Nancy Pelosi tried to throw a lifeline to Rep. Adam Schiff, insisting the Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee “did not” make up a phone call between President Trump and Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Schiff undeniably fabricated quotes as he led off a hearing with acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire last week.
ABC News’ anchor George Stephanopoulus even confronted Schiff over the incident, playing the clip of the disgraceful display and stating, “That was you making up dialogue, putting it in the president’s mouth.”
The California Democrat has since claimed he was simply engaged in a parody.

When Stephanopoulus asked Pelosi if it was fair to lie about what Trump had said, the House Speaker gave it a thumbs up.
“I want the American people to know what that phone call was about. I want them to hear, it. So yeah it’s fair,” she said. “It’s sad, but it’s using the president’s own words.”
Either she doesn’t know what a parody is or she’s simply willing to lie to get Schiff off the hook. Either option is eminently possible.
Stephanopoulus, to his credit, called her out saying, “Those weren’t the president’s words, it was an interpretation of the president’s words. They’re saying he made this up.”
“He did not make it up,” Pelosi doubled down.

Republicans have called for Schiff to step down following his utterly contemptible behavior, putting a fabricated phone conversation into the Congressional record.
“Rep. Adam Schiff totally made up my conversation with Ukraine President and read it to Congress and Millions,” the President tweeted on September 27th. “He must resign and be investigated. He has been doing this for two years. He is a sick man!”
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy slammed Schiff for “lying to the American people for years.”
“He is so desperate to damage the president that he literally made up a false version of a phone call. Enough is enough,” McCarthy said before adding, “I have signed a resolution to censure Schiff in the House of Representatives.”
Pelosi’s full-throated defense, including efforts to say Schiff “did not make it up” when he very clearly made it up, is a sign that Democrats are all in on this tactic of fabricating quotes and facts.

No Schiff did not make up the phone call itself, but he did make up over 90% of what was said during that phone call and tried to make Trump look guilty as hell. Schiff needs to resign from the committee and from Congress. He is a DISGRACE!
Even after schiff admitted it was an attempt at parody, this loonie tries to convince America that it was true. Someone should tell her that when one or more person is lying, they should get together and at least try to make themselves more believable. Maybe she's having a reaction to all those botox injections......
I guess if you want to lie and you are confronted, it is ok to say it was just a parody. LOL
Uh, he said he made it up!
Does the 25th amendment extend to the House Speaker? It certainly should.
Patrick Howley is reporting on Paul Pelosi, Jr.'s involvement with a Ukrainian oil and gas scheme. Pelosi's company, Natural Blue Resources, Inc. was charged with fraud in 2014, Pelosi travelled to Ukraine to "promote youth soccer" and is on the board of NRG, which has a large contract with Ukraine's state oil and gas company.
Pelosi is so accustomed to lying, she doesn't even try to keep track of audio recordings and videos that expose her duplicity. This whole thing is a parody. The idea that a sitting U.S. president is not permitted to discuss corruption with his counterpart in the Ukraine (with whom we have a Treaty which obligates him to do so) is so far out in left field, it's not worth Trump's response.
it is in her depends
The old lady is so desperate to hang on to power that the truth is not important to her.
Sorry about that, Pelosi is an exploited geriatric being controlled by the far left wingers of the democrat party. She should be removed from that position for cause.
