Pelosi is third in line for the presidency not second. That would be VP Harris.

It is not a good thing when standing up for basic human rights as seen as a provocation.
William Bjornson
Of all of the countries who might preach Human Rights to others, the United States is very far down the list. U.S. history is composed of one Human Rights atrocity after another whether domestic or offshore and the arrogant hypocrisy of a person like Pelosi who, for every charge she levels against China, abundant American examples throughout U.S. history can be found if one chooses to acknowledge them. This kind of political grandstanding is actually disgusting and she claims to feel so strongly about FREEDOM yet she opposes the peoples of Donetsk and Luhansk who are seeking FREEDOM from a generally acknowledged corrupt Kyiv government. Such contradiction reveals the hollowness of this senescent professional politician and egocentric troublemaker who doesn't care about the many young lives her actions may put in danger. Time for her to retire and tend a garden rather than making things even more difficult for a not very well thought out American foreign policy and a struggling President. Go home, Nancy!

Pelosi may have provoked China over human rights, but she also used China to make a lot of money, read "Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win"

There was a time when Standing up for Human Rights used to be a Republican as well as a Democratic thing. Then came Don and his insatiable need to grift and have his ego stroked through his tissue tissue-thin skin.
So now Human Rights are just a Democratic thing.

The article was correct. Pelosi is second in line. Harris is first in line. The sitting president is not in line.

And it still is, the big difference is Republicans always believe in peace through strength and not by appeasement or capitulation, that’s the biggest difference between them and the Democrats.
And Pelosi’s excuse is.

Most of the Republicans on here seem to be quite keen on appeasing and capitulating to Putin.
Its almost as if they had 5 years of someone they adore telling them that he was a trustworthy, honest man and they can’t seem to admit to themselves that he might not be.

This administration already did.
No, but Putin confronted him for killing a bunch of his troops in Syria and he said he’ll continue to kill more troops if anything happens to our troops in that country that definitely got Vlad’s attention.

How so? Biden has supplied billions in equipment and expertise.
What has he not done that the Republicans would have?
What would Donald have done?
