REPORT: Pelosi Is Organizing A ‘Coup’ On Key House Committee

Published

After playing a leading role in the effort to force President Biden, 82, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is reportedly aiming to replace another senior member of the Democratic Party as the leading party member on a key house committee.

Pelosi is reportedly leading an effort among House Democrats to replace longtime Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY), 77,  as ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, according to a report from the New York Times. The longtime Democrat leader is keen on replacing Nadler with Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), a far-left radical who sat on the January 6 Committee, which defied House rules when Pelosi refused to allow Republicans to appoint their own representatives, breaking decades of House precedent.

Raskin has also played a key role in the distribution of numerous hoaxes, including the bogus Russian collusion investigation, and most recently suggested that he will be attempting to subvert the 2024 Election results by refusing to certify Trump’s victory. The Maryland Democrat — who has repeatedly labeled Trump and his supporters as “traitors” and “insurrectionists” over a mass trespassing event four years ago — has cited a Civil War era statute in claiming that Trump is ineligible to be president.

“They want to kick it to Congress. So it’s going to be up to us on January 6, 2025, to tell the rampaging Trump mobs that he’s disqualified,” Raskin said during a panel discussion this past summer. “Then we need bodyguards.”

Raskin has yet to formally announce his category, though Nadler is already publicly fighting to keep his job, a potential indicator that the report is accurate.

“As a New Yorker, I have stood up to Donald Trump my entire career,” Nadler wrote to colleagues when announcing his bid for the prominent position. “When he became president, I led the Judiciary Committee’s efforts to hold him accountable for his various abuses of power, culminating in two historic impeachments.”

While Democrats have traditionally allowed senior incumbents to retain their positions, the New York Times is reporting that Pelosi is eager to back Raskin. Current House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-OH) is a staunch ally of President-elect Trump, meaning that Democrat efforts to obstruct House investigations will need to run through the committee.

“Jerry Nadler is a legend in Congress and New York who will inevitably step aside at some point in his political life,” Progressive Change Campaign Committee co-founder Adam Green told the Times. “The question is, Will it be more as a Nancy Pelosi or a Dianne Feinstein?”

House Democrat leaders are reportedly staying neutral for the moment, stating that the caucus “should work its will” in an internal election to
