Her game show politics don’t help working people. Pelosi dressed in African kente cloth, but forgot George Floyd’s name and fell far short of community demands to defund the police and invest in more effective alternatives to secure public safety. She ripped up Trump’s State of the Union speech, but supported his obscene military budget, expanded his surveillance powers, and approved his corporate bailout plans. Asked about her response to the pandemic, Pelosi talked not about working people who need universal paid sick leave, or rent relief—neither of which she supports—but about her gourmet ice cream collection. Like Trump, she’s basically a reality TV star who governs by theater rather than substance, with predictably bad results.
She’s a real estate tycoon who doesn’t speak for SF. Pelosi has something else in common with Trump: both of them are real estate tycoons born with silver spoons in their mouths to powerful east coast families. Pelosi and her husband are owners of multiple mansions and hotels, worth over $100 million, and investors in many other commercial properties, including one that received a PPP government loan of $1 million. They’ve also participated in select (not publicly available) investment opportunities while Nancy passed laws favoring enterprises in which they’ve invested.
She never stands up to Trump’s bad budgets. Whether it’s his bloated war allotments, his bailouts and tax breaks for billionaires and corporations, or his expansion of spying on U.S. citizens, Nancy Pelosi has come through for our criminal president time after time. And while she likes to brag about having impeached him, she limited the process to the weakest possible case—effectively excusing all of his worst crimes, including his corruption, which has sparked bipartisan concerns and could have removed him from the White House.
We’re doing what no one thought we could, and forcing Pelosi to abandon her long-established positions to support policies she never has before. We’re winning against all odds, but we can’t win in November without you. Can you make a contribution today so we can send Pelosi packing?
She’s waffled on Black Lives Matter and Defunding the Police. Not only has Nancy Pelosi stated she’s against defunding the police (which Minneapolis has already done), but her police reform bill was 10 years behind the times, filled with no-brainers like a chokehold ban, which should have become federal policy back in the Rodney King days. It’s not good enough, and falls short of community demands to defund police. In fact, Pelosi’s latest proposal would further expand police budgets!
But enough about Nancy Pelosi.
I want to sincerely thank you for all your efforts. With your help, we’re spreading the word that after 33 years of blocking change and enabling the GOP, Pelosi must finally go.
We’re happy to help make it happen, alongside you.
Thanks for your support,
Shahid
