Pelosi defended Swalwell and attacked McCarthy instead.
To me that makes her complicit in the espionage.
They've completely taken over the democrat Party
Can you imagine? A Dim on the intel committee was banging a Chinese spy and she planted an intern in his office and handled campaign money for him...and Pelosi blasts McCarthy for DARING TO CALL OUT SWALLOWWELL?
Progressive = progress toward Communism
You are obsessed and radicalized. Your Pavlovian response to the words "liberal", "progressive", and "socialism", is Orwellian. Trump tweets and you come here and amplify is daily hate filled screeds, as gospel.
This assault on the 2020 Presidential Elections is proof positive that the Republican Party has no interest in standing up for the Constitution, and simply sought to keep Trump as President by any means necessary, and try to slap a Supreme Court decision on their coup to give it some thin veneer of legality.
Republicans proved when Clinton was President, that they would do ANYTHING to get a Democrat out of the White House. Under Trump, they have proven they are drunk with power and will do ANYTHING to keep it, even as 3000 Americans are dying every day, due to their failure to carry out the primary responsibility of government: to keep the American people safe.
Trump lied about President Obama's birth certificate. I have long believed that the whole "birther conspiracy" campaign was market research for just how gullible the American people really are, and Trump learned that 30% of Republicans will believe anything a fellow Republican tells them.
You are part of that 30%. Regardless of how many times Trump lies to you, you believe him, and no matter how many times Democrats tell you the truth, you call them liars. Such is the upside down world of Republicans.
"Your Pavlovian response ..."
I always get a kick out of you knowledge-challenged Bolsheviks put your foot.....in your case 'feet'...in your mouths.
It is the Left that demands their slaves never do any thinking.
Case in point:
" In October 1919, Lenin paid a secret visit to the laboratory of the great physiologist I. P. Pavlov, a Russian physiologist known chiefly for the concept of the conditioned reflex. In his classic experiment, he found that a hungry dog can be trained to associate the sound of a bell with food and will salivate at the sound even in the absence of food.
Lenin wanted to find out if his work on the conditional reflexes of the brain might help the Bolsheviks control European behaviour.
“I want the masses of Russia to follow a Communistic pattern of thinking and reacting,” Lenin explained.
Pavlov was astounded.
It seemed that Lenin wanted him to do for humans what he had already done for dogs.
“Do you mean that you would like to standardise the population of Russia? Make them all behave in the same way?” he asked.
“Exactly” replied Lenin.
“Man can be corrected. Man can be made what we want him to be.”…
Orlando Figes, "A People's Tragedy," p.732-733
Lenin would be proud of you, you dolt.
Is there a point to your twaddle or did you just want to try to link Pavlov with communism? Pavlov was a scientist who proved that behaviour was programmable. Nothing about his research has anything to do with communism, but it's not suprising that those who seek to control men have used similar techniques.
Trump has borrowed a lot of his political techniques from the "Authoritarian's Playbook", and in particular, the one used by Joseph Stalin. Stalin was the first authoritarian to dub the press the "enemy of the people". Hitler first used the phrase "Make Germany Great Again". There's also his vilification of non-white immigrants, and his portrayal of the "others" as less than human - an "infestation".
You continue to try to paint Democrats, and leftists in general, as "communists", which is an utterly false narrative no matter how hard to cling to it. But you also attempt to portray communism is the epitomy of evil, which it is not. Authoritarism is the culprit you should be blaming, but where's the fun in that. Plus there are just as many right wing authoritarians as left, and they're all killers and jackboots, so there's that.
Extreme political radicalization leads to mass death. It's the only way to prevent the other side from rising up against you. Authoritarians kill to maintain power and to keep opposition down. Putin does it, Kim does it, Xi does it. Authoritarians are from both sides of the spectrum.
The American Republican Party this week, abandoned their belief in democracy and wholeheartedly embraced authoritarian dictatorship, openly and without apology. Donald Trump sat back and said and did nothing while 3000 Americans died of covid19 yesterday. All he cared about was retaining power.
And here you are, supposedly an Asian-American woman, who supports an authoritarian dictatorship by a racist, misogynistic, malignant narcissist who just wants the job for the power and the money. This, ladies and gentlemen, is the product of home schooling.
This is anti-American, anti-democracy, banana republic bullshit. This is today's Republican Party voter. Have you had your 3 minutes of hate today?
"You continue to try to paint Democrats, and leftists in general, as "communists", which is an utterly false narrative ..."
Let's check.
How about you take a look at the aims of the Communist Party, USA, and the aims of the modern Democrat Party.
Watch, and note the consubstantial basis of both the aims of the Communist Party and the Democrat Party:
......it is ...extraordinary.....the correspondence between the aims of the communist party and the aims of the Democrats.....
1. Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.
2. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces.
3. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.
4. . Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
5. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making positions.
6. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.
7. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press.
8. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy."
9. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a "religious crutch."
10. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.
11. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man."
12. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture--education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
13. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce
Now....wouldn't an honest appraisal agree that all or almost all are clearly the aims and direction of Democrats/Liberals/Progressive leaders?
I got 'em from a website of declared communist goals...

And this:
"Government control of private sector activity...is aptly described as Bolshevik- or Marxist, socialist, collectivist, statist, or, for that matter, fascist, too.
Indeed, nationalized health care was one of the first programs enacted by the Bolsheviks after they seized power in 1917(Banks, insurance companies and means of communications were also taken over by Soviet authorities immediately."
