Speaker Nero Pelosi: Fiddler of the House

Ian Fleming, the legendary creator of James Bond, had a saying:

“Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action.”

Fleming’s wisdom comes to mind as this headline emerges, in this case from Townhall and Fox’s Katie Pavlich.

ICYMI: Nancy Pelosi Just Threatened President Trump With Another Investigation

Katie writes:

In case you missed it over the weekend, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi falsely accused President Trump of “fiddling” around and called for an investigation into his handling of the Wuhan coronavirus crisis.

“President Trump’s denial at the beginning of this was deadly,” Pelosi said during an interview with CNN. “As the President fiddles, people are dying.”

Got that?

The Speaker of the House, who insisted on focusing the country first on Trump-Russia collusion, then impeachment – now wants to stop everything in the middle of the all-hands-on-deck national emergency that is the virus crisis to, yes, investigate the President….again.

“Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action.”

As is always the case with Leftists, they project onto others what they themselves do and say. And in this case, it is crystal clear that throughout this entire crisis Nancy Pelosi has spent her time fiddling while Americans were dying.

Let’s start by going back to this timeline put together by Breitbart’s Joel Pollak:

  • January 11: Chinese state media report the first known death from an illness originating in the Wuhan market.
  • January 15: Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) holds a vote to send articles of impeachment to the Senate. Pelosi and House Democrats celebrate the “solemn” occasion with a signing ceremony, using commemorative pens.
  • January 21: The first person with coronavirus arrives in the United States from China, where he had been in Wuhan.
  • January 23: The House impeachment managers make their opening arguments for removing President Trump.
  • January 23: China closes off the city of Wuhan completely to slow the spread of coronavirus to the rest of China.
  • January 30: Senators begin asking two days of questions of both sides in the president’s impeachment trial.
  • January 30: The World Health Organization declares a global health emergency as coronavirus continues to spread.
  • January 31: The Senate holds a vote on whether to allow further witnesses and documents in the impeachment trial.
  • January 31: President Trump declares a national health emergency and imposes a ban on travel to and from China. Former Vice President Joe Biden calls Trump’s decision “hysterical xenophobia … and fear-mongering.”
  • February 2: The first death from coronavirus outside China is reported in the Philippines.
  • February 3: House impeachment managers begin closing arguments, calling Trump a threat to national security.
  • February 4: President Trump talks about coronavirus in his State of the Union address; Pelosi rips up every page.
  • February 5: The Senate votes to acquit President Trump on both articles of impeachment, 52-48 and 53-47.
  • February 5: House Democrats finally take up coronavirus in the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Asia.


Over at The American Spectator, my colleague Dov Fischer  headlined this: 

The Real Threat to Our Democracy During Coronavirus
Pelosi, Schiff & Co. were too busy dragging the country through impeachment to pay attention to ominous developments in Asia.

And now? In the middle of all things coronavirus, with people literally dying, Pelosi has brought out her fiddle to waste more time when the lives of Americans are literally at stake.

This brings to mind Ian Fleming’s wisdom. Again, it goes like this:

“Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action.”

There was an election in 2016. Pelosi’s party lost. The happenstance began with the Trump-Russia collusion myth. After 2018, the move to impeach began. Twice is a coincidence. Now? Now she says she wants yet another investigation in the middle of all this?

Behold enemy action. In this case that would be a ruthless disregard for the lives of her fellow Americans, all for political purposes.

Somewhere she must be made to answer for this.
