If the GOP takes the House, Pelosi resigns – Flopping Aces

She knew.

When the Jan 6 Committee was being assembled, Chairman Bennie Thompson made a big deal of saying that “Nothing is off limits.” Nothing was off limits as far as Trump was concerned, that is. However, there was something very specifically to be off limits, according to Thompson.

Nancy Pelosi.

I found that very curious at the time but the reason for this has become crystal clear. A few days ago, the media heralded the release of a “new video” from January 6th. In it, Pelosi is seen fretting, complaining and threatening to punch out Donald Trump.

As you probably know, there are a number of unanswered questions about January 6th, not the least of which is why Pelosi didn’t seek additional security for the Capitol that day. The House Sergeant at Arms, who is appointed by the Speaker of the House, oversees the security of the House and answers to the Speaker. The Sergeant at arms at the time was Steven Sund. Sund did say that the House and Senate rebuffed his requests for additional security. This was later confirmed.

But there are even larger questions.

Did you catch it?  She says, “I’ve been waiting for this, for trespassing on the Capitol grounds.”  Waiting for what, exactly, and since when? Did she know what was coming?

When Kevin McCarthy sets up the next committee- January 6, Part Deux- he needs to ask “what did Pelosi know and when did she know it?” I suspect Pelosi will resign her position in the House before McCarthy can take action.
