Escalating tensions on Capitol Hill erupted into a contentious floor fight in the House of Representatives on Tuesday afternoon, as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi spoke in favor of a proposed resolution condemning "racist" comments by President Trump--even as Republican leaders stood steadfast behind the president. When Pelosi's remarks turned personal, Georgia Republican Rep. Doug Collins rose to challenge her and demand that her words be "taken down." The extraordinary rebuke, the first of its kind involving a member of Congress and a speaker of the House in decades, theoretically could result in Pelosi being barred
The most bigoted and racist people in this country are Democrats. When Democrats talk about white privilege, black lives matter, etc. they are indulging in bigotry and racism. Seems odd to me that criticizing some foul mouthed congress critters is “racist” simply because they are white but call Trump every name in the book isn’t.

Its about time we see the GOP grow a spine. Just because you disagree with someone, doesn't make that person a 'racist'. Democrats have hijacked the term for their own political gain, and use it as a weapon to bludgeon anyone they don't like into silence. We are not going to be silent any longer. True racism must be confronted and defeated. False racism, like that being used by Pelosi and Cortez to silence any dissent, must also be confronted and defeated. False racism is no different than these hoaxes we're seeing like Smollet and others. They are lies used to smear and attack someone else to gain a political advantage. Defeat them NOW!

America is lost in a maze of social, corporate and political corruption while drowning in a sea of moral bankruptcy. It's in desperate need of a strong, dedicated, no-nonsense patriotic tyrant to navigate the country out of this ugly mess left by the past and present politicians and the undesirables. So, we have Donald Trump. If he can't fix it, then, it's time to abandon ship.

You know what? I find this all encouraging.
It is good to see Republicans standing up against these hate filled, lying, Democrat bigots. Even if there are a few - Joni Ernst surprises me, but only a bit - that are being cowards.
I feel like someone is finally standing up to the bullying that I've endured for my entire adult life.

Put a sock in your pie hole, we are tired of the no answers House Democrats. You offer the same old slick just a different color pig.
You and all Democrats are despicable individuals with no redeeming qualities, no not one.

Pelosi claimed that Trump's comments are "disgraceful and disgusting and these comments are racist."
Pelosi is herself is disgraceful and disgusting. She failed to explain HOW Trump's comments were racist; she merely asserted that they were, thus showing herself to be racially biased and seeing something that was not there.
AOC stated that Trump told four sitting members of Congress to quote "go back to their own country." In fact. this is NOT what Trump said, in spite of AOC's claim that she was quoting him.
Trump said they should go back to the place they are from, without mentioning either the members of Congress or using the word "country." Perhaps Trump was referring to dysfunctional areas of the US, such as Detroit, Furgeson Missouri, etc.
Pelosi and AOC live in a deceptive world of propaganda stated as fact. This is deplorable.

Democrats, like our childhood neighborhood bullies, need to be treated the same way. Use their tactics against them and watch them scamper under their mommies skirt just like the neighborhood bully.

Pretty stupid of Nancy. Trump defended her then gave her an
opportunity to support America and at the same time remind
the twits who is in charge. Angry Nancy just could not put
aside her party-first thinking long enough to appear even
halfway reasonable.

Sounds like a rhymes-with-"hit" show. Brought to you by San Fran Nan and her band of merry clowns called Congressional Democrats.

Ernst is a REAL disappointment, across the board. Collins is a hero.
We really should work hard to get rid of Ernst ASAP.

President Trump spoke the truth, and there wasn't a bit of racism involved!!!
Any Republi-can't that jumps on this bandwagon and votes to condemn him must never see a penny of Republican money again!!!!!
The Republican Party needs to grow a pair and start actually supporting President Trump and good conservative Republicans!!!!!

Nothing new under the sun. These are the same hate filled people who spit on our soldiers returning from Vietnam. They are the same hate filled people who looted and set fires to our cities back then. These are the same gang of racists who think that every black man is incapable of taking care of himself and his family and somehow needs their help to decide what to eat and drink and wear.
Sorry I know a racist when I see one and I have seen them all my life in the democrat party, with their Klan hoods and their divide and conquer strategy. I heard this phrase before "America. Love it Or Leave it". Back then it was followed by the Nixon landslide this time there will be the Trump landslide. Americans love their country and are sick and tired of being told we are less than perfect. We are the most generous nation in the history of this planet. We have fought and died for our own freedom and that of half the world too. When we lost in Vietnam, 2 million people were slaughtered when we left, thanks to people like Hanoi Jane who is another self loather. Well, ENOUGH! We are Americans and proud of it. If you are not, then as the President said Leave and don't let the door hit ya!

#7- Exactly. President Trump suggested they go back, help fix, and return to show how it’s done: “So interesting to see progressive Democrat congresswomen who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt, inept anywhere in the world, if they even have a functioning government at all, now loudly and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and most powerful nation on earth, how our government’s to be run. WHY DON’T THEY GO BACK AND HELP FIX THE TOTALLY BROKEN AND CRIME INFESTED PLACES FROM WHICH THEY CAME, THEN COME BACK AND SHOW US HOW IT’S DONE. These places need your help badly. You can’t leave fast enough. I’m sure that Nancy Pelosi would be very happy to quickly work out free travel arrangements.”
It seems Democrats refuse to recognize that Presidents of the United States have the same protections of the U. S. Constitution as all other American citizens, including freedom of speech.
Nancy Pelosi cited Scripture’s “Good Samaritan” parable this past Sunday; as a refresher, there is a Commandment “to not bear false witness against thy neighbor.” Distortions, deceptions, unfounded accusations from any source constitute “false witness.”

This may have been Nana’s worst day. Four mouthy ingrates elected by inner city dumbbells have pushed Nancy into a spot where she had to defend them — right after they called her names.
Nancy asked for all this. She wouldn’t put aside her petty revenge politics
for the good of the country. She cares more about her political party’s power than the well being of our nation in the future.

The effort by U. S. House Representative Doug Collins (R-GA) to have Nancy Pelosi’s words taken down in defense of President Trump is sincerely appreciated. President Trump’s vision and courage are to be commended rather than condemned. To quote President George Washington, “Few men have virtue to withstand the highest bidder.” And to reinforce President Trump’s straightforward rhetoric, President Abraham Lincoln said it well: “To stand in silence when they should be protesting makes cowards out of men.” President Trump refuses to be silenced when it comes to his patriotism. Godspeed, Mr. President.
