Pelosi Tells Republicans to Leave California
Nancy set down her Juvéderm syringe long enough to Tweet the following:
I want every single California Republican to understand this. Your ideology doesn’t come first. Your party doesn’t come first. The PEOPLE come first. If you fail to recognize that, you don’t belong here. https://t.co/xjbyOTI2MC
— Nancy Pelosi (@SpeakerPelosi) December 5, 2017
She describes the tax reform bill as “Armageddon,” so shrill statements are to be expected. Since there are only about 14 Republicans left in California (8 of whom opposed Trump), her audience is limited. It is telling, however, that she thinks people who disagree with her “don’t belong here.”
The illegal alien who murdered Kate Steinle in Pelosi’s hometown does belong here. As do prisoners of war captured on the battlefield in the Middle East. As do poorly vetted refugees who may contain some percentage of Islamists. As does anyone else who shares her contempt for America and the Constitution.
The party always comes first to Pelosi and her ilk. “The people” are far down the list, at least if their last name is Steinle.

Nancy Superba.
To paraphrase a quote from Citizen Kane, she talks about the PEOPLE as if she owns them.
Our good buddy Rob Long lives there. Where does Bill Kristol live? Andrew Klavan, you are welcome in Missouri. VDH belongs to the world, and Peter Robinson wishes he were in Texas anyway. So that covers half of the R’s in CA. Who else is there?
Over tax reform?
I refuse to rise to the bait. It’s not who I am.
Leftists as always are sure that they are the arbiters of good & bad, right & wrong etc.
I don’t follow her, but I’m guessing Nancy has pretty much the entire world blocked.
She needs another blood bath for her wrinkles.
Hey Nancy, does this seem familiar. Elections have consequences.

To be clear, Pelosi the Arrogant just made a distinction between Republicans and “The PEOPLE.” I.e. Republicans are others who are not worthy of representation and who are not welcome in California.
This is her admission that there are, in fact, two codes of law: one for the favored of the left, and one for the rest of us.
Sounds like something Robert Mugabe used to say
I’m assuming that this will garner next to no attention in the press.
Tomorrow: Trump tweets that he likes rum raisin ice cream and is roundly denounced for being a hypocrite on alcohol use.
Excuse me, I need to quibble here.
“The illegal alien who murdered Kate Steinle” was acquitted.
As was pointed out to me by a moderator when I once talked about the cops who murdered Freddie Gray, “the word ‘murder’ is, especially after the acquittals, libelous.”
OJ agrees.
Clint Eastwood and Pat Sajak – the others had to leave
Not the married ones. Nancy’s pogrom targets only single Republicans.
She’s way behind her blue state competition. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said a couple of years ago that people who disagree with him have no place in the state of New York.
Maybe we’re missing the boat here on Trump‘s wall – should it go vertical?
I don’t even get the premise. What do California Republicans have to do with the vote on a federal tax bill?
Maybe it sounded better in the original German.
If Nancy Pelosi thought for a moment that all those crossing the border were going to vote Republican she’d be on the Mexican side of the border cutting their feet off with a hatchet.
The illegal alien who killed Kate Steinle by shooting her.
Better?
Take it away, Remy.
I would argue that a lot of Republicans (or Republicans in spirit only, aka RISOs) have already left California, so Nancy feels quite comfortable having her assistant type something into the laserwebs for her.
I didn’t need another sign that we’re governed by elitists. But I got one. I’d like to take my X-wing and blow up all those signs, and the gnarled, wrinkled elitists who smugly sit behind them, who enslave all of us with debt, and laugh and make millions while doing so.
She’s right. I didn’t belong there. That’s why I left.
Me too.
Maybe the best opening line for a post all year.
This sounds like a refugee program conservatives can get behind, Republicans driven out of California.
Jon,
Nancy can say whatever she wants. Governor Moonbeam can say whatever he wants. Kamala Harris can say whatever she wants. However, I want every single resident of California to sign a one-page document stating that when California goes bankrupt that the other 49 states have no obligation whatsoever to bail California out.
Signed, witnessed, and notarized.
Regards,
Jim

He’s a California agricultural land-owner, is he not? He’s tied to the land. That makes him a Californian.
