      When has Nancy Pelosi ever taken responsibility for anything?

      She was recently bragging about knowing the Iraq War was based on a lie in 2002 because she's a ranking member of the House Intel Committee and had to see all their raw intelligence to support their claims. She voted no on the war, but didn't feel like sharing what she knew with the rest of Congress. It might have been helpful if one of the 4 House members who got to see the flimsy intel that was leading to war would have, I don't know, said something about that to everyone else who didn't get direct access to the Bush administration's evidence.

      She also keeps dangling Trump's taxes over voters every 2 years, even though she could ask the Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, Democratic Rep. Richard Neal, to just release them since he has that power. There's literally nothing in the way of releasing them right now, but she won't because she has nothing else to offer her voters. She promised she would release them in 2017 if Dems won the House, they did, and she fucked off. Now she's saying she'll release them if we vote Trump out of office, meaning we will get to see his taxes only after he no longer has power. So fucking helpful, Nancy, thanks.

    Ignorance of the law is no excuse! Our brave law enforcement officers would have been 100% justified in executing her on the spot via 7 bullets to the back.

      I don't think a cop could kill a Democrat. They are able to surrender faster than humanely possible. They'd try to shoot and she'd already be in handcuffs in the van.

    Honestly this is such an embarrassing and avoidable scandal for her. She’s the motherfucking Speaker of the House and she’s saying that she or her aides couldn’t be bothered to literally just do a google search to find out if she was allowed to go to a salon? Plus she’s a millionaire. Just hire someone to come to your mansion and have them do your hair there.

      That was my first thought, seriously how hard would that have been? I'm shocked that she even goes to a salon in the first place. Just another boomer doing goofy boomer shit.

    I love watching the libs on Twitter be like "yeah but Donald Drumpf and his cronies don't wear masks! Why aren't you mad at them??" thinking that they are conducting some sort of massive own...

    Yeah, people don't care about the Repubs because they aren't the ones telling people to wear masks ffs.

      I think it was yesterday, blew up on twitter.. I really don't care but I love that everytime I see Pelosi in the news it's always the most cringeworthy stuff imaginable.

      She's a walking self-own at this point.

          Try doing a haircut yourself, if quarantine is still a thing where you live no one will see you anyway if you mess it up.

          seconding the self-cut, it's a nice feeling of self-sufficiency

            I've tried self-cuts before and I always come out looking like I live in a prison camp. I'm just gonna get shaggy as hell until barber shops are safe to go to again.

              practice makes perfect, at first I looked like I was in a POW camp, now I look like I'm in a minimum security furlough program

                The problem is I need to wait like 2 months between attempts and I don't know of anything I've been even reasonably good at after trying it twice in 4 months.

              Idk about everyone looking like POW's, I just follow this guide and it looks pretty good, you can vary the length on top to your liking(oviously if it's not your style you'll probably hate it more than looking like a POW).

    tbf there's a good chance she's not wrong

    like, she actually got set up and told "don't mind a mask, we're all wearing ours" and footage released to the tune of hundreds of thousands of unwashed dollars

    but the point it, if you're an elected official, and encouraging a platform, by all means, follow through

    A set up? Did someone construct an elaborate conspiracy to cut your hair?

      The funny part is she wasn't even getting it cut.

      She's so rich she goes to the salon to get her hair washed and blowdried...
