I KEEP FUCKING TELLING PEOPLE SHE HAS BEEN INDICTED!
Look at the house floor proceeding schedule this week:
https://clerk.house.gov/
Click "Legislative Info" to see different days. Look at the first actions each day. She appoints a Temporary Speaker. Even on Wed when she was there, she was only a rep NOT THE SPEAKER. WHY?
Because both the dems and reps have rules that if you are Indicted, or convicted of a crime YOU MUST RECUSE YOURSELF FROM ALL HOUSE LEADERSHIP POSITIONS.
..."a Democratic Member who is indicted for a felony for which a sentence of two or more years imprisonment may be imposed would "cease to exercise the powers of chairman or ranking minority member and shall step aside.... "6 In 2005, the Democratic Caucus adopted a provision requiring a member of the Democratic leadership of the House to step aside temporarily when they have been indicted for a felony for which a sentence of two or more years imprisonment may be imposed."
Rule 4. Temporary Step-Aside of a Member of the Leadership Who Is Indicted
A) The Speaker, Democratic Leader, Democratic Whip, Assistant Speaker, Chair or Vice Chair of the Caucus, Chair of the DCCC, any one of the DPCC Co-Chairs, CLR, or FLR who is indicted for a felony for which a sentence of two or more years of imprisonment may be imposed shall step aside and cease to exercise the power of their office.
B) Upon the step-aside of the Member, the Caucus may determine who shall exercise those powers on a temporary basis.
C) If the Member steps aside pursuant to paragraph A, and subsequently the charges are dismissed or reduced to less than a felony as described in paragraph A, or if the Member is found not guilty of such charges, that Member shall automatically resume the powers and the duties of that office unless the Caucus decides otherwise within 10 legislative days.
Thanks! I don't think someone as egotistical as Nancy would willingly give up a second in the spotlight in the crusade against the Bad Orange Man. I could very easily be wrong but SOMETHING is definitely happening with her.
I was under the impression she was out for those few days was due to a bad reaction to the vaccine? Her left eye was barely open, but I could be wrong as with everything else going on.
