Pelosi is as bad as the Fake News folks who are trying to use this crisis to smear Republicans and President Donald Trump, legacy media figures have decided that referring to the coronavirus using any geographic term such as "Wuhan" or "Chinese" is insensitive and racist. Many have suggested that Trump's efforts to pause foreign travel are some sort of dog-whistle. Yet many of the same figures who condemn Trump and Republicans for using geographic terms to describe the virus did the very same thing themselves not so long ago.
Maybe Pelosi should go back to tearing up speeches and let the adults handle the work of the American People.
Sasse Rips Pelosi for Trying to Smuggle Hyde Amendment Loophole into Coronavirus Package.
She's deranged, driven and blood-thirsty.
Calling Pelosi out on her madness.
Senator Ben Sasse (R., Neb.) slammed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) and Democrats for trying to ensure federal funding for abortion as part of the coronavirus economic stimulus plan.
“While schools are closing and hospitals are gearing up, Speaker Pelosi is waging unnecessary culture wars. Speaker Pelosi should be fighting the coronavirus pandemic, not politicizing emergency funding by fighting against the bipartisan Hyde Amendment,” Sasse told National Review in a statement. “We need to be ramping up our diagnostic testing, not waging culture wars at the behest of Planned Parenthood. Good grief.”
Diabolical Pelosi attempted to secure a funding stream of up to $1 billion for reimbursing "laboratory" claims. That provision would establish a precedent under which health claims for all procedures, including abortion, could be reimbursed with federal funds. That precedent would render the Hyde Amendment, which blocks taxpayer funding for abortion clinics, obsolete.
Pelosi resisted efforts by Democrats to end the Hyde Amendment in recent months, with
proregressives being
forced to abandon an attempt to “ensure” abortion coverage for people using federal health programs as part of a $190 billion budget bill passed in July.
“It is the law of the land right now, and I don’t see that there’s an opportunity to get rid of it with the current occupant of the White House and this U.S. Senate,” Vile Pelosi said at the time, admitting that she does not support the Hyde Amendment.
Pelosi fought tooth and nail with Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin Thursday, with the crazed Speaker finally coming to her senses and dropping the matter.
Pelosi’s tactics were confirmed by Commie Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.), who claimed in an interview on Fox News Thursday night that “right now we are hearing that some of the fights and some of the gridlock is because people are trying to put "
pro-life" provisions into this.”
"Obviously there will be other bills.” Pelosi darkly warned after being forced to retreat by vigilant Republicans.
