Pelosi Derides Mitch McConnell's 'Case Closed' Declaration About Mueller: 'No, I Don't Think So'

...................................

On Tuesday, Pelosi took questions at Cornell University Institute of Politics & Global Affairs’ “Inside Congress” event, and brought up McConnell’s then-forthcoming speech, the punch line of which had been telegraphed in advance.

“Today… on the floor of the Senate, Senator McConnell is reported to be saying ‘Doesn’t matter to hear from Mueller, case closed,'” Pelosi said, then added for emphasis “Case. Closed.”

“No, I don’t think so,” she said with a smile. “I don’t think so. But it’s that same mentality that is just not about doing the right, getting results for the American people, but it’s who he is.:

“I know this is a non-partisan setting, but just as a matter of observation, that’s just not a fact,” Pelosi added. “The case is not closed.”

She called Mitch the 'grim reaper' of congressional legislation.



a few seconds before the timestamp: 58:20 / 1:26:59 She said 'Our impeachment power is a way for getting to the truth.'

This is the second or third time she's threatened impeachment in the Nancy Pelosi way during her appearance.


Also from Speaker Pelosi:

"We have to make sure that the constitution wins the next presidential election." (Timestampish: 1:03:37 / 1:26:59) Goes on to say "We cannot accept a second term for Donald Trump if we are going to be faithful to our democracy and to the constitution of the United States. [aupplaue] and that is just a fact on many fronts. We have to operate in the Congress, in the courts and in the court of public opinion [and] we must win the next election"

She was amazing today. She's laying it all out.

I'm hearing this taken out of context all over the place.

When the E.C. decides, that is it; regardless of if we or the Trumpers agree with it or not. I might have a lot of issues with this president, but anyone not accepting the EC result, regardless of who wins, is technically in revolt, I'm not sure that some on either side are getting the context. Dangerous words.
