Nancy Pelosi is at it again with the juvenile name calling game after democrats embarrassed themselves in the House Judiciary Committee’s hearing with Attorney General William Barr.
Pelosi said the Attorney General was “like a blob” and a “henchman for the president.”
She also accused Barr of sending in federal agents into cities effected by the riots who acted as “storm troopers.”
The Washington Times has the story:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Tuesday said Attorney General William P. Barr is little more than a “henchman” for President Trump.
Mrs. Pelosi said Mr. Barr needs to answer for what happened in Lafayette Square near the White House on June 1, when law enforcement cleared protesters from the area before Mr. Trump’s march over to the front of St. John’s Church.
“He was like a blob,” Mrs. Pelosi, California Democrat, said on MSNBC. “He was like a — just a henchman for the president of the United States instead of the attorney general of the United States of America.”
"I just thought he was despicable and so beneath the dignity of an attorney general,” she said. “He is there to support the president, Donald Trump, no matter what. He’s not the president’s lawyer. That was Michael Cohen, and you know what happened to him.”
The Hill with more:
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) tore into Attorney General William Barr after his testimony on Capitol Hill on Tuesday, accusing him of acting like a “henchman” for President Trump.
“He was like a blob. He was like a, just a henchman for the president of the United States, instead of the attorney general of the United States of America,” Pelosi said on MSNBC.
Pelosi particularly targeted Barr over the administration’s decision to send federal law enforcement officers to certain cities. Barr has defended the move to send officers to guard federal property in Portland, Ore., amid protests that have at times turned violent.
“[P]eaceful protest is who we are and what we do. And do some other people come along and try to disrupt? Yes. But you don’t send in people acting like stormtroopers into the scene and evoking even more, even more unease and unrest,” Pelosi said.
The remarks come after Barr sustained withering criticism from Democrats during Tuesday’s hearing in front of the House Judiciary Committee.
Speaker Pelosi just loves to take cheap shots at people she disagrees with, by revealing herself as the hypocrite that she truly is.
Perhaps she should both look in the mirror, and make an effort to play by the rules she cries about all the time.
Nervous Nancy may be pulling out all the stops because she fear's President Donald Trump will be reelected come November.
The sad thing is, the more she tries, the more she reveals herself to be a hypocritical political snake.
