and Schumer are trying to hold the party together, stamp out fires that keep popping up and rein the radical - and moderate - newbies in.
'The 2018 midterms were a disaster for House Republicans. Democrats gained 40 seats, retook the majority, and, to our horror, Nancy Pelosi is speaker again. They were elected to stop Trump, to block him at every turn, and lead the effort for his impeachment and removal from office. Any Democrat who says otherwise is lying. The base demands Trump go at all costs. The younger, feistier Democrats say that openly. The older crew tries to downplay it, but ultimately that’s their goal. They’re banking heavily that the report by Special Counsel Robert Mueller, who is leading the DOJ’s Russia probe, finds something impeachable. Don’t hold your breath on that; the Russia collusion allegation has been what’s kept Democrats hopeful since 2016. Yet, while doing battle with the Trump White House is a top priority, the progressive Left also wants to clean house in the Democratic Party as well. The party elite is reportedly trying to rein in Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), as they view her antics to be distracting, but they’re also not pleased that she’s willing to help boot fellow Democrats who are viewed as too moderate. Shots have been fired inside the ship.'
(D-MD) Majority Whip Rep. Steny Hoyer is trying to present a solid picture of a United Democratic Party - “We are totally united — totally” - but that could not be farther from the truth right now....
Freshman Dems Turn on Pelosi Over Border Wall, Seek Deal with Trump
