Here's Katrina vanden Heuvel in an email asking me to subscribe to The Nation:
Dear Activist,
When I interviewed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi about her new book, Know Your Power, I asked her the question all of us have been asking for two years: how could she take impeachment "off the table"?
Her answer: she wants Democrats to control the House for many years to come, in order to stop the wealthiest 1% from "sucking the money out of the middle class" and creating a "caste system."
Many progressives disagree with Speaker Pelosi because they believe holding this administration accountable for its staggering abuse of power is essential for preserving our Constitution. They also believe the American people would reward those who defend the Constitution through a fact-based, serious impeachment effort. But at least now we understand Pelosi's long-term vision, and we can argue with her more effectively as a result. . . .
| That wealthiest 1% includes Nancy and her husband, and lot of the other current Democrats in the Congress. When are they resigning so as to break down the caste system? |
