Check this:
Ocasio-Cortez backs Pelosi for speaker as Dem rebellion falters - Meanwhile, Rep. Brian Higgins, D-N.Y. who told NBC News last week he would not vote for Pelosi, reversed course Wednesday.

YOU ALL WERE LIED TO - AGAIN!

These freshmen got to the Congress photo shoot, were taken to a back room and told what was what!

MUAHAHAHAAHA This is GREAT!

see - House approval rating drop below 15%


The Dems couldn't make it 3 weeks before getting in their own way!


Patting self on back, because I was right!



I will say it again, "Cortez is an "air head."

Cortez is one of the new Republican bogeymen. Add her to the list with Hillary, Maxine and Pelosi. What do the 4 have in common? Answer: They`re women.
So you think the criticism of all of them is due to sexism ?

Interesting - she hasn't even taken office and the reactionaries are going nuts and taking really petty pot shots. That's all they got.

Nancy still needs some more support come January, but I'm sure she'll get it.

they attack, slander and threaten those they are scared of...






Generally speaking republicans are either crafty greedy scum or really stupid .


why?

well republicans spent 30 years attacking democrats for wanting a full and fair healthcare system...
now after 30 years of bankruptcy, death and pain they have finally figured out Dems were right all along..
.


and there you have it. Time after time Repubs catch up but it takes a generation or two ...
they are just not that bright.

Pelosi wins the election by House Democrats to be the next speaker of the House 203-32. Fifteen of those no votes will have to flip for her to win when the vote is taken by the whole House. It appears this is likely to happen, but it will actually have to happen for her to win.

Democrats, by secret process, have nominated Nancy Pelosi to be Speaker. It will be voted on by the full chamber come January.



The revolutionaries tried to meet with her, but she brushed them off.



Welcome to 2008. Brought to you by the DNC.

Maybe. The entire House votes for Speaker, not just the Ds. She can make deals with Rs too, you know.

Very fascinating to watch.

Trump has already promised Pelosi that she will get the GOP votes to win the speakership.



Doesn't really matter what the "progressives" & "new guard" in the DNC want.
