Nancy Pelosi is finding out that the gavel is a poisoned chalice:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was quoted Monday as saying she is not in favor of impeaching President Donald Trump, breaking from other Democrats who are eager to exercise their constitutional power to oust the president from office.Well, that's good to know. Do you think she's actually in control of her caucus, though? She just got rolled by the Big Three on the meaningless anti-hate resolution. She's not going to be able to move much of anything on her agenda, either. How's that working out for her?
In an exclusive interview with the Washington Post’s Joe Heim, Pelosi said Trump is “just not worth it.”
“I’m not for impeachment,” Pelosi, D-Calif., said. “This is news. I’m going to give you some news right now because I haven’t said this to any press person before.”
Meanwhile, our neighbor Ilhan Omar is continuing to demonstrate her commitment to avoiding hate in her own inimitable style:
Freshman Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., told Fox News on Monday that it was "silly" to compare President Trump with former President Barack Obama, adding: "One is human. The other is really not."Dehumanize your opponents? That should satisfy everyone.

That wasn't a very nice thing to say about barrack Obama.
There is an expression of leadership, which I think fits Ms. Pelosi to a tee. It is supposed to have come from Mahatma Gandhi. “There goes my people. I must follow them, for I am their leader.”
Sometimes in the DNC, it is hard to separate who is leading from behind from those who are following from the front. As Ms. Pelosi's grasp of reality slips away it will be interesting to see when her money no longer has the desired effect on the rest of the caucus.

That’s a brilliant point, John. Pelosi’s main source of her power is her ability to make it rain. Omar and AOC don’t seem to care about that, which raises a lot of questions. In some ways both of them get gifts in kind by being quote machines for the MSM, but there’s almost certainly more going on.
Omar's description of Trump as not really human could have been spoken by any of the genocidal dictators of the 20th Century. Just sayin'.
