U fail 2 inform her approval rating significantly lower realDonaldTrump Proving that you’re nothing but a political arm of progressive party DefundNPR NinaTotenberg tamarakeithNPR 1a lackeys are no better. In fact their “unbiased Schlick” only makes them duplicitous

Why? Whats going on in dc hasn’t been working for awhile now, need some new faces in Washington.

Freedom Caucus Yo-yo Ted Yoho made dozens of dishonest and misleading statements about the shutdown and the Democrats position on border security. The Democrats do support funding for border security. The WALL is not about securing the border, it’s about securing Trump’s base.

Who was the GOP idiot just now equating Nancy Pelosi's refusal to fund a 'wall' with refusing to fund border security altogether? Only caught part while listening in the car. I hate this kind of intellectual dishonesty.

Happy for SpeakerPelosi but continue to be baffled from decorating standpoint by maple gavel. Am I hallucinating entire rest of joint is walnut?

At least the Republicans gave her a normal gavel I remember the jokingly large one she gave Banner

I just heard your 'love fest' reporting of Pelosi back in the saddle... Funny how you didnt play the gaff she made when she missed a few pages... NPR would have played that on realDonaldTrump over and over..

She is my freaking hero

She is also the first woman to be elected as speaker in 2019!!

What a doucebag

Nancy is a multi-millionaire SYMBOLISM over SUBSTANCE * TALKING HEAD * that really doesn't usually talk all that coherently. Really...

A white gavel? Really?

This is a big fat mistake 🙄✋️

“And Democrats also plan to vow lawmakers will get 72 hours to review any legislation before it gets a floor vote.” Sanity & ethics at last!

It will be fun watching her smack her gums during the SOTU.

It's a great day for women, and a great day for Democrats!

So awesome!!!!!!!! 👠

While Paul Ryan slinks off to his million-dollar lobbying gig.

Pelosi is willing to let the world burn as long as those corporate donations keep on rolling in and she can maintain her death grip on power. She doesn’t care about future generations having a livable planet, just wants to fortify her bunker at her vineyard. PlutocratPelosi

Sam Rayburn is good company

I want to be like SpeakerPelosi when I grow up 🤗❤️🙌🏻

Go Nancy! MadameSpeaker ForThePeople

Mama gonna knock you out!

Urgency builds to end shutdown as House prepares to voteNew House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is set to pass a package of government funding bills aimed at reopening the quarter of the government that’s closed and shirking President Donald Trump’s border wall Trump could solve this by simply depositing a couple hundred grand into one of her offshore accounts... although I suspect Schumer would demand a cut as well Hello Bot! stop calling the wall “Trumps wall”. WE THE PEOPLE demand that wall. Americans want our country in tact for our children and their children! we don’t want sharia law, we don’t want welfare spent on illegal criminals breaking into our country.
