If not for Nancy Pelosi Biden would not be in the White House today.

Everyone talks about how old the President is. Nancy is 3 years older than he is and she saved the Republic while walking rapidly wearing heels and talking on the phone.

All hail! NANCY IS A BOSS!
A great patriot and I can’t wait to see a monument dedicated to her.

day and I keep hoping there is some footage where she is walking backwards in her heels while on the phone saving the Republic.

PS - Thank you Governor Richards for the image.

What she did to preserve democracy is historical.

On TOP of all that she did for four terrible years to fight and keep hope alive.

She stood to to toe with the orange monster, stared him down, shrunk him down to size, and defeated him.


(I like the gif. A picture is worth 50,00 volts!)

fighting/taking on/standing up to anything and not stopping Republicans, being spineless, any whiff of both sides.

Without Democratic leadership with experience and contacts nobody would've know what to do. Reminds me of an old The Onion video where after Republican gridlock nobody in Congress remembers how to pass a law.

She was undoubtedly amazing, but I like that he gets a lot saltier at the bureaucratic BS the many acting secretaries, either out of incompetence or indifference, are trying to feed him. "Just answer my question!"

Pelosi were on the phone with him. He said something very forcefully and dripping with sarcasm...something to the effect of: "Why don't you get the Capitol cleared Mr. Attorney General, in your role as chief law enforcement officer."

He wasn't playing around.
