Lawmakers File Ethics Complaint, Resolution Condemning Pelosi For Ripping Up Speech

Multiple lawmakers indicated on Wednesday that they were taking action against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) for ripping up President Donald Trump’s State of the Union Address last night.

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) wrote on Twitter: “BREAKING: I’m filing an ethics complaint against @SpeakerPelosi for destroying @realDonaldTrump’s State of the Union speech. Her conduct was beneath the dignity of the House, and a potential violation of law (18 USC 2071). Nobody is above the law. She must be held accountable.”

In a letter addressed to Ethics Committee Chairman Ted Deutch (D-FL), Gaetz requested that the Committee open an investigation “into Speaker Pelosi’s flagrant violation of decorum, as defined in clauses 1 and 2 of House Rule XXIII, and request a criminal referral for her potential violation of 18 U.S.C. §2071 (Concealment, removal, or mutilation of documents), following President Trump’s recent State of the Union address of February 4, 2020. Her unseemly behavior certainly warrants censure.”

Yes, and they think they ARE the government and that they own and control everything. Republicans are not welcome.

Remember when Pelosi refused to allow Trump to present the state of the union in "Her" house or representatives?

Democrats believe they are so perfect then lets see if they punish Pelosi, since their great phrase from Pelosi, Schiff, Nadler, Jeffers Schumer and all the Democrats is "NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW" includes the Democrats? Are will they have a "fair trial/hearing" on Pelosi like they did for Trump in the House?

You won't see Tina Fay making fun of her on SNL tearing it up and eating it your stuffing in her bra. That was just a ridiculous butt hurt unprofessional display. Sometimes reserve makes a stronger statement but we are beyond all that now everyone has to be over the top sensational.

5:39 - When the democrat party is replaced. When term limits are set for all. When retired politicians are not permitted in lobbying positions. When minority fringe freaks do not control the majority. This would be a start.
